  1. New G4 Plus Cinema Display = Awesome!!! on Apple announces the G4 · · Score: 1

    This is a link to the cinema display......

    This thing looks SOOOO awesome... I might die of envy right now...

  2. Re:Why mySQL? on Load Test the New Slashdot Setup · · Score: 1

    mySQL is really fast... It lacks features that some people need (stored procs, transactions) but it is SOOOO fast that if you don't need those features, it's really hard to beat.

  3. Re:Apple Closed Out... on Apple sues eMachines · · Score: 1

    Definately... OS X is not sucking... The latest internal Apple builds look quite promising...

  4. Re:Cool... on Apache 1.3.9 Now Available · · Score: 1

    I think one of the reasons that mySQL costs more on Windoze is that it costs more to develop on Windows. The OS/tools are not free as they are on Linux... Granted mySQL runs on other *NIXes...

  5. Apache 1.3.9 Bug Fixes and Performance on Apache 1.3.9 Now Available · · Score: 1

    What I want to know is this: is it worth the trouble to upgrade from 1.3.6? If so, can I just build a new httpd and drop it in on top of my 1.3.6 install?

  6. Re:The hype is everywhere... on Beware The Hype, Not the Witch · · Score: 1

    Am I the only one that thought the movie was a real great novel twist?

  7. Re:Only if Linus comes down to earth again. on Will PPC Become the Preferred Linux Platform? · · Score: 1

    I feel this as well.

  8. MacOS X - No Boot ROM Required on IBM opens PowerPC design to LinuxPPC · · Score: 1

    Interestingly enough, MacOS X might run on these machines, depending on how far off the hardware is... OS X DOES NOT require a boot ROM from Apple (uses a totally different design). While MacOS 9 doesn't require a boot ROM either, it's got specific system enablers for certain motherboards...

  9. Re:MacOS X GUI on Ask Slashdot: Comparing the GUIs · · Score: 1

    Wrong. The X in MacOS X stands for 10.

  10. Re:MacOS X GUI == DPS on Ask Slashdot: Comparing the GUIs · · Score: 1

    OS X Server uses DPS. OS X client/consumer and future versions of OS X Server will use what is being called Quartz and is based more on PDF.

  11. MacOS X GUI on Ask Slashdot: Comparing the GUIs · · Score: 1

    I know that the MacOS is evil because it's not open source...but...

    About a year ago there were internal Apple docs floating around on the net showing off ideas for the then-Rhapsody, now-MacOS X GUI. It looks great!! Anyone got a link to that PDF?

  12. Re:WB1.1 on Ask Slashdot: Comparing the GUIs · · Score: 1

    I remember WorkBench! Really, in terms of modern interface design, it was fairly borked.

  13. Re:X or no X on Ask Slashdot: Comparing the GUIs · · Score: 1

    Personally I find X clunky and old.

  14. Re:MS site is down on LinuxPPC Challenge: Crack the Box and Keep it! · · Score: 1

    Win2k requires a reboot when the System Log fills up?? That's fucking ridiculous.

  15. Re:What's sauce for the Goose... on Barred from Red Hat IPO? · · Score: 1

    This is really funny... It's sooooooo true.

  16. Re:If anyone from RedHat's reading... on Barred from Red Hat IPO? · · Score: 1

    All of us could start a corporation and buy a 100,000 shares of the stock and then redistribute the profits.

  17. Re:Hub Picture on Inexpensive 11megabit Wireless LAN · · Score: 1

    So true, so true... Hmmmmmm... Apple Graphic Artists do not use computers too often...

  18. Re:their niche on Be Inc. IPO launched · · Score: 1

    Adobe Premiere sucks... Try Apple Final Cut Pro or Media 100 or Avid...

  19. Re:What? on Ask Slashdot: "Be" is for Beowulf? · · Score: 1

    It costs a lot of money to go through the certification process...

  20. Re:A few notes on Epitaph Selling MP3s · · Score: 1

    Greg Graffin has always been the singer for BR... Brett Gurewitz started Epitaph mainly to release BR records... He left after the recording of Stranger Than Fiction because BR signed to Atlantic and Brett wanted to focus on Epitaph...

  21. Re:99 cents an album and they'd take over the worl on Epitaph Selling MP3s · · Score: 1

    Indie labels like Epitaph and Fat sell to distribs for anywhere from $6.50-$8.00.

  22. QuickTime For Linux? on Ask Slashdot: What Quicktime Format for X-Platform? · · Score: 1

    With the advent of BSD based MacOS X, I wouldn't be surprised to see QT on other *nix's....

  23. DefCon Underwater on DEF CON 7.0 Begins, and NYT Coverage · · Score: 3

    Too bad Las Vegas is basically underwater right now...

    Soggy crackers... mmmmmm....

  24. Re: The point is that Apple IS the innovator here on iMac Clone Gets Sued · · Score: 1

    For me there is a difference between designing another computer with the same goal and ripping off someone else's idea down to the plastic color.

    I don't see why consumers would see this in a bad light. I resent it when others in my office rip off my work and put their name on it...

  25. Re:Big Brother? on iMac Clone Gets Sued · · Score: 1

    They did get everyone's permission.
