We (at Uni.) where playing with this concept some months ago.
I made those videos showing our "demo": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Mcul1-bt8w http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2MVgzJ2tGw8
(The audio is in portuguese.)
We did all the software/hardware project, from the web-server side to the microcontroler board.
Maybe NXP can hire us =D.
I learned to fly inside dreams too. It was kinda evolutive, begining with "long jumps" and now I can do very long controled flights.
Many times Im beeing stalked by some kinda of aliens/big monsters too. What scares me is the fact that almost always I jump thru windows, so if that shit is not a dream I can end killing myself.
Sometimes the dreams feel so realistic that I think I'm living some kind of doomsday, with Independance Day's styled invasions.
My way to know that I'm inside a dream is to ask people around or try to run. When asking people, they don't speech, and when running I can't get speed and tend to turn backward.
It only supports VESA + Generic ATA + AC97 sound and NE2000 LAN. Less hardware support = less space.
Any single floppy linux/*bsd can support this kind of hardware.
DirectX is a MS product, with trademarks, patents and all.
Its interface is public but its implementation is not. So you must reverse engineer to get the same result.
DirectX apps are using Win32 and WinNT API, and many others Microsoft APIs. There's no reason to have DX without a complete Windows layer and it's why we have DX on Wine
You are pretty wrong.
Take any serious OS out there and
And please don't compare a 1,4mb OS with Windows, it supports a bare minimum hardware and you can compile linux to support many more hardware with the same size (excluding the apps).
Maybe the guy lives on a poor country or has very low funds. If this machine is the better he can get for some job, let's help him.
My sugestion is openbsd with a custom kernel, because the generic will eat so much memory. I run a firewall with 1GiB RAM and everytime I check ram usage it is bellow 20M.
Every book I buy is "rent" to my family/friends and my girlfriend
For business, renting books would not be profitable because people will need much more time to read a book than they will need to watch a movie and take the DVD back.
People downloading your book probably aren't going to buy it anyway. They live around the world in places where (1) the book isn't available (2) it costs too many for them.

You are talking about MenuetOS, right?

port v6 Unix to it? Your machine is somewhat comparable to the PDP/11 hardware that that OS ran on.
It's MANY times faster than the PDP11, there are 20 years between them.

Factoring primes is not NP-complete. just NP and EXP. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_NP-complete_problems
Will Wave have ads? Perhaps compulsory ones?
You will feel more comfortable if you don't see all those cables

x86_64 doesnÂt use 2x x86 RAM. Not even the program code. Linux will use nearly 100% RAM all the time. ItÂs because of the caching model.
