Nullsoft was an awesome company. I use the word "WAS" because it "WAS" a company known for innovation. That is, until AOL bought them out. More significantly, until TIME WARNER / AOL bought them out.
Do you all remember GNUTELLA? Released online for 2 days before TIME WARNER shut them down (through AOL). I think that was a firm message to the NULLSOFT team that their heyday as innovators was over.
"WORK ON WINAMP" was the message they got, and we havent seen anything ground breaking from them since.
Im glad the front-line team has left the company. It means some very smart guys/girls are going to be out there, away from the umbrella of a major music label; hopefully free to "create" again.
http://www.diamondsystems.com/ Heres our PC/104 supplier. We also use a GPIB card from National instruments connected to an Agilent Data logger. Add a Modem Card, Video Card, and two DMM32 Data Aquisition cards. Plus the DMM16 thats already on-board.
The new Athena Processors have video on-board, and faster CPU's.
I believe Intel sued over teh Mach86 processor and they had to switch.
I work with Diamond Systems PC/104 computers everyday. These systems are robust and the specifications for operating environments are crucial to applications such as these. Their ability to operate in extreme conditions, temperature, vibration, make them fit for such roles.
We've used PC/104 computers (running QNX 4.25) for everythign from Remote power stations, Fuel cells, even UAV's.
redflagdeals.ca is a great site for canadians looking to know what the best deals out there are. Good source for coupons, and offers from various retailers.
Was reading this like going to theme park at the age of 10 and riding the tea-cups realising after about a minute that your way past the age you should be riding the tea cups?
But the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn MI has some really cool stuff like Thomas Edisons laboratory and his last breath. Henry Ford was quite Morbid, he has JFK's limo, and Lincolns chair as well.
that is the stupidest thing I have ever heard... First of all, there are multiple ways to extract hydrogen from exisintg pollutants like methane from manure, or volatile organic compounds. Hydrogen is practically a renewable resource.
Also what you dont know is that in most implementations the H20 waste from Fuel Cells can be used to power turbines, or in a reforming process outside of the fuel cell cycle. Water waste doesnt mean liquid, fuel cells operate at high temperatures, in the case of SOFC's that operate at (+)800 degrees c there are many uses for the waste water by-product.
hahaha.. I'm from Toronto, living in Kingston, everyone i know from Smellville hates it. Actually, if I remember correctly Kingston lost the bid for this tech center.
Id be interested to know what OD they are using. I work with PC/104 stack for embedded use, and we run QNX. Since they use a "high level" language I wonder what the base platform is? Is Timber just a wrapper?
If I started a company, with a couple proffessor's that "certified" peopl ehad complete the courseware provided by MIT. Would that not hold standing with organizations as a degree. A person could complete the courses on their own time, and pay us to "mark" their work. If myself, and my collegues held the proper credentials, and were therefore a "trused" authority in the matter, I believe such credentials would have to hold some standing. Universities are very impersonal in most cases anyway. Why dont we just get rid of the "institution" as well.
Update: 07/16 18:33 GMT by T: Sorry, that's centimeters, not inches, which is of course even better;)
I once made that same mistake at a bar once, had 4 girls hanging all over me for four hours before I realised I had said 12 inches and not 12 centimetres.
They didnt believe me when I said its not the size of the wave.. you get the rest..
The Global Underground Series is the best collection of electronic music mixed by the worlds best DJ's.
There are also many internet radio stations that play electronic music. Proton Radio is one of the best places to listen to progressive house 24/7.
If you want to know the best place to listen to electronic music, its at a club. Go find a club near you, bring some friends, and enjoy. Good people good fun.
The worst part about electronicv music (techno, trance, breaks, progressive) is that its almost all produced on Vinyl so DJ's can spin the records during their sets. And sometimes even the best records are never fully distributed, they stay 'Promo' which means nepetism is the only way to get a copy.
Download DJ sets off the internet. The Essential Mix sets produced by Radio One (UK)(and world class DJ's) are the most freely available. As well as John Digweed's Kiss 100 radio show. They always provide tracklistings to their sets, so you can pick up the tunes you like later.
I specifically reccomend you find any Paul Oakenfold sets from 1999 - 2000. Everyone usually starts off there.

That the hardware is being sold at a loss for the most part. Microsoft rely's on the consumer to purchase games to offset the retail of the machines. I cant be sure that MS is going to be too happy about this application of the X-Box without any cash coming to them. Sure they will sell more machines, but will they sell more software, possibly? Hey its not like they could stop it even if they wanted too. Its out there in public domain now.. people will use it with or without the MPAA's or Microsofts permission..

HAVING SEX....
That, my guess, would be problem #1 with these things.
Serious, how many people would be pulling-off in these things with their Archos Divx Players.

A PC/104 is just a form factor. And provides standards for things such as environmental operating parameters.
CPU boards usually have an intel clone processor MACH86 or VIA Athena.
So they can run any OS your desktop can.

replace teacups with "on-track" car circuits and youll get what I mean.

I'll wait till the movie comes out.
I hear they got John Woo.
Doesnt RedHat 9 have this functionality already. Im not running it myself, but Im sure my bosss just touted this feature?
they want to reboot my computer without informing me?
