Every Thursday we have our weekly staff meeting to go over what articles everyone is working on and when they are going to be ready for publication. Normally, after every Thursday I have a pretty good idea of when things are going to be published...except in hectic months like April.
I've got another NDA this Friday (nothing huge), but because of it (and the fact that the hardware for it has yet to arrive) there's going to be a bit of shuffling on our part. So here's how my schedule is looking right now:
Tomorrow - ATI Theater 550 Review
Wednesday - nForce4 SLI Intel Edition Review (including ultracoolextremeeditionAnandNCQ tests)
Thursday - Not totally sure yet, possibly Splinter Cell guide
Friday - I'll tell you then
Meanwhile, this week will be particularly busy for me as I'll be benchmarking for something particularly exciting that goes live next week. Jason has already finished his server tests on the aforementioned very interesting item, now it's my turn with it. Afterwards, it gets sent off to Derek for a workstation look. So if anyone has anything they'd like to see in an upcoming review, please let your voice be heard :)
20 mins until 24, so I've got a bit of writing time left that I'm going to make the most of.
Take care.

Could we PLEASE (pretty please...!) see comparisons to Nocoma in 64bit using 4+ GBs of Ram??? I'm especially interested in the I/O response...Fingers crossed...many thnks!

Anand could you please have a look at this thread:http://forums.anandtech.com/messageview.aspx?catid...
This poor guy was asking this big question a long time ago: "athlon 64: why is it's poor multitasking ignored/downplayed?" and as far as I followed the story he didn't get an answer. Maybe you could finally give him one, by trying his simple multitasking scenarios?

hi. i wannt to see many, i say many video encoding bench (virtual dub with divx, tmpgenc, real media producer) for opterons...that would be very nice...and it will be great if u just have 1 opteron cpu vs dual-core opteron cpu vs 2x dual core opteron setup...so people can see what diference will be, from going from 1 cpu to 2 and to 4 cpu..thanks...

How about a review of Apple's new "tiger" OS on a mac mini?Andrew Guyton - Tuesday, April 12, 2005 - link
When you get any solid dates on any BIG NDAs (like R520, etc), please hint at them in here. I'm really, really looking forward to that.smn198 - Tuesday, April 12, 2005 - link
Hi AnandI was way down at post number 52 to your blog entry titled ‘thoughts’ last week. With all of the comments to the effect of ‘I don’t encode videos while I game’ and ‘everything I have running whilst gaming is idle’ I decided to see how much of an impact leaving my normal programs open had on gaming. I had ~20% performance drop with programs such as iTunes, IE, Firefox and MS Word running. I’m not sure how to explain the results but I would be interested to see how leaving a few similar programs open when I game effects performance on dual core as opposed to on a single core.
Thanks!

Weepee! An ATI Theater 550 review!!!! :)Illissius - Tuesday, April 12, 2005 - link
Well, overclocking info would be nice... I'm quite aware that it's (a) probably just an engineering sample and (b) overclocking varies from chip to chip anyways, but some general idea of how much headroom it has would be nice. If no other reason than to see how much the heat/power picks up at higher speeds... according to an article I saw somewhere a Venice core A64 when overclocked from 2 to 2.8GHz at stock voltage ~doubled its heat output. Which isn't very nice.Davediego - Tuesday, April 12, 2005 - link
could you compare the dual core systems from amd and intel not only to each other, but also to comparative dual processor systems?Doug - Tuesday, April 12, 2005 - link
Hi Anand,This is an off-topic question, but oh well. How come you are the one handling many of the reviews these days? I remember couple months ago, Kris K., Derek W., Wesley F., and Evan L. were regular contributors to the articles here. What's going on? Did you just fired a few people? ;)
