How likely is it that people who didn't preorder will get a copy? Should I even bother to try yet, or should I wait for the next pressing or what ever of CD's?
The main difference is about eight inches minus for you and about a couple hundred pounds plus for you, you fat fuck!
Right. Like you even have a dick.
That's not courage, that's stupidity! You have no fear at all of being a clueless fuck in public with your real name. So people can say "That Scott Lockwood, what a hosebag!"
You know what? If they say it WITH a REAL NAME, I don't care - I'll respect that opinion. AC's can lick the crap from my anus.
At least I'm not married to a total behemoth.
My wife is the most wonderful, worthwhile person you'll ever meet, except you'll never meet her. At least I can get married, unlike you - you smelly, pimple covered, dorky, nerdy, geeky ass.
Oh, and learn how to CLOSE an itallics tag you worthless bag of crap. Try using the button NEXT to submit.
You know what the main difference between you and I is? I'm not afraid to loose more karma at this point, and post with my real name, unlike you, you anonymous piece of shit.
No, this has become Troll Combat at this point. Damn Trolls have lately really detracted from my slashdot experiance, an since Taco Etc. will not help me, I'm helping myself: My solution? Troll the Trolls. Okay, it's not the MOST ORIGINAL solution, but hey, is ANYTHING really new at this point? I didn't think so.
You know, I'd love to see this as much as the next guy, but isn't this a tad like every other story we've seen that promisses us a technological marvel "just around the corner" so to speak that never arives? It's interesting, but I wonder if we'll ever actually SEE one? I've been hearing about this kind of optical storage for at least 5 years now, and have never seen a single bit of technology make it into production. Has anyone else?
As long as big business is allowed to buy and sell our polliticians, and as long as PAC's are allowed to spend unlimmited amounts of money on "issue" adds, this will never change. The American people, and privacy are an unpleasent NUSENCE at best to our current governement, which is too busy, enraptured by the almighty dollar, to pay attention to it's citizens most basic needs for relief of human suffering, much less privacy concerns online.
How on earth is this overrated? Someone is just looking to avoid being meta'd to death, or at worst is targeting me personally. WHY!?!!?
I have a few clients who USE this kind of software, and my point about commercially available training *IS* based in fact! The last person I setup I WANTED to setup with the GIMP, but she knew photoshop and didn't want SEVERAL more books! Not EVERYONE is a geek who can just "RTFM" and off they go! If I could have sent her to a CLASS in using the GIMP, then that would have been different - HOW is this observation over rated?!?!?!?!

Where is that in the source? I asked a friend who is a regular poster on lkml and he didn't mention that it had already been done when I asked him about it...
It was suggested to me by another good tech that there would be an issue of this chewing up CPU cycles. I'm wondering how this problem was addressed, and weither it could be ported to Linux easily?
I have to admit, this is the first time since 1994 that I have been considering dumping Slackware very seriously... Does anyone know where we can get the other two disks the install script mentions? I have the first two from the ISO image - I will NOT buy a boxed set if it's the only way to get the other two disks - I'll just wait for Slack 7.1 "any day now".
Sig, you fail to consider that we already HAVE a law that addresses this: In anti-trust matters, if the case meets the criteria, a case MAY be fast tracked to the SC, so as to preserve the rights of consumers at large (read: ALL Americans) rather than the rights of the few or the one (I.E. Microsoft). This "Victory" on MS's part *is* a defeat for those of us who now get screwed by MS longer. Hopefully, the Govt. will file to have the case heard by the SC, which can snatch the case out of the Appeals Court and hear it directly if they so choose.
Ahem! "Next, the researchers wanted to know how old the halite was. Luckily, it's already known how long it takes iodine-129 to decay into xenon-129. Using this information, Whitby and colleagues calculated that the salt crystals - and the water - in the meteorite formed only two million years after the birth of the Solar System 4.57 billion years ago."
Now, as to how ACCURATE that is, I will never know. I'm not a geologist.
To Paraphrase from the Crusoe launch, because it will last much much longer on the same battery. The analogy that was put forth at the launch was good: Imagine you have two cars - Intel, which will go 100MPH and will travel 100 Miles on a tank of gas, and Crusoe, which only does 90, but will travel 300 miles on the same tank of gas. Have you ever had a long or even coast to coast plane flight? Ever try to get any WORK done on that flight? I once, after draining my battery camped out in the bathroom of the plane for like 1/2 an hour - doing work and charging the battery.:-) Basically I left the bathroom once the flight attendant started persistantly bugging me - I told her I was sick, but she was still mad at me, and I STILL didn't get enough of a charge out of the bathroom to finish the flight. A Crusoe based device will SOLVE that problem for me, big time. Not to mention long car trips. With the advent of cellular modems (it's like a Cell Phone/Modem in one PCMCIA card) I never even need to be offline ever again (assuming I can use it with this device - if not, I'll wait for one that does what I need) and that would be a HUGE help!

Sure, close enough! He wants 2.0 series Kernels, so Debian is a good distro since they're still using them!
Fawking Trolls!
Well, no need to wait! You can go grab 2.0.38 right now! Or, just install Debian, same thing...

Youch! Is that what kept happening to me??? After all this time, NOW I find out?!?!?!

Amazing how every post I've made that has been moderated, has been moderated down as Overrated. This can't be coincidence.
