And the intel p4's also cost 3-4x more than athlons.
Oh.. benchmarks kinda do simulate something called real life. Which is why the memory bandwidth test is useless in 80% of cases. Maybe the other benchmarks actually are useful. . .
Just another bitch pimping for intel,
I have a shotgun, a shovel and 30 acres behind the barn.
meanwhile, athlon 1.33's are going at $217 1.2's going at $191. And since intel is cutting the smp pins on the p4's, and you can over clock them (unlike the p4). When amd releases dual processor boards, intel will be really in the shit...
oh well..

Overheating? It is called a heatsink and fan.
Thermal grease also helps, you know, the white/silver/copper shit that costs $2 an oz?
Mounting the friggin heatsinks right would also be a plus here. Using one meant for the processor would help too, i.e. not a heatsink for a pentium pro.
I suppose geniuses like you who burned up their athlons/tbirds are bitter.
AMD makes good products, you just have to know a few basic things about them, like how to properly install a processor.
Oh, the P4 throttles when it reaches a specific wattage, that means, even though it is running cool, safe temperature, it still throttles down.
oh.. and in case you didn't pass grade 3 math, "a bit" is not 1.5ghz to 750 mhz, thats "half", which isn't "a bit".
What the hell is with this intel fetish with some people? Intel, at the current time, makes sub standard stuff. AMD makes really great, and cheap products. Your choice should be clear.
And FYI, a p4 will cook just as good as an athlon if you do something stupid.
Fuckhead.
I have a shotgun, a shovel and 30 acres behind the barn.
why fuel air explosives never really got off the ground. The russians used massive ones during chechnya (i.e. felt on seismometers in the states) which, sans radiation, pretty much have the same effect.
Shit, pretty much anyone with one or two thousand gallons of propane can make one....
oh well..
Just bringing this up, because "tactical" nukes need not be deployed - just one detonation, (or several, if you want, you can "align" the explosions to create extreme force in some places) will do the trick - just ask the russians.
I have a shotgun, a shovel and 30 acres behind the barn.
you catch icbm's on a day to day basis? Or have found a way to prevent a giant cloud of radioactive death killing you? After all, we can just drop a nuke beside you, in the path of prevailing winds, load the nuke up with a few extra pounds of cobalt, shit, hundred extra pounds, and then launch.
Same shit, different pile.
You retarded or something?
Besides, russia has sold nukes to pretty much everyone. Terrorists don't use icbms - trucks parked outside federal buildings / targets work quite well.

Pretty much guaranteed money for doing nothing. I somehow doubt that a company with this business plan would go under, perhaps "sell" the product to the VP's new company, but by no means is the company going to give a guaranteed source of income

O-keedokee. Hitler was an asshole, and pretty much fucking nuts.
And, when I was in Poland this summer, me, a cousin or two, and several friends beat the shit out of a group of nazi's that were spray painting swastikas on some buildings. (The police came but did not intervene - that was cool, kinda chilling, but cool.)
I despise nazis, or skinheads, or any other of these "master race bullshit" type groups, this includes cults.

Seriously, the german government is a bit too ansty in its patrolling of Neo-nazi groups.
I can understand the bit about not having groups of this shit form up, but you can't play wolfenstein? a game where the object is to KILL the nazi's (I hope everybody realized that in 199?...)
And as for ideas, oh boy, we white folks have a long and proud history of mass murder; Hitler was a small fish when it came to psycopaths in office.
The big boys were;
Stalin (probably the biggest, in history perhaps, pretty quiet coverage of this, dunno why - speculations?-)
The british during their "expansionist" days, stopped about ww2 ish, though they still routinely engaged in torture of civilians, and treated some people (cough, blacks, cough) as VERY inferior people.
Whoever (lotsa people play in this one, including the US govt), pretty much exterminated the Indians from north america. I seem to recall plagues and bounties for scalps, among other things.
These things (and more, I have to go to sleep sometime) were all fucking terrible. In most cases MANY times worse then World War II as a whole!
Please, please, don't be so naive.
Hitler was not as bad as some of his fellow psycopathic murderers.
Ironically, if you mention the Roman Empire, or Ghengis Kahn, etc... people seem to be cool with it.
Ok, free speech. Most/.'ers are concerned about it, some ACLU fetish that dominates the board.
So, when they read stories about palestinian protestors getting killed by israili's, they develop a certain attitude - " Oppressive israli's" etc... Same thing with the hostility to the police (and, I theorize, to most authority figures, including their own bosses, whatever)
Look - The Israili government has fired fucking ANTI TANK ROCKETS at palestinian government members that spoke out against the war. Yeah, the palestinians are shelling / carbombing, but the current "tally" is

Monday April 9 4:49 PM ET
Since the violence erupted on Sept. 28, 462 people have been killed, including 379 Palestinians, 64 Israeli Jews and 19 others.
Its a day old, methinks 2 palestinians have been added to the list. One cop and one doctor.
http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/nm/20010410/wl/mide as t_leadall_dc_1436.html
Perhaps stories like that are why there is some attitude of hostility.
To be honest, I was going to throw balls of napalm, but I think more will be accomplished this way.

Fuck, I wouldn't willingly give the fuckin' CIA/NSA all this info - and they have some of the most secure servers / installations in the world (or MI6, etc. ..). Ironically, they probably have the information already, but whatever.

Now, cameras in your home, those wouldn't be possibly used by law enforcement agencies in "certain situations", i.e. the "Civil Responsibilites Act of 2003". Or even worse, "bundeled" in the bottom of some of Mr. Warren Hatch's (some fucking party, Utah) "fast food restaurant food quality" bill, or some other, similar action. Screw cameras outdoor, people will actually buy cameras (well, we will in either way, tax or buy) that will be used for surveillance.
Online advertising will be taken to a whole new level - how about we give MS our DNA!! they will tell us that we should buy brand X breast cancer medication instead of Brand Y (this would be really cool is cancer sites were different for different people)

I just can't wait...
Me and half of my dept just got "temporarily laid off" (i.e. we will hire you when the recession ends), so that might explain the hostility. Didn't get last weeks paycheck either...
