Chances are the 5.5GHz Intel chip with the 190W heat dissipation isn't going to work well for a notebook. Hence AMD's new low-power 3GHz CPU would probbably find a market in notebooks for sure.
Also, numerologically speaking, 42 boils down the 6 (4 + 2), which is, among other things, the number of man, also a time of recieving gifts or reaping rewards.
The Casio Databank came out around 94 or 95 actually...around the time of Windows 95. Bill Gates wore his brand spankin' new Microsoft/Casio Databank watch at the Windows 95 product announcement speech.
The top links are for 'featured sites' (~= 'ads') and 'sponsored sites' (~= 'ads') and after you get past the ads, the results are roughly similar to google's results, with linux.org and redhat.com being in the same #1 and #3 spots, and linuxjournal surpassing linux.com as the #2 spot.
...that there is no such thing as an uncrackable computer system. At least if this woman and her associates have all the m4d l33t sk1llz they're claiming.:)
I mean these things are Athlons! Heck, they're saving money just from the fact that they'll never have to turn on the furnace again!
Did you guys notice from the pics that there doesn't seem to be any fans in the holes on the sides? Are they crazy? These are Athlons. I hope they put enough fans in those things.
5.5 Gflops, I dunno if it can really do that, but...uh..the point is that it's the first *supercomputer* to break the $100/GFLOP barrier. The Playstation2, last I checked, isn't a supercomputer, it's a videogame platform.
The difference between SCO and other companies that have put their copyrighted material into the GPL is SCO didn't do it. SCO is not the one that put in these derivative works, which, as SCO has maintained, these companies were not allowed to do pursuant to their license. SCO is not the one that put its copyrighted System 5 source code into the GPL. It was another Unix licensee that violated the terms of their licensing agreement. So the difference is that SCO didn't say, "Here is my copyrighted material, and I'm knowingly and willingly giving it to you under the GPL. Here's my copyrighted work."
Yeah, they didn't KNOW any Unix code was in there. 1+ Million Lines out of 3-4 Million lines, and they had NO CLUE it was in there. Right. Uh, I think Heise's reality check just bounced.
Group." You'll see copyright IBM; you'll see copyright any other UNIX licensee, but it's not coming from us. The difference is that other companies have donated their copyrighted material, and they did so knowingly, and they're free to do that. But you're not free to take somebody else's copyrighted or otherwise protected material and put it into the GPL and suddenly it's for everybody.
Nevermind that one example of the code they showed, the stuff with the malloc() code in it (which, if not public domain, is easily BSD license) says Copyright SGI on it, not Copyright IBM on it. They're suing the wrong people!
Checks? I have direct-deposit from IBM. After how much they've paid me to bash SCO here on Slashdot and everywhere else, I think I'm just gonna take the money about buy SCO...;)
Or maybe they do. Perhaps they'll violate the GPL by distributing Samba and not distributing the source. Or perhaps they'll even go so far as to distribute a MODIFIED Samba without source. THat would even be worse.
There's lots of programs, at least in the U.S., where you can get an MBA in one year. The University of Michigan and Central Michigan University both offer such programs and they are designed for working professionals and executives who want to get their MBAs out of the way quickly.
Unlike the world of MCSEs and A+ certifications, you don't go and "get" a degree. You earn a degree by learning important skills. He is not going to school just to get a piece of paper. In the case of an MBA, he will learn important management skills that take many years of real-world experience to learn. In business school, that take 1 to 2 years to master many of the skills.
Oh, whatever. Skills, schmills. Anyone can get an MBA, and it's still all about what you can regurgitate, just like an MCSE or A+ certification. Gimme a break.
Slashdot Mirror
Well, apparently Mr. Gates, your best isn't good enough, now is it?
Informative? $0.0007 == 0.07 cents. D'oh!
Sound like anybody else we know? :-P
(Only one slashdot reader was seriously injured due to the posting of this comment)
;)
Due to his girlfriend slapping him?
Don't forget SameGame and Tetris! Oooh!
Uhh...yeah...some of us will for 2.6.1 or 2.6.2... the 2.x.0 releases have traditionally been quite buggy. ;)
Where have you been? I've had a 64-bit machine for almost 5 years now. ;) It's even been EOLed since July 2002.

Can you say prior art? The HP 95LX ran MS-DOS in 1991, even though it's not credit card sized, according to this judge it would be infringing right?

Does anybody remember a T.V. show called "Space: Above and Beyond"? It was pretty derivative and was cancelled after one season,
Derivative (or inspired, however you want to put it) off of the longest-running WWII-based TV series, Combat! from 1962.
So...what...are they pink? Do they have pictures of Tinky Winky on them? Or what? :)
You're KIDDING, right?
Let's see here...

Can you imagine .... oh wait, those Beowulf jokes are WAYYY outdated aren't they? Can you imagine if we had a GRID of those? :)
No, but I'd really really like to figure out a way to port Linux or NetBSD to the thing... :)
Not only is she smart, but she's damned cute too! She's got my vote! Oh, wait, I don't live in California. Damn. :)
