But you have a dual P4 Xeon. There's a difference between the P4 Xeon and the normal P4 (mainly the Xeon costs more, has more cache, and is SMP capable).
Sounds interesting.
Joint Linux/Windows cluster are especially nice because then, companies (that haven't switched to Linux) can use all of their desktop workstations in a cluster and thus increase their available CPU-power without having to shell out cash for new machines.
www.drexel.edu.us, because they are not an international educational institution.
That is something a lot of people are missing, the.us. Domains without the country extensions were AFAIK only to be used by large international companies, institutions, etc...
So, IMO, Sun or Microsoft deserve the.com, but the mom-and-pop store down the street is supposed to get the.co.us.
Another question on domain names:
What does the.ac stand for in british educational domains (they use.ac instead of.edu) ?
No, because the ti85 isn't 32bit and how much RAM/ROM does it have again?
I don't think you can put NetBSD on there, and somehow, I can't imagine bash on a calculator.
IMHO, one reason why Progeny halted NOW is because NOW is pretty revolutionary (a.k.a. a real inovation), and the market isn't used to this.
The market is used to Microsoft style inovations, meaning repackaging old ideas and selling that at inflated prices.
Lets hope that the market will change in the next few years, so that something like this will become feasable.
Until then, we could start an open source project with the same goal.
With Progeny halting NOW and the failure of Corel Linux, has any commercial product based on Debian ever been succesfull ?
->Of course I'm a little biased in that I work for the Jet Propulsion Lab and I like to see any space exploration, but this in particular is important to me.
Well, I don't work for JPL, and I still want to see the study of Venus, or any other body in space, continue.
I feel that space has been neglected to much.
Terraforming Venus should be plausible, but where should we go with all the CO2 ?
Yhea, CDE is crap, but, honestly, everything that the Open Group put out was crap, or do you like Motif ?
I think that's do because the big players fear suggestion stuff that' sactually good, because then the other partners would also get it. (The mind property crap).
AFAIK, you cannot use the NVidia Linux drivers with it, because they have their dinky little kernel module, which you have to reinstall everytime I compile a new kernel. At least NVidia cards can be used in 2D with the XFree driver now.
But what good is a driver for X if Solaris doesn't support most LAN-cards and IDE/SCSI-adapters.
This just shows that Solaris X86 is for servers only, where you check out the HCL before you buy/build the box.
Just what I've been thinking. It should have at least been mentioned in the/. article.
Somehow I think that due to the fact of Ext3 beeing completely community build and not having a company representing it, it was kept out of the round-up, even though, IMHO, Ext3 is more mature than JFS abd XFS. Only ReiserFS beats it.
But still, it's going to be interesting as the fs's develop and make Linux even better for enterprise level computing.
But why would you want to click on setup.exe ?
Just download the RPM and type "rpm -i koffice[whatever].rpm" or, even better, under Debian, I just type "apt-get install koffice".
Even easier than setup.exe.
If you look at the caption, it says in parentethes or 5,800 years ago in absolute time, so the star collapsed 5,800 years ago, and now, the shockwaves have beem travelling for 800 years.
Reading the caption under pictures sure helps you understand them.:-)
->Drop the scramjet vehicle from a supersonic carrier vehicle.
Somehow, I think this would be a little complicated for mass use. Imagine the chaos if a couple get dropped at the same time. ATC will be really happy:-). But we could something similar in SSTO (single stage to orbit) vehicles that get carried up to maybe 50.000 feet and then get dropped, because most of the energy used to reach orbit is needed to leave the ground (I think, IANARS(rocket scientist)).
->Build a giant rail gun, like in Gundam Wing.
I think that this would be cool, but somehow, I think that this would never get approval.
->Attach JATO or RATO pods to the scramjet, and jetison them once hypersoninc speeds are reached
Sounds plausible, but it's a waste of resources and material.
->Use conventional means to reach a high altitude, and acheive hypersonic ingition using a balistic dive.
This could really be done, the airline just has to be sure to fasten everything down for the dive.
->Use an on-board oxidizer to fuel the scramjet like a rocket until atmosphearic ignition is possible.
Pretty good idea. Then, the planes could also be refitted to reach space.
->Build the scramjet to work first as a jet. Once at maximum jet speed, lock the jet blades and operate as a ramjet. Once at maximum ramjet speeds, jetison the jet rotors and combustion chamber to expose a scramjet surface.
This, I love:-). It's cool and has lots of fancy technology integrated. The only thing is the jetisoning. I still think it's a waste of material. It should be possible to somehow fold the jet rotors and seperate the combustion jamber from the jet.
Lets hope that they will pursue this further and make it viable for manned flight.
It sounds interesting, because if we coat stuff with this, everybody will see the level of pollution and won't be dependant on (not always correct) readings from a few sensors, but I think that it would suck if your car keeps on changing color when you drive from city to country, etc...

The only thing is that the Taliban have banned TV, so there can be no TV guide.
Sounds interesting.

BTW, we need more top-level domains.
No, because the ti85 isn't 32bit and how much RAM/ROM does it have again?

Oh yhea, then, we would not only have to suffer through the smell while in the bathroom, we could transmit the smell everywhere in case we miss it. :-)
;-)
Really Great.
Damn, it's a sculpture.

I thought it's a real PDA.
Well, Java isn't a town, it's an island in Indonesia.

Well, what should we say :
:-)
"miced by mice"
or
"crewed by mice"
Learn your mascots. :-)
It's, as has already been pointed out, a chameleon.
Actually, I never really hated Intel. I just think that their CPU's are too expensive and I don't like what they did to the Alpha.
:-)
Oh, and I run AMD.
Oh great, then they'll start advertising the Athlon 2411 (Bogomips for an Athlon 1200) and so on. :-)
->...and of course, like all of their demos, it installs and plays flawlessly.
Not only their Demos, all their products are of excellent quality.
Well, AFAIK this help if there are a lot of fish and other reef dwellers in the water, but I didn't know that there were reef dwellers in New York.

Actually no. Todays Wine can run Windows applications without needing Windows.
->Yeah, but let's face it, Quicktime is for the most part dead.
:-)
Just like Apple, right ? Apple has,for the last few years, supposed to be dead, but Apple doesn't know this
Apple keeps on going on and on.
And I agree with you that Microsoft was the main factor in keeping Quicktime of Linux.
