Sure they are... it's very faint, but if you zoom in on it, you'll see a smudge there. I ran the pdf through Ghostscript's pdf2ps, then extracted the uncompressed image to make a PNG. Run it through... The GIMP, and out comes this.
Looks like the original picture has been JPEGged in the process of turning it into a PDF--I bet it'd be even clearer in the original.

I dunno, A/UX is ancient and based on SVR2... seems unlikely that it'd be SuS-certified. I can't find where they actually list which of Apple's products are UNIX(tm) though.

Well, according to this, the Open Group considers Apple to be one of the "platform vendors supporting the Single UNIX Specification."
Not that it matters to the majority of Linux or MacOS X users.
Yep. That evidently has the LED connected across the data line (either going in or going out). [...] Perhaps some do, but none of the ones I have
So what happened to your claim that "THIS IS A FAKE"? As the AC said, "Every device ever made does not work like your fucking modem..."
If you get a photodiode, and hook it up to the input of an oscilloscope, you can see whether or not the LED actually flashes with the data being sent
Yes, and the authors of the paper did just that, and found that the LED did flash with the data for majority of the modems they tested. Really, you should read the paper.
I've looked at the insides of probably about 100 modems, hubs switches etc.
Sure, and I'm the queen of England. And even in the extremely unlikely event that you're telling the truth, looking at the insides of a modem isn't going to tell you anything about how the modem's LED works. I've been to NASA's Johnson Space Center a couple of times and have looked at the insides of a few rocket engines. Therefore I must be an expert!
I have a SupraFaxModem 14.4. I noticed a few years ago (when I was using the modem daily) that if I send a stream of NUL bytes down the line, the LED looks noticeably different (brighter) than when I send regular data. And if I send a break signal, the LED lights up solid for a second or so (however long the break is). The LED most certainly is correlated to the actual bits being sent down the line.
Yeah, you do sound like a troll. You've got your timeline backwards... why did Apple make the effort to port BSD to PPC when NetBSD had provided a perfectly good (and free) distro to the PPC already? The first NetBSD release for Power Macintosh was in May 1999. MacOS X came about two years later, March 2001. (Well, okay... MacOS X Server was released in March 1999, but that's just barely earlier than NetBSD. Both were in development at the same time...)
And like other posters have mentioned, the MVME boards are nothing like a PowerMac. MacOS X isn't going to run on 'em anyways.
The US has had an RF-based system for paying road toll for many years too (the city I lived in has used such a system for about 10 years, but I know it's been around longer than that). This article isn't about RF tags in general--it's that Timex is putting one in a wristwatch. (Although, according to another post here, that's not a new development either).
Now FreeBSD has complications with multiple devices on the same IRQs (especially sound, video, and nic all off the same one).
Fix FreeBSD then. PCI devices can share IRQs... however, you have to take the time to write the drivers properly. I don't see what WinXP has to do with anything... I'm sure the XP drivers for your cards can share IRQs just fine.
Ooops, I forgot... the above is true for everyone except Microsoft.
Now now... it's not like that was an uncommon practice back then. Maybe in hindsight, it wasn't a very good practice, but using RAM efficiently was important. Apple did the same thing with the Mac--hence the need for the MODE32 extension if you wanted to use more than 8 megs of RAM (when in 24-bit mode, the 16MB address space was split 8MB for RAM and 8MB for ROM and memory-mapped I/O). Without MODE32, the MMU (or Apple's "AMU" in the Mac II w/68020) mapped things so that the upper 8 bits were ignored.
Moore's law does NOT take car of the transistor problem in devices like DVD players. DVD manufacturers don't throw specially designed chips at DVD decoding, they just throw a larger number of dumber chips at the problem.
Moore's law takes care of the transistor problem everywhere. What, you think DVD players do MPEG2 decoding with a truckload of 7400-series logic chips? DVD manufacturers certainly do use specially-designed chips for DVD decoding; my DVD player uses one of ESS Technologies' single-chip DVD solutions. MPEG2, DTS, AC3, and MP3 decoding all on one chip. Plus a MIPS CPU core.

Well, just because you can do something, it doesn't mean you should. NFS doesn't export directories--NFS exports filesystems. If you have a FS mounted on/share, and you export/share/somedir, you've actually exported all of/share, even though you may not realize it.
Yes, well, as the BBC article says, "Cc: is a copy of her genetic mother, not of the surrogate cat which actually gave birth to her." So she is a clone.
Okay, so it can take a couple of minutes to trace a call... but the question is why do the parties have to stay on the call? The calls are logged, right? If the bad guy hangs up, the phone company can still look through the logs and find the originating number. Heck, it's even automated these days--at least Southwestern Bell (my RBOC) offers Call Trace and Call Return.
Riiiight... a Google search for fluorinert "mustard gas" turns up a total of 10 hits, the ones that mention Fluorinert turning into mustard gas are from some thread on Beowulf clusters. And that claim was only made by one person... so I'm supposed to believe it?
Well, I don't... Mustard gas contains sulfur and chlorine... in particular, it's C4H8Cl2S. On the other hand, Fluorinert is a fluorocarbon--it contains carbon, fluorine, and maybe hydrogen. There's no way you're going to get mustard gas from burning it (in air at least). In fact, Fluorinert is non-flammable. Good luck setting it on fire in the first place!
That said, it does decompose into hydrofluoric acid and other stuff if you heat it too much, so I guess that would be a bad thing:) But it's not mustard gas.
