Bigfoot Networks unveil a network card aimed at lowering lag in online games...
Texas-based Bigfoot Networks has today unveiled their LLR (Lag and Latency Reduction) technology in a bid to reduce lag in online games. The technology, based on a network processor, is said to work by reducing the pressure on a machine's CPU, which can then focus on improving the frame rate of the game.
"LLR was designed exclusively to fight Lag in video games. Simply put, LLR will make game play more fun because gamers who buy products powered by LLR Technology will have lower latency, and less Lag," says Harlan Beverly, inventor, co-Founder, and CEO of Bigfoot Networks. "In addition, gamers who buy products with LLR Technology will have a competitive advantage in online games over those who choose traditional networking products."
It'll be interesting to see how successful Bigfoot's LLR technology will prove to be, especially with ever increasing net speeds and of course the continuous treadmill of PC power. Lag certainly doesn't seem to be as big a problem now as it was a few years ago and it'll be tough to convince gamers that they need yet another card in their PCs.
We'll have more news shortly...

No way to edit but talking of typo's, surely not surley.

Curious, is that a typo?

Should surley read as.

Actually Commodore is indeed a group of people with the name, but unlike previous restarts, this small group actually does pay tribute to the old c64 heritage they hold C64 parties and contests (demo's) and do work with the old enthausiasts. from what I've seen its a small group who really are going for it and i wish them luck

The Spec on the system will make any game run at full setting with ease but the price tag has got to be in the $4000 range,

Hey anonymous that supposedly attended a trade show in the 80's: You haven't learned how to type, spell, or use better grammar in 20 years? And we're supposed to get something out of that garbage post? Plus, you DO realize that Commodore is, and has been for a long time now, a name. And that's all. The name has been passed around a little bit, but none of the same people run anything Commodore related. Any new Commodore we see will be in name only. Like Atari.

Having attended a computer show in london in the early 1990's ('big boy barry' was there to give you a idea of the dates) the commodore execs had a ? and answer section. i asked them ? about there new wonder machine and pointed out that there new machines price put it in competition with PC's. The level of arrogance displayed from them stunning they laughed at the thought that a humple pc could be a match for there super new machine and that the much higher pricing(taken the machines out off there price range for most amiga users at that time) will be ok and we will all buy one!!!. If commodore are to come back and the arrogance is still there i see bankrupt again!!
