Intel's Linux Based Home Media Gateway
An anonymous reader writes "This article at LinuxDevices.com takes a look at a new 'home media gateway' design that was unveiled today by Intel at the Intel Developer Forum in San Jose, CA. The device is expected to be manufactured by multiple consumer electronics manufacturers in Asia, and will enable the distribution of PC digital media to TVs and stereos throughout the home.
The gadget is based on one of Intel's new XScale processors running a customized version of Linux, provides support for JPEG, MP3, and WMA digital content, utilizes 802.11b wireless networking, and supports NTSC/PAL/S-video TV connections and AC-97 stereo connection. The home media adapter is a key component of Intel's 'Extended Wireless PC Initiative', which is part of Intel's greater Digital Home initiative."
Oh my!
You won! Do you get a parade down Broadway with tickertape and the United Airlines space cadet canidates riding alongside of you in the back of a Geo-Metro convertable?
I've never seen a FP actually win! This is amazing. This is the best day of my entire life. You are a national treasure. They should blast out the faces of Mt. Rushmore and place your face in their place.
I would love it if you could learn the fine art of tatooing and tatoo your autograph into my bare buttocks, so I can show my great grand childern evidence I saw it. 9/12/02 will live forever in the hearts and minds of all Americans.
They should kick Markey Mark off the space station and let you go up instead, because somebody of your incredible greatness can rule the planet from a pearch on high in orbit, and bring 10,000 virgins to ajoin you on the ISS. They should kick Sir Charles Barkley out of his palatial estate and shoot it up into orbit so you can live in it.
They need to ramp up the development of the space elevator so it can be teathered to the ISS so daily you can dine on Fresh pork chops and fine malt beer.
I am not worthy.
You're a Commie.
I just heard some sad news on talk radio - Horror/Sci Fi writer Stephen King was found dead in his Maine home this morning. There weren't any more details. I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will miss him - even if you didn't enjoy his work, there's no denying his contributions to popular culture. Truly an American icon.
What enrages European assholes so much is the fact that Americans just don't give a fuck or care about the fact they hate us. In American eyes French, German, Dutch and English pussies are mere insects we could crush whenever we wanted to. Their hatred grows from a deep sense of envy and fear of our power. So just get over it European jerkoffs, you are insignificant and not even worthy of Americans scorn. You pukes are just gutless cowards. I tired of America saving you goddamn pigs.
