For future cards, can't some talented hackers figure out a solution? I mean, isn't that what open-source is (partially) about? Before hardware vendors started to 'supply' drivers, coders in the community wrote their own.
...but it's interesting that they're still going to use Win9x on a server, so they can use Win4Lin. I guess WINE isn't quite ready for production usage in an environment like a school... Maybe eventually they'll be able to phase out MS win altogether. (I hope)
A friend of mine once had an IBM 386 that was huge, and rugged as well. That thing was a monster, in that it was barely comparable to today's "laptop." This beast had a keyboard that pulled out and it weighed a ton. It seems to me that most laptop makers are going for smaller, not bigger/more rugged. Getting a bigger laptop seems to be going the wrong direction in their eyes...
It amazing how worked up an AC gets over a joke statement of "BSD is NOT dying"... Why don't you log in and speak your mind, instead of hiding behind the AC wall?
Excuse me Mr. Moderator... how can I be redundant? check the (#) after the date, mine says 2... I was the first to post this for this thread. #1 was a FP!... Mod this up, and learn how to moderate!
I have used many different search engine sites since I began using the internet in 1993. (I know it's not as long as some, maybe most of you) Back then I started with Webcrawler then YAHOO!. After getting easily annoyed with those, I found Altavista, which back then was actually at http://altavista.digital.com. I stuck with AV for a very long time, until I found GOOGLE... Ahhh Goooooogle. What can I say, there's nothing easier, and faster. Plus when I want to do a specific search, I love the option of adding on the/linux or/apple. It makes those 'special' searches that much easier. I'm a Googler for life...
From the pictures, it looks like a piece of junk, all beat up. Half a million dollars? what the hell would you do with it? You can't fix it up, it seems like the type of thing that a materialistic yuppie would buy to say, "I have a mansion, a yacht, a ferrari and a russian space shuttle."
Slashdot Mirror
Does anyone have, or know of a mirror to d/l this?

Maybe slightly Off-Topic BUT...
I was surprised to not see a "Cyborg Bill" icon next to this M$ story. Just a thought.

YES, _that_ one. Google's cache, eh?
I installed Corel Linux once, and it used KDE, not GNOME.
I remember a VERY similar story on /. a few months back. I would post a link, but the /. search tool is down again. (no shock to me)
your investments are belong to us

IIRC, Yellow Dog is based on Redhat's early work to port Linux to the PPC architecture. That's why it's based on rpm.
but at least they hacked up a link to the unofficial apple museum... their link was Like this
Here's the 'cleaned-up' link from me: Enjoy

Netcraft shows that it's Linux, FYI...
"The Connective Linux 7.0"

I guess the translator doesn't realize Connectiva as a brand name, or maybe if you speak english, it is called "Connective"
