because 1 of the hundreds of processes was probably hung and had a grace period to get its stuff together before it got killed. its not because there's a timer in the computer or because the temperature is off or because it needs a tampon.
thats just BAD PROGRAMMING.
ps. most of the times you have that problem is with old windows machines on networks (unmapping drives, etc.) or with spyware installed
I've NEVER had my phone line go out. EVER. (knocking on all wood surfaces within 1 square mile...brb)...ok I'm back. And I'm on Sprint. So I'm really surprised I've never had problems.
I've had problems with Dreamweaver saving (error in a JavaScript file that actually does the file i/o). My company's web services department has decided to use HomeSite (comes with DWMX) instead of DreamWeaverMX because of some other bugs they found (destroying code bugs).
And nobody takes the "hippy" type folk who try to stop this. They seem to keep the relationship between capitalists (oil, other minerals, etc.) somewhat in balance though.
Candidate#1 - IBM Candidate#2 - The Open Source World Candidate#3 - Microsoft Candidate#4 - Government
IBM has the giant gorilla approach with massive marketing, a broad product range, and ties to open source. They have the people and the power to get it done.
The OSS world would have professionals getting it done (those tired of waiting on others). A programmer/hacker with an IQ of 200 is going to get it done for his company and release into the wild. We have the man power BAR NONE.
Microsoft will just pour its money into the blue/green GUI Windows2k7 or whatever and have a proprietary, unstable, expensive, closed source release that a lot of people will purchase because it has a certain product name and color scheme.
The government is a long shot because they're usually reliant on others but they do have large amounts of man power and tax money to toss around.
End product being: Proprietary software and services will destroy the market. Open protocols and standards are a must for it to be as truly amazing as it should be.
The difference I see between the people complaining about the lack of work and the people working in the IT industry is USUALLY the people working know what they're talking about, know how to do their job, and work for a moderate amount of cash.
The CCNA/MSCE C+ this A+ that guys I know are working at Office Max waiting on the 6 figure job thats going to set them free.
Don't waste your time with videogames. I've seen handguns go for $500 and less. The youth is MUCH more concerned about dancing pixels than the reality outside. Cut your hair, buy a handgun, and welcome to the real world!

If you're not worried about doing something perfectly correct the FIRST time, then your product is going to reflect that.
Even with ECC, you will render something and want to change it. TRUST ME. You don't want to render something 4 times because of no ECC, find out you have to change something (artistic, not flawed influence on this decision), then render it another 8-12 times before its final.

Don't forget you MUST activate your copy of MS-Voip otherwise you can just sit there and watch him die.

yes because when i have my leg cut off, i'm going to rely on chance on whether or not i'm going to die by bleeding to death.
XP is coded to do that. not on purpose. but it is.
are you really surprised that you found a bug in software thats thousands of lines long???
computers do EXACTLY what you tell it to do. you just don't know what you're telling it to do (with the software)..
a zero is a zero, a 1 is a 1.
if the hardware is faulty, and you don't know it, it may appear "moody".
Nope. Why?
Guy A : "OMG I just cut off my leg! Call 911!"
Guy B : "Can't man the latest Windows worm is destroying the 'net"
Guy A : "Oh ok I'll wait.

Either way, step in right direction, no?
If you see his screenshots, they seem impressive. I'm at 85% right now and plan on doing some testing tonight with it.

1 less reason to get stuck with DreamWeaver MX at work
I had the dish for a short 3 months. I live in FL. Weather can, will, and does affect the signal quality.
It rains every day in the summer here and signal is almost always out. This is usually the only time I want to watch TV anyways.
Seek, Rape, Destroy. All in the name of money.
It's part of capitalism...

unlimited can be interpreted different ways...
lawyers tell me the difference is between unlimited and DEDICATED.
3 of 5 stars and its a SlashVert???
I think its just another SlashWhine from someone trolling about how Slashdot sucks but spends their life on it anyways.

I personally use both.
It really depends on what you're using it for/with and what the final medium will be.

You can't touch policitians when they take money from ...
but this is someone who is helping kill others.
I must be blind but I didn't see where it said they turned people down. I also saw there were ~1k people were there. Elitism is HORRIBLE!

What was the approximate cost/time compared to the fees you paid per seat of MS Office?
Visualization (Rendering) ;-)
Distributed computing
Power to scale (1u capable of what only a current 2u can do)
Science
Encryption (Quantum, brute force cracking, etc.)
Databases (often overlooked)
Doom 3
I'm having a LAN party over my christmas holiday! ;-)
Seems their server is getting its buttox pummeled.
Awesome! Down here in Florida we have cottonmouths!
