Last week, I tried to register andover.net when it expired, as the boys at VA/andover didn't bother to renew it. NSI wouldn't let me! I was going to give it back to VA, just after I have my fun.
4.1.4. The Company's "unlimited traffic" and "storage" offer is to provide the Company's customers with storage space and bandwidth for active Web pages and cannot be used as a "storage space" for electronic files. An example of sites that fall under "electronic storage" are large archives of images, compressed files, movies, or sound files. The Company permits up to 15 megabytes of archive storage, e.g. avi or wav files, images, compressed files, shareware, games, programs, etc.. All HTML pages MUST be linked to files (HTML,.jpg,.gif, etc.) stored on Company's server and vice versa.
Accoring to this, you can't link to any pages or graphics stored on other servers. That's kind of silly.
It's about bandwidth. The following is from HalfPrice Hosting's Terms of service:
4. Bandwidth & Utilization
In addition to the other terms of this agreement, which apply to all plans, bandwidth and utilization, by its nature, is subject to a number of differing and/or additional terms.
4.1 The Company provides the unlimited space and unlimited transfer in good faith to our Customers so that they may create their Websites without the fear of running over their Web space or Web traffic allocation. While most Customers will use the extra Web space and traffic for their legitimate Web site needs, we recognize that others may try to take advantage of our offer and use the space and traffic in ways for which it is not intended. In the best interests of our Customers and in an effort to maintain the integrity of our service, the following common sense rules will apply:

4.1.5. The storage and distribution of MP3 format files via the Company network is prohibited.
What they are worried about is their hardware and their connection.
While 8 cards were reviewed, Sharky only reviewed 5 different cards. The four GeForce2 MXs seem to differ only slightly from reference boards. At least he didn't have the NVIDIA cards in all of the top spots like he did with his high-end 3d card roundup a few weeks ago.
Remember the last time Hemos posted an article from Sharky Extreme? He did it right this time, now we don't have to wade through hundreds of "700 MHz isn't low-end" posts. I suppose though, there's going to be a bunch of "$150 isn't cheap" posts now.
The PS/2 model 25 was, at first, an 8086. The model 30 was also an 8086. Later, IBM released 286 versions of both. The PS/2 line went up to the model 95, which could be equipped with up to a P90, although several people have gotten a P180 to work. These were some nice machines, and a lot of fun to play with. Once, a friend of mine and I figured out how to modify a normal video card to make it work with the model 25. Once that was done, squeezed a 486 motherboard into it and booted Windows 3.1. It was really cool.
I am amazed at the number of "700 MHz isn't low end" posts. If you would have taken the time to read the article, you would know that it was on "Value" Systems, not "Low-End" Systems.

Do these patents cover lossless compression as well?
WMA does this too, right?
But then there was this:

I still use a 386 with 8 MB of RAM, and I want to get more fps in nethack.

According to their terms of service, their problem with mp3s is bandwidth, nothing more.
George Bush Jr. is a Domain squatter! Someone send WIPO after him!
Didn't you learn anything from the last George Bush? Remember "Read my lips..."?

When I saw that, I thought, "Enlightenment? How much RAM does he have in there? Somebody ought to switch him over to Sawmill."
If it was LiteStep, we would see a BSOD.

Yeah, and then you would blow on the connectors on the cartridge. Imagine how much spit got in there...
If a cell phone can display CSS, why can't my PC? Let's get our priorities straight.
I just hope I never see a "Penis Bird Guy" skin.
This looks like a for Jailbait Linux, the distribution that became popular as something that would install on the Netpliance I-Opener's 16MB ROM.
I have a teacher that always says that pi is approximately equal to 3.14, and if you need more digits, use a calculator.
On second thought, this might still work.
This article is almost 2 months old. AMD just made the method shown here impossible.
I still think that this sounds like the name of an old AC/DC song.
I only said that Perl runs on Linux.
