Damn. It's over. Guess I'll have to try some other client to benchmark my Octane and my Athlon. How many distributed clients have IRIX, Win32, and Linux/x86 versions out there?
I thought that an OS was always classically defined as the kernel-mode code....and that the stuff GNU puts out was nothing more than userland utilities.
Inside that 'kernel source' tarball, there's a 1.1 MB binary module without source code....that's the real meat of the driver (and the thing everyone wants source to). The only source code is the OS-specific stuff.
I believe that if OS X wound up on x86, Win XP would be available for PPC about a week later. Both companies probably have builds of their OSes running on each other's hardware platforms.
"A global 'geek strike', work slowdown, or even better, (twirls moustache) a sudden 'stupidity strike' (oooh! looky! shiny server crashy! Code really bad!) would get these lusers' attention."
If I buy something from CompUSA, Microsoft, under conventional contract law (I am not a lawyer by the way), does not have the right to make me agree to terms and conditions of use after the sale. They're a third party to the sale (and have no rights to demand anything) and the practice of changing terms and conditions after the sale is already a no-no.

It literally ruins any protocol that isn't HTTP.
They don't own up to its existence.
I applaud UC Irvine for admitting the PacketShaper's presence on their LAN.
I thought AMD would be more suited to heat dissipation.
Well, even if it were able to be passed on to offspring, there would need to be offspring first.
He may have had an AMD box. Darwin doesn't like AMD systems, last I read.
Doesn't DDR meeting Quake just mean faster frame rates?
Oh....not DDR RAM....DDR the game.
You mean PPC not MIPS, right?

Wouldn't that be Googella?
(yes, I know, lame 'Google' + 'Gnutella' comment, but humor was intended)

Hmmm...sounds like you want the Windows Registry.

Probably the Onyx/Onyx2 servers with InfiniteReality graphics.

It's TheyveGonPlaidware 3000 on an Athlon overclocked to Ludicrous Speed. :p
How do we know you're not with AMD and trying to cover up the inadvertent admission of one of your execs?
It said "...20 GB of memory on a 2.5 inch hard drive..."
Someone needs to get the prices of these things down to $10. Then sell them in packs of 10, thereby creating disposable computers.

Read Atlas Shrugged.
Someone should lock this story when there are 1337 comments. :p

I'd buy 3D Realms ( "Make them an offer they couldn't refuse" ) and make them finally release Duke Nukem Forever.
He hooked up with the brain behind Microsoft Bob. Melinda french....now Melinda Gates, formerly head of the MS Bob project.
Yes, it is true.
Where's the software that turns a PS/2 into an XBox? :p
"(unless I go nuts and decide to run WinXP and play Doom3 while running a seti client with realtime priority). "
Just go dual-CPU then....cheaper in some cases.
