Who Likes April?

Post by Apoptosis »

April starts tomorrow and I am already hating it. Computer Enthusiasts are going to love April, well parts of April at least. I guss some people have to pay taxes by April 15th, but don't get me started on that. (I'm still working on them)

Computer Enthusiasts will have plenty of Juicy information thrown at them next month. As reported around the web AMD, Intel, nVidia, and ATI all have chipsets or processors OR BOTH coming out in the near future. We are of course under NDA with all the forementioned companies and can't say anything more than what is known on the net already.

Companies like Corsair are coming out with new memory parts. OCZ is coming out with a whole new product line (other than PSU's and Memory) Kingston is looking at some good NAND Flash memory parts. PMI has some consumer electronic gadgets coming out. Mushkin just launched their DDR1 blue c2 modules with UT IC's on them (Only At Fry's). ASUS will have the ever popular CT-479 on the shelves in April. Then around E3 in a couple more months we will have all sorts of other new products available. The one I am looking forward to the most is the next gen hard drives that I can't talk about since I am also under NDA with those companies. HDD's are a major bottle neck in PC speed and these upcoming drives hopefully will boost speeds nicely. I am going to E3 for the first time and that is the major reason why.

My posts around here will not be as often, but that doesn't mean I'm not here. I'm busy working, benchmarking, holding the upcoming legit workshop, writing articles, editing articles, and then talking to the 100+ companies we work with to stay in the loop.

March was a great traffic month for Legit and we are expecting next month to be the same. Our frequent readers might have noticed our server had some issues in March as we put some heavy load on them. We fixed some errors in our coding and since the fix the site hasn't been down once. Although I can now restart the server through the phone now if need be.

Like I said April is going to be great and keep an eye on Legit Reviews.

In closing here is an interesting image.

I hate April because I wake up every morning with my head feeling like a brick, my nose running like a faucet, and my eyes itching like I've got poison ivy on my retina.

April 15th brings tears to my eyes as in 1989, 96 fellow Liverpool Football Club supporters perished at a game of football.... This wasn't caused by a riot, a fire, a plane crash or some act of god. It was caused by the police filing supporters into a stand which already had twice as many people as it should have. Those at the front of the stand were crushed against metal fencing and never stood a chance of survival, men, women but mostly children died. My neighbours sons were fortunate enough to survive but still bare the mental scars. Yes I hate April as well...

(Sorry to be of a somber and serious nature.)
