Re: Re: [ql-users] QL2004
One further thought inspired by a private email. How do we do feedback? I can bring a digital camera if that is of any use. Pictures will be no problem as several people will have cameras including me. I am just wondering if anyone would be interested in writing about various items. Even if I am unable to set up a feedback website, I'm sure QL-Today would appreciate the material. Most certainly. As I'm not attending myself, I asked Jochen to try to arrange something with someone he knew would be attending. A major event like QL2004 deserves coverage since only a small percentage of QLers attend shows, so the only contact much of the readership have with these events is via our reports. I anyone is prepared to write a bit about the event for us, please do let Jochen or myself know.

[ql-users] QL Speed Index
(Eros Forenzi) QL Speed Index of QPC v3.1 running on different platforms (just for your curiosity) 2460 (24 times faster than Gold Card) Centrino 1,6 MHz (ASUS Notebook) Win XP 2562 P4 3200 MHz W2000 2733 Athlon 2600+ (2100 MHz) Win XP 1983 Celeron 2600 MHz W2000 1447 Athlon 1000 MHz W2000 628 Celeron 550 MHz (IBM notebook Win ME) I have already posted a few months ago some of the results. It seems that Athlon processor are very well suited for QPC2 (vs Intel ones). However the new Centrino for notebook gives excellent results (considering also it's a CPU devoted to notebook).

P.S. Must stop boasting about my hijacking activities. If this list is still monitored by Echelon I could find myself in Guantanomo Bay instead of Eindhoven on Saturday. With some of the bad publicity airlines here have had recently, you might end up in Cuba, your luggage in New Zealand, your QL in Eindhoven.No help needed from Echelon!!!
