Add Directx11 to Windows Vista
Last Updated on Sunday, 29 November 2009 09:39 Written by Naota Thursday, 22 October 2009 11:51
Recently Microsoft has released Directx11. Unfortunately this update has been limited to Windows 7 users but Microsoft has already completed the Windows Vista version and has published it under Windows Update. However, they have hidden this update from all users so you must activate it.
I have posted directions on how to add Directx11 to Windows Vista. This method is completely safe and does not involve any hacking. All you have to do is run a simple script to make it visable. Click here to learn “How to add Directx11 to Windows Vista” courtesy of Tomshardware.

That’s right you heard me. As part of the celebration of Windows 7, the Burger King will be offering a Windows 7 Whopper with SEVEN Patties. This costs 777 yen, which is equivalent to $8.50.

Looks kind of awkward right? This is no joke and is a real photo. I don’t know about you, but I am a little disappointed they didn’t offer this product in the United States.

Moving Rendering to the Cloud

If you haven’t heard of cloud computing by now, I’m wondering how you managed to find this site since it’s a buzzword that’s on every news site BEFORE this humble little geek news blog. If you have, you know how much the concept has been taking off in the IT industry and computing world in general.
Nvidia intends to take it a step further. Their latest move takes the rendering process for images, moves it off the client-side and puts it on a series of high-quality servers that process the raw numbers and streams back the image data to whatever device requested it, supposedly in near real-time. At the very least, they claimed it would be able to render:
“images of photorealistic scenes at rates approaching an interactive gaming experience”.
