  1. Re:Partially Zero? on Green Cars You Can't Buy · · Score: 2, Funny

    Still not clear. Can someone explain it with say, a car analogy?

  2. Re:The real beginning of Vista on Vista SP1 Coming In Q1 2008 · · Score: 1

    I have never meat ONE person that though ME was useful for ANYTHING. Hi, I am Arcadia, and I found WinME had better mouse behavior than Win98SE for gaming. There were 3 levels of acceleration settings in ME, with one setting actually completely getting rid of it. In 98SE, there wasn't a setting and a hard-coded "low" acceleration was on. Therefore I liked and used ME. Oddly, I've seen tons of ME bashing but I didn't have more stability issues than I had in 98SE either. Granted, now I'm on XP and am never going to move on to Vista. When XP becomes obsolete (DirectX 10 takes over or other forced Vista-only crap becomes prevalent) I made a promise to myself to switch to the most recent Ubuntu version at that time. I see this happening for me within a 1 to 2 year timeframe.

    For #1 : Did you try Foxit PDF? I've replaced Adobe's with this one on Windows because it's very fast and 2mb in size. There is a linux version, closed source, sdk available. http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/desklinux/

  4. Will this scale? on Via Unveils 1-Watt x86 CPU · · Score: 1

    The TFA has a chart which shows a 1.5Ghz part with a 7.5W TDP. That's 3x the mhz for 7.5x the power. Will VIA's technology scale relatively easily, say a 2.5Ghz chip with 20W TDP?
