  1. Cool Beans on Go Fast With Wireless 1394 · · Score: 1

    this will be so cool. to be able to have firewire tech with networking will actualy bring great transfer rates since every device gets its own bandwidth assigned to it and does not share it with the other computers.

    If you had 4 computers on a 1394 network then each would get 100 Mbps transfer rates! cool

  2. Re:Abuse Creates Policies and Laws! on Carl Kadie Responds · · Score: 2

    good Idea!! lets go even farther. we let the police set up cameras in every room in our homes and give them access to our computers.

    then we let them make random and unanounced searches of our homes.

    trust me you will thank god when they catch that maniac living next door who is planning to make a derogitory speech about the government.

    trust me.

    aparently you can not read.

    I said the teaching field WAS. do you remember the eighties? teachers were forced to be sub. teachers until a position opened up. If that is not saturated then what is?

  6. DMCA on How Printable Computers Will Work · · Score: 1

    I wonder how the DMCA will be applied to somthing like this.

    this would probably just become vaporware since it will be so hard to control the distrobution, no one would make any money on it.

    yeah well wait ten years. by then the computer field will be as saturated as the engineering feild is and the teaching field was. then we will need a strong union because we will get fired at the drop of a hat.

  15. Re:What in the hell are you talking about. on Mandrake 8.0 Beta Released · · Score: 1

    ok well then here is a question....lets say that by the time GCC 3.0 comes out, there is so much of a user base that depends on your release and so many apps will get broken, will you begin to develope GCC 2.96 into your own compiler so as not to disrupt the user base?

  18. Re:VIA chipsets suck on Mandrake 8.0 Beta Released · · Score: 1

    well there is a problem. PCI specs are public domain so one man's PCI bus is the same as the next (if they stick with the standard).

    AGP however is a patent of Intel and therfore for competing vendors to use AGP they have to reverse engineer it. this process is not always (most of the time actualy) acurate and one does not therefore get the same performance from chipset to chipset. to bad intel won't open up the specs.

    its the principal behind it. there was no reason for RH to make a stupid move like that at all.

    they are beginning to act like M$ by doing the good ole embrace and extend move.

    I can see it now there will be GCC 3.0 and RHCC and all RPMs will be made with RHCC so everyone will have to follow RH!!

    ok

    who cares I am not using Red Hat untill they are using a stadard compiler. gcc2.96 is full of fetures that will not be supported in 3.0 and will therefore break any program that uses it, if the person wants to move that program to another machine.
