Plaid? I've seen the outfits he wears. While the outfits aren't plaid, they do show he marches to a different fashion sense. At least it I hadn't seen him with a stuffy tie and blazer.
That and it has a fixed focal length. Camera phones generally don't have room for zoom. OK, zoom isn't always advantageous, but for the typical public, I think it is necessary, short of using a camera with modular lenses. People that use modular lenses wouldn't use this phone anyway.
I dunno. Nintendo does a lot of random bundling and limited colors, there was a GameCube with the first four Zelda games on a disc. Currently, it is a GC with Metroid Prime.
I am interested in the black iPod and I do like a lot of what U2 has made, now the only question is the asking price.
It's all about penis. Even Slashdot regulars go onWhether it is better to buy an Intel or AMD penis. Or an ATI or nVidia penis. Or what brand penis motherboard to buy. Or the brand hard drive penis. Or what OS penis they are using, or whether they built their penis from source code or not.
I really don't know why it is a huge problem. It does postpone the inevitable, but such a solution as NAT is even needed to help the transition to IPv6.
Not everything can be switched to IPv4, meaning replacing devices. Even the venerable WRT54G router can't fit IPv6-related code without sacrificing some other highly desirable features availalble in third party firmware, the flash size is too small.
Another thing is, last I recall, there are bluetooth adaptors that have external antenna connectors, and pigtails can be purchased.
A lot of people are violating FCC regs for wireless networking and the FCC has yet to crack down on people setting up illegal antennas, even though they are very aware of the phenomenon. Bluetooth falls under that same band, though usually lower power.
It could be put in the "Enthusiast" boards and left off or disabled on the lower end boards.
What you say makes sense, but most users don't need RAID-0 or -1, so why is it there? Because they can, and it is a selling point even to the enthusiast that's not sure if they'll set one up. First, something about available expansion capacity should they later decide they need it, second, something about bragging rights.
I've never had any VNC program crash Windows as in the OS. Ever. Sometimes the VNC window stops or goes away when the connection is broken. I've primarily used RealVNC though. BTW, VNC, at least RealVNC limits itself to 20Mbps. I think this is so it doesn't hog network resources.
Doesn't Terminal Services cost money? Does one use X to remotely administer Macs, or is there still a Mac-specific alternative like there was with the older MacOSs?
There aren't any commercially available multicore computers that run a Microsoft operating system. This is a bit forward-looking as dual core won't be available for maybe a year anyway.
but now it's clear that AMD will hold the lead throughout 2005.
That is getting a bit ahead of things. 2005 is just as long a year as any other, and both AMD and Intel may have surprises in their sleeves, and either one might make a critical mis-step.
2005 is the year that Intel is planning to release dual core Pentium Ms, dual core desktop & workstation chips and dual core Itaniums. I haven't looked at the AMD roadmap lately, but AMD has dual core plans for 2005 too, to my memory it is just dual core Opterons, nothing for desktops and laptops.
NTSC has 480 active image scan lines, 525 total scan lines, 45 scan lines don't have image signal, it is used on CRTs to sweep the electron beam to the top of the screen again. The typical active image area of an NTSC signal is 720x480, like an NTSC DVD.
Some people always see higher speed as being better no matter what, even if you have to use a harder-to-use OS like Linux or one that is the least secure, like Windows.
umm, yes. windows has this thing with trying NOT to use memory..how does that benefit anything? unused memory is just unused.
Uh... My copy of Windows is using about 530MB as cache. I routinely put the system to sleep, and even the apps that aren't open stay in the cache and many programs pop up almost immediately.
The pro-Linux and pro-Mac crowds could stand to learn how not to spread FUD-like statements. Making untrue claims about competing systems often serve only to undercut your own arguments.
Mac users have been complaining about the 256MB stock memory for a while now, OS X is supposedly a memory hog that performs noticably better with 512MB. I thought there should be ways to turn off unneeded services though.
That is still a play of semantics, such that it is still a fraud.
One can be a fraud by explicitly lying, and one can be a fraud by carefully wording things in a weasely way to deliberately give a false impression.
Even though one can say a copied item wasn't "stolen", as the original is still in the owner's hands, they still have a copy that they aren't entitled to have or use.
Not just resolution, the scan rate sucks, and TVs also have a tendency to hide detail. The resulting pixel density stinks too, I prefer not to see every individual phosphor cell.
I was running dual monitors back in 1999, but I think some Mac and UNIX people had been doing dual head for at least a half decade before that, maybe more than a decade.
I had bought two 17" monitors and a spare video card for less than what I paid for a 21" monitor. The monitors had since died and I bought a 21" second hand. I tried to set up two second hand 21" monitors but it simply didn't fit on my desk.
I'd like to get a 17" or maybe 19" LCD as a second monitor and attach it to one of the walls, but I don't want a 5:4 SXGA monitor. I don't want to go to a 15" XGA or a 21" UXGA monitor, for both size and price reasons, respectively.
I think that's awfully optimistic. While technology has advanced more rapidly than most people had believed, we still get colds, flu and of course, the "visionary" sky cars simply won't work unless they just fly themselves. I don't trust cell-phone-drivers, cell-phone-pilots will only make the situation worse.

I wonder what color the sky is in his world?

NEC is backing HD-DVD, they are a co-developer of that media format.
HD-DVD uses exactly the same frequency as Blu-Ray. So if a laser dies early for Blu-Ray, it will die early for HD-DVD.

Yeah, is that a girl for real? It doesn't have a horn on its forhead, on the sides or the center.
Seriously, it could be a girly-man. I've seen guys with similar haircuts and those eyebrow shadows are scary.

The thing is, Anand has been accused of an Intel bias, don't you remember the Xeon Nocona being pitted against a slower desktop AMD chip?
NTSC standard resolution is 648x486.

Supposedly XP powertoys has a virtual desktop feature. I thought ATI, nVidia and Matrox all included their own software that does the same thing too.

Steven Hawking's Universe was a six-parter and I thought the material fit better.
A BBS documentary need not be 50 minutes. Those that care enough to watch seven hours probably already know the material anyway.

I'll be here all night!
Lucky for you, you can still get Wi-Fi in the doghouse?
