Interesting! I got my information from the links below.

Surface colors vary from white carbon monoxide frost (the bright area in the middle image), to dark orange and charcoal black regions in which ultraviolet radiation from the Sun is presumably breaking down methane ice molecules, creating a carbon-rich molasses-colored sludge, and lighter gases which quickly freeze, to create the brighter regions.

I know right? Space travel and exploration is just down right stupefying. The math and physics alone is mind bending. Some of the early pictures are showing Pluto as yellow? That is cool (no pun intended).

I could not agree more with this. Over the past couple of days I tried to actually get into a conversation over some topics. My posts would get a few upvotes and an actual conversation would ensue. Within minutes, the hivemind would find the post and downvote it to oblivion just because they do not like the content. Its ridiculous.

Thank you very much and will do. There actually is one question I had that I have not really looked up yet. Is there a flashy icon that tells you (the user) if you have replies to a post or comment?

This new IBM tech may give us a few more years of real processor innovation before marginal improvements every year become the standard.
This is true and I completely agree. While everyone has heard of Moore's Law, few have heard of Moore's Second Law (or Rock's Law) and this is what people should really be watching. Technology will advance no matter what (even if its just small steps). Its the price tag for that advancement that if gone without some type of check, will leave everyone else in the dust. It will come to years before the average consumer will be able to afford an update.
As the cost of computer power to the consumer falls, the cost for producers to fulfill Moore's law follows an opposite trend: R&D, manufacturing, and test costs have increased steadily with each new generation of chips. Rising manufacturing costs are an important consideration for the sustaining of Moore's law. This had led to the formulation of Moore's second law, also called Rock's law, which is that the capital cost of a semiconductor fab also increases exponentially over time.
