Would love to go SCSI, but haven't been able to find cheap 120GB SCSI drives, nowhere close to the $112 I spent on each of my WD 120 JBs
Now I just need to find a backup solution that works for a 360GB array, my DDS-2 suddenly doesn't cut it.
I managed to find a Dell Latitude LX (486DX/100 16MB 512) for $20. Battery is dead but on old laptops one can replace the cells. It pays to ask arround!
I just traded my Asus A7PRO for a Tektronix 2235, 2 chan. 100Mhz Oscilloscope. Maybe you can find one to. Try: http://www.radarsurplus.com/stk/tg/tg.html

I'm still running 2 dual PIIs, they are great. But Intel missmarkets there RAM speed, PC3200 @ 4 bits wide bus I belive. vs. PC133 @ 64 bits wide (on my Asus A7Pro) 12800 vs. 8512 for non DDR. Hmm which is faster now? After all the trouble I had supporting i810's and i815's I'll never get a i8xx chipset with the possable execption of the i840. The KT133 and my XP1500 work fine together @1Ghz. Intel has shot them selves in the foot with there new hub arch. The THG video showed that P4's are great, small form factor and throttelling, for a Palm.
Since planes are powered by buring stuff, given the weight of the plane is less with H2 fuel. Then you would need to carry less energy on a hydrogen fueled plane the a conventional one. It would have less distructive potential, just DON'T run wires through the fuel tank, and test the crygenic hydrogen stirrer moters first (not another Apollo 13).
physical process tend to go in the direction that increases the total ammount of entropy(disorder) in the closed system
This "battery" would not cool down the area surrounding if because heat is a very high entopy energy type as opposed to electical energy which is very ordered. A device can create electrical current from heat but to do this it must transfer some heat to a cooler location (heat sink). Look at a steam engine, yes it does turn heat in to physical energy (which could inturn be converted to electrical energy) but it does this by increasing the entropy of the heat, from a high T in a small volume (firebox) to a lower lower T in a much higher volume ("Smoke stack"). These "Batteries" would work fine on the surface of the body, look at an avarage situation: Body T = 98.6 F room T = 68 F (not the server closet) delta T = 30.6 F . Would NOT work inside the body where delta T is 1 F
Any heat engine needs a place to sink the extra heat. The energy comes from the transfer of heat, in the direction that increases the entropy of the system. Otherwise it it propetual motion. delta T inside the body is low, maybe if they attached a large heatsink to your chest it could work. If I'm wrong, I'll just use one to power my Athlon:)
One could set up an account with a script that would auto mirror the site when it recived an email. I'm sure someone here could set that up. The script could then respond once/if it successfully mirrored the site and those links could be posted in the story
Just saw a F16 headed north at about 2500ft over Seattle (and heard serveral others). Just wondering if anyone knew anything. Can still hear them, the skies have been quiet all day till now.
If I remember we where able to lauch out last space station in one launch with one. Why can't we one to put up the rest of ISS that sitting arround KSC next week.
BTW Loc of remaining Saturn V's: KSC, JSK, and Huntsvill better the use then and save then till we notice we left something on the moon:)
I just got one of there cards. But I was going to use it for console anyways. Too bad though It seems that the only choices are Nvidia and ATI and once one or the other goes under quality will suffer.

Just think of how much bandwidth will be saved by people not bootleging StarWarez Episode III, at least not till the screeners come out.
Story 4 minutes old and image is /.ed.
206mhz strong arm 128MB ram 32MB flash looks doable, sure would beat winCE.net But might be price prohibitive.

a 17 billion dollar government funded research grant. Your tax dollars at work.
You know that explains a lot about msdos and windows.
They better give you a few public ips, let you run servers and at least 512kps upstream... (getting 256kps now for one tenth that)
Does all@aol.com still work? I remeber someone asking why they got email when it was to "all".

Try the work they contractualy bind artists to create. I might feel sorry for them if they accualy created it, or didn't cheat the artists.

200-240 single phase VAC, 47-63 Hz, with six 30 Amp circuits redundant with another six on 2 separate power grids
Can you get it bundled with 12 30A 240V 100meter extention cords? (So you could plug it directly in to every panel on the block.

Err... K5's not K6's.
The K6's, the Cyrix/IBM 6x86's and the IDT WinChips all used PR Ratings.
