In Hindsight: Tech Quotes That Got the Future Right and Wrong
The computing industry has always run on prediction, rumor, and occasionally spectacular overconfidence. Long before every roadmap became a secret and every patent a weapon, engineers, executives, and founders were often surprisingly candid about where they thought technology was headed. Sometimes they were right. Sometimes they were very, very early. And sometimes they gave us the kind of quote that only gets better with age. As the pace of tech accelerated, so did the appetite for bolder claims.
Struggling to refi/HELOC Investment Condo in Charlotte
Hey BP Community -- I'm in a bit of a weird situation where my 3bd/2.5ba, two-story condo in NoDa has appreciated $70k since July 2019 when I bought it. I no longer live in NC and turned this into an investment property which is cash flowing quite well. I was hoping to pull out cash to put towards renovating a live in flip, or do a HELOC for this but it seems that no lenders are interested in lending on a property like this. Has anyone run into similar situations or know where else I can look?
The Rise, Fall and Renaissance of AMD
AMD is one of the oldest designers of large scale microprocessors and the subject of polarizing debate among technology enthusiasts for nearly 50 years. Its story makes for a thrilling tale -- filled with heroic successes, foolhardy errors, and a close shave with rack and ruin. Where other semiconductor firms have come and gone, AMD has weathered many storms and fought numerous battles, in boardrooms, courts, and stores.
History of the Microprocessor and the Personal Computer, Part 5
1996 and Beyond: New Frontiers Computing Goes Mainstream, Mobile, Ubiquitous The microprocessor made personal computing possible by opening the door to more affordable machines with a smaller footprint. The 1970s supplied the hardware base, the 80s introduced economies of scale, while the 90s expanded the range of devices and accessible user interfaces. The new millennium would bring a closer relationship between people and computers.
History of the Microprocessor and the Personal Computer, Part 4
1984 - 1996: Consolidation of Power The Mighty Wintel Empire The infamous quote "There is no reason anyone would want a computer in their home" by Digital Equipment Corporation founder Ken Olsen in 1977 is a perfect study of the prevailing corporate attitude towards personal computing in the early years.

Its story makes for a thrilling tale. We'll revisit the company's past, examine the twists and turns in the path to the present, and wonder at what lies ahead. Permalink to review. https://www.techspot.com/article/2043-amd-rise-fall-revival-history/ #2 Reading this on an AMD 3800x / AMD 5700 xt. Last time I had an AMD was 2006.
The History of the Microprocessor and the Personal Computer
The personal computing business as we know it owes itself to an environment of enthusiasts, entrepreneurs and happenstance. Before PCs, the mainframe and minicomputer business model was formed around a single company providing an entire ecosystem; from building the hardware, installation, maintenance, writing the software, and training operators. This approach would serve its purpose in a world that seemingly required few computers.
The History of the Modern Graphics Processor
The evolution of modern graphics began with the introduction of the first 3D add-in cards in 1995. This development coincided with the widespread adoption of 32-bit operating systems and the affordability of personal computers. The graphics industry that existed before the PC was largely dominated by more prosaic 2D architecture. Graphics boards were known for their chip's alphanumeric naming conventions and huge price tags.
The Most Memorable Overclocking-Friendly CPUs Original
Enthusiasts have been pushing the limits of silicon for as long as microprocessors have existed. Early overclocking endeavors involved soldering and replacing crystal clock oscillators, but that practice quickly evolved into adjusting system bus speeds using motherboard DIP switches and jumpers.
