Since you're not using you money we want you use it for you on things you couldnt immagine like crackwhores and such. Your arguement is like some kind of slave labor agreement "ok produce code we'll use it but never give you credit you nor anyone else will never know that xyz company has built upon your code." So next time someone takes your money and does something with it you "didn't" will you think "gee i'm glad they had the resources to take my money and invest in crackwhores for me" free code should stay free not free as in re-commented, patented and regurgitated. If at any point the code becomes unavalible I'd consider that not free if you're going to use it it should be avalible for distribution.
A groupware calendar patient/doctor shared so the patient can document symptoms and the doctor can interactivly track and maintain the patient. The opportunity to create a small community on the web revolving around this medical practice could be enhanced by the web but dont expect it to dazzle the patients into wellness, the idea here should be tools to make your job easier and better not "shiny things that would mezmorize a two year old" unless you're treating two year olds who are in need of shiny things that is.
Yes we all know the terror of a +2 Software Patent of intimidation!

My motto is that OS is irrelevant; it's apps apps apps that count.
Macromedia is producing it's core suite of apps for OSX and microsoft is producing office10 for OSX those are two fiarly compelling business apps. Good enough?
Why do people hate Internet Explorer have you used it lately?! It's awesome, it's quick to load, less of a resource hog than some other browsers and dosent choke on pages with complex tables ie that giant jerky re-render when you scroll down. It's just plain better than anything out currently so stop your Mozilla Netscape Nazi-ing and just giving that microsoft won the battle of the browsers.
Apple has always tried to embody quality and their choice to use IE is a good one would you rather see netscape 6? Dont even get me started on Netscape 6, AOL owns netscape? They STILL use IE in AOL not that I use or endorse either but it just goes to show you that netscape hasnt been good since 3.x and the continued development of netscape is like some houseguest that wont go home, it was nice when it showed up but now it's just anoying.
Macromedia plans on supporting OSX to a webdeveloper this is the ultimate platform develope and test code all at the same time IE is being ported as well as MS Office. It's linux except with _usefull_ apps.
Perhaps a contract programming job where you can telecommute? While it's maybe not exactly what you're looking for it could definitly be a learning experience.
Arent we doing this essentially with out of order instructions to increase speed of operations from ram? So we'd be sending out of order instructions which can be processed in parallel. Sounds like ten pounds of crap in a five pound bag to me but hey it's like asking why people climb mountains because they're there.
It's good to have a "goal" in the form of a date of expected release as with Linux theres no one breathing down your neck everyday making sure you stick to the task at hand or release in a forced manor. Of course we as the community take it for granted when things dont show up for the projected "goal" we've got a 2.2 kernel and it works quite well. Lets not trivialize the work being done because it misses a date or two because when it comes out you can be confident in it's quality.
Fail-over clustering. Being redundant is good, good, good. If we think a few sticks of ram are going to solve inhierent file system problems we either dont understand the problem or we dont understand the technology. I see it's benifits but for some reason it feels like it should be part of the hardware architecture rather than a simple pci card with yet another buggy driver supporting it and making it all work.
I basically installed and then screwed around installing whatever I could, not caring if things were broken in the process. I spent about a week just breaking things and being clumsy knowing that after that week I'd re-install and start from scratch again. I did this probably 4 times until I felt comfortable enough to dig in and not worry about my lack of knowledge. Once you get past the first month or so it's not so bad.
Then I went through every distro I could get my hands on while simultaniously hoarding oreilly books, I setteled on Debian and havent looked back ever since of course I still keep windows around but generally only for games and some neato macromedia software.
I don't care what they do, as long as it makes linux better. Let's not be picky here it's a major company if they spend one red cent on improving the linux experience I'm happy.
I've got news for you. There's nothing special about T-Buffer. Everything that can be done with T-Buffer can be done with standard OpenGL calls with no significant performance losses. It's just marketing.
Ok so that's why no one else but 3dfx brought out anything that even resembles t-buffer results and why nvidia has major problems with fsaa...marketing hype... uh huh... I'm sure you'll find the "vast majority" is using ati cards as most oem setups carry them they're the microsoft of video cards.
Part of the reason "pro" gamers have horrible display quality is to attain super high (120 - 200) fps which actually can modify some of the physics in quake 3 allowing you to make certain jumps, which at times can be especially usefull.
I rather enjoy BeOS's desktop environment very crisp, clean and simple, why must we dig deep for the eye candy when half the time it breaks when running simple normal operations. Just make it fast and intuitive...
Interesting that now redhat and slackware fall in line with their own conjurings of APT. Debian's been doing it all along and only now do other distro's understand why people love debian. You spend more time using the applications and less time screwing with setups and configuration.

I dont know whats so special about this I've already got X on my box.
And thus Microsoft will be relegated to what it's software has always done best... allow for gaming. (and there was much rejoicing)
It's happy _GNU_ year.

The easiest way to get drivers for the latest greatest piece of hardware is just buying 2 of it and sending one to your favorite hacker.
