I was told by a friend that the margin MS were asking retailers in the UK to take on the XBOX meant the shops would make a loss on the console themselves (in sales time and space).
We all know that the only reason the Japanese do this stuff is as a precursor to bi-pedal mechs all the technicians grew up with (Gundam, Robotech & co.)
For my disertation I wrote a system that locked specific lines in files and then used set theory to manage locking.
The next step from there was to detect when one function/method relied on another holding still and then deny locks on the later until the former had finished development.
There were other rules with timeout on locks and stuff but I hope that explains it.

As an experienced UNIX user, who as ignored and avoided emacs like the plague, how do you quit it without reading a 4 meg man file, or killing the app?
Distro instalation cds already do the detecting and the results can be cached if the game is 'installed'.
Plus, windows needs rebooting between games, so it's not much of a concept leap. In terms on tech support and long term stability, a dedicated OS is the best solution.
My only problem with it is letting untrusted software write to the disc directly.
By skeleton, I meant in terms of included system applications.
I once talked to a Jehovah's witness (Actually I do this quite a lot and find it very interesting).
He said that to understand the Bible I would have to sit down and study it for 4 years, and then I would be enlightened.
I turned to him and said "Well if I spent 4 years reading any book, I'm hardly going to turn around and say 'Well that was a load of Cr*p!'".
What I'm trying to say: Is the current infrastructure (SDL, etc.) a viable solution and assuming your answer is yes, why should I take you seriously?
I'm thinking one alternative would be a larger version of Allegro or something.
Wrong, if done properly. Just make gaming more like the Amiga was and ship a skeleton OS with the game.
Ship the game on a bootable CD with the required distribution/setup on the disc. The CD would either run the game like that (using a swap partition if possible) or 'install' to a partition.
Imagine games with completely clean installs and de-installs. Linux is pretty much THE world class embedded OS , why not treat it like one?
My Dad writes them on the monitor itself, or infact anywhere in reach. The computer room is decorated by thousands of passwords written in strange locations on the walls of the room.
One example is a list of a hundred-or-so seemingly random letters, which are in fact the passwords to Lemmings on the Amiga version.
If I bought a shrink-wrapped box with the word LINUX on the front I would be pretty pissed off if all I got was a kernel. Similarly with the kernel plus the GNU (gnu.org) tgz packages installed.
For me (and I think, most people) Linux refers to the whole distribution (as in the article).
If there is one thing open source nuts like to do its to impose a term after another has become coloquial (see hacker/cracker). Doesn't make anything easier though.
What an incredible waste of money. The idea that America can do anything meaningful on its own in space is, well, really stupid is the best thing I can say about it. Better to put our money into a bigger pot with other countries and actually accomplish more than make work for downsized DND scientists.
What do you want to bet the hq of this effort will be downtown Florida?
I'll be writing to my senator straightaway on this one.
You forgot that this might be seen as a unification tactic. Political movements that can help unify Canada get a lot of funding if they need it (see the railroads).
You might find Quebec actually getting patriotic about something without a 'le' in front of it.

And on a related note, by those standards we should all sell our computers and donate the money to charity.
ummmm.... If everyone is selling; who buys?

Have you tried Ctrl-clicking on the preset zoom buttons in the toolbar.
Got that from an ex-Adobe employee.
Everyone else said yes they think it should be signed.

Did the British attack America when it was financing the IRA?
Did the R Daneel Olivaw/Lije Bailey stories REALLY need to be tied to Foundation?
I bet it sold a lot of books though. Some fans probably hadn't had a chance to get at the empire series (I know I hadn't).
Ps. I think the most tenuous link was Daneel having priveledged access to Gaia.
yeah ok, it would have to be installed to a partition (as above). It was just an idea.
Don't need to 'reboot', use init.

Because there are 30,000 of them of course.
