Sgt. Paul Wandell, Beaverton police spokesman, said officers seized more than 50,000 items worth about $758,000. Most of the items were fake music CDs and movie DVDs, along with knockoff designer purses, sunglasses and clothing, and counterfeit brand-name toys, Wandell said.
Selective quoting is causing your math conundrum. Add the value of the rest of the items seized and you'll probably end up around $758,000.
This will be the best thing for grocery self-checkout. Have you ever been in line behind Joe "I have no idea where the UPC is" Blow and watch him try to get the scanner to recognize his can of Dinty-Moore stew? It's torture watching him wave the thing 3 feet away from the scanner or swing it back and forth in front of it at 100 mph. With this he can drop his carton full of Lean Pockets on the counter, pay, and be gone!
There's no short-cut to becoming a "popular" band, unless you've got an uncle in the biz or are a creation of a major label. Load your equipement into the van and hit the road playing every town you can. Make friends with the bands and patrons you meet. If you're good they'll tell others. (who can then go to your website to see when you're playing again.)
I can hear the calls now to IKEA's support line. "Yeah, I bought this bookshelf like 2 year's ago. I just put a copy of Microserfs on it and it won't stop beeping!"
The word Linux does appeare in the book. On page 6 there's a discussion on why learn assembly language.
One of Irvine's bullet points is about creating device drivers.
Here's a snippet...
Printer manufacturers, for example, create a different MS-Windows device driver for each model they sell. The same is true for Mac OS, Linux, and other operating systems.
At Cleveland State this year we had to buy this book and another (can't remeber the name it's used the second half of the semester) for the Lanugage Processor class.
If you want IA-64 info go to Intel's site for the white papers.:)
When I see a biker in full leather chaps and that fringey stuff I always think, man that's a real lifestyle choice. If I see you driving this thing I'll think the same thing. I'm not sure that I would respect you anymore or less than the biker though.
That's exactly it!
They (the company buying the product) needs someone to point the finger at and blame or demand a fix from.
The large company I work for puts a lot of weight behind buying software that comes with support. It almost always has to be someone with 24/7 contact ability. In house development is done with common tools (Java, C++, VB...) and kept simple so the next contractor that comes in can pick it up quickly.
If I'm sending or receiving 1,000 purchase orders or invoices a day. Someone better pick up the phone when I've got a problem.
There are a lot of guidelines, but I don't see anything about how they will enforce them.
Will the member company be removed from the committee or fined?
Let our great christian god sort them out later. Those who survive, we'll drug, chain, humiliate, make them eat pork and parade to star-chambered justice at the Camp X-ray
Drug & chain: Sedation and restraints protects the prisoner and the gaurd.
Humiliate: Did the Marines send them to the Friar's club to be roasted. ??
Parade: After they're roasted we'll give them a ticker-tape parade through Times Square.
Eat Pork: What the hell are you talking about?
star-chambered justice: This is not a conventional war we're talking about here. The prisoners are being kept for questioning, in view of the Cuban watchers posts.
great christian god: This really gets to me. This military action is NOT about religion. I don't give a damn if the people behind world terrorism are Protestant, Catholic, Jewish, Islamic, or Mennonite. Your God vs. my God isn't the point.
Why else would they try and get R.E.M. to let them use "It's The End Of The World As We Know It" (and get turned down), Rolling Stones "Start Me Up", and Madonna (whatever song that is)?
"Dude you're getting a Dell."
The PC is advertised as cool, but Mac at least makes an attempt to make them that way.
Most Americans don't need the 1,000 songs the iPod can store, and would rather go to the megaplex than edit movies on their computers. What, you want me to pay for what's on TV?! I'd rather listen to my radio and eight tracks than flip through hundreds of channles.
Damn, choices.
Gelernter's "Machine Beauty" is another great book about combining beauty and function.
When did science and art separate? Socrates and Divinci would not be happy with the PC beige box.

Yeah, the Army really needs more to do.
Next, they'll be in charge of taking toll money on interstates.
Imagine if /. paid a nickle for every 503 error.
exactly what I was thinking
You don't spend your money on fixing bugs.
That's what maintenance fees/contracts are for.

So SCO is enforcing their IP.
It's their call what they open source not IBM's.
ESR can go gnu-himself.

Use the force

"AOL would be entitled to triple any actual damages found by the court"
IANAL
Treble Damages
Could Netscape/AOL just be seeking a cash settlement from MS?
Please cease and desist the use of chanting letters. Our clients (the RIAA & The Village People) are very upset.
Thank you,

You are confused who the enemy is.
al Qaeda is the prime suspect group for the 9/11 attack. The Taliban "government" provided al Qaeda shelter.
Go back to sleep.
I thought the biggest problem with Biosphere was Pauly Shore.

Cooling and heating of oceanic waters has a huge impact on the weather. What could this do?
Some call me ....... Tim?
This comes from a man that menstration is a sin.
