Is there a reason I got modded down for sounding excited? Whoever you are, you are a twit. Either that, or you haven't gotten the grasp of moderating. Well, one less point you'll be inflicting on someone else. Moron.
They don't need computers to fly - they just need their eyes and hands. They probably havily rely on the on board computers for the mission details etc. As long as their hydraulics and throttle still work, they can keep flying, and stop crying because their machine's crashed.
Flash memory will have about 100,000 write cycles before you will burn it out. As parent mentioned, a controller would write that data to several different locations, at different times, thus increasing the lifetime. What this would mean though is that your flash disk will be considerably bigger then what it can actually hold.
So the image is recieved wirelesly into the brain basically. I wonder if they get any interference.. or can they maybe pick up TV channels?... that would be a bonus.
well the chicken would easily fit inside the helmet. Connect it to an air tank and seal up the helmet. But I guess, if you are going to eat the chicken, why not just put it in a plastic bag. Its cold up there, so it won't go off, and you don't need to keep it alive..
However, they really should have a grace period of at least 6 months where they are still selling their computers with the option of Windows XP. After all, you can't guarantee everyone's business application will run on Vista, so untill thats sorted, businesses will still want to run XP, or 2000 for that matter.
Unfortunately, they don't really care about that point of view, what they do care is about selling as many machines with Vista on it. For the home user buying a new PC, it probably won't make much difference in the end.
So what? For someone only wanting basic protection, its probably good enough. For someone wanting better antivirus protection, they'll get another antivirus program. Is this supposed to be big news?
Electrical engineers have the understanding of hardware, and software. As an electrical engineer, I do a crapload of hardware design, and probably even more software. Well, to be exact, firmware rather than anything else. And I guess thats probably what the guy above means. I dont know what its like now, but when i did uni, comp sci students programmed C/C++ on unix, while electrical enginners did assembly/C on microcontroller boards.
Along with mspgcc, a great IDE is conTEXT, and you can set up function keys for make, and msp430-downloader tool, while having the console information returned to you in the IDE window, making it a very easy to use development enviroment, and all for free.
mspgcc also supports the usb jtag (tool for downloading your firmware into the micro), so you aren't stuck with parallel ports.

Geez, I thought we just turned up the heating during summer!

You are attempting to come up with another original "cancel or allow" joke. Cancel or Allow?
I want one!!!
can you support that with a link? Making running windows XP on a secured network a criminal offense?

Shit, I don't care how rich Microsoft is.. 1.52 billion? Thats gotta hurt!

You fellas have computers in outback Queensland? :P
Only if the admin hears it..

This is way off topic, but i just realized I don't have a "reply" button underneath the article.. where the hell did it dissapear to?
Its the whales farting....
does the hamster computer run linux??
But the fact that you've avoided jail would make you a little less scared to do it next time.

and how do you suppose to make a grain omlette in space?
Arggghhh! Dammit. I actually clicked on that!!!!!!
get rid of DRM. maybe others will follow...
I'm sure the prices go down over time, but most definitely I spend more on computers as I get older...
No, not necessarily illegal.
