that must be why they still give the ratings of rocket ships in horse power. Each shuttle booster was something like 1.2 million or billion horsepower right? Plus the shuttles main engines, that should equal out some somewhere around 4 million or billion mules.
So I can't use my computer as a tool to copy someone else's version of a song? I mean I am just useing my computer to recreate a copy of it. Its not like I am stealing anything because the original is still intact, undamaged and in possesion of the origian owner.
If I downloaded it from an ftp site then deleted it from the same site I could see where you might call that stealing although I would consider it more allong the lines of destruction of property.
I just don't like the fact that people call it stealing because it makes it sound worse that what it is. A way of attaching a word that produces strong emotion to try to make something worse than it really is.
Ah, is this the new justification for stealing? I'm starting to see this phrase more and more. \

Thats like the crontab -e (to edit your crontab) and crontab -r (to remove your crontab)
those two are too close together as well. I havn't yet done it but I know someone who has.
Just a few meters away, Microsoft's booth was packed. Lots of people, were looking at the three products Microsoft was presenting there: WebMatrix, a 1.3 MB free ASP.NET IDE, WindowsCE with its shared source code and Windows Services for Unix 3.0. Everything was normal and smooth at their booth, lots of people interested or simply curious.
I second that. I bought a dual board about 4 years ago and it is still running dual 233s I bought a second one about 2 years ago and am still running it now dual 500mhz overclocked 333 celerons. I will be getting a dual athalon soon, it will by a Tyan as well.
starcraft is acually kinda nice on an arcade trackball. quake and other 1st person shooters are not all that great though.
I havent tried Neverwinter nights but I bet that could actually work out quite well.
Then there are of course all the freed and hand made roms available on the net (most of them suck)
of corse the primary use would be to play the 3500 illegal roms that are available to a diligent googler, that would be the primary use of something like this.
I bult my own arcade about 6 months ago. In my quest I went through a lot of trouble and problems of all kinds. I had certian things that I had to have ( 4 player controller, 27" monitor ) and a few things I wanted to have (linux frontend)
After some shopping around I bought a 27" tv an older desktop pc and visited HappControllers to get the arcade items I wanted. Home Depot for lumber. I wanted to use AdvanceMame on this arcade except the tv out support on linux really sux. not to mention the s-video support on AdvanceMame isn't that great. I ended up settling with windows98se running wine32.
The stability isn't great but it does work alright. I haven't seen windows crash during a game yet but between games durring selection and such it hasn't been all that great (long term as this box stays on all the time)
If anyone is looking to do this here is what I would suggest.
hagstorm electronics has a great keyboard encoder ke72t
buy a used arcade (look on ebay sort by stuff near you) make sure it has the size monitor you are looking for and a decent cabinet.
lots of ram and 1.2+ghz if you want to play newer games
64M and 233mhz if you are just in it for the clasiscs.
you, sir, need to go to http://winehq.org/ and read some information. Wine's goal is to have a win32 api on unix. The emulation is just a side effect. when finished you will be able to bring windows code to linux, compile and run native win32 applications on linux. No emulation. This is why it's name is "Wine Is Not an Emulator."
Really I did know this. I was just siting an example of it in the real world. It is really just because while you and I realize this 90% of the world has no clue.

Great, even space has an EULA
It's a space station.
It's too big to be a space station.
I got a bad feeling about this....
read the freaking article:

Ok, name seven then...I dare you...
Not enough of them though. I want mine.
The white speck in the middle of the bird shit...is still bird shit.
you lose man, that is more than one.
I said just one that is like four...
you lose man, that is more than one.
I dared you to name just one...
ok, name two then...
I dare you...
this is about useless what if I want to do something on the pda?
I guess with a linux and X pda this would be great as I could jsut export my display and run with it though.
like what?
I dare you to name even one.
This sounds really cool. Then if it does make the grade just reinstal to the location of your choice (eg / /opt or /usr/local)
Great idea. Why didn't I think of something this simple?
I think you need to check your FM again. I am really sure that it is 100 rounds a second.

Tyan boards are nice.
whoops, sorry. Thanks for the fix.

I just finnished my about 6 months ago. I wish I had some pictures and a real website to put up but I dont.
Do you have a website that I could check out and see what you have done so far?

yea Debian has that ability to. Check out:

Ahh, I get it now. Thanks.
