Well, actually i saw this system working already for silent cooling of gfx-cards in standart boxes. So, it's nothing really new, its thermodynamics... and therefore well known for a couple o' years... don't ask me how long, I usually slept trough my thermodynamics lessons;)
But anyways, they seem to be the first ones to use this in a laptop.
Did anyone notice that there is a newer book available on amazon.com than the book mentioned it the text above? The publisher is now Addison Wesley Professional and it is also a little bit cheaper. It has the same amount of pages and seems to be the same edition.
It's not even necessary to recall all the PDAs and repack them. Simply send out Stickers that say 12bit Display and tell the sellers to put one on every box. Plus maybe a handout that informs of the "typo" in the handbook.
Dooh, well i saw it... it is projected onto polymere film... its a still. So no animations until you replace the film against an instant projection panel... lets develop one...:P
When you look at the picture at the end of the article, you can see that one part of the laser is directed through a LCD screen, afa I understand it, if you change the pic on the LCD you change the hologram, changing pictures gives you animations if you can change 'em fast enough. Also, according to the graphic, the projection is in the room in front of the projection panel, not behind, like in the common art-photo-holos.
I bet the aliens DNS is the same as ours... If aliens have DNS anyway... and of course aliens know cancer... or if the aliens designed our DNS to create mankind, they built in cancer... it's not a bug, it's a feature!
I never really bothered what happens to my spare cpu cycles... so why not waste them on SETI it's fun, isn't it? But now I saw that link in an earlier post and I think I will use my cpu for something meaningful now... IMHO brute forcing RC5 is.., well, It was always clear it could be done... maybe thats the difference to Seti and it produces no useful results thats the difference to the cure cancer project...anyway, thanks to the guy who posted that link.
Actually i think the CM would have to be higher than geosync so that you have some force on the cable (CM trying to leave this orbit) plus to carry the 20 tons of payload...
(yes, i didn't read the.pdf as well - tell me if i'm wrong)
A more appropriate definition for "landing" would be "controlled crash." which is exactly what you do when you "land" an airplane... you stall it 3 feet over ground.
(When the air flow around your wing rips off your plane falls like a stone... but you are only 3 feet high so it is very likely that you land (!) on the gear)
The QinetiQ 1 balloon will be the biggest manned balloon in history several times over. Made from polyethylene, it will have a volume of more than 40 million cubic feet at 132,000 feet - about 400 times the size of a typical hot air balloon. At launch, the top of the QinetiQ 1 balloon will be seven times higher than Nelson's Column and as high as the Empire State Building. At altitude, its volume will also be more than the Empire State Building, yet will weigh less than three tons, compared to the 365,000 tons of the Empire State Building.
..and if you look at recent baloon projects, the baloon hull was always something like silverish colored. That should make it quite visible, according to your calculations;-)
Actually you should learn logic thinking in school, adapting concepts... not looking up standard solutions. Thats why I agree with banning electronic devices, they distract you from thinking on your own, you rather check if your little black box knows an answer.

I'd also like to own a Swedish phone?
dooh... who knows...
And OS 101 would be OS C++ then?
Yes, someone already posted a link to that advert.
Here is the link again.
I really wanted to tell you about my ol' amigas and that laser2000 i still have in my closet, but this post is still under construction

Actually, the most intresting thing in the whole article is the picture at the end... it shows how the hologram is generated
I agree if you use a blank screensaver, if you don't you may save your screen but not your CPU cycles...

YES! Lets pollute this planet some more and then just go to the next one... we'll sure find some asteroid to blame...! ;)

(yes, i didn't read the
and you could have the longest free fall in skydiving history ever ;)
...but i always got this message after leaving a pub:
*** goonies left the pub. (quit: connection reset by beer)

maybe they'll equipt at Rivendell... so they all get elvish gear... or later on together w/ the cloaks
Sad thing I used my last mod point yesterday, I'd give you "+1 Funny" for that post... ;)
Again, I move we refer to it as the "Special K" detector from now on. :)
We'd better refer to it as "Sushi K"
Considering the height and the thin air,
your wings would be quite useless...

Also, how shall I save my HTML docs for the web if this nice OS saves everything into a database?
Remember? No more files or folders the article said.
Just my 2 cents.
