Don't blame Cameron; she was distracted by her thing for House.
I must Play Captain Obvious on this, but i believe he meant Cameron from Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles, AKA River Tam, AKA Supreme Hotness, AKA The Dream of 99% of Geeks, AKA (well to some people) Summer Glau.
They don't technically reproduce on their own, they need a host thats why they found that "nest" with the dead bodies. But Great book, and scary article i just by this becomes mainstream all homes have positive pressure.
Or Like Longhorn Before they turned it into Vista and made it royally suck, GIVE ME WINFS!!!!! I just ran Longhorn 4051 not long ago, it seemed solid, but It was a major ram hog it used about 400mb on a box with 512mb total, but overall i liked it, 2000 was based off of NT4 XP was based off of 2000, Longhorn was based off of XP and Vista is Longhorn after it hit the fan they need to concentrate on performance and not on prettiness, base it off of XP, maybe with WINFS and a streamlined kernel, then once thats done add an amount of prettiness that wont kill performance, Media Center was pretty and it worked great (most of the time) just reinvent Longhorn, Please... Pretty Please, How bout this you make Windows 7 work good and run good on 256MB RAM and you can have my first child.
(jokes on them, pfft like i'll ever breed)
I don't know how i feel about this, I love Thinkpads and I'm glad there not changing them to make them more consumer friendly, yet i worry this will draw their attention away from the Thinkpads.
You have to realize though that Linux as it exists today is a direct off shoot of Linux from 20 years ago, it was never designed to have a GUI, use Bash for everything, never ever load gnome or kde and you'll see where Linux Excels, Windows NT based systems weren't designed with the DOS backbone of 9x (ever notice how 9x series always crashed, but NT doesn't). Mac OS X is basically Darwin Unix but it had an absurd amount of time and manpower to get the GUI to work with it also it has standardized hardware. As far as I'm concerned Modern Linux does a great job considering that all desktop managers have to be able to work on an insanely wide array of machines and an equally insane amount of distros, and it will basically stay that way but the Core of Linux is as solid as ever, this is why the vast majority of Servers run Linux in one form or another. In short if your OS has a CLI that is the backbone of the system it will take a massive amount of work to get it to run a GUI just as reliably.
There are ways to eliminate the sonic boom, or GREATLY reduce it, i cant find a site but it was in Popular Mechanics a few years back, just rounding the bottom of the plane seems to greatly help it.
The very best way to secure a wireless network is to make your look like less of a target than thers around you, I personally have a 13 digit WPA2 passphrase including numbers and MAC filtering, overall pretty solid. But then my neighbors have completly unlocked wireless with their routers using the default settings, anyone who would choose me over them would have to be either really bored or wanting to specifically see what i'm doing, I'm not paranoid about this but i do check my router every 2 weeks or so just to make sure that only the right computers log in, if i see my laptop logged in all by itself at 2AM even though it was dissassembled i know i have a problem other than that i dont really care.
Or that the Wii would be a smash hit with Grandparents and others who have no clue what a REAL videogame is.
I bet money the Wii would be vaporware but then it was called the revolution... Still like that name more, and now I'm out $50.

Oh Come on it was unfounded, and Troll like but damn it if you didn't laugh then you have problems.
I'm Pretty Sure It Would Asplode, yeah in space no one can hear you scream and things Asplode.

In a more perfect world the System Requirements would be the same as StarCraft's.

NT4 was alright.
Sorry to tell ya, but that isnt a Thinkpad, not even in the same ballpark as one.
And it should be criminal when ther companies put it in there laptops :cough: DELL :cough:

Modded up for the "The Core" reference, one of the worst movies in recent memory. Kudos.
I bought one for myself a few months ago with XP, its nothing new.

Get a thinkpad, and stop overclocking your GPU.
