If you like ESXi Hypervisor, try Proxmox VE, it's got features you only get with the VMware full versions (HA, backup, live migration), what's not to like?
Amazon recommends for age 18 and up, which is probably a bit conservative, but the book summary mentions building on algebra, so unless the 9 year old is profoundly gifted (which is a possibility, of course) I would think the book would be too advanced.
BTW, I'll add my vote for Scratch. Also, Mindstorms is intended for ages 10+, of course that may be adjusted down with mechanical *and* language giftedness but I find it's more than what my 7yo is comfortable with. There is a simpler LEGO product called WeDo for ages 7-12 (http://www.legoeducation.us/eng/categories/products/elementary/lego-education-wedo), it's for the education market but I've seen it available online. It's also a touch less expensive. Interestingly, there is an option to program it with Scratch (http://info.scratch.mit.edu/WeDo).
Nice try, but if the sensor is bad (shorted?), or if the high bit in the memory cell where ServoPosition is stuck high [and they aren't using ECC) you're still in trouble with your fix.
What you are talking about (a new OS based on BeOS) is Cobalt, which nobody wanted, not even Palm.
BeOS had some nice ideas, but if it was really that great they wouldn't have gone out of business.
Case in point: it was supposed to be so great with video, but personally, on a PIII 750, I found that mplayer on Linux performed a lot better than VideoLAN on BeOS. If the situation was reversed, I would have bought it. Alas.
I think "deconstructed" is what they had in mind (in the loose sense of "analyzed"), using literature as a metaphor, but "dismantled" makes a better headline.
The nc6000's were great, but practically every nc6220 and nc6320 I've bought lately have had some sort of power problem (AC Adapter, battery, or charging circuit on the system board)
Most of them have been from HP's refurbished division, but still.
At least the cases have some metal to them (Note: Magnesium (HP) or Titanium (Lenovo) "composite" means, "mostly plastic"
Hopefully they have that fixed now that they seem to be retiring those models, but now I'm stuck with no laptop with a builtin serial port. Working on making a custom USB-to-serial adapter with a voltage doubler to make old equipment happy.
LinuxDefender runs Linux off of the CD, but uses Captive NTFS to mount the NTFS partitions on your hard drive and scan them. (You'll need an XP license to be able to use XP SP1 to extract the NTFS drivers--if you use FAT32 that won't be an issue.)
How hard would it be to write an OS which could address both CPUs and pass instructions to the most suitable processor?
I would say industrial-strength hard, given that there isn't even any drivers (actually an application called "PC Setup") for the PC Compatibility Card for (pure) 32-bit operating systems, just to be able to copy data back and forth between two independant operating systems over the PCI bus, see here for more info.

Intersystems' Caché (while not strictly an RDMS ) projects child classes as tables, with the attributes common with the parent also appearing as fields in the parent table, see http://platinum.intersystems.com/dev/devsqlproject ion.html .
Actually, the stuff on the website is pretty tame, compared to the articles relating to Linux from the newsletters he's excreted that I've been unfortunate enough to have been forwarded.
Does this mean that we can, for example, get things like rdesktop and VNC to be able to accept the extended-ASCII (+number pad...) characters that Windows uses?
Some of those don't map to printable characters in iso-8859-1, so entering them I found to be practically impossible.
I'm in NW Lehigh County (= probably the most rural area), and I get 800 Kbps bidirectional from Blue Ridge Cable, measured speed almost always ~80 KBps for downloads, from Blue Ridge Cable / PenTeleData.
Where I live, the CO doesn't even have a DSLAM AFAIK, so DSL is completely out of the question.
RCN and Service Electric/PenTeleData seem to be the players closer to Allentown/Bethlehem, I know a couple people who have them and they seem happy.

Looking at the sample chapter at http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/matthias/BTLS/sample.pdf seems to confirm this.

I thought I saw something on TV about 10 years ago using zeolites, this PDF mentions it http://www.nrel.gov/vehiclesandfuels/ancillary_loads/pdfs/heat_cooling.pdf

Or it's a very sophisticated decompression hardware and software, all rolled up in one.

In practical terms, anyway.
For example, consider CMIP (SNMP's big brother). In theory, anybody can implement standard X.711 and yipee! high-end management bliss.
So find me a toolkit that costs less than $30,000.
Makes a copy of Microsoft Office look pretty cheap, no?

Wouldn't that be strPost = "First" ?

You probably should know a little M or Caché to do this I would think...
I second that.

I mean, M...?
(I use IS ObjectScript myself, real hard-core M gives me the chills)
Any way to update from Fedora Core 1 without downloading the .isos?

Shouldn't this be called Rubik's Tesseract?
That is, if we can get a a licensing deal with Erno. . .
This may be the first documented serious reference to Gilligan's Island :-)
