From the accounts of this summit, it seems like business is doing its usual of trying to get money from wherever it can - no problem. The little that seems to have come out of it surprises me, though. There seem to be at least a few cases where there is a solid DMZ forming between the two camps. Linuxcare and RedHat (and others, probably), in the light I'm shining on them at least, are in the unique position of providing corporate support for OSS products. This is not the only service I think business would like to extract from us, but it does provide them with a buffer. Business wants a knowledgeable resource pool that it can access immediately for product support and bug fixes, while still being able to get the powerful, yet unpredictable support from the open community. It also allows the companies to stay anonymous when asking for help with OSS, that is, if they go through a commercial OSS support vendor. Business wants stability and assurance, right? It looks like that may be taken care of.
What else do they want? Any particular project they'd like to see started could possibly go through the various OSS funds (admittedly not ideal), the bidding trend (not perfect either), or perhaps they could be a little creative and develop a more interesting plan that envelops divers functionality and appeals to many, while still solving their problem. They could trade some of that corporate leverage upon other companies (to open their hardware specs, whatever) in exchange for developing new features. As long as the hype doesn't get into people's heads, it ought to be pretty cool.
Have I been hiding in the closet too much? That would be the coolest thing to ever happen to my desktop, at least until Q3A comes out. He says they're not actually transparent, but is it possible?
The 'everyone wants to be Yahoo' comment brought me to enlightenment. It was a very cool observation, reminds me of the limelight circulating around open source right now, and how it can get into the heads of some...
How do you cool the celerons with those big MSI adapters in there? Are there supercoolers for ppga or are they all bs? Do the retail fans work ok? I would like to oc the celerons, but I need to keep them cool enough, and I don't know if the retails will take care of that...
I heard Q3A was going to support smp. I'm not sure if that will affect the performance - if the accellerator card is the real bottleneck... I think that tidbit helped convince me to buy a dual celeron setup...
This could be an incredibly cool application of holographic displays, but why was this not obvious to someone earlier? They're performing operations similar to what other 3D displays do - interlacing two images, here over different sets of horizontally striped holographic optical elements (HOEs) pointed in slightly different directions. It also has to be viewed "more or less directly in front of the screen." So no one can watch...
What's with these artists? I hear it was an artist that taught the navy how to cast acrylic in 6ft bubbles for undersea exploration...

thats where I saw pseudo-transparent terms. He was using a darkened chunk of the bg image for the term.

I want a clear case to mount my mb and cards in. Does anyone make them?

this thing might actually exist... in theory at least.
Let's take up a collection to start manufacturing them.
