Without looking at the spec, I'd guess that you have a case of AMD exploiting the peculiarities of their architecture and trying to push "a new standard".
Probably payback for BTX, which Intel designed requiring memory to be too far away from CPU for AMD's (on board IOMMU) requirements.
You guys should try MythTV. If it can't fit in the 1000 byte text file, you need to read the source to figure out which key to press. Try explaining that to your wind0ws using buddies.
For huge concerts, it often takes 30 minutes from when the final note of the encore is done to when you can actually get to the exit of the arena, if not longer.
If I can burn a CD in 3 minutes, then you've got plenty of time for duplication. The real issue is that your live concert will have to be equivalent to the house mix (which might not sound great on your home stereo).
I think the real issue would be a lack of market. If a pop act like Britney plays the same set every night, with a ton of pre-recorded tracks and effects, do fans care that they are getting "their" concert?
Improvisational bands and jam bands, by definition having a different show every night, would probably be more successful. See livephish.com for an example.
No cheap way to back up an IDE drive? rsync is free! I gave up on buying a DLT drive when I realized that I could buy a low-end system to rsync (-e ssh) into my box for less, with the same amount of storage.
I don't (yet) have a ide caddy to take my backups off-site, but I do have all of my data on at least 2 different hard drives (some on 4!!). For a heck of a lot less than buying a DLT drive.
I have been using m$ money for over 4 years now. It appears that I am going to be switching to Quicken...
I find it insulting that I must sign into microsoft's passport in order to use a program which should not share information outside of my own personal computer!!
Better yet are the folks who complain about me "hacking" their machine on 6346 - who when I explain how Gnutella works, they start denying that they have used BearShare or Napster and that all of their MP3s are legal... the RIAA would be proud.
I have used Qwest DSL for almost a year now, and highly recommend it.
The key here is to purchase their always-on product (they have an oversubscribed port product which requires you to 'log in' to the service, get timed out, etc.)
I have the 640k service and have dedicated static LAN IP address. Make sure that your service comes with the Cisco 675 router and isn't the internal card (which requires windoze drivers).
But as long as you have the Cisco LAN version, you've got an ethernet gateway, which does DHCP. As long as your service has static IPs and is always-on, you'll be set. I don't know but would fear that having 'connect on demand' service will require windows software.
I'd say that Laumer probably influenced the naming of lots of robot tanks. But the author claims that it was his girlfriend at the time (who spoke Hindi).
This Paper explains Stuart Cheshire's latency lessons from Bolo.
I think the key difference between Cheshire's bolo and the apple ][ game is that Cheshire wrote it around the network code from the start (on an Acorn BBC Micro computer, wow!)
The lore around the mac version of bolo is that
it was designed as a test of communication
protocols via appletalk. Aparrently bolo means
'communication' in Hindi or some other language.
Thus, a network-playable game that works well
on a 9.6 dialup connection!

BOLO was a game for the MAC which I played at least 8 years ago. Because the mac had more network-ability than your similarly equipped intel-class PC, this game spread across (mac-equipped) campus labs like wildfire.
Which is proof, that you don't need 3-d graphics (in fact, the game is designed to work well in BLACK AND WHITE) to have great gameplay.
Now it's available for windows and linux. Don't miss it.

Well, I'm not going to watch it all - my tivo will. First 10 episodes, at least get me half caught up.

Plus, Tell Me has a good phone number.
(1-800-555-TELL)
Also, I don't think you need to register to get stock quotes.
...or they lobby for government restrictions on ISPs using proxy servers (like the recent Australia posting)

The article is lacking in detail, but it sounds like they are doing VDSL or some splitting.
Next Level Communications was Qwest's vendor.
