Oh please. You just proved the point! They beat Intel in retail sales. That means Joe Consumer who is putting together/upgrading his box is now choosing AMD over Intel. That means that the marketing AMD is using is WORKING. And we all know that whatever a person uses at home is what they talk about at work (or indeed, what they use at work. Its the geeks who build/upgrade their own systems, and its the geeks who purchase/lobby at work). SO, the Dell's of the world are going to have to reexamine their exclusivity contracts..
I've been thinking of doing this, not just with a laptop, but with a few mini-atx machines I have at home. BUT.. noone can tell me the average life cycle (ie Read/writes) of a CF card. Since the media is flash, there has to be some limit to the amount of times you can read/write them. I've been warned by various others doing this not to allow windows/*nix to create a swap file on the CF card, since that would result in unknown numbers of read/writes..
Does anyone know the magic number for this, or is there another viable alternative besites the costly solid-state drives.
Fortunately, the plant was already offline as it failed a safety inspection months ago. They had a 5" hole that had been eaten through some surface or other, IIRC. So, at least there was no chance of the worm causing another 3 Mile or anything (at least, this time)
No, they don't. I registered as a seller, and chose their 'address verification' method. Simply send them $5 and give them some details to verify your address, and boom: you're a seller. no checking account needed. Why did I do this? I don't have a checking account; I hate how banks treat their checking accounts and the consumer gets habitually screwed..
You could try the Linux hardware database (URL escapes me), or you could post your write-ups on the Linux StepByStep site (www.linux-sxs.org) which is entirely about "how I did xx with Linux"...
I really hate to stomp on your tirade, but I've already received my fixed discs from them. They were shipped *overnight* each in its own jewel case and tossed together in one of those bubble envelopes. This was only about 5 weeks after receiving a postcard from them stating that they received my defective discs and would be sending replacements shortly...
Doesn't anyone on the/. team read before posting? This is the same hole that made the front page yesterday concerning the char to int conversion. Just cause one of the BSDs finally acknowleged the issue, it deserves *another* front page story? Jeez... upgrade to sendmail 8.12.9 and get on w/ your life...
you can define 'confBAD_RCPT_THROTTLE' in your config.mc file when {re}building sendmail. this won't get you 100% to where you want to be, but it gets you mostly there
You can have sendmail cal MIMEDefang through its milter interface. MIMEDefang then will call SpamAssassin for you. I do this in linux-sxs.org and it works great. All inbound mail gets a X-Spam-Level header that the user can then filter on.
I was running lilo 0.23.something or other for a while now to boot my 30GB EIDE drive. It should also be noted that this is NOT the official LILO. This is a patch against the "offical" LILO

You and the site both are right (sorta). When you download it, it's a 30-day trial. You have to register to unlock it. Happily, registering is FREE

Dude, MS already bought an AV company. They bought RAV about a month or so ago

This is *exactly* the goal of the Linux StepbyStep site. Check out www.linux-sxs.org
