Skype and Wal-Mart have a retail deal, I guess now you can get VoIP at those "low" prices. Microsoft says that Open Source OS's violates 235 of its patents, another day another lawsuit I guess. AMD needs something to get out of its rut and has given out some details on its Phenom quad core processor.

Later this year, AMD will unveil its Phenom processors in quad-core and dual-core iterations. Two quad-core chips will be available in the second half of the year, the Phenom FX and the Phenom X4, and a dual-core chip based on a similar design called the Phenom X2 will also appear by the end of the year.
