  1. I have three! on Looking Back At NeXT · · Score: 1

    One color slab, one b+w slab, and one turbo cube..

    Amazing how little has changed over the years
    except for speed. (Well I run WindowMaker on
    my Linux Boxen so who am I to talk.)

  2. Computer Museum has closed *( on Geek Pride Hits Boston This Weekend · · Score: 1

    Sometime last year. They wre bought I believe by the Museum of science. I heard that the Museum of
    science was supposed to be installing some of the Computer Museum's exhibits but I haven't been to the Museum of science in a long while.

  3. Foreign markets being more lucrative ? on New chips on the horizon · · Score: 3

    In the long run if they focus on selling a Celeron clone for less to overseas markets, they could end up having a large chunk of worldwide processor processor sales.

    It would (somewhat loosely) parallel how readily Linux has been adopted by countries like Mexico and China as a good product for less.

  4. Salary Differentials in foriegn countries ? on How to Manage Geeks? · · Score: 1

    What is the median salary for an entry level software engineers in England and other countries worldwide anyway ?

    I think that number is significantly higher here in the US than elsewhere....

    Does anyone know ?

  5. The expenditure curve.... on How to Manage Geeks? · · Score: 1

    Just like air filling a vacuum, your spending
    and expenses tend to expand to match your income.

    No wife (or Husband or Partner) required.

  6. Ridley Scott Directing.. on Leo DiCaprio in next Star Wars? · · Score: 1

    He would be a great choice..

  7. The WOMEN can keep geeky by themselves on The engineers behind Phantom and ILM · · Score: 1

    Thanks a lot for caring....

  8. Re:Perps should be arrested. on Star Wars Hack @ MIT · · Score: 1

    The orange tour goes up there every year and
    has been for a long time...So far things have
    been safe so I wouldn't get so worked up about it.

    Besides there is a lot of space on that roof.

  9. Re:if (location==Cambridge_MA) buyers=MIT_geeks; on SuSE gets Mainstream Sales Distribution · · Score: 1

    Not everyone that is a coder in Cambridge is
    an MIT geek... The rest work for startups
    spun off from some MIT project or another...

  10. Re:99% uptime ain't so hot. on Microsoft Challenges Linux community · · Score: 1

    I can't run an NT file server and burn a CD at the
    same time without getting a BSD..

    At least it does that reliably!

  11. In this case ? on Irish Girls Encryption Algorithm (Continued) · · Score: 1

    In what way is this one of the cases where
    redundancy has increased ? A more detailed
    description would be interesting.

    Thanks

  12. She Decided not to Patent it. on Irish Girls Encryption Algorithm (Continued) · · Score: 1

    If she doesn't would anyone else be able to in
    the future, or would it become prior art after
    being published (she said she was planning on
    publishing it for crypto 99.)

    She is awsome!

  13. Does Anyone Have a Recodring of the Trailer ? on Star Wars Episode I Pictures · · Score: 1

    That is, was the trailer broadcast on Tv and
    if so did anyone record it ?

    I know that it is downloadable from the web
    but those are very small.

    I would love to see it if available.

    Thanks
