Yeah, or just call tech support. If your x360 needs to be replaced, they overnight you an empty prepaid overnight box. Drop your x360 in the box, ship it back, they'll repair or replace it, and overnight it back to you. The whole process takes about a week.
Sounds like a great service policy to me, and a hell of a lot easier than filing a lawsuit.
Most bulbs cost $300-$400, and you'll get 3000-4000 hours out of almost all of them. That means you'd have to watch over 8 hours of TV a day to burn out a bulb in 1 year. That's a whole lot of TV watching per day.
Actually, you might see quite a benefit upgrading to 2k or XP, since they both have much better power management support. Win98 doesn't even support the HALT instruction, so your system is sitting their running at pretty much 100% CPU usage all the time. I upgraded to WinXP on my 5 year old laptop with a K6-III+/400, and the battery life went way up, and the system runs much cooler. Win2k/XP are also much better at handling frequent PC Card swapping, something I find myself doing quite frequently.
There are 3rd party apps that added the CPU idle feature win9x/Me, such as CPUCool.
Possibilty 1) Linksys modified gcc themselves, but they only used it internally, so they don't have to provide the source.
Possibilty 2) Broadcom modified gcc, and provided it to linksys, who used it to generate code. If Linksys asks for the source code, Broadcom must provide it for them, but they aren't required to give it to anybody else.
In either case, the modifications to gcc are not required to be made public.
Not entirely true. They were only looking for nVidia specific cheats, and they happened upon an ATI cheat as well. Who knows how many ATI cheats they will find once they start investigating ATI's drivers?
I'm making over 40k with paid overtime, so it ends up being around 50k. Plus a benefits package that is second to none. I did turn down a job a couple of weeks ago that was 20k a year with no benefits. Not a chance I was going to take that job, I could have made more at McDonalds.
I graduated with a Computer Engineering degree at the end of Decemeber, and after three long months of searching, I finally got a great job and am starting tomorrow. According to some of the recruiters I've talked to in the past couple of weeks, they are starting to see an increase in the number of jobs available in the field. If I can get a job with little real world experience in a town that has had hundreds (maybe thousand) of layoffs in the tech field, things must be looking up.
They became illegal when they started selling them with copyrighted code already on them. Selling modchips themselves without code won't get you in trouble (though it might make some people unhappy), but selling them with a BIOS already on them makes it illegal.
Logitech MX700. Drop the mouse in the base (also the receiver), and it charges the batteries in around 30 minutes. I get around 3-4 days on a full charge. And it doesn't lag, thanks to FastRF. I've got one, and its the best mouse I've ever owned. No more mouse cord snagging on everything.
I believe they failed to metion infrared, because infrared is usually considered part of the light spectrum, hence the terms "infrared light" and "ultra-violet light".
I'm sure they do, but since they have been hacking at the XBox for quite a while, they probably have one of the first gen modchips that don't support a lot of the newer features available on something like the X2.
Actually, he could be interviewed, because his fiance(wife?, gf?) is allowed to use the internet for him. Slashdot could send her the questions, Mitnick could write down the answers, and she could email them back to Slashdot.

Do you have your system overclocked by any chance? I have an overclocked system that runs fine in windows, but fails with a CRC error when it tries to load the ram disk for the linux install. Slowing down the system fixed this problem

I don't think the 7000 (VE) cards are supported in Doom3. The game only supports Radeon 8500 cards and higher.
It was in the PC Magazine review that leaked out last week or so, but these are the 4 paths:
NV10
NV20
R200
ARB2

because as of right now, I can't load the page.
Wow, quite possibly the funniest thing I've heard in years.
:)
Good show.
Also why don't most normal American's a have a problem with Bush yet?

Because we shudder to think what would have happened had Gore become president.
Yes, the do.
No, they dont, and here's why.

Selling modchips is legal here in the US also. Selling modchips with copyrighted code (i.e. BIOSes) is not.
Read the article.
They've been selling modchips. Probably ones with a BIOS already on them. Pure Genious.

I live in Iowa and actually own a legal copy of Win98, so I'll be expecting my $40 check any day now :)
