NVIDIA may be kicking all kinds of tail on the mobile front with its ubiquitous Tegra 2 chipset, but back on its home turf of laptop and desktop graphics, things aren’t looking so hot. The latest figures from Jon Peddie Research show that the GPU giant has lost 2.5 percentage points of its market share and now accounts for exactly a fifth of graphics chips sold on x86 devices. That’s a hefty drop from last year’s 28.4 percent slice, and looks to have been driven primarily by sales of cheaper integrated GPUs, such as those found inside Intel’s Clarkdale, Arrandale, and most recently, Sandy Bridge processors. AMD’s introduction of Fusion APUs that combine general and graphics processing into one has also boosted its fortunes, resulting in 13.3 percent growth in sales relative to the previous quarter and a 15.4 percent increase year-on-year. Of course, the real profits are to be made in the discrete graphics card market, where NVIDIA remains highly competitive, but looking at figures like these shows quite clearly why NVIDIA is working on an ARM CPU for the desktop — its long-term survival depends on it.

NVIDIA losing ground to AMD and Intel in GPU market share originally appeared on Engadget on Wed, 04 May 2011 08:29:00 EDT. Please see our terms for use of feeds.

Nielsen says that TV ownership in homes has dropped for the first time in 20 years. This year, 96.7 percent of American households have a television set versus 98.9 percent last year. Two possible reasons (and both very believable!): one is that low-income homes may have struggled with the switch to digital sets and the other is that kids who grew up with computers are getting their TV from the Internet as opposed to buying a TV when they move out.

A handful of aeronautics companies are developing a new generation of blimp-like hybrid airships that they hope will provide an air cargo alternative to fuel-guzzling aircraft and revive an industry undermined by the 1937 Hindenburg disaster. Utilizing advancements

in structural design, materials, and engine technology, developers say the new, more durable airships will be able to carry large loads of freight at a fraction of the cost of conventional aircraft — and require significantly less fuel. Initially, the industry will target markets where highways and airports don’t exist — including remote parts of northern Canada and China’s western frontier — before attempting to penetrate more saturated freight markets. Within two years, U.S.-based Lockheed Martin aims to introduce for commercial use its prototype SkyTug, an airship with a 20-ton payload and a range of 1,000 nautical miles, according to a report in The Daily Climate. Unlike the ill-fated Hindenburg, which carried flammable hydrogen, modern airships carry helium. “And if all the engines quit, it won’t come down like an aluminum tube,” said Gil Costin, CEO of Millennium Airship, Inc., a Washington-based firm that aims to launch a fleet of airships by 2020.

Canadians can now “turn the page on the uncertainties and repeat elections of the past seven years,” Stephen Harper said Monday night as voters delivered the Conservative leader his first majority government and brought a dramatic and unpredicted realignment to the country’s political landscape.

Sony Online Entertainment has announced today that the server shutdown they announced yesterday was in response to an internal investigation that has shown that 24.6 million SOE accounts may have been stolen.

Even worse, the hackers apparently got their hands on an outdated database from 2007. That database contains around 12,700 credit / debit card numbers from non-US customers, as well as direct debit records for some customers located in Austria, Germany, Netherlands and Spain.

SOE is planning a to grant customers affected by the shut down 30 days of free game time, as well as one day for each days the servers remain down. They also are working on what they call a “make good” plan for those who play SOE MMOs on PS3. The press release also says that SOE is going to “provide a complimentary offering to assist users in enrolling in identity theft protection services and/or similar programs.”

It seems like Sony can’t catch a break right now. If you’re one of those affected, you should address this right away. If you need more information on the breach, or want to see exactly what info is believed to be compromised, you can visit www.soe.com/securityupdate.
