I would think extracting 3D from video footage would be better. This thing can only map places where it can ride. Digital video cameras are pretty decent nowadays. I have seen university projects that say they have gotten pretty decent detection rates from video, but never seen any code nor binary:-/
..now that WiFi is getting used more and more. Now that handhelds type systems are made that could easely do (Tiny-)X? Or would you want to use VNC? here probably will be a time where you want to use that handheld outside your own WiFi-AP range. Then you would rely on your slow 'broad-band' connection. VNC needs a lot more bytes than X, if you want to actually use it.
On the other hand, I guess you propose a hack that will directly render your QT/GTK/whatever programs instead of going thrue the TCP/IP stack. So you could always say to your QT/GTK/.. programs to render via TCP/IP this time. But that could open the doors to things that will be 'implemented for network transparency in the future'.
Take a look at morhix.org, especialy at the LightGui version. But anyways, most modern software runs nicely on these things. Memory is everything, you know.
It won't run 3D games newer than a year or 3. And DivX/DVD is only to be tried when not under your desktop OS, DVDs can be played on via the MPEG2 decoder on the newer EPIA boards though.
There are also Mini-ITX boards that supprt AMD and Intel processors, but they won't be as silent off coarse.
Hmm, yes I know, that would *work*. But I have a lot of mailboxes (~30), so that would mean a lot of importing.
I did get Mozilla Mail on Linux to recognize my mailboxes imported under Mozilla Mail on Windows (from Microsoft Internet Mail and News). but uhm, haveing my inbox over would be nice too.
You should know that most users browse with their browsers useagent string set to look like IE. Most of these stats pages will show them as IE.
For example at my uni the exams subscription (sp?) page can't be viewed with the default Opera string, you get a warning about unsupported browsers. So I set it (temporarily) to IE and use the page anyways.
If you use dial-up, try Opera + WebWasher (or any bannerblocker). It really decreases the time between hitting the url and (pre-)viewing the page. btw, most of the time it's the latency between you and the ISPs proxy that makes it slower, and it adds another layer of parsing and (slow HD) lookup. At least that's what I've read, and using my ISPs proxy was slower most of the time.
Talking about slowness, man I'm spoiled with kernel 2.6.0-test4. Just any heavy HD activity (defrag anyone?) on Windows XP makes things so much slower. I don't even notice updatedb + kernel compile running on 2.6. Guess that's the "eXPerience" they were talking about in the Microsoft commercials.
Under Gentoo doing something like "emerge genkernel kernel-2.6; genkernel" would suffice, AFAIK (don't use Gentoo). Makeing a shortcut-icon that does this after asking the root password is possible.
And in general, I do hope kautoconfigure get's some attention from developers (shameless plug).
Finally, it's told to us [uhm "(un)endliche Ruhe im Karton" means so much more though:-)]. It took long for such a product to appear on the mass-market. The manufacturer will be hardly able to produce enough to satisfy market demand. Though it's promising on paper we will now need to wait for priceinfo and more information. One thing is clear already, the price will be far below DIY construction sets, since Zalman is known to be specialized in mass production. The 6 heatpipes for the CPU, 2 for the graphicscard and 10 for the harddisk will keep the system as cool as possible. We are looking forward to this new Zalman case and hope to say say bye bye to our fans and noisemakers by Christmas.
Off coarse I'll try to inform you about this in the future [ "Ja naturlich bleibe ich am Ball..." ???]
What's more to say about this thing, only creme de la creme superlatives will suffice. It makes you feel all soddy inside [ "Da bekomme ich feuchte Augen"]. Heatpipes (18 !!), and more heatdispensers than you will probably need.
It will be perfected silence because the case is fully sealed. It's the first one where even optical drives will be decoupled from the case.
Better is not possible!
More silent is not possible!

Now to hope that 'we' in the west get some of the (linux) goodies developed in China. This sort of exchange has always been difficult because of the language barrier. In both ways. Hope they used i18n etc.
btw, I see people from China trickling in from time to time in the Knoppix forums. Too bad for them that the Simplified Chinese support is missing in vanilla Knoppix. There are Chinese remasters though, AFAIK.
Hehe, just thought someone would try to do that:-)
When I used a similar search engine, called SubMe, years ago (2000-2001) I researced a fair bit about quantum computing for a school project. At that time there also was a Dell-alike computer distributor called "Quantum Computers". Leading to bazilion results, which setteled down after 2/3 batches of searching and aproval/disaproval.
Congratulations, you have proven yourself and the rest of the world that you don't need it. If Google is good enough (for you) then why moan?
The guy made it 'all for himself', because he does (like me) find it difficult to find to right keywords from time to time. But because he isn't selfish he wantsto share it with the rest of the us.
Then you never searched for anything difficult to find. I also know these tricks, but for example, if you want to search for a search engine similar to WhittleBit, what query would you give? No, related:whittlebit.com is not going to give you good/all results.
Hint, try to use "smart search engine" or "smart search tool", find that it includes about any 'tad bit smarter than dumb' search engine.
Have fun:-)
PS: Ever had a searchengine that won't lead you to the homepage of the manufacterer Quantum every time you search something about "quantum computing"? This one will, I hope, just like SubMe did...
Last.fm (now being bundeled with audioscrobbler.com) has a better system for music rating than GNoD.net. Because it watches what people actually listen too instead of what they think they listen.
I like this kind of "smart systems" or "AI", we just ought to find a better description than those.

and what exactlly niche is that?? drastically overpowered portables and underpowered desktop devices?
In the 1970s they said people didn't need PCs. Who are you to say that "overpowered portables" are useless?

Okay, added this article's factoid to the Wikipedia.
Since the majority of the poster doesn't seem to understand this.
And, will this affect your personal search results in the future?
