You would be better off just continuing to buy gas at the gas station. What is happening here is that the metal is being burned in the presence of steam. This frees up Hydrogen and also very large amounts of heat. Problem is that you need at least as much energy to refined the metal from its original oxide (which is what is also left after the metal is burnt in the car). The regining of aluminium, and likely the other metals, consumes very large amounts of electricity which likely came from burning fossil fuels. On top of that the metal coils are going to use more fuel to distribute because they are heavier than the amount of gas required to produce the same amount of energy.
If you believe this is viable, I have a cute perpetual motion machine for sale.
It just so happens that conventional hydrocarbon fuels are a very efficient (from the consumer perspective) way of concentrating and transporting energy. Nothing else can match it.
So, if Solaris will never compete seriously with xBSD and Linux, why would anyone steal its features? And the assumption that once all those features have been stolen there would be "no compelling reason to run Solaris on x86" suggests there is a compelling reason now. It also suggests that as of Open Sourcing Solaris, Sun and the community are not going to add any more features to Solaris.... I am confused at your logic.
If a Dell service person is in Starbucks then it suggests they have at least some initiative/intelligence. As opposed to a Dell service moron in a sweat shop contact centre.
It depends.... (a) on whether or not you have QoS configured on your router etc. (b) on whether you have a full Voip phone or just a softphone that runs on your pc.
The article equally could have said they could be dangerous "if equipped with 50 Megaton Nuclear war heads" but did not. Is this because they did not want to spread fear and panic?????
What a good idea - a third party plugin for Office. Two wee problems. First you would have to reverse engineer it as there is no API so you could not guarantee full compatibility. Second, what happens at the next Office upgrade?
That is my take as well. And it send a clear message to all responsible to date that they have stuffed up and that the project needs re-organising so that new managers can sort it out. Not good for company morale.
Download Solaris for free. It includes LDAP plus Samba etc. Includes fairly easy admin tools (for example webmin) The LDAP is first class and integrated fully with the OS and Samba. You can do it all and nothing is "cobbled together".
The reverse engineering is only about 90% done and will likely get little better. It is good enough for many, but the missing bits are the main reasons corporates attempts to trial OOo etc. fail. And the reason the reverse engineering is not done is because.doc and.xls is not open. Nowhere does Microsoft publish all the document specs. Contrast this with TCP/IP which is an open standard and just works.
The "99.9% uptime is expected" suggests a fixation with Windows NT on flaky servers. 99.9% equates to 876 hours of outage a year. Quite frankly the requirement for 99.9% availability suggests the equirer does not know what they are talking about.
If their strategy is to wind up Microsoft then this should help. I can imagine that Ballmer will not be happy, but the vendor responsible for supplying office furniture to Microsoft Corporate office may be.
The proposed law draft, as it goes forward for consideration, does not reflect Microsoft's requirements. A single unsolicited email from an organisation touting their products will be considered SPAM.
That would be the same catalyst required to convert lead to gold.
Why is it that people don't get it, it ALWAYS requires at least as much energy input to crack hydrogen from water as would be released from burning the hydrogen. In this case the enegy comes from the electricity. But if you don't believe that, I have this cunning perpetual motion machine for sale......
"I would love to see the pre-paid market get in touch with reality. No more crap like "you must buy a card every X days or lose your credits and phone number" or "we only have 2 phones to chose from"."
Likely depends on the Telco. Here in NZ you need to put at least some money on the phone annually, don't need to buy any cards, I had my prepay stolen and had a new sim card with my old number the following day and there are sh*t loads of prepay compatible GSM phones. I don't argue with your comments about the per minute rate though.
How the fsck did you find that out? More importantly how many animal anuses did you lick (properly or otherwise) and which produced the most fantastic low?
Don't forget, this is a Micro$oft proposal. The finacial button will link you to a range of debt consolidation services, pyramid schemes etc. from helpfull companies that have paid Microsoft to link them in.
And so will file leakers, if the law is signed off as is. The 3 years is a MAX. This forum sounds like it expects it to be applied 100% of the time, which is clearly stupid...
The entertainment value of/. is priceless. WTF would mod that post as insightfull, until I think of the context (/.) and the reference (a black hole). Long may/. continue:=)
And from reading article I get the idea that the jurors did not have to just trust the simulation. The car door plastic melted onto the passenger's leg gave reasonably convincing evidence as to who was driving (which appears to be the root of the case).

Which is pretty much exactly what the CIO did say.

So why does MA want an open standard format?????

Netscape Directory Server is now Sun One Directory Server and it is pretty damned amazing. Performance leaves AD for dead.

"Um, the words "open" and "licensing" are not compatible. Not in my book leastways."
Right. And what do you think the L in GPL, MPL, etc. stands for?

Oh, sorry, forgot where I was...
" I played with it on a test box for a few months."
Which suggests you were using an earlier beta/Express version. In which case try the GA release, it is faster.
What $50? It is a free download, which also includes Star Office.
f course if you want support.....
"As for reintroducing an old problem, have you ever tried to fix a leaky pipe?
Yes, I have. What does this have to do with the conversation at all?"
I assume this vulnerability affects the Windows 3D Pipes screensaver...
