Damn you beat me by 2 minutes:) I wanted to paste the original HTML but Slashdot complained because "Your comment has too few characters per linetoo short lines" (?). So I pasted the content without the formatting just like you did. Heh, still funny.
Since the site is slowing down, here's the list (and the page):
Here are the names and categories for the winners of the 17th IOCCC. The source code has not been released yet. The winners have been notified by EMail. They will be given a chance to review the write-up of their entry. Once this process is complete the source code will be made available on the winning entries web page. We anticipate that this will be in mid-October.
The winners are,

An update every 6 months is welcome for sure ! I hope they will sync their release path with the Linux drivers, THAT would be awesome (ie when the Linux driver is avaiable, the FreeBSD one will be (or within days...)).
Just installed it on my iMac DV+ 450 and saw some changes so far. First, Darwin was upgraded to version 7.5.0. Then, if you go to the system preferences, a new row (Other) is added with an icon labelled "Hardware". For me, it shows infos about the CPU and let me choose if I want to desactivate the L2 cache (combobox with "512KB" or "None"). Safari was upgraded too, now running as 1.2.3 (v125.9). That's about it for now...
Mabye I don't see it, but isn't water cooling some form of heat transfer too ? Just like fans are sucking hot air out (can we say heat transfer too?) ?
I think you should give AdAware a quick run. You would be amazed of the results. Even on a freshly installed computer, after browsing the net for 5 minutes AdAware catches stuff (personal experience).

No, because here it's called Slashdot. It means it's the best thing happening for most of the basement crowd out there.

Well that must be it because I installed XCode 1.5 like 2 days ago and didn't went to system preferences since then :D

Also, where's the official press release ?
I hope their speciality isn't hot spam.
Remove all posts containing the word "Soviet" or "Russia" (including this very one) and the comment thread shrinks to 5 posts! Amazing...
Your mom always said that "in life, you have to use your head".
Can you say "tinfoil hat" ?
Be careful buddy, if your CD's aluminium is getting rotten, your tin foil hat may too !
All I have to do is pay 400$ and then I just have to crack the password, right ?
Of course, someone *will* say the obligatory "imagine a beowulf..." comment in this thread.
Mod parent up please, this is an important issue to me...
It's kinda a good thing. It proves that some people actually *reads* the articles before posting !

Interesting, only 413 results...
Old guys don't see very well anymore.
