What Is 802.11ac and Will It Make
My Wi-Fi Faster?
From: http://lifehacker.com
Dear Need for Speed,
It's tempting, isn't it? 802.11ac is a hot new wireless technology that boasts faster and at longer ranges than 802.11n, the current king of wireless standards. It does promise some seriously impressive speed improvements over 802.11n though, but because it's not finished, there are some things to consider if you're thinking about investing in it.
Here's what you need to know.
What Is 802.11ac?
You can safely bet that any device with Wi-Fi connectivity, from your laptop to your smartphone, supports at least wireless B or G, and if it came out within the past few years, it should support wireless N. 802.11n (or the latest draft of it, 802.11n-2009) is the fastest of the ones that are currently widely available. 802.11ac is a new Wi-Fi protocol and is intended to be the natural successor to 802.11n. You may have heard it called "5G Wi-Fi" or "Gigabit Wi-Fi."

The Mobo Efforts From ASUS Shows Some REAL Pomise...
With connectivity to the Max.
ASUS Sabertooth z87 (Haswell ready) MoBo.
Honey, I'm TUF'er Than The Rest
Asus rolled out over a dozen Z87 chipset-based motherboards for the fourth-generation Core chip launch last week. The Taiwanese giant sandwiches its regular-looking boards with new versions of RoG (Republic of Gamers) and TUF (The Ultimate Force) variations. Asus, clearly, is keen to show that it doesn't solely rely on the technology contained within the ever-more-integrated processors from Intel.

Since the ASUS is the Basis of my Nexus 7 Tablet,
I expect a lot of this Mega-Goodness
to Trickle Down to the Mobile Space Real-Soon-Now...
Which, incidently includes the Raspberry Pi, Pi variants
and Arduino projects and bots.
Too Much Good Stuff, Folks.
