The problem is that only the niche players do this sort of thing, and they only do it to stand out from the crowd. I've seen/used both the Raite and the Apex players, and they're complete garbage.. Almost as bad as VHS, in terms of image quality. The fact that they're code-free is their only selling point.
Do you have any idea how many companies have already done this? You wouldn't believe how many "U.S." companies have "Offices" in the Cayman Islands, etc, etc.
Thanks for the great quote, man:
"Figuring out that something runs Linux means that it can and will be hacked"
I couldn't have said it better myself. Microsoft should put that quote in their literature.
The Kessel Run involves flying damn close to a black hole, according to the novels. It takes big balls to make a "short" run (i.e. a straighter line)
Han Solo is bragging that he's crazy enough to take an extremely short path, close to the black hole.
Why not on a PC?
The fastest disk subsystems work just fine on a PC. Typical workstation motherboards can support up to 8GB of memory. There are plenty of Firewire, DV, etc, etc, adapters available.. IDE is a stupid choice for this product, agreed.. That doesn't make PCs a bad platform for media authoring.
Do NOT presume to tell me what I can and can't do.. If it doesn't affect you, then go away.
As long as a child is part of a woman's body, then it belongs to her, and she can do with it as she likes.. That's my opinion.. If it offends you, then don't get an abortion. Don't tell other people what they should do.

Do pornography customers have 'fair use' access to a good view of your bedroom when you're bonking your wife/girlfriend?
If they are paying me for that right, then yes.

That's not how the car world is, unfortunately.
Nice thought, though.

That is NOT the issue under scrutiny in Florida. Look into it before spouting off, please.
Umm.. Because the source code is available?
Does it run the Java VM as well?
Not only will it save your life, it will waste cycles on glitzy applets!
Note: No closed-source OS has a problem with the Pentium IV.
Umm.. The Windows CD does work under Linux. Pay attention.
Store shelves, you mean.. Unsold. Heh.

BLINK tags don't exist anymore.
Can you think of an operating system that has more useful error messages? I can't.
Yup. That's why DVD-R rocks, and all the other writeable DVD standards are completely useless.
DVD-RAM can't be played in anything but a DVD-RAM drive.
DVD-R works on any standalone DVD player. Very different product. Much much much cooler.

Got a link? That's an INSANE price for a DVD-R drive. I want it. Now.
You couldn't be more wrong.
How is this a double standard? In the army, if you shoot the enemy leaders, you're a hero.. If you shoot your own, you're a traitor.
In CompUSA, when it says ".28", it doesn't mean DPI, it means dot pitch. .28 means that each dot is .28mm, measured diagonally.

Remember when NT required unusual hardware to run, no VESA, sound cards often didn't work, etc? Times sure have changed.
Oh yeah.. Times sure have changed. Ever tried to install RedHat 7 in a system that boots from an Promise IDE controller?
There are prostitution conventions??? Where do I preregister?
