<h3 class="title">Holy hand grenades Batman!</h3>

<p>Sweet baby Ghandi, looks like an <a href="http://www.hwupgrade.it/articoli/1193/1.html" target="_blank">Italian website</a> got a hold of an engineering sample of AMD's upcoming dual-core chip (basically one chip with two CPUs on it).  Use Google to translate it if you want or just check out the pictures on the second page, they pretty much say it all.  I for one cannot wait.  I'm really pumped to see what the world will be like in 10 years thanks to technology, and it's little hops like this that bring us closer to the stuff we read in books or see in movies.</p>

<p>Oh, and in a blatant attempt for more "points" (I really shouldn't play into this game, but oh well) at work.....Neil Larocca.  There.  Happy?</p>
