  1. well duh on Where Are The Founders Of The Dial-Up Revolution? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    the revolutionaries never make any money. they care too much about their ideas to be hardassed enough to profit. its always the people who come around later that just see a business opportunity.

    if the stock were already full of feces (being that it is from SCO), wouldnt it then be worthless as TP? unless you want to market some uber-stinky TP to do someones front yard up in of course.

    When is printing going to be unified?

    not soon.

    i would propose that since linux is developed by the geeks and nerds, there is an inherent disdain for hardcopy. as such the printing part is added at the last second if at all, and is done simply because it should be there.

    RIAA SUES ARTISTS

    NEW YORK -- In a surprising twist of events, the RIAA has sued the artists themselves for producing works which are pirated. This comes fresh on the heels of the MPAA filing an injuction against 4 major films studios to halt production on movies the public does not care enough about to see in the theatre, but mind-numbing enough to want to see, leading to rampant piracy. Sources close to the RIAA expect this to be the death of popular music as we know it.

    sort of. it was only around with the G2 ipods (g1 didnt support windows at all, g3 is both in the same box). at that point in time, you bought either a windows or mac ipod. now, you buy the box and it works with either platform (but not both at the same time )

    at the time when nintendo began changing their hardware (GBP, GBC, GBA) they were the only game in town, which means that backwards compatibility was merely "nice" instead of "necessary".

  25. Re:The joke's already been made... on Microsoft Moving Into Chip Design With Xbox Next · · Score: 1

    that reminds me of the naming convention apple used to use.

    when Apple released the II and SE, they were using the 68020 and 68000 respectively. Eventually the II was upgraded with a 68030 and called the IIx. When the SE was upgraded with an '030, it would have been the SEx if apple had kept with that naming scheme. Instead it was called the SE/30.
