What you should be asking "how many VMs will it run?". That's where servers are now really. If it has some similar VM CPU extension like the current intel/AMDs do and it gets superior performance-per-watt there could be a big argument for using ARM in the server room...
But would you really need to even have any VMs if you can 10-20x as many servers in the same amount of space? Instead of running server on a VM you could just dedicate it to its own ARM computer.
Well, I would consider the macbook air to be in the netbook range. Instead of using a slow Atom processor, it just uses a slow *and* outdated ULV core2duo.
Alright... They may not be that slow, but they aren't as good as the core i19 in my desktop with 4 petabytes of RAM and a 1.21 gigawatt power supply!
I have a feeling though that it is slightly more complex than that - it's not "just' that the charges are swapped - otherwise there'd be no reason that "regular" matter seems to have prevailed over antimatter.
How do you know that matter prevailed over antimatter over the *entire* universe? For all we know there could be "anti galaxies" out there that are in far higher numbers than regular galaxies, vice versa, or perhaps there is an exact equal amount of both its just that they haven't met yet.
I have a very hard time reading that font on my monitor, but my brother and parents have no problem what so ever reading it on the same monitor. I think it may have something to do with myself being red-green colour blind and that the design of the font depends on Red and Green (and blue..)
It does seem sad... Here I thought I was rather behind on things in the computer world for my age, but I guess I'm really not.
Also, I'm not sure if knowing what about IRC is a good thing for me as I tend to spend 5-6 hours on it a day, but its better than facebook I suppose...
I'm 17 years old and I even know what IRC is, SVN, Git, and CVS... I've used bug trackers before, filed bug reports and I've compiled (and even cross-compiled...) projects from source... oh and I read slashdot.
Well, you really aren't missing much... They aren't very exciting and tend to filled all sorts of liars. They keep trying to change them to be better, and more exciting but they aren't really making any progress...
I feel that finding ways to allow the eInk to display motion (without leaving a ghosted image behind)would a more important next step. I would rather have an eReader be able to do that than display color, as you wouldn't have to see it flash the screen every time you need to "turn" a page. After that color would be the next most important thing to me, even still I don't see myself ever needing color on an eReader. But, I wouldn't want to be the one blocking the advance of technology as I'm sure I would eventually see a use for, just like all sorts of people have found a use of having 641K...
Maybe a color eInk screen will be found on all of our little smart phones someday, with an optional back light.

Do I get a prize for that?
What's the purpose of staying anonymous with donating? Could you actually face legal troubles by doing so online?
Well isn't that a given since since it is divided by 2?
By being on the top500 list, you will be on the top500 list.

You don't even need a recent linux install to support IPv6. IPv6 has been supported in linux for many years now...
All your base are belong to us.
Perhaps there was just a bad translation somewhere along the line...
or perhaps a 4 billion year old wake and bake...
I think what you meant to say was "Quiet down ye whippersnappers!"
exactly! and I don't know about you but I usually don't look at the cover of the book on my eReader very much..
I thought that was suppose to Linux Torvalds?
Then I can focus on even more important things like mastering the Ballmer Peak!

almost forgot... I even use Debian on my main computer for everything except a few games that run in Wine. For those games I boot into windows..

Steve Jobs now likes flash, or finally realized that most of the internet does indeed use flash, and has succumbed to the reality of reality.
Think what you mean is "Now that Steve Jobs has allowed a way for flash to be played in safari, the internet now uses flash"
Can you go back in time now with the flux capacitor app?
Exactly! And the next thing you know the RIAA will be cracking down on people pirating cars over torrents and printing them at home.
I think that it should almost be more standardised, like it is, so that when you go to borrow someone else's phone that has that its exactly the same.
Hey! You forget about all of those crazy cats running Gentoo... and they mat... wait. Good point.
