The whole losing the right to vote thing is unconstitutional but who really wants to fight for a criminals rights. Don't believe me?
Read the 13th amendment, especially this line: Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States.
Then read the 15th Amendment:
The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.
That is impossible to accomplish, well at least with bullets. I know when I go to the range I use reloads. It would just be way to easy to get around ammunition regulation. Unless you want to ban the sale of gunpowder which I think would have quite a few people up in arms (figuratively and possibly literally).
Also being able to make my own ammunition comes in handy on those nights I want to hunt werewolves.
Just a question. Have you ever filed for a trademark, If there are problems or oppositions it can easily take over a year, Mine was started in September 2003 and we are still not registered.
Oh and Tiger Direct is not really a "third-rate mail order house" They have been around for quite awhile. I think you statement catagorizes you as an Apple fanboy.
No until they have a registration number they do not actually have a registered trade mark, Look closely as it has "An opposition is now pending at the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board".
According to a search on USPTO.gov using Tiger Direct on the owner name as my search parameters I don't see them having a trade mark on Tiger.
They have 11 entries almost al with the word Tiger in them but not the word Tiger alone. In fact all of their trademarks with tiger in them are one word entries. XCONNECT TIGERPC.COM TIGERTV.COM TIGE RSYSTEMS TIGERDIRECT TIGERDIRECT TIGERDIRECT.CO M there are all the live trademarks.
Ok after checking that out I have to admit your right. I wonder how much latency that introduces or if their is a more efficient way of creating this connection. Agreed it does change how I thought SLI actually worked.
No it is actually another Chipset that hangs off the nVidia 2200. It does not hook up to the 2nd processor as far as I know and even if it does, i believe the HT bus would help alieviate that problem. Not only that but it is the only board I have seen that provides 2 FULL x16 slot, so you saying it is not a true x16 slot makes me wonder if you even checked out the board.
"Tyan's Thunder K8WE utilizes a combination of three individual chips onboard to allow for so much onboard connectivity, the nVidia nForce4 Pro 2200 primary chip, the nForce4 Pro 2050 secondary chip, and the AMD 8131 PCI-X controller hub. The nForce4 Professional 2200 is the "primary" chip of the nForce4 chipset, as this chip supports 16 lanes of PCI Express connectivity, Gigabit LAN, and four SATA-II/300 ports, along with all the extras which go along with the nForce4 design (USB, PCI, IDE, etc). Alone, the nForce4 Pro 2200 is similar in design to the nVidia's own nForce4 Ultra for the AMD Athlon64 platform.
The nForce4 Pro 2200 can be paired with an additional chip to supplement its abilities, which is the nForce4 Pro 2050. The nForce4 Pro 2050 is very similar in design to the 2200, but is neutered to help keep costs down. The nForce4 Pro 2050 can supply an additional 16 lanes of PCI Express bandwidth, an additional four SATA-II/300 ports, and an additional Gigabit Ethernet port. The 2050 however, cannot support USB 2.0, PCI, or IDE devices. When the 2050 chip is added to a motherboard, you basically double your PCI Express bandwidth, SATA RAID port capabilities, and GigE port capabilities compared to a single chip nForce4 Pro 2200 setup. "
Hence anchoring the ship 3 miles of the California coast. It provides the best of both worlds, cheap outsourcing prices with the benefits of not having the people doing the work 1/2 way around the world.
Since the company is incorporated in California, I am sure they will be paying taxes in the US. It has more to do with skirting immigration laws and visas then evading taxes. That, and OSHA requirements and wage laws.
Last night I wrote them a quick email to show my feelings, this morning I got a reply:
Thanks you for your recent inquiry to Grants.gov concerning the Pure Edge viewer.
Grants.gov has been working with Pure Edge to offer a viewer that is compatible with as many operating systems as possible. We feel that we are not too far from achieving that goal, and when we do, be sure that information will be posted on our website. In the meantime, we apologize if the viewer options we offer for your operating system are not acceptable. Our goal is to ensure the widest possible acceptance of Grants.gov and certainly not to exclude anyone from the electronic grants submission process. To that end, as a first step, we ensured that the Pure Edge viewer will work with a Windows emulator program, as described on our website.
Grants.gov employs the PureEdge Viewer 6.0 for viewing and completing application forms. The PureEdge viewer's 508 compliance is described at http://www.pureedge.com/products/products/PureEdge AccessibilityGuide.pdf. Grants.gov sponsored testing of the PureEdge viewer demonstrated the viewer's compatibility with the widely used Jaws screen reader. An enhanced version of the PureEdge Viewer that will include compatibility with a broader range of screen reader products through support for industry standard interfaces for accessibility is in the process of being tested and upon successful completion of testing will be posted to the site.
Feel free to contact us should you have further inquiries.
Your case number is 55957. Please reference this number when contacting us in the future for further assistance.

Who gets the money now that this ridiculous idea failed? Damn I wish I had started this. I'd be sitting on a beach some where wiping margarita off my mouth with a $10,000 towel.
It didn't work for Farscape, why would it work for Enterprise.
I don't think thats it at all. Really you cannot truly test a piece of software outside of a production environment. MS is now realizing this. They are basically saying if you want to use this in a productino environment then we won't stop you but don't expect it to be perfect and let us know what breaks so we can fix it for the release version.

Wow.
That's really depressing.
But thanks that kind of information needs to be out there a lot more often.
But still a very sad page to come across.

Yes I know, in fact, let me check.... Yep there it is in my CD case along with Riki-o, 2 of my favorite bad movies.

and then it will blow.
They had that in OS 9, I used to say things like "Computer launch browser." and up would pop IE. That is hardly innovation.

It is quite possible for me to be mistaken, and thanks for the link to the PDF.

The chipset you specify doesn't support 2 x16 PCI-E slots, and opening it up to other chipsets, there are none that offer capability for 2 x16 slots
So add more:

PDF, though created by Adobe, is an open standard and anyone write applications to read and write pdf documents royalty free.

No, actually it's for Windsurfing Magazine. I am the US Distributor for Gun Sails, it was an ad for one of our latest sails. Just a 1 page full bleed.
Unfortunately I can't get the animation to work once it's down on paper.
I would check out the PDF but I am currently uploading an 85 meg ad for a new product.
Don't get mad at me it's for a magazine.
