There is NO way that's a high end gaming PC doing the first demo. if that were true then the cloud would have to have at least 10x the power of an i5, which is bullshit, and can't be possible.

Unless 10 i5's were within the server infrastructure...
-
I highly doubt that. They're not reliable enough chips to be used as large server equipment for a major network. And Xeon chips are more suited to different tasks.
-
I agree. Just illustrating this guys blinding intelligence.
-
And by "blinding intelligence", you mean "despicably incorrect assumptions". Right? Because high-end PCs are damn awesome.
-
Absolutely!
-
there is NO network card on the PLANET that's capable of streaming that much power all at once.
-
Aggregate Ethernet....
-
again, there's no way the CLOUD could pull it off, it's literally impossible to pull off wirelessly.
-
Who said anything about wireless?
-
are you dense? the CLOUD is a wireless service, you know, the thing that Microsoft was claiming had that power?
-
Lolwireless? Cloud computing isn't wireless. Wifi is wireless, to an extent.
-
lolwut Go Wikipedia cloud.
-
again, any networking card can NOT receive the data on the scale that microsoft is claiming. the only way for Azure to achieve the levels in computing that they're advertising would be a direct connection, which would be impossible for the mass market that they want, Microsoft can put out as much data as they want, but no matter what they're trying to do, no wireless networking card currently on the planet can receive the computations at the rate that they are trying to output, and certainly not on a global scale. that is what I'm saying. if that IS the power 10 i5s at once being output to that computer, it sure as hell isn't being done wirelessly.
-
Yeah, so what? Wireless spread is capped at 1.3gB anyway...
-
[quote]Yeah, so what? [/quote] this is poinless as the fact that this is a direct connection makes the whole demo moot, and making Microsoft full of shit when they're advertising the Azure Cloud..

Dude you must be trolling. There is no wireless connection required. Ever.
