"On Wednesday during the launch of its new Sonoma Centrino Mobile, Intel put on a demonstration running a video game on a laptop. It matched the performance of a high-end Pentium 4 desktop running the same game, declared Intel. The contenders were a laptop sporting a 2.13 GHz Pentium M processor, 1GB RAM, and the Alviso chipset versus a desktop with a 3.6 GHz Pentium 4 with hyperthreading, 1GB RAM, and the Grantsdale chipset. Is this a testament to how far the Pentium Mobile architecture has come, or a sad comment on the clockspeed-pushing design of the Pentium 4?"

Heh - may I suggest a real cpu? Something like an AMD Athlon64?
Forget the Intel crap!

Describing my life is rather easy, at the moment.

5:30 pm Due to the winter, sun has already said good night to our half of the planet. Finally, it's time for me to wake up. Usually I stay in bed for another 30 minutes till I can convince myself that the world is bearable without a pillow, too.

6:00 pm I power on my monitor and stare at all the pixels for at least 10 minutes. Spontaneously I notice that over 1000 new mails have arrived in the meantime. Now, I will spent the next two hours with reading CVS logs and mailing lists.

8:00 pm Since I still haven't found some time to read my email I decide to delete all of it, instead of fighting spam.

8:01 pm A pity that I expected some important eMail which is gone forever, now.

8:15 pm Most likely I'm sitting in the train now, on my way to Andz and Stoffl. The iPod keeps my brain alive while I'm curiously observing all these weird humans sitting next to me.

9:30 pm I'm watching TV, at the moment - two bottles of beer and even german commercials seem funny.

11:00 pm Bottles next to me have manifolded, it seems. Now there are four of them. How come?

0:00 am Okay, back in the train on my way home. iPod's even louder than before, since most of the other passengers seem too drunk to care, anyways.

2:00 am Normally I start feeling hungry by that time. I'm just quickly going to finish this piece of sourcecode I started hacking on.

5:00 am Okay, done and commited - in like no time, heh?.

7:00 am God damn it, I forgot about the pizza in the oven...

8:00 am Weak, I hate the dawn. Where is this pillow I mentioned before?!

9:00 am Pillow's my best friend. Some music stream keeps playing in the background while I try to forget the things happening in my head.
