The 7460 if it is released early next year uses the HiP6 SOI process (ie. 180nm process). The performance gains don't come from any reduction in die size...

Brains are relatively powerful but there's no question integrating them with a computer would be beneficial and no question that a human brain could be improved. There are lots of ifs and buts and a...

In 9 I found a noticeable improvement over 4. It was worthwhile to me for that alone even though it isn't huge.

I use a touch screen fairly often and to be perfectly honest I would see it as an unnecessary expense for an iMac.
Touch screens really aren't that wonderful or important for the average consumer....
