G.Skill International one of the best in providing highly overclockable memory modules for overclocking enthusiasts for many years, but in recent times there have been some quality out of the box memory modules.This week G.Skill introduced what can be considered as the world's highest-performance memory modules.

The new Trident-series DDR3 memory modules from G.Skill can work at 2.50GHz with CL9 11-9-28 timings and 1.65V voltage. The new 2GB memory modules are shipped in 4GB kits and are specifically designed for Intel Core-i7 860 and 870 processors as well as P7P55D-E Deluxe and P7P55D-E Evo motherboards from Asustek Computer. Competing offerings from other manufacturers can work on broader set of platforms, however, they can "only" hit 2.40GHz clock-speed with 1.65V voltage.

Tony Chou, senior research and development manager at G.Skill comments

G.Skill is dedicated to continuously developing the best performance memory modules on the market, to satisfy the demands of extreme overclockers and gamers.

We are proud of the continual milestones we are still setting in the memory industry, and we believe the collaboration with Asus brings the best technology synergy for future product development.

Pricing of the dual-channel 2.50GHz memory kit could be at a skyrocket price.But enthusiasts who are not willing to go the extra mile would prefer to install 8GB of not-so-extreme memory rather than 4GB of 2500MHz DDR3.So the sales figures and the future is a question mark for the time being !

Multi-tasking on iPhone 3G and iPod touch 2G enabled

Posted: 15 Apr 2010 03:03 PM PDT

In the iPhone 4.0 conference Apple had announced that there wont be any multi tasking support for iPhone 3G and iPod touch 2G, but from the tweet from the iPhone dev states that multi tasking can be enabled in iPhone 3G by just changing the switch to true.Now isnt that awesome.You only need to set multitasking = TRUE on the capabilities plist in SB(N82AP.plist). In later tweets he confirmed that it hasn't been tested on iPhone 3G yet.

In case you want to know what is N82AP.plist, it is one of the two main files in the system directory which contains all the main functions of the OS which can be tweaked.the maint reason why Apple doesnt want to enable multi tasking functionality is the low amount of RAM.Enthusiasts can try out this in the future.

S Somasegar, Senior Vice President – Developer Division at Microsoft

In the new versions of Visual Studio, .NET, and Silverlight we've packed hundreds of new features, new functionalities and benefits that improve the development lifecycle from design to deployment. This is the biggest tools release we have put up so far.

When we have a phenomenal product everything else flows from that. Using the Visual Studio 2010, .NET Framework 4 tools, developers have a way to where they want to be and they also have a powerful tool to easily create compelling user experiences both on and off the Web.

He also adds

In the past, we would first do the U.S. launch and then go to other locations. This time, we decided we will launch on April 12th in all locations. We will follow the Sun.The goal is to physically touch a million developers or more through the launch event.

India is the second largest developer population in the world with approximately 1.5 million developers compared to 3.2 million developers in the US.The rate at which the developer community in India is growing should soon see it on the top. In the next 5-7 years the number of developers in India will exceed that in the U.S.

Visual Studio 2010, .NET Framework 4 is powerful tool for any developer in today's world. Visual Studio 2010 is designed keeping in mind today's developer. Indian developers create software for everybody in the world. In a way our developers are core of innovation for the world. India is where the future is. Keeping this in mind we are launching this product that is relevant to them," says Moorthy Uppaluri, General Manager, Developer Partner Evangelism, Microsoft India.
