  1. Re:Tomorrow? on Voters In Many States Must Register By October 6 · · Score: 1

    I rather object to this comment in that I did not vote in the primaries, but still care about who represents me. Because I choose to be part of a party other than the "big two", I don't get any special voting before the general election in my state. The primaries mean nothing to me, as I have no faith in the dems or the republicans to represent my views.

  5. Re:Memory limitations on Eight PS3 'Supercomputer' Ponders Gravity Waves · · Score: 1

    If you're looking to have more memory, but use the cell processor, IBM makes blade servers with up to 2GB of RAM. You could actually make a -real- supercomputer out of these!
