If you put an Eden processor into the board, it's fanless and requires just a heatsink. If you stick in a C3 processor, it requires the "fansink" shown in the Linuxdevices article photos.
See either chapter 2 of the manual or the paragraph below the second photo of the motherboard on the Linuxdevices article: The Epia MS is the first VIA mainboard available with the fanless 1GHz VIA Eden ESP processor announced last February. The board is also available with a fanless 800MHz VIA Eden ESP processor, or with a "fansink" equipped 1.2GHz VIA C3.
Might I add, if you think this will fit in your pocket you need to read the specs. With dimensions of 3x4x9, it might be wise to check for the ACME name before attempting to cram it in your pocket.
You mis-read the specs and didn't look at the photos. The dimensions are 4.9" x 3.4" x 0.9"

The name of the company and the computer, pronounced oh-QUE-oh, was picked at random. It doesn't mean anything, but they liked it because a Google search showed that no one else was using it.
I prefer my SimpleTech Bonzai (not the Xpress). Why? Future expandibility. As SD cards grown in capacity, I can upgrade as need be. I don't have to worry about out growing a fixed capacity flash drive. The drawback is that the SD card is more expensive.
What does the Slashdot crowd think about the overall design and its downsides, such as power consumption on notebooks?
This is/. and you're asking about how they will like a Microsoft technology? Of course, they'll hate it. Microsoft could come out with something that that's the coolest thing since Linux and/. will still hate it.
Both UD and Grid are distributed systems. There's not much point in giving the hardware to them. UD and Grid work by using client resources to do the work, not a centralized server farm. Sure, they could use it for some of their backend stuff, but if you're looking to boost UD and Grid's processing power, the clusters are not going to help since UD and Grid are Windows only.
Unless Apple finds some way to lock up consumers into buying its products (easy to do with Powerbooks, not so easy with Airport access point buyers), they won't do well either in this market.
You've answered the question yourself. Apple has "locked up" consumers with their Airport Base Station by selling it to them when they purchase the PowerBook. It's the "you'll want to buy Apple products because they work better together, even if other base stations work fine" deal.
802.11g has been out for a long time, so Apple holding their 20% of the market share is more than first mover advantage.
Whether it is sent into the crater or remains outside and nearby, what is the likelihood that the rovers will *ever* be recovered? Won't they then be "stuck forever" anyway?
One would hope that eventually somebody will recover Pathfinder/Sojourner, Spirit, and Opportunity. Heck, maybe one day somebody will find the remnants of Beagle 2 and figure out just what happened.
The idea isn't unprecedented. Apollo 12 landed at the Surveyor III landing site. They didn't pick it up, but I supposed they could have brought back parts of it.
The rovers are designed to withstand tilt of 45 degrees without tipping over. At the speed that the rovers travel, I'm pretty sure that it's software is designed to stop movement if it senses that it's tilt is getting too great, it will stop what it's doing.
Of course, this doesn't work if something unexpected happens like lots of soil slippage or a rock giving way (that would have to be one large rock). The rovers are programmed to go around rocks, not over them, so the chances of it tipping over are pretty low. Soil slippage like the type Opportunity saw at Eagle crater isn't going to cause the rover to tip. It was have to be a full-on landslide.

fxp is the driver for the Intel PRO/100 Ethernet adapters.
In order for any format to survive, we need the pioneers to force the standard to be adapted, and only then can the industry move forward.
Unfortunately, lots of companies think they are "pioneers" or "a leading manufacturer" and they have different opinions so you get the mess that is DVD formats. There is no one "pioneer" in the DVD formats.
It wasn't until the P & Q variants of the Netsky worm that it exploited the MIME header flaw in Outlook. Before variants P & Q, the worm relied on the recipient opening the attachment.
don't many of these viruses use the same vulnerabilities?
Yes, they do... the recipient of the virus opening up the attachment because they either got fooled ("new virus warning", "mail bounce", etc.) or enticed (porn stuff). Netsky, Bagle, MyDoom didn't exploit a Windows vulnerability. It did the "social engineering" thing to spread.
if that's the case, doesn't that mean a statistic like this should be pointed to not as an indicator of rising numbers of viruses, but as an indicator of the lack of response from the applications being exploited?
Unfortunately, the "application" being exploited is the user.
Bandwidth didn't seem to be a problem. NASA web pages were loading up just fine, but the Real streams died. I suspect the servers are reaching capacity more than NASA running out of bandwidth.
Same thing happened with the Mars Rovers landed. You could view web pages just fine, but good luck watching the videos.

I think the thickness is not listed as it could be variable depending on what's plugged into the board: PCI card, IDE cables, power cables, etc.
More details about the scheme are available at CBS Marketwatch.

There's no application fee, so you should apply if you can think of some interesting project.

If you read the article, you would have seen that the balloons would be 13 miles up. Far out of range of any RPG or even a Stinger missile.

Use the Windows Media Player feed, nobody on /. will ever be using that. Or they won't admit it...
I think this telescope of his is of more interest to museums than the one for sale.
I dunno about Opera being better than Adobe. You forget that Opera whined about Safari when it came out.
There's no hand to tip because they already did that. SpaceShipOne had flown it's first powered flight back in December.
You mean one of these?
