I screwed that up. I just double checked it. A while back the RIAA was claiming at one point that ripping CDs isn't fair use. So it should have been "according to the RIAA there was no legal way to get them there."
This is like a while back President Bush said he had the Beatles on his iPod, when there was no legal way to get them on there. Sure, It's funny, but thats this isn't gonna change anyone's minds and there is no way the RIAA is gonna after him. Policians and celebrities don't have to play by the same rules as you and I, whats new?
FTFA:
The return of wildlife to the region near the world's worst nuclear power accident, first reported more than a decade ago, is an apparent paradox that biologists are still trying to measure and understand. Its just checking back on it. Like those those VH1 "Where are they now?" shows. One looks at Vanilla Ice's career today, this looks at Chernobyl. Pretty similar disasters
TFA says it comes with 256MB or 512MB on board. It discribes the processor fairly well too. Its a sized down Via C7-M. The OS is embeded and I imagine what little else will be held in flash memory.
They are still offering out of warranty service on those GX270/GX280's with bad caps. Its for something like up to 5 years after purchasing it. If they are willing to step up to the plate and service windows machines that were shipped with a defect after their warrenty is dead, then I'd expect they will do they same for linux machines. I'd only expect this with another widespread defect that could cause lots of bad press, like those bad caps. Don't count on them being nice guys and replacing parts out of warranty if you're the only one with the problems
Intel used 100 million transistors on the chip, which measures 275 millimeters squared. By comparison, its Core 2 Duo chip uses 291 million transistors and measures 143 millimeters squared. Maybe its just because I haven't had my morning coffee yet, or is that a typo?

Don't over-analyze the lame joke, you insensitive clod!

I agree. The other day on the firehose I saw a summary refer to "Huxley's 1984" and my soul cried a little bit.
...when he says that the DS is great, the PSP is missing killer apps, but sadly not much else
They were developed by the same company, so I doubt that was the problem
