That machine was under development by the Cray Computer Corporation (CCC), which went bankrupt. What Tera bought was Cray Research. Two different companies, and Cray Research never bought the remainders of CCC. The two companies had split when they decided that they didn't have the resources to develop two new machines at the same time. Seymour Cray went with the new company to develop the Cray-4.
I thought that was partly the point of the takeover. Spend a few bucks and get a great name, even if it has been abused of late. As to why they might want Cray's Research, In 1994 the CRAY-4 was operating at a clock rate of 1 GHz before Seymour Cray had to abandon it. Here's hoping Tera/Cray at least re-evaluate some of his designs.
Definitly not worth if you have to pay for the games also, $50 a pop.
There is the Dream Library, which will allow you to play old genesis/neo geo games on your Dreamcast, at $1 for 2 or 3 days. There were some very enjoyable games in these formats, and if that will be part of the deal, then it isn't *too* painful. Anyway, I'm looking forward to chu chu rocket and hopefully Power Stone 2 against remote players, and perhaps after that how about a networked Crazy Taxi? Doubt you'll see Linux ports of any of them.
IPv4, in general, has already been extended like crazy... why not just work towards developing and migrating to IPv6 instead?
Even if it was decided tomorrow to use IPv6 instead of IPv4, how long will it be before it propagates across the net? Most home users will need a new OS. Microsoft Research have a preliminary version of a IPv6 implementation available, but it's early days yet, and unlikely to end up in any consumer OS for a while. Additionally, a translation layer such as this is not likely to help much as there will have to be legacy support, and this may well be exploitable.
OK, if something like Trinoo or TFN is producing a DDOS, how can we tell the attacking boxen apart from the legitimate ones? If I'm a customer on the same subnet as a rooted client which may or may not report the same IP address through a firewall, I'm not coming back to your site if I get a message suggesting I am involved in a DDOS.
Of course, if it works on top of Linux, I hope to see some efforts in getting it to work on top of one of the *BSD's and other free systems.
I don't think Linux will be in the mix for long. I thought the point was that this box will allow developers to create content/apps for the new Amiga, while the computer is still being developed in a similar style to Sony's PSX2 development kits. It's not finished product, but part of a transition from AmigaOS Ontop Linux Ontop X86 > AmigaOS On X86 > Amiga On New Amiga chipset.

Not true. We're gonna abstract the DB dependance, and perhaps even the dependance on *Apache*
Whoa! You mean, like objectify the whole lot, so it's truly scalable and portable? Or, is it all a conspiracy to move over to ASP/SQL and rebrand to either http://slashdot.microsoft.com or http://slashdot.linux.com? #8^p
Here's a trick for Mac users (may work for Windows, but I haven't tried it): get a copy of the Quicktime Player from Quicktime 2.5 or 3.0 if you don't like the big, brushed-steel look of 4.0's default player. Works like a charm.
What do you mean? Are you suggesting installing 2.5/3 *over* 4 to wreck the UI? Otherwise, isn't this likely to damage the Sorenson codec, or at least the functionality of it within QT? If it's not damaging, it sounds great. Does it kill that fscking popup as well?
OK, If you're linking to another site's content, where are you making your cut from? If I was tickets.com, I'd be trying to get customers to buy through me, not ticketmaster. Why would I be acknowledging my competitors existence, let alone content?
I think that if it gets to the point where this goes crazy...the comp. geeks will unite to use a different protocol or something.
I think we're here. Gnutella & Napster are significant attempts to rebuild the net as it once was. MSN & AOL are Corporate America's attempts to do the same, but it's a different audience. I think we should be embracing the ideals of Blacknet, Freenet & Freedom, and turning against the likes of Amazon & Etoys. Perhaps this embraces the zeitgeist better than we could have imagined.
EA, I can understand why they might be pissed. Their items could be copied to CD-R, from PSX/PC format. What about Nintendo, who put out stuff on cartridge? Are we talking pirate cartridges here? Same for Sega, IIRC, Dreamcast games can be pirated, but it's gonna cost 10G for the hardware to do it, so it kind of puts off the casual pirate. Is this about piracy, or are Nintendo/Sega getting heavy with people reselling their cartridges, as I seem to think they were threatening something similar in Japan.
Of course, a college can easily shut off a port on a managed hub, but for AOL, maybe Sprint, MCI, et al could just sever any links out to the rest of the world until they comply... that would be pretty funny (I can see the even dumber commericials now... "Now with re-activted internet connectivity!").
Perhaps this is what they actually want. A couple of months back, there was the odd CERT notice about 'Promiscuous Browsing'. For AOL to turn back into a Bulletin Board would keep their users within bounds. This time it's a global BBS, and with exclusive 'Time Warner' content not available elsewhere, it would have the edge over MSN.

And speaking of old Dr. Who episodes, as soon as I heard that background noise in "The Cube", I knew what was going on - thanks to watching "The Horns Of Nimon", a key to time episode of Dr. Who.
Naah, The Horns Of Nimon was after The Key To Time storyline, which ended with the Armageddon Factor.
Why doesn't anyone even know of 'ExistenZ'? It is far better than 'The Matrix', but from the same genre... Go see it! Other good movies are 'Pi' and 'The Cube'.
eXistenZ has the rather disturbing bio-machinery in it, that's David Cronenberg for you though. It put me off. Pi, I just didn't like. I assumed it was the first part of a two part story. the second part being called 'sh'. And The Cube I haven't seen, but isn't it a Twilight Zone knock-off?
A complete platform for the rapid development of sophisticated web-based applications. Chili!Soft ASP includes: VBScript and JavaScript scripting languages
Oh well. Looks like it does support VBScript. Look Ma! I'm a Unix progammer now...
