    I can too! LZip to the rescue!

    Uh oh, sounds like a challenge to me... post an URL and maybe you can get an order of slashdotting to go with the spam!

    omg that's horrible... you want a spell checker too!

    Exactly. Be had something they could actually sell. That's already better than most dot coms out there.

    "Uhh... we're consultants!" Yeah, like everybody and their momma, who can also get online and register YoMommaConsulting.com.

    Needed more software written for it. Of course, much more software wouldn't get written for it unless more people were using it.

    Chicken? Egg?

    You mean a beowulf cluster of 20 BeBoxes?

  7. Re:BeBox on Be Gear Up For Auction · · Score: 2

    I think it was all standard, but it was just cool... SMP BeBoxes with the CPU Meters... it's just cool.

    Plus, everyone wanted them some years back when they were considered great perfomers, so now you get to own a piece of geek-lust history.

  8. Re:P4 vs Athlon - they Recommend P4 for gamming? on Intel Northwood CPU Review · · Score: 1

    Well said, I was wondering about the same goddamn thing. Too bad I have no mod points.

  9. Re:Tests give the pentiums the benifit of the doub on Intel Northwood CPU Review · · Score: 2

    And check out the quote from the conclusion:

    "In reality, the Northwood Pentium 4 is an amazingly fast processor. It's safe to say that as of right now, the Northwood at 2.0 GHz is a faster gaming processor in comparison to the 1.67 GHz (2000+) Athlon XP."

    Now, what makes them say that? In Q3A the Norhtwood usually leads, but in RTCW, which is using the Q3A engine, the XP's consistently lead.

    WTF gives? Anyone got an answer?

  10. Re:Even quicker than 3ghz !! on Intel Northwood CPU Review · · Score: 1

    I dunno, the page that page links to now claims 3110MHz.

    Of course, right above that image there's a link to supposedly 3150MHz.

  12. Re:Ok.. I will be the first to say it..... on Time Canada Shows New iMac · · Score: 2

    I agree that it doesn't look great...

    Now, if Apple had managed to pull off something like this, that would've been really cool.

    17" Wide-Screen, 800Mhz G3, CDR/DVD, Integrated Sub(!), and Remote Control. I can't imagine what said sub would've done to the computer's internals though.

  13. Re:yupeee yahoo hoorray on Cold CRT Guns for Thinner CRTs · · Score: 1

    Actually, making the size of the monitor smaller without reducing the weight may be good enough, as you don't have to carry around a huge, bulky thing anymore.

  14. Re:Duh, on XBox Defects Draw Ire · · Score: 1

    Ok, so it got modded to 5, Insightful, and some anti-nintendo fool comes along and says "fuck him, -1 offtopic!"

    And there ya go.

    No, there's no button on AC posts. But it doesn't matter anyway, just check the option in your profile to add -1 to any AC posts.

    Wow, who'd have known a geek could have so many friends?

  20. Re:Details please? on Slashdot Code Update · · Score: 2

    Seems to me that it's just if you specify someone as a friend, the person;'s posts become boosted by some number of points. Set the person as a foe, it removes points.

    Doesn't seem to be much more to it.
