I have to say, I've been screwing around with Vista, and IMHO, it is very nice. While I won't say it is faster, I can't say I notice it being much slower, considering when XP came out, P3's were still in heavy use, I think that says alot about the new "features" they implemented. They made a lot of improvements to RC1, which I tried for an hour and got rid of.
The thing that really flipped me out was that I pulled my hardware, put it on a new MB, planning on a reinstall. I figured, at least I can chuckle when it doesn't finish booting.
10 minutes later and one reboot, everything was found and working properly. Of course, I'm now getting a licensing error, fun, fun, fun.
All that said, if your running a web server, I'd still recommend an apache/linux combo, but if you're looking for a HTPC, it is an excellent choice.
I still wouldn't go light on the hardware. I've been running it on a Dual Core and now a Phenom, and it is probably optimized for multi-core cpus. That and read up on how to effectively tune it. There are a lot of good articles, like how to put those usb thumb drives to good use to improve load time of frequently used programs. Memory management is much better, and if you load it up with RAM(at least 2 gigs), you'll notice the difference.
If I weren't impatient, I wouldn't steal others code and tell my employer I wrote it. I think Larry Wall said it best: "Three great virtues of programming are laziness, impatience, and hubris."
The problem is that many of these 20 somethings suffer from divorced/working parents that try and one up each other/feel guilty they don't spend enough time with their kids so they give them everything.
If you never learned to apply yourself at home, would you bother learning the finer points of any search engine, or would you be pissed that the "I'm feeling lucky" button doesn't always give you what you want?
I certainly don't use the Babel fish, at least, not when the Vogon's are around. I don't need things like "Ode To A Small Lump Of Green Putty I Found In My Armpit One Midsummer Morning" translated.
At least the egotistical VBS programmers stood upright in comparison to the documenters who thought the HTML "code" they wrote was a programming language. They're still mouth breathers dragging their knuckles on the ground, but still, they could stand.
This shouldn't be an or. Something that is needed or not needed can still be futile. I think we can all agree in most cases it is futile, regardless of your stance.
You'll need it, that or a stadium sized screen to see the detail. Just think, todays concern about seeing butt pimples in porn will turn into standardizing porn in science classroom since you'll be able to tell the difference Streptococcus and Staphylococcus.
Hmmmm, maybe I should have spelled that StreptoCockus and StaphyloCockus.
Tell that to the Japanese. They have this ultranerd complex that makes them want robots where robots aren't needed. The Sirius Cybernetics Corporation is surely a Japanese company. "the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation defines a robot as 'your plastic pal who's fun to be with'."
Unless you are really hell bent on speed or aren't mirroring, avoid hardware raids. While hardware may be faster, if the raid controller blows up, you probably have to find the same one to replace it since there is no standard on how the data is written.
If you rebuild your system, reloading the same software for the raid should be cake.
That's just what the lawyer said. A few years ago there was a security professional busted with Kiddie porn and he said there was a trojan on his computer and he didn't put the porn there. Needless to say, he got off like when he was looking at those pictures.
Even if you do the proper storage and examination methods that are recommended, I'd argue that any Lawyer who is technically competent could find reasonable doubt in any case.
Just because you have a piece of paper showing you did a bit copy and stored it in a fireproof container doesn't mean you did, and it doesn't account for the time when the crime happened to the time when the computer was seized, especially if it was live on a network.

You'd have more free time thanks to automating it in Perl.

1 beer may not cure psychological problems, but a 6 pack will make it feel a lot better. Believe me, I would know, and so would I.

"Do the security features in Windows Vista -- such as limits on HD playback and signed drivers -- help in fighting cheaters?".
I'm glad I'll be able to use my modded character over an HDMI cable, and I can install a 3rd party device without a signed driver to get around this.
Who thinks up these questions?
I'd like a fast moon buggy too. Where do I get in line?
So their now selling dsniff?

They already did, right on the users who paid for it.
Kind of like the Pac=man breakfast cereal in the 80s that got stopped by General Mills marketing team.
Apparently Fudge Pac=man had a bad connotation.

This model would force me to claim chapter 7 considering I need infinite CPU power.

What kind of people is ZDNet employing these days. This question seems on par with, "Could a night crawler get sun burn?"

Complex like making a cup of tea?
I was thinking more of a well trimmed bush with some double D. Of course, I'm not one who likes a lot left to the imagination.
I always knew it was divine power that caused me to see double.

I bet these cancelations won't affect their credit scores, though it may be a genius idea to keep the Deficit down.
He probably deserves some credit. He did more then double the effectiveness of the water pistol.
Don't forget that cable engineers will be forced to diversify when the DIY network spills the intimate secrets of their job.
