Personally, I'd go with Hive Computing. It's one of those buzzwords in academia and it's interesting to boot.

the inferior earthlings that wear os themed shirts in Wendy's and how the l33ts must put them in their place ?



but serioiusly, you can talk about TCP/IP

Why Ghz doesn't matter. There are a million graphs showing this fact, and even though it may seem like a really easy suject n00bs like your teacher will think its really interesting.

Write it in binary.

I totally saw some dude working at Taco Bell and his name tag had 1337 Haxx0r on it.

that sounds like an awesome topic....i can't find anything on it though, other than one tiny little paragraph that doesn't go into detail at all

And what's even better, you might inform a few morons in your class that an Athlon 64 at a "lousy 1.8GHz" does indeed absolutely bitchify a Celeron 2.6 😛

int iWordsPerPage = 500;
int iPages = 3;

for (int i = 0; i < iPages; i++){
....for (int j = 0; j < iWordsPerPage; j++){
........System.out.print("badger");
....}
}

How about something to do with how Internet message boards have replaced actually doing your own schoolwork?

Do it on seti@home or something. You can rip a lot of quotes from their website, do a thing on boinc and new projects, and there's a lot of people in the DC forum you could talk to.

You know, moderation is good....make sure you include that when speaking about mhz/ghz.

I had one fanboy tell me his workstation could totally work on par with one of my servers here at work for like 1/8th the cost and that I was a moron for justifying that cost. granted, from what I could gather, it was a pretty nice workstation, but there's no way his athlon is gonna whomp
8x3.0ghz Xeons HT -> 16 virtual procs with 8G of RAM.

It's just as fast in MS Word though... 22 wpm is 22 wpm 😛

I would probably do one on bit torrent, seeing as how it is 400,000 times worse than any other file sharing software/infrastructure I've seen in terms of the amount of easily accessible, fully functional, pirated goods.

 

[neonerd]

bump...anyone know any really good sources for the MHz/GHz topic? other than the obvious one

I second this. Look up words like 'Mind uploading' and 'Transhumanism' while you're at it.

 

[neonerd]

Can anyone find any graphs or good sources on the "GHz don't matter" topic??????

[notfred]

Do it on online messageboards.
Actually, just print out this thread and turn it in.
