Big Blue to take on Pixar?
spareacct1 writes "USAToday is reporting that IBM is set to announce a strategic partnership with Threshold Digital Research Labs of Santa Monica, CA. TDRL now hopes it has the deep pockets and computing power to take on Pixar as the undisputed leader in CG animated films. TDRL's spartan website is showing off digital stills. Interesting sidebar at the end of the story, both Pixar and TDRL recently dumped Sun and MS, respectively, in favor of Linux."

FIRST POST, HONIES! That's right, this first post has not breen brought to you by anybody except Big Blue and my Big Blue Balls!
For the millionth time...
They moved to Linux becasue their graphics apps were ported to Linux and since they are companies in business to make (and save) money, they dumped the OS they had to pay for in favor of the one they don't.
Simple enough?

In other words, kids, Slashdot is a pathetic former shell of itself, strutting and fretting about, signifying... NOTHING"
holy fuck you are 14 minutes late, what is wrong with you? you are pathetic.
only faggots mention their karma in their sig
Obviously Weta Digital is the leader. Take a look at Nemo and Gollum. Now think real hard your Linux gooks, which looks more realistic? That's right - Gollum. Now quit posting shit before I come down there with a woodchipper for your masturbation hand.
The g5, even if it is on top which I doubt, won't stay on top long. Apple simply can't keep up. That's just how it is. Even if Pixar converts their entire operation to g5's, they'll be glad they have the linux option in a few months when the next big x86 processor comes along and destroys it and Apple doesn't have a competing system in sight. The G5 is a fluke. They lucked out. It might happen again in another 5 years if they last that long.
yeah, this is a niche market for an OS that has no consistent support for HW or SW. whee.
Solaris kicks any distro of Linux's ass when it comes to being stable (reliable) and fast enough. Just run it on the chip it was designed for. All that x86 has going for it is MHz, which is an irrelevant pissing contest.
I almost hope SCO wins it's lawsuits so that you asshats are forced to look at an excellent, if non-free OS. It's called "Solaris". It runs best on "SPARC". It's your future. Deal with it.
Feel free to Google the terms in quotes, and remember that a free OS is worth exactly what you pay for it.
I'd like to see you pull off a crapflood of GNAA proportions
Can we get someone who knows how to write a fucking script before we worry about who's gonna do the CG? Please? The movies already suck. Don't make them suck more.
BOYCOTT YOUR THEATER! MOVIE = RIPOFF!
Apple, owned by bill gates uses IBM PPC. And then IBM buys a company that will directly challenge Gates' other company Pixar. Sounds like Big Blue 0wnz Mac.
Dear Slashdot Community,
It seems that I have recently misplaced my penis, possibly somewhere in the vicinity of your/your mother's anus. Any assistance in locating said phallus is greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Linus Torvalds
