The reason is that 64 bits are used for the network part and the remaining 64 bits -- automatically derived from the interface MAC address -- comprise the host part. This allows stateless autoconfiguration, which makes IPv6 networks easier to administer.
There are already several open source VMMs, see Xen and plex86.
What makes you think Intel isn't already done designing Vanderpool? If they're not, what makes you think Intel wants/needs feedback from the open source community?
What makes you think someone who writes a VMM could become as famous as Linus? Look how few people use VMware...

It looks just like RHL 9.
These kind of restrictions already exist for sat and cable.
These days, DVI uses HDCP encryption between the box and the TV.
So why don't they run linpack on SETI@Home and submit a result? Hint: It wouldn't work...
NAT only goes away completely after the switch to IPv6 is complete.
An IPv4 address costs less than $1/year; large ISPs pay around $0.30/year/address.
RHEL isn't free, but Fedora Core (the successor to Red Hat 9) is still free.

There are several brand-new Intel clusters on the latest Top 500 list.
They're using 96-port switches.
I read (maybe in Pulver's blog) that Skype is using iLBC.
They would be quite happy to have it in two formats. WMA and AAC, with Fairplay, but Apple just won't share.
What exactly does this mean? Is Apple preventing record labels from also licensing their music to other online services?
The solution to your problem is simple: license your music to iTMS (in AAC format) and to Napster (in WMA format) and all the customers will be happy.
You don't need to talk to a sales rep; Apple has a very informative Web site.
Theoretically, yes. But in reality both VeriSign and the US government are owned by the same people, so it's unlikely.
Too bad the common person can't actually manufacture the chip after designing it.
BitTorrent trackers keep logs of all downloads, just like Web servers do.
If you're curious about how Storage Tank works, check out the paper from the IBM Ssstems Journal.
One cool idea I have for these units would be an optional expansion slot within which you could place some sort of crypto accelerator card.
At 64Kbps, you ought to be able to do the crypto in software. Crypto is cheap enough these days that it should be in every network product.
I would imagine they benchmark a supercomputer once and then devote the rest of its life to real work.
That's called Xen; it was on /. last week.
Trademarks usually don't matter for code names.
Sharing files between OSes isn't trivial either.

Or maybe it's because IBM doesn't make hard drives.
Well, IBM mainframes cost millions of dollars and Intel computers cost less than $1000 these days, so it takes time for things to trickle down.
