Actually, the work on an LNX-BBC card for powerpc only recently started and will definately not be ready in time for the 2.0 release.
Anyway, it'll have to be a separate disc from the regular x86 BBC, and we have several other issues to tackle before deciding on the CD form-factor for it.
So, when I run lspci -t on my PC, the AGP bus is actually a subset of the main PCI bus, and every other PC I've checked (3 total) has the AGP branching off the PCI bus. It seems to me that before you go around speeding up AGP you should probably fix that first.
I would like to point out that there is no such thing as "Firewire 2.0". The Firewire protocol is designed to operate at a variety of speeds in a way similar to (but not the same as) the way USB 1.1 supports high and low speed devices. The Firewire protocol supports (I believe) 100, 200, 400, 800, and 1600 Mbit. Obviously higher speeds are harder to implement than the lower speeds, and most Firewire devices are pegged at 400 right now. Of course, when 800 Mbit firewire comes out, your still going to have to buy a new controller.
Anyway, I don't think anybody should really worry about saturating a USB 2.0 or a Firewire connection any time soon.
Because Intel's been pushing the more processor-intensive USB over firewire. Firewire does most of its work on the firewire host chip, rather than on the processor (Which is part of the reason it does peer to peer natively).
Bottom line: Intel supports anything that slows down the CPU, because then people will go out and buy newer, faster ones.
So, one night, I go to sleep with my computer on like I normally do, and when I wake up, it's off. So I try to turn it on, and nothing happens. Then we try a new power supply and that works. Then we open up the other power supply and find out that it's pretty charred and melted. So, we thought we'd at least salvage the fan, and that was seized up like nobody's business.
Maybe if they had actually showed episodes, instead of pre-empting it with other crap, it'd have worked better. Or they could've started showing the episodes at the start of the season, when people haven't figured out viewing schedules yet.
Actually, I got bored last week and opened the box. The cat died of starvation and has been decomposing for years. The radioactive isotope still hasn't decayed, however.

For more fun, use a microwaved CDR.

Clockless chips will never take off. How are people supposed to draw incorrect conclusions about which chip is the fastest when there's no MHz/GHz rating?

I'm just pissed they're putting spoilers on the front page now.
But wit fresnels you get that nice Brazil effect
I know Xinerama has support for overlapping parts of screens already, they probably have support for leaving gaps, too.

My Radeon VE dualheads just fine.

Actually, it's in 2.4.19, too. I played around with it a bit, but I couldn't get bing to measure a bandwidth over about 175Mbit.
I think you're forgetting about Adam West.
I think it's just because first they had George Reeves, then Christopher Reeve, and they wanted to continue the trend.

Moral: What? There has to be a moral now?
Of course, if you don't install the patch, they'll just hack into your computer and install drm anyway.
My old K6-2 decoded divx fine, why do we need specialized hardware?
I have no idea what the lock picks are for. I know what they are used for...but not for this setting.
My guess is steam tunnels.
I've had just about enough of you and the Japanese. Will you please shut up about the Japanese?
Too bad the flash plugin has been crashing my mozilla lately.
What's really a coincidence is that Nick Moffitt has been annoying Outlook users with this bug for well over a year.
The only problems here are that the Iranians didn't eat pork, as well as that SlashNET is a major BSD troll hangout, not linux.

Actually, it's "WHAT HATH GOD WROUGHT", in all caps. Morse code actually used all caps specifically so that God would never be lowercase.
x86 assembly? Now that's what I call portability!
