A very bad sign in SGI's response to delisting on the NYSE. Unless a company is in deep trouble, they would normally do a reverse split to bring the stock price back over $1. In this case, chances are that SGI will be filing bankruptcy in the near future and cancelling all existing equity. Then create new shares in a debt for equity swap. No need to bother with a reverse split, since they would be delisted when they went bankrupt anyway.
Pretty sad, SGI pioneered some wonderful technology in its time. Too bad they never figured out business rule #1, ideas don't mean squat unless they make money.
Melinda Gates must be one hell of a women. Until he got married, his charitable contributions were non-existent. Since then, his/their contributions have become sigificant.
If my aging memory serves correct, one of the key issues that killed off America's SST project was potential damage to the Ozone layer. Has this problem been solved, or simply ignored?
Judging from this summer's releases, the studio's have obviously found the perfect solution, only release material nobody would want to copy. So far, it appears to be working. No wonder cinema and DVD sales have fallen off so much.
was when they announced the Ultra's. Once again, Sun made a remarkable turn around, and climbed to heights previously unseen. It was the third time Sun had returned from near death. Maybe this will be the forth. Sun has consistently built some of the best platforms out there, time to shed another skin and do it again.
Do some research, over time Sun has done more for Open Source than any other company.
in the country. You may remember the recent headlines where they finally wired a Lousiana town for POTS service, for the first time. Maybe this will be a wakeup call for some of the officials down there.
I have found that exposure to politicians increases aggressive thoughts, aggressive behavior and angry feelings along with substantial loss of mass in my wallet.
Lee died in 1989. Although still way too young, he had probably made most of his major achievments and his children were adults. Joe, on the other hand, died in a tragic accident in 1977, just as he was really hitting his stride. I don't know if he had any children. Had Joe lived, I suspect that troff would have ruled the world, or a direct decendant. Sadly, after Joe died, development of troff pretty much froze solid. Every memo and publication I have ever read from Joe Ossanna indicated, to me at least, that he would have been a true giant in the computing community.
Quite a bit could be served off such a platform. The first website I administered ran off a 50MHz Sparc with 64MB of memory. Static content would not be a problem at all. I'm afraid java would be out of the question, though.;->
contributions to open source, they will have a leg to stand on. As it stands right now, I know of none. Their use of open source has been almost purely parasitic.
Microsoft still suffers from the "All Star" syndrome. Hire the best people money can buy, and the rest will take care of itself. Sorry folks, it doesn't work this way. The most productive teams I have ever worked in have consisted of the most gifted, and the most brain dead, with a generous distribution in between. You need a broad view, those who can see universe, the sky, and the ground below us. All make a substantial contribution to a truly great product.

Before the hard disk, there were drum drives. Compared to their raw bandwidth, their seek times were amazing.
Speaking of bad nightmares, I recently found out that the person who played Jar-Jar was from my home town. Oh, the shame of it all.

Absolutely amazing, almost a quarter million dollars in one night.
is that they don't work. Visit your local DMV for a clear demonstration.
American Bell.
They actually started using it on internal product before the name was shot down. I think I have a piece buried somewhere in my basement.
I was referring to the original USA SST program that was announced by JFK on June 5th, 1963.

shoot RIAA, and take them out of our misery.

There are some movies that should never be remade, Capricorn One is one of them.

Try a Sun 4/280. 1.2KW just for the chassis, another 1.2KW for a pair of 660MB SMD platters.

God help us if someone ran FreeBSD on routers, oops, oh wait, someone does. Some little company known as Juniper. JunOS is derived from FreeBSD.

Joe Ossanna and Lee McMahon. Both made significant contributions which made UNIX, as we know it today, possible.
Another important contributor, Michael Lesk, is currently on the faculty at Rutgers University.
I'm sure there are many more that deserve recognition.

Please correct me if I am mistaken.
Never, ever, ever, get in the way of a stream of State revenue. One way, or the other, you are going to get burned.
Rule #2
Unless you are willing to provide the State with a larger stream of revenue.
Rule #3
( only applicable to large corporations )
Unless you are willing to remove an even larger stream of revenue from the State to another.
The material in question is Nextel 312 SF 2600. Asbestos is flammable in comparison.
