I think yes, though I have not tried it myself. You would need to install appropriate printer driver on the target computer (I would suggest postscript)

Re:I'd rather have some NICs, soundcards, etc.

Quad PCIe Motherboard

Sound card - perhaps no. But I would buy a general-purpose high speed ADC/DAC board if it were under $200.
16x PCI Express slot should be able to sustain quite a bit of bandwidth.
I only wish we still had command line interpreters around. It was so nice when beginners could execute their instructions directly OR add them to a program. It made playing around and learning so much quicker.
It has a command-line interpreter, a lisp-like underlying language with *nice* syntax, available on both Linux and Windows (and OS X, AFAIK) and also has some nice plotting facilities.
For a router, its mostly in the hardware, if it can keep up with real-life data rates.
Not anymore. We've recently got a new Cisco router for around $2000 which turned out to be a box with 3 100-Mbit ports. And for separate $2000 a (separate) firewall box with 4 100-Mbit ports.
I am certain that a Linux box with an opteron 1xx, couple of 64 bit PCI slots and a couple of Intel 4-port cards would be just as fast and vastly more configurable at a lower price.
Maybe 666 is just a number that represents imperfection three times over...
Actually, 6 is a very nice number - it is a product of two first primes, it describes the number of faces of a Platonic solid (cube) and it counts the number of elements of symmetric group of order 3 - the first non-commutative symmetric group.
As for 666 this number is also interesting: it is, obviously 6 times 111, but 111 is 3 times 37 which is a prime number. So 666 can be represented as 18 times 37.
Because of propensity of 37 to form numbers with visible patterns in decimal representation when 37 is multiplied by anything containing 3 (which is every 3rd number) it has often been assigned mystical significance.
I just want to add that most the likely in influence of temperature on ocean level is largely due to thermal expansion coefficient, rather than ice melting.
The ice takes a very small proportion of Earth surface compared to the surface taken up by oceans and melting it due to, say, increase of temperature by 1 degree would only raise the ocean level in inverse proportion of ocean surface/ice surface which is a large number.
The thermal expansion coefficient, on the other hand, will raise water level in proportion to water depth which is quite large - at least several kilometers in most of the ocean.
So a thermal expansion coefficient of only 0.1% per degree will result in several meters rise if the temperature of the entire ocean is raised by a degree.
Of course, in practice things are not so simple as ocean temperature affects solubility of CO2 and other compounds so I don't think there is an easy formula for the thermal expansion coefficient of ocean water.
If anyone has a link to an appropriate paper please post.
I believe that if we don't have the commitment -- in hearts, minds, and dollars -- from the American people for a manned mission to Mars, then we just shouldn't do it.
And a way to win that commitment would be to launch, for example, Terrestrial Planet Finder mission and discover a few Earth-like planets nearby.
Preferably with some signs of life, but aliens are not required - Hollywood will fill in the rest.
I run Windows 2000 on a PC that's 3 years old.. I've got a gig of ram in it, and it works great.
Please, this is *NOT* an old machine !
I find that 2-3 years old is exactly when new stuff starts working the best - you already worked out any problems that were in new install, setup all the shortcuts and - best of all - other developers have a similar machine to work with so new applications are not slow.
You are seeing only one side of the argument - a person not willing to contribute the required amount.
The other side is that the distributors of the software are not willing to contribute the software to someone who can not justify the high price tag, but would find the software valuable if it was given freely.
Some of the good reasons to work on free software is to change the world by providing universal availability of tools to access and interact with computers.
The situation of "should I buy a Verilog compiler and study digital or spice simulator and study analog" is quite different from "let's download verilog compiler and spice simulator to see what new things I can make with them both"
Besides what you pointed out, switching windings back and forth will demagnetize the magnets.
In fact, I would not be surprised to learn that there is a similar "perpetual motion" design that actually produces more energy on output than input, with the trick that it really feeds on magnet polarization.
Why is there such a fundamental disconnect between the engineers and *everyone* else in a business environment?
The engineer knows in his heart that good product means getting all the pieces done right and that any argument about what is best can be resolved by careful measurement.
The others know in their suits that correct product image will replace in the minds of unsophisticated users what the project actually does with what the image suggests it does.
To see what I mean just go through a toy store and then through Best Buy.
And, just to be precise, by "unsophisticated user" I mean one that does not go to the specs and does not try to characterize the product in a somewhat rigorous fashion.
To sum up, it's easier to program for yourself than for others, it seems. You know your job better than anyone else. Otherwise, you have to do a lot of interviewing and discussing before you code a single line.
The other advantage being that if you wrote the code yourself, you don't need to get used to it in order to be productive.
I like to express this in terms of latency vs bandwidth - if you code yourself you save on latency, but if you have others to program you increase the bandwidth.
Often, in software or science having smaller latency trumps bandwidth in a big way.
Once X == Y, an oil field becomes an energy sink, not an energy source..
Money enters again as if there is a cheap energy source (say nuclear plant nearby), one can afford to sink more energy to extract oil than the result actually produces.
This would actually be pretty good as we will still be able to have plastic around, but will likely gradually switch to other energy sources for transportation.
In addition one should not forget that Earth atmosphere gets routinely bombarded by cosmic rays - some of which are very fast protons, much faster than what we can create in the best colliders.
So if there was a way to create an indefinitely growing black hole with particle collisions this would have happened over the millions of years that Earth has been around.
Even if no wars ever occurred weapons would still be made. Why ? Weapon is a really nice intermediate project - concentrate some energy in a particular distant point at a particular time. Easy to gauge success of. (This is similar to, say, computing million digits of pi or e)
Judging by the fights on the stadiums some humans will find a way and desire to inflict damage even if all the usual weapons are removed and the law is against them. One could hope that having something very destructive results in military pruning out folks who don't think straight.
So making weapons helps science (good), increases steaks for those who want to make war - hopefully beyound their tolerance (good, but risky), attracts money to science (good), produces paranoia (bad) - does not look like one can decide in general, but has to go on a per-case basis.
Once, I jumped from the roof of my junior high school after having cast "feather fall" on myself... it was at that point that friends and family intervened.
This is a common mistake. Please do not forget that feather fall spell only acts on characters which have a very large piece of cloth attached by ropes to their shoulders. This was sadly omitted from the manual.
Also, feather fall only affects your downward movement and if you push off too much you can still crash into the neighboring building.

I believe rdesktop can be used to connect via RDP.
So why do think this is called a hyperlink ?
Some things should *not* be open sourced. One of those nearest and dearest to me would be the safety plans for my kids' schools.
So how much do you trust the competence of people who created those plans ?
Take a look at R language.

PCB does do routing, albeit it is not perfect. But with a few traces done by hand it can get a hint.

I was actually hoping that one would be able to pick it on Dell's website and knock off a few more bucks off the purchase of my next Linux notebook.
