Sixty-four-bit computing is here and available to systems builders now. Although recent advances in 32-bit processors have been impressive, the idea of data coursing through 64-bit wide registers at ...

COMMENTARY--Unlike most areas of the technology business, 64-bit computing has somehow remained immune to the forces of commodity competition. Most 64-bit systems have historically been tied to ...

Hi everyone! Have you heard of the brand new 8-bit computer built from (mostly) off-the-shelf parts called Commander X16 made by a team of people under The 8-Bit Guy (David Murray)? If so what are ...

IT is rediscovering a simple but nearly forgotten principle: Throughput and capacity are everything. It hardly matters how fast the processor is if, like a Ferrari in city traffic, it bogs down every ...

Homebrew 8-bit computers tend to have fairly limited displays, often one or more seven-segment displays and an array of LEDs to show the values of RAM or perhaps some other states of the computer.

Although AMD and Apple are hot on the trail of 64-bit chips for desktops, Intel won't go down that path for years, say top researchers at the company. Michael Kanellos is editor at large at CNET ...

Eric Foote is considering 64-bit Windows servers for his growing base of 4,500 users. But he’s in no big rush to make the shift from 32-bit computing. His first target application is Presentation ...

We’ve often thought that it must be harder than ever to learn about computers. Every year, there’s more to learn, so instead of making the gentle slope from college mainframe, to Commodore 64, to IBM ...

A cryostat from a quantum computer stands during a press tour of the Leibniz Computing Center in 2022. Qubit is a key term in one of the most buzzy areas of technology: quantum computing. Qubits are ...

QuEra Computing, launched by physicists at Harvard and MIT, is trying a different quantum approach to tackle impossibly hard computational tasks. At long last, physicists from Harvard and MIT have ...
