Dreamworks, Sinbad & Linux
Ex-MislTech writes "Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas, an animated movie from DreamWorks Animation Technology that hits theaters July 2, is the first Hollywood production created entirely on Linux. More than 250 Hewlett-Packard workstations running Red Hat Linux make up the core of DreamWorks' graphics platform."
"The biggest problems were the women and the water."
Isn't that the problem that most men have to deal with anyway?

Strange, being a Linux user women are my biggest problem too.
I find it highly amusing that the only place I could find clips for this new movie was on WindowsMedia.com!

The Kruger Dunning explains most post on
- MPlayer crashed. This shouldn't happen.
It can be a bug in the MPlayer code _or_ in your drivers _or_ in your gcc
version. If you think it's MPlayer's fault, please read DOCS/bugreports.html
and follow the instructions there. We can't and won't help unless you provide
this information when reporting a possible bug.
(and, yes, that was a joke, folks...)

Well, you've never been married.

That comedian always had the zaniest things to say.
And his pants!
The article doesn't mention anything about Linux having any issue with his pants. Big, billowy pants - likely what inspired MC Hammer now that I think of it.
There are some odd things afoot now, in the Villa Straylight.
Perhaps he is now rejecting the following he got from films like Seven and Fight Club.
HEY! You do NOT talk about Fight Club!

Free your mind.
DEC 25 perhaps?
Because everyone knowns that OCT 33 just doesn't make sense.
I assert that my comment is only my opinion, not that of any employer, past, present or future.
Most TV producers are not computer scientists and don't see the irony and/or don't care.
Can you imagine how awful TV would be if it WERE produced by computer scientists?
