PalmOS has had a TCP/IP stack for all of the 3.x versions of the OS. I think the stack made it's appearance with Palm Pilot Professional. Not being portable is kind of a hinderance, but it is designed around the hardware and has a more mind share than any other PDA OS. Epoc is nice, but there just aren't that many PDA's that use it.
He's a professional male ice skater. He was really big in 1988, but I haven't heard much from him since. I think he's in Ice Capade's or something like that now. There was another Brian in the same Olympics as Boitano, one was from the US and the other was from Canada. The media made a really big deal of it. Thought you should know.

The fundamental difference between a processor and an OS, is that a processor can be switched for anthoer one with no change in the operating system or programs running on top of it. This used to be clearer with the old socket seven boards where one could switch a Pentium for a K6 and then just boot the system. Now most processor changes come with at least a motherboard change as well. The thing of it is, that the new system can still run the old code. The processors run the exact same instruction set (minus 3DNow and SSE) and can therefor run the exact same software.
I will agree though that it will take more than better technology to display Intel from its current posisition. Many companies will only buy Intel machines for thier users. Intel has done very well to build loyality with thier Intel Inside program. Dell still refuses to sell AMD parts.
What the future holds for Intel is smaller profits and a more competive market place. Something Intel is not ready to handle as of yet. They'll be taking a beating until they do.
Be was the target before Jobs became the CEO again. Then the deal was off, because NeXT was bought by Apple and it became the core of MacOS X. Be has more or less been given the finger by Apple, who are be less than helpful with getting BeOS to run on B&W G3's and G4's. It is part of the reason why Be has moved into x86. Although they now have to fight Microsoft which has locked them out of most OEM markets. It is too sad. It has a simpler interface for new users and it is closer to MacOS for those switching over. But they've been forced into the IA market, because they have no chance against 9x/NT Otherwise Be is a fine OS. Driver support is lacking, but I've never had it crash and it hasn't locked up. I've never seen anything even slow it down. The Tracker is always ready to go. I've seen X/Win32 come to a complete stop under less loads. I can't wait until there are more applications on it. The current browser Net+ was just o.k., I really want to see Mozilla on it. (I've been less than impressed with Opera so far.) As time passes, I hope to rid myself of Win32 forever and replace it with Be.
Remember the Register is not the most reliable source about anything. I serously doubt there will be no PIII's for that long. It just doesn't make any sense for anyone.
luckly we'll have two isp's....aol and AT&T...take it or leave it...it looks like that will be the only options. They both seem to be gaining a strangle hold on the market.
It will run like WinLinux. It will have a file that will be it's partition. It's silly, but it keeps people from being scared away. Be talked about this option earlier. Granted, you won't get all the benifits of BeFS, but it's a start.
It seems to be saying that because a company is not a person, then it cannot be bound by the license. That is just bull. An incorporated company is legally a person and can enter the same agreements as a individual. Laws bound companies that sign contracts or agree to licenses the same what that they bound them to the individual. If it is not incorporated, then the individual who gets the license is bound by its terms and all the individuals who work for that company. That is my 2 cents anyway.
People try to use the same arguement about speeding on K-10. Everyone goes 80-85 mph (posted is 70 mph), so no one should get a ticket. That is just bull. Posted speedlimits are there for a reason. Follow them. I've seen one too many cars sliced in half by a bridge column or another car. I've also seen too many cars flipped on their hoods.
The problem with the Revolution IV under XFree 3.3.5 is that it is not 3D accelerated. It is more or less a generic SVGA card. Only the 2D acceleration is there. OpenGL is not that and cannot be gained by Mesa for the i128. You can't run quake 3 on it at all. It is the one thing that is sad about the card. Ticket to Ride is the only thing that works with the SGI Flat Panel, so I'm stuck with it for the moment, unless someone else knows a card that supports an OpenLDI connections.
Intel used to pride its self on only announcing products that were shipping and only shipping when shipping in volume is possible. It is sad to see how much the company has fallen since it started to get real competition from AMD.
Coppermine is not new. Intel won't have a new core until Willamette (sometime, maybe if we're lucky). The Coppermine/Katmai comparisions are closer to K6-II/III. Same meal. Different garnish.
Any ISP that accepts PPP connections. So all of them except the big one AOL. Maybe DC, PSX2, and the Dolphin will finally get AOL to offer PPP service.
Yea except Fry's eventually forced them to give it up. I'm not really sure how, becuase Fry's is kind of forced to use the full Fry's Eletronics in thier adds so they don't conflict with the real Fry's which is s grocery store. (Funny thing is that they started off as the same chain and that in some places like Pheonix they sit side by side.) But it really doesn't matter since both domains sit with nothing on them. Which is kind of sad. I'd like to see the white trash thing that Fry's would put up for its website.
Too bad in a couple of months Intel will be dropping the slot ones infavor of socket 370 PIII. You're method will only really work through the Katmai generation and then your stuck getting another motherboard anyway.
If you read the GPL license all software is provided as is with no warantee or gaurentee (even that it will work to begin with). No one is liable for a system failure, since the user installs the software they are taking FULL responsbilty for what happens. The fact that someone else wrote the code is not a factor...but then again, I'm not a lawyer. It's all a matter of trust, methinks.
DOS is a rip off of CP/M while the core of NT was originally from VMS. NT was giving drive letters and a bunch of other silly stuff so it looks like DOS. Then DOS/Windows was giving a bunch of silly things to make it work like NT. So basicly NT and Dos are completely silly.
I would think that the max score would be some 2-bit number like 2,4,8,16..256..65536...etc. 3,333,360 doesn't seem to make any sense as a max score since it isn't a base2 number. Am I missing something or just crazy.
Spammers already try to get around it so defining something like that wouldn't be effective, since they would just set up there systems not to send those headers which identify the letter as spam. Sendmail is open source so someone resourceful enough would just edit the source to disable this feature. The only way to stop spam is to get the people who do send it and make it in there best intrest not to do so.
There is a difference between using and damaging a computer. NT and Windows 98 have a habit of allowing any user or program damage or change the critical DLLs, registries, INIs, etc to the system which will cause the system not to operate (or at worse a program that relied on the DLL). Unix has built in procedures to prevent this from happening. You can delete the files if you are root, but all the other users cannot. They system actually takes steps to prevent changes to glibc and the other system libraries to allow the system to function. I just hate telling people that the reason there NT and all there programs work is because they've installed some software (usually a new Microsoft program) that has either changed all the needed DLLs or damaged the registry. It happens more often than not. And it is really sad that it happens at all.

That may be the idea, but it won't stay that way for long. Remember that social security numbers were only supposed to be for getting social security benefits when you retire, but now they are tied to almost anything and everything about you. Even though this was explicitly denied in the writing of the social security legislation. Funny how things turn out. I be that if someone commits a crime and this little thing can prove the person was/wasn't at the scene, because there was a fact collected from the place it will be forced out of the database using legal means, encrypted or not. The courts have already made ISP turn over the identities of anonymous users, this is even a less radical step than that. It sounds like the users won't have the keys, but the database owners have the keys. I think it is just a really, really good system for tracking the movements/habits of people who don't know that this data can be used against them. Just wait till marketing people offer this for "free" if they can have some access to the facts you have collected. What you like to see can tell a lot about you.

It good to a least get it preinstalled, so you know all the hardware will work with the installation. It should always be redone though.

an "enhancement" to the BIOS that Microsoft recommended was immediately dismissed because it would be incompatible with Linux
Wonder why, Microsoft of all people, would suggest some that would make Linux not run, who'd of thought it.
