...and if people want to use my machine to hack into someone elses machine, why should it be MY responsibility to stop them? Surely that is up to the person whose machine is being hacked
Did i miss something or have you just said it is your responsibility?
I don't really see anyone moving off GMT anytime soon though.
Very true... however there may be a place for it in backend/server solutions where having a ubiquitous global time might be useful.
Indeed we considered using such an approach for integrating distributed systems.
We were using SQL Server 7 which has no support for timezones, and things were getting very confusing when pulling stuff in to Java from databases in different time zones.
I personally have never gotten anything close to 10 Mbits a sec on a 10 Mbit/sec ethernet connection. At best they could reasonably hope for 5, and that would assume nearly ideal conditions....
eh? i can chuck out a good 1100kbyte/s on my (half duplex) 10Mbit ethernet connection... although i've never managed to get more than 700kbyte/s incoming.
...theoretical limit on half duplex is 1220kbyte/s or so.
Unless I am very much mistaken the XScale is based on the ARM instruction set.
So Intel isn't competing against ARM with the XScale as they pay ARM to use the design.
Rather than making it suck, Intel have produced a higher clock rate version of the architecture for use in applications that need more oomph.

Has anyone else been getting ERROR where there should be adverts on washingtonpost.com??
Bit of a coincidence that...
You seen www.nakednews.com??
It might be a bit like that...

hmm... late already then!
