Peer-to-peer has benefits... and cons. It's not a magical cure-all. How would _you_ implement a secure P2P where you (and only you) can rapidly change content (dynamic web pages) and control who has access to authorized pages? What abo

Gmail on my AMD FX-8370 at 4 GHZ with 32GB RAM (and 60 MBit connection) takes... 5 seconds to load. Gmail (HTML)... takes 0.5 seconds. (And about the same on my Netbook with a Celeron) Guess which one I use? It's like the entire world

I'm hoping that changes as they improve yields / gain more commercial adoption. This is "Intel" we're talking about. I'm no expert on the industry, but from what I recall Intel is the king of fabs.
