JMQ & INTEL - EXCLUSIVE GIG/COMPETITION
Hi everyone, I found this today at Funkin.com...

Columbia records (UK) have sent a message to their mailing list which includes an announcement that Jamiroquai and Intel are doing some joint promotion - including an in-store appearance and exclusive gig. The information in the email is as follows:


Intel Exclusive Gig Competition

Jay Kay will be making a number of personal appearances around London in the coming months to promote desktops and laptops powered by Intel® Core™2 Duo Processors with PC World. He is due to make an in-store appearance in November and there will be the opportunity to win tickets to an exclusive gig. Full details are not yet available but to find out about Intel® Core™2 Duo processors please click here and for details about the promotion check out the website.

It is not known if the exclusive gig is the same gig that tickets can be won for in a promotion by UK clothing store USC. Details on the USC competitiona re as follows...

According to an email sent to members of a mailing list for UK clothing supplier USC, Jamiroquai will be performing a gig at the Islington Academy in London on 16 November. A competition is being run by USC to win tickets to the gig as well as winning a "replica Jay Kay hat".

buffaloman_R Hello, buffaloman_R

Rolling Eyes Sorry for being somewhat "quiet" postwise, colds aren't my friend lately Rolling Eyes . Anyway, yes, I do agree, Jamiroquai & Computers aren't very good together, I mean, who would want JK at your demonstration for your new comp product asking every 3 seconds, "What does this thingie do?"..."What does this button do?"...Hehe! Smile But insightful spotting Brother JamFan, maybe the first "Space Cowboy" like Intel commerical is just one of a series of new commericals inspired by Jamiroquai Music....I would die to see those flimsy dancers try dodging JK's exotic cars as they come careening at them in a "Cosmic Girl Video" commerical treatment Smile! Thanks for listening and of course....AMD RULES! Peace!

Sincerely,
JamiroFan2000

Sounds to me like they have enough already! Seriously, I can't tell you how much I'm enjoying reading through all this geek-speak.

Can you guys and your computers get yourselves a room...? LOL

If you read the second page of that topic you would have understood:

I (almost one month ago) wrote:
1 more Space cowboy tribute from Intel:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZtCsxknt5k

and VERY offtopic (as a reply to myself in the last post on this topic & for people who thinks the same that I USED to think)

I wrote:

I had a long talk with certified technic,who knows a lot about computers, processors and motherboards, and he told me why INTEL Core 2 Duo processors are thousand times better than the AMD X2 ones: because of its unic cache, its 1066mhz Front side bus, and a lot of things more Cool .
AMD simply lies about the GHZ of their preocessors, in fact, If you want to run an AMD X2 3800+ at (3 ghz at least, because it says 3800) you need a cooling sistem of the size of your bedroom; another problem of AMD Dual core processors are that for a lot of programs its cores run unsynchronized, so maybe one of them is at 100% and the other isn't running at all, so you must select one core, or install official patches, that don't assure the problem will fix at all. That's why AMD's actions on the stock-market went down so bad, and now AMD is trying to reach the top again by a possible join with ATI Rolling Eyes .

SO, if you're planing in buy a new computer, go for a Core 2 Duo, they work very very good, e.g the cheapest model, the E6300 runs at REAL 1.86ghz each core.

I feel like an idiot. LOL
Sorry Intel Smile


The AMD thing I said was talking without having rela knowledge...
AND I also thought that AMD X2 processors were THE CPU's but I was wrong. AMD won the battle against Pentium Processors, but the Core tecnology developed by the new Intel cpus (Core Duo, Core 2 Duo, Core 2 Extreme, etc) is thousandas better than the x2 from AMD.
Everybody says AMD is good at games, well everybody had problems running Need for speed most wanted with X2 processors, because of the unsinchronization thing I wrote above....

Anyway...

BTW Space Clav, that Mac must be the computer God uses to run the "Life" software, LOL...
