Just hooking mine up right now ;)

MICHAEL FEY, a German man of god, has hooked up a notebook and a washing machine in the most unlikely of causes.

To make beer.

Why he can't just pop on down to the local equivalent of Tesco's and buy his beer like anyone else is a total mystery, but presumably he's doing it because it can be done.

Fey has a diagram and pictures on his web site that show how this miracle of technology has come to pass.

You can see pictures and the diagrams over at his web site linked below.

We expect the chip to launch at a core clock of 400 MHz with DDR II speeds to match. It will incorporate DirectX 9.1 features, which is great if you're going to keep the card for at least two years, but don't expect to see any games written for it released for at least a year.

ATI will brand the chip the Radeon 9900 Pro, and the card will be equipped with 128 MB memory while supporting 256MB configurations for its partners. They will use 10 layer PCBs for the graphics cards. The 128MB variations will be priced around the ?400 mark. Lower bin parts will be sold through ATI's partners at a lower speed for less. A 350W power supply would be recommended if you are using a hyperthreading P4 system.
