Well based on typical processor theory. I processor can that can run at 1 watt and is fairly small, could be increased in size (mirroring its transistors). And brought up to a processor that runs almost 5 times as fast, as 5 watts of power. It kinda like overclocking, but not exactly, anyways, just give em time. The technology is there to create a super fast server processor, if they want to.
Well the 400MHZ version comes with linux, the 700MHZ version comes with windows. The 700MHZ supports 16 bit better, they 400 doesn't. 16 Bit support slows down a system. the 700MHZ runs windows perfectly and is exactly x86 compatible. Anything that is 100% x86 compatible can run x86 linux. But I'd be willing to bet that on linux the 700MHZ with 16 bit support runs exactly the same speed as the 400MHZ without 16 bit optimization as linux doesn't need this. (I assume both support 16 bit, just one is optimized for it, ruducing its speed/MHZ.)
They kinda avoided that question. but apparently under conventional benchmarks. Their 700MHZ = a Pentium 500MHZ (when running windows, probably, the benchmarks are different in linux, as their linux is tied in better)
Well they also are streaming it in windows media player format.. I believe there is a something for linux which will try and play it.. but you never know..

Linus owns the trademark on OpenSource.. not on Linux, you are required by law to defend a trademark or else loose it. I'm sure he would be happy letting someone who fit the definition of this word, use it, but that was the whole point of him trademarking it, in order to protect the word so it wouldn't be used improperly.

So What? Your only required to distribute source code when your distribute the program. So as long as a group of people agree not to redistribute it, they don't have to call themselves a corporation, they just have to have an agreement. Now weither such an agreement is legally binding is another story, and I think thats what he is getting at. But personally I think GPL its best for everyone if we let corperations work on it internally, as they do own the code they created, they should have the freedom to deside who they give it too, just not the freedom to decide who gets it after that once it has left their internal arena.
Libraries don't tend to carry back-issues of Playboy and Hustler. Is this censorship? Accually there was a court case concerning just that, and the court decided in favor of allowing libraries to censor, by the choice of not carrying, but the simple fact that it was impossible for them to carry every single book/mag in the world. So that they were allowed to censor in the means on not carrying. But this judgement hung on the contention that it was impossible for them to carry all the book of the world. This is in exactly the opposite where the internet is concerned. I can't find the exact court case to back my claim? Can anyone back me up on this?
Examples please? BTW who were you? That information would be nessesary for a person to correctly judge your comments as either simply flamitory, or a honest comment from someone who had been unnessesarly censored. (and as always please remember slashdot is privatly owned, and does have the legal right to do what it want.)
IANAL, but I get the sinking impression that you havn't even figured out what "IANAL" stands for. Of course I could be wrong, as I do misinterpret things, because well... IANAL.
Dvorak rules, I can type over 1000 words per minute on it, I just need to see if I can make a beuwulf cluster of them. Oh.. you mean the other Dvorak... sorry.:)
So would that accually be classified as a bathing suit, or just something that looks like a bathing suit. As I doupt one would go swimming in wearable tech.
Well someone pointed out earlier that the EFF was looking for a court case in which to challenge the DVD licensing. So it looks like there is some help, maybe.
Yes, but anything that fits in the inside groove isn't going to hold much. The CD buisness cards only hold around 40MB, I doupt the singles would hold much more.
So true, its amazing how hard it is to convense people of this, its almost like trying to convense people that the millinium starts in 2001. What we need is a huge advertising campain teaching people how to drive. It would save billions in road construction/gas consumtion (opps we'd have to fight against the same gas companies that are fighting against electic cars), and would pay for itself.
You can read about the Leonardo case at http://mitpress.mit.edu/e-journals/Leo nardo/ Whats worse is that the founder's widdow of the Leonardo journal (the people being sued) home got raided by the french police. Seriously.
thats why any mission as far as mars would be in a rotating craft, producing artifical gravity, duh. In case your curious, it looks like they are abandoning the big wheel idea of past, and just spining the current spacecraft about its z axis (that would be the axis from tail to nose) that way you would be pushed toward whatever is the closet wall. (But you do need to big wheel to stabilize the spin,, as such a small spin would be unstable and could easily change by a persons movements, if we can accually find water on the moon, its theorized we could use a large pump (powered by sun) to inflate a large wheel that could be compacted, but, thats a big if)
Well that depends upon how long it takes them to do the paperwork to split the stocks 3 or 4 ways. If they can get it done in a hurry, it will stabalize a bit and other people will be accually willing to buy it.
Ahh, I remembered the good ol days, when I could just sit down and read slashdot, without even having to think about grits. Of course we had to squell data down our analog phones at 300 baud, up hill both ways. BUT we enjoyed it! AND ANOTHER THING... ZZZZ.... where am I??

Anti Skip memory. With just a couple of MB it could hold the entire file. Atleast a few KB of anti skip would almost be required. A few MB prefered
Anyone know how much memory these things have? Cause it would be really nice if it came with a few MB for anti-skip.
Well according to this guy tbey reciently changed management and are on the up and up now. But personally I'd hire L0ft

Accually, for a good SCSI drive, that price is just about right. (Note: the price of SCSI is way inflated for what it should be, but I digress).
No, the point is that it is the coperations right to make money, but not in exchange for the freedoms of society.. duh.
