Yeah - it really says family 6, model 4 stepping 2 - best of all I must have bought this like 6~7 months ago - I even verifyed it in windows using wcpuid. Its a 1200 mhz athlon running in a A7V266-E. (used to be in an older rev A7V)
For the same reason there's only what - 100+ titles for the PS2 in the US - no-one wants to translate titles released in Japan - I highly doubt it had anything to do with sega jumping the gun. There are thousands of good titles for the saturn, but you better know japanese first (and get some mods to play them). I have a friend who just returned from there and he says there are literally thousands of cool titles for the ps2 - we'll never see 99% of them though.
I agree - and someone should mod you up. I never even had a nintendo when they came out for the simple reason my Commodore 64 was good enough. And when the Amiga came out I remember everyone saying - "oh thats just a games machine" - and actually it played some of the best games at the time.
Commodore Amiga also had the A) first CD based game console CDTV (which they mention almost as a footnote - despite the fact that it was designed by the same guy who gave us pong) and B) the first 32 bit console the CD-32.
Its just like the "history of multimedia" in new media magazine a while back (which I think is defunct) despite the fact that Commodore used to advertise in their rag - they didn't mention Amiga at all. Yet when I was using the machine full time I couldn't imagine doing multimedia on anything else.
You know - you can complain (or your friend can) to the public utility comission - I think what microsoft is doing to the provisioning is illegal in most states/cities. At least in Oregon qwest usually gets moving after complaints to the puc.
You know its through constant vilgilance that our country is kept in check - saying America can do no wrong is blantantly ignorant.
I love this country - I love the fact that it says in writing that I am allowed say whatever I want. I don't like the fact that sometimes people think its politcally incorect to say certian things. Personally I think someone who speaks out more often about what is going wrong or right with this country is the most American of them all because he/she is excercising their right to free speech. And that right above all was actually paid for with peoples lives. Why die for something you don't think should be used or in your case should be used in such a way it doesn't offend conservatives and the bush family?
I know the editors will not read this comment, nor will anyone who read this care, but I hope that anyone who does read this post will maybe understand that sometimes you should take into consideration other people's ideas and thoughts and not just have a one track mind and think that whatever Slashdot rights is legitimacy
Btw - I'm sick of that line getting used to get extra mod points! Someone should do something about it! (end sarcasm mode)
I noticed a huge amount of instability from revision to revision - I do have some 2.4.x kernels running on certian sparc machines (where ip filters is needed), but there are certian annoyances present that I could go into great detail with.
Like for instance - hmm the dhcp server isn't responding - well its pinging okay, still not responding. Restarting the dhcp server doesn't help - the only thing that does is restarting the interface - really really wierd.
The decision is this: Which will make you happier? Your dream job, or your dream paycheck?
I would give anything to do my dream job, unfortunately its not always an option - failing that I wouldn't mind getting paid well for the awful one I might be able to get (I'm unemployed right now).
funny - in my last exit interview my boss said - "its sad that there was nothing you could do to not get layed off" - what he meant is that sales were so terrible for our little startup that they had to cut people off (how they are going to survive without any unix admins is beyond me).
Talk to anyone who was left after a big riff - did they get rid of the dumbest people? No - they often keep them because their too stupid to leave anyhow.
I spoke to someone who is still working at the company I got layed off from (twice) - he says that everyone there is so nervous about being next that productivity has gone down the toilet. Companies frequently forget that their most valuable asset is in fact people - however eventually when people get too freaked out to go to work the companies get screwed.
What I don't get is that multi billion dollar transnational corperations have to lay off 100,000 people when the economy takes a slight dip - is it all based on speculation? What gets me is there are countries - like Japan - who are doing much much much worse in the economy right now then america - right now banks there are actually cutting their losses with bad assets and closing peoples accounts - and why not? Their economy has lost over 80% of its value since the 80's, if that happened in the US and the trend here holds true 120% of us would all be out of work.
Yes - they made fun of me until I bought a PC when I held onto my Amiga. Get used to it - its a fundametal law of computing these days - the best don't always win.
Thats an overgeneralization though (someone should mod you funny) - because a) tom posts many articles that never end up here and b) I'll bet slashdot posts more stories from the New York Times then from toms - I for one didn't see a toms hardware article the last 2 weeks - and I've been unemployed for the last two weeks so I do have the time read over slashdot a lot now. When I was working the IT department of a small (now) startup I was way way too busy to read over all these hardware sites for info I was interested in.
All slashdot is doing is pointing out an interesting article (I was interested at least) that I'm sure many office workers and IT people are interested in who generally don't have time to visit all these hardware sites all the time. Plus to boot they provide a forum to discuss the link. This is after all what news sites on the internet do.
Well that makes sense actually:) - still your the first to make this arguement - I've never heard about the application but it sounds like a good idea.
Personally the major holdup for me when even considering buying a ipod is the fact that I have to buy a 1000~4000 dollar mac dongle to go along with it.
well there's no trojan inside it - at least nav ce 7.6 doesn't think so. All it told me was it couldn't initialize the video, and it looks like the current version they stripped the version symbols out of the.dll/.xvd files. Classic signs for a trojan - but unless he invented the virus like this morning...

which, if you're like me, you have your retirement savings invested in.
:(.
we can all learn a lot from a company called enron

Thats funny - I have an older athlon (socket A, ceramic package) that says that.

To bad chess doesn't have any supersonic jet fighters with laser guided bombs to destroy your knight from 5 feet up

Ever take a look in the linux kernel source? There's a lot of code and drivers that came from bsd...
You know - you can complain (or your friend can) to the public utility comission - I think what microsoft is doing to the provisioning is illegal in most states/cities. At least in Oregon qwest usually gets moving after complaints to the puc.
I don't blame them - you know there's like 10 different ways to do each and every task on most routers.
Not to mention the documentation for these products is rather confusing.
Oh boy I did it now - I offended bot linux and aol users. I'll probably go to hell for that.

Like AOL can switch Windows users to Linux - its not that easy to use.
I've heard about these - my friend who is the USAF says just about everyone who was ever stationed in Saudi Arabia has one of those.

I think you have to pay IDC - thats who the magazines and companies use to find out marketshare. I do recall it being 8% in the early 90's though.
Hey - I lost my job last week - and I'm technically minded - tell me where I can apply :).
It wasn't so long ago when Apple had 8% of the market. Did I miss something?
Yes - they made fun of me until I bought a PC when I held onto my Amiga. Get used to it - its a fundametal law of computing these days - the best don't always win.
