The funny thing about Maroon 5 which was reasonably different from what was heard on the radio last year is that their album which had all those songs on the charts was released in December of 2002.
A friend of mine picked up an album in a record store several years ago that two years later made the charts. That was Tatu.
The music industry more than anything holds bands down.
In my database class our professor was giving a brief overview of databases going through the pros and cons of each and when talking about Access he used the term "scalable" as well as the very important qualifier "not." Microsoft themselves use the term correctly when describing what another of their products can do in comparison to Access.
Assuming my professor is correct and "optimize" means "adds" the full list of buzzwords MS uses in describing what Access doesn't have is: "performance, scalability, security, reliability, recoverability, and availability"
You must have missed the several months of complaining back when I think Windows XP was first being released and Microsoft announced that they would include their own implementation of the Java runtime with Windows.
FUD is one ways of doing the mean things they do, the other way is called "embrace and extend." They embraced the Java API (or whatever it is that's standardized and documented about Java) and extended it with some goodies that only worked with their runtime. As with rendering webpages, the Microsoft way of doing it follows the general idea behind the standards, but it's still going to be a little off from what you'd expect by purely following the standards. The tweaking required to get things to run perfectly on IE can often break it for other platforms.

How about sickle-cell anemia? It has its problems but it also makes you immune to Tse-Tse flies.
Our sense of "art" or creativity is supposed to be the result of some mutation a long time ago. It lets us solve some truly incredible problems (esp. when compared to animals) but also opens us up to all sorts of bizarre mental disorders. Defect?

It still seems like overkill. The cross-sectional area increases exponentially with diameter and yet the wire is *much* larger than the speaker wires leading out of the amp. I know amps get pretty hot when they're running but the need for so power implies a *lot* of energy turning into heat. I've seen in-car coffee makers with wires just like you'd see in your home, not 1/4" monsters.
By the way, you can't use audio cable for SPDIF. SPDIF requires coaxial video cable (75 ohm impedance). It will not work well with anything else.
See, you had me on the voltages thing because I really didn't know. Stuff in class has always been in terms of 0, +5, and -5 and every power lead I've ever seen used in a computer was 5 or 12 volts so I just assumed most data connections were like that.
But cheap wire works just fine for any digital audio connection I've ever made, and I don't think I have any wires with an impedance that high. To quote from here: There is some debate whether using true 75 Ohm RCA connectors is of any use when the impedance of typical RCA panel jacks are not anywhere near 75 Ohms.
The way I figure it, a digital audio signal could only be 2 or 3MHz (128kHz on 2-7 channels for SACD, which is likely inaccurate but over compensating) and if this cable can transmit at "beyond 200MHz" and be twice as efficient as a $2 cable then I should be just fine.
There is a this guide to making 75 Ohms of impedance cables but I can't take it seriously since it refers to things like breaking in the dialectric. Is this the kind of person that believes in 75 Ohm impedance requirements?
I decided to look up one of the cables feature in your last link and eventually found that I would have to pay $36.22 for 0.5 meter of Cobalt Cable's digital audio coax cable...

We pay them. Let google keep of their data for them.

I think the joke was missed, no offense meant.
Fuck you. Stupoid.
Last I checked phone lines could handle well over 100kbps. FCC rules limit it to 54k.
If I recall correctly, this was premiered in The Jackal. I can't recall any Bond film with this.
Do we really know that it's the drivers causing the slowdown? It could very likely be X itself.

Ah hahahahahahahahaaaaaaa
We provide ultra high bandwidth connectors to provide excellent signal isolation and signal transfer for any application.
Oh my god! Kill me now... hahahaahaaa
This cable provides brilliant clarity and top-notch performance for stereo or multi-channel (Dolby Digital*, DTS, etc.) digital audio.
Kill me! Make it stop!!! Hahaha....
