iPad 2 graphics capability

Just stumbled across an awesome preview of a game on how capable the iPad 2 is with games/graphics.

It looks really good for a portable device! In my own opinion it looks as good or better than console graphics (definitely the wii's).

What do you think?

Compare an iPad to an Android tablet. You will understand why everyone would go for the iPad.

Apple products are overpriced but it's totally worth it because its not all about the hardware its the software as well and this is where Apple is excellent at. I've never had a hiccup with my iPhone 4 and my previous iPod's.

Macbook's are really simple and easy to use, they're great for daily usage tasks + media. Now compare them to overpriced Alienware computers they are overpriced as well but they are also crap and you can build similar spec for a fraction of the price which is just plain bonkers but you can not do this with Apple products because their software is dedicated to its hardware which is worth the cost.

I love how mobile technology is advancing so quickly I cant wait for the PSP2 and iPhone 6 (skipping iPhone 5 because of 2 year contract).

I dunno why!

I took Mac OS X years to implement ASLR (randomisation of memory address to prevent exploitation).

Linux on the other hand was already secured, as the technology was already implemented years ago.

That's in the past. We are talking about the present and future here
