Well, I leave it up to you guys to figure out what they should do.
Hot swappable is the only thing that was missing for an ATA drive to be used in an Enterprise environment. SATA has hot swappable. Performance should be on par with SCSI in terms of seek time, disk transfer rate, etc. Only thing that is missing is a stupid SCSI ID that you no longer need to set on the drive's jumper. Seems to me to be easier now.
Just wanted to point out that Hitachi (Formerly IBM storage) has yet to release a SATA drive. WD's new drive is ONLY the 2nd SATA drive out there, with the first SATA drive (Seagate Baracuda V) really just a regular ATA drive that is available in SATA version, thus no real hardware improvements cause it was origionally designed with an IDE connection, and needed to still meet the requirments for a normal IDE drive.
Maxtor released their 10K drives. Rapture series drives are limited to 36GB I believe (1 plater), have a 5 year warrenty, and rated for 1.3 million operating hours (I think its 1.3 million, might be wrong). These drives are SATA, and are hot-swappable. And you too can own one for about $140-160. Which when you look at the price of SCSI, its VERY cheap.
Seriously. This is probably one of the most thought out articles I have read. It clearly points out many of the miscommings of the current system and why they need to be changed. It also shows why it is so hard to see things for what they are at that age.
Truely insightful, but sadly I feel that nothing will come of it other then us hear reading it and praising it. If only all high school, middle school and grade school education boards were forced to read it and actually forced to discuss why things are done the way they are, and not simply say "they are done this way because they have always been done this way".
This is also not just related to public schools, even many private schools are the same. I feel a great followup and possible case study should be made to look at tech and trade schools and compair the social structures with public schools. This might easily show that when students are learning things that are pertinent and useful and not just menial, that they have better lives during their school years and possibly through their life.
I would HIGHLY doubt that this could be the cause. First and foremost is that the main engines are not really used in the decent once the shuttle enters the atmosphere. The main engines are used only during the decent manuver for a braking manuever BEFORE entering into the atmosphere. The shuttle is then swung around to enter the atmosphere on its heat shield. The main engines would then not be used in the decent as they would be thrusting the "wrong" way. Only the manuvering thrusters would be used to maintain stability during the actual passage through the atmosphere.
I agree it doesn't make sense. Even by assuming it is suppose to be "rising $5.475" to close at $11.69, $5.754 is not a 57% increase of $6.215 which is what it would have to have started at to close at $11.69
It is also not a 57% increase in the assumption that the cloes value was $116.9.
Yahoo should do better reporting, their own stock quoter lists shows the correct values "+4.25, 57% raise" Linked
Just saying that yeah Duke is nice and all, but mostly from an Arts and Sciences area. Go look at some technical institutions like MIT, NJIT, or even Drexel... Places that focus on engineering and hard sciences... Even some of them might have a double standard, I know Drexel tends to have this, with engineers all taking classes that say "for engineers" and in most of these cases getting less credit while doing more work at the same time.
He is simply pissed because of the way they went about it. The first contact they make to him is through a threat letter to sue him. He didn't have any other contact with them at all. Things have now come to the point in this country that the first contact with anyone is a threat to sue them. THAT is what he is pissed about.
All the power to him for his attitude and response. Maybe, just maybe, someone will discover that you shouldn't send threats to sue someone who has been helping out thousands of people that use the products that you are trying to sell and promote. He has only been promoting the use of the products and the industry by keeping track of information that probably should have been collected and tracked by the PCI-SIG itself.
Its pretty good idea. Easy yo use, and tells you why it chose that license as well as gives an easy to understand description of the license as well as the full detailed license text.
Again well thought out idea that will hopefully help many people use more open licenses now that they can easily find which one to use.
Just wondering, cause I had a $140 Abit board blow 19 capacitors last year exactly 12 months after I purchased it... Needless to say that was the last Abit board I bought, I use ASUS now exclusively.
The only software that DSL needs is Point to Point over Ethernet (PPPoE) software that they use for account managment of users/hosts. Since its not a normal piece of software (well it is now becomming so), it needs to be loaded. I can easily see this being integrated into operating systems so that you don't need to install it seperately.
Like the article says, the problem is insiders working in the theaters who are allowing the movie to be video taped in the first place. If its a hardware solution that is done in the theater, then that means that the people who work in the theaters will be in control and in charge of that hardware security measure from being activated and used. The entire setup would have to be fool-proof to keep the people who work at the theater from allowing the copying, (fool-proof as in, it always activates when a movie is being played, power to the system is completely secured and running on the same circuit as the projector's (to keep them from just going to the circuit breaker and hitting the switch), the emitters will have to be in locations that is it physically impossible to get to to place something in front of them to block the signal (which will be absolutely impossible since they need to be physically located somewhere in the theater and the employee's can easily setup a ladder and block them), the list goed on as well).
Its a huge difference as test pilots from the 1950's and 1960's can and will tell you. One test pilot strapped himself to a rocket sled which went to mach 2 I belive and then stopped it in a pool of water in about 40 feet of braking. He subjected hims self to something like negative 120 G's. He got up and then actually did it again!
At least I believe it was 2010, might be sooner. They need to have at least a hybred or some type of car that does not run on fossil fuels. At least car companies based in the USA, which is Ford, Toyota, Chrystler, etc.
In fact, I believe that they are suppose to at least have 20-30% of their cars sold as some type of alternative otherwise they will be fined large amounts. I might be wrong, but that is what I remember.

and still get modded up :) Going anonymous this time cause don't want to have 2 posts so I can get modded down :)
Ahh, hell, I feel brave today, my karma can take it.

I would say that is affordable.

The Real-Time Testing of Internet Filters in China is reporting conflicting results.
In the recent results box:

Tests were completed within a few minutes of each other (I know because I did them both).
