Out of curiosity.... Is there a strange reason to prevent Intel from doing so?

Just a generic question. How are vertical SSDs mounted inside a computer case? Do they require a new case or can they fit in an older case? Do they require special mounting hardware? I'm seeing more of them offered for sale. I've never owned one before, so I'm having trouble visualizing where...

(25 november 2016 I tried to post this, but somehow it failed, maybe too many newsgroups or non-existing ones, today 1 december 2016 I try again). (Meanwhile the strange "power on for 10 seconds then shutdown cycles has reoccured". It now takes 2 or 3 attempts to start my PC ?! (The first...

What happened to them? I remember they were available to consumers decades ago. 3D printers cannot replace a 2D plotter! :)

OK, one may presume, for embed or dedicated applications. Applications you can reach around and stick your hand into for, say, a fanny-packed handheld device;- I haven't one, actually, to speak of, but rather a simplistically engineered, psycho acoustically-chipped, shirt-pocket radio. ...

Think SAFETY, FIRE-FIGHTING and DAMAGE CONTROL!

Got aholt of a Sandisk's Human Representative. Upscale, nice kind of guy, for a Middle/Far Eastern representative, although not especially technically minded -- unable to resolve, technically, what's going on here . . . Working in the latest and smallest generation of MicroCard (thumbnail sized)...

It will still be 14 nm! Must be getting difficult to shrink the buggers and get enough working to make a profit. 10 nm will be for portable devices - I guess they will be expensive. Maybe Intel are betting that consumers are dumping desktops for stuff like Surface. Looks like the traditional CPU...

Tried another card in a 32G variant. Another Sandisk. Appears slower MODE 4 cards take to PC OS formatting utilities, as recognized as a drive, through a USB adaptor layer. Faster cards, at least those Sandisk offerings I did try, do not. A PC format subsequently causes the card to fail. ...

This is related to the broken computer I mentioned previously that I'm trying to fix for a friend... The computer had a 2 TB drive that had failed. I think I've got that under control (I'll post about that later.) It also has a 16 GB solid state drive whose purpose is mysterious to me. As it...

I want to keep use oldschool DB15 Joystick which I've 2 of them. Both is not working if I plug into x64 system. The blue screen parity errors come out and the system halt.

Browsing through AMD's recent press releases, I saw that their Radeon Instinct is aimed at AI. Nvidia had earlier made the P100 graphics card supposedly for AI. I can't see anything special about P100 except for a lot of memory and the ability for many of them to work side-by-side. AMD apparently...

A 4K UHD monitor I bought as a Christmas present to myself is on the way from Newegg. My video card supports the native 3840x2160 resolution. Both video card and monitor have HDMI and DisplayPort connectors. Which should I choose? I'm thinking DisplayPort, but haven't been able to find any...
