As far as development tools, they're overwhelmingly Windows based.
The majority of Xilinx' tools are available in Linux versions. I actually really prefer the Linux versions as using them from command line is far easier under Linux than under Windows (provided you want to script your process instead of using the GUI, probably not as useful for someone just getting started). Also, AFAIK, the larger Xilinx FPGAs require the *nix tools for a guaranteed Map/PAR due to memory limits, etc. You can use the Win32 version, but once utilization gets high enough, the Win32 versions may not be able to completely PAR the design.
They're not shutting down the Mars Rovers, Spirit and Opportunity, correct? They're talking about shutting down the Lander, Phoenix. The Rovers are still going strong.
That reminds me of my favorite engineering prof in college. He had his slide rule mounted in a glass case above his desk. Below the case was a hammer and a sign that read "In case of power failure, break glass."
And if you voted for a Republican sometime in the past dozen or so years, but haven't learned to change your ways, stay home.
And the democrats are better how? Both parties are working for the same ends. The only way we'll have any hope of a shift away from the coming police state is if a couple/few third parties rise up and kill off the current bi-factional ruling party.
The obvious answer here is: Because they have a corrupt senator working for them.
Corrupt? Yes, but isn't that sort of pork-barrel socialism standard practice these days? What good is having a government unless you can use it to steal from other people to pay for your bridges?
Maybe she meant 'hard drive'? The majority of the people I supported while working IT during college used the terms RAM and hard drive interchangeably.
There's a whole mess of congresscritters over on Capitol Hill that need to grow a pair! It's time to start checking and balancing, for cryin' out loud!
I've never used one, but I know a large portion of the deaf community where I live use Sidekicks. I see them all the time as I'm walking around the area.
Speaking as one who sat under a professor who only used PowerPoint for his differential equations class... allow me to say "DUH!".
The contrast that year was stark. One professor I had was old school and only used the blackboard. We all came out of his class understanding (mostly) what we were taught in lecture. The other only used PowerPoint and we hardly learned anything in his class. We had to do all the learning in office hours.
All PowerPoint allowed him to do was shove more information down our throats in a shorter period of time. More of a brain dump as opposed to actual teaching. -gb

If you think the government has been staying out of the financial industry for the past 70+ years, you haven't been paying attention.
Exactly! And as for this...
'I don't see there's going to be much of a slowdown, just because wireless devices are so much more of a necessity than they used to be,' Wu said.
Yeah, until a hard recession/depression redefines "necessity".

There are only, now, 21 of these planes left.
There are only 20 after this crash. They only built 21 operational B-2s.
Cue the hawks in 3...2...1...
The government removing a tax? You must be new here.
Tarheel? Thems fightin' words, son! It's WOLFPACK...
Speaking of Asian (written) languages, don't a lot of them read top to bottom?
How to accommodate those?
Rotate your screen 90 degrees...

Ok, back to work.

Unwanted car removal. Plant it in your front yard and in about 3 days flat all those old cars you have on blocks will completely disappear!
Scientologists aren't crackpots, though. They're a very deliberate scam.
And they're not Christians either.

Isn't that what the browser reload button is meant to do?
Seriously! When I read the summary, I was really confused. My first thought was "UNC has electricity!?"
China's Communists, much like the former Soviet Union's, believe world socialism is inevitable....
With the way our government has been going in the past 50 years, it's looking like they're right.

Seems like a good way to encourage people to be more productive. That'll probably work out well for the nation in the long run.
C'mon, we all know the cops are never in the wrong! After all, they're working for the good of the public, ya know...

I'm interested in seeing how Apple solved this problem with the iPhone
This might not be used on the iPhone, but I'm sure we'll see this eventually... Apple's invisible interface.

GP must be a Carolina grad... ;)
