Open ID

Open ID

OpenID starts with the concept that anyone can identify themselves on the Internet the same way websites do-with a URI (also called a URL or web address). Since URIs are at the very core of Web architecture, they provide a solid foundation for user-centric identity.
The first piece of the OpenID framework is authentication -- how you prove ownership of a URI. Today, websites require usernames and passwords to login, which means that many people use the same password everywhere. With OpenID Authentication (see specs), your username is your URI, and your password (or other credentials) stays safely stored on your OpenID Provider (which you can run yourself, or use a third-party identity provider).

Competitor CPU – Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700

Multi-Cores processors are becoming more and more a Standard in Home PC’s and a must in Gaming PC’s. Soon Octi-Core PC’s can be a Standard, they are already selling motherboards that support Octi or 8 Core processors.
Though the benefit of the Intel Core 2 is better in performance now, the AMD Athlon has more potential later. The motherboards that support 2X2 Dual Core will support AMD’s coming Quad Core CPU’s when they come out. That being said, you can invest now to get an Octi-Core home PC.
