Might I point out that this is what most of those website "communities" (Geocities, Xoom, Angelfire, AOL, and others I can't think of) have been doing for a long time.
But at least its not a "Pentium" which we swear, has nothing to do with 5.
Except for the fact that the Pentium was Intel's fifth major x86 processor. Here's the line: 8086/8088, 80286, 80386, 80486, Pentium (80501 and 80502).
There was indeed an 80186, but it didn't make it into many computers at all and didn't really contain any earthshaking technology. Years ago, it was used on add-on cards that needed lots of processing power. So technically, the Pentium was Intel's sixth x86, but it was their fifth significant one, as far as most people were concerned.
It's a veritable treasure trove. Of course, the stuff you bring home can really start to pile up! Then it's time to take it back and sell it to someone else.
Someone already did this with CD-Rs. They set up a stripe set on a bunch of CD-Rs to speed up access by putting all the CDs into a CD-ROM tower and accessing all of them at once by mounting all the CDs as a RAID volume. I wish I could find, the link, but I lost it. Try Google-ing for "CD RAID Linux"
Huh? NVidia says they worked with VA Linux and SGI. Why would either want to screw the Linux community by denying source access? After all, NVidia designed the chips. Please enlighten me.
I really doubt there is. Why would there be? If systems are designed to be Class B compliant with the lid on, that's good enough. People shouldn't expect a device to function as specified if they don't use it as intended.
BTW, how does running systems without a lid make magazine reviewers better? Or power users? A properly designed (take IBM's PS/2 line) PC case must have the lid in place in order for air to flow correctly through the system to keep everything cool. Without a lid, the flow is changed an the intake/exhaust fans can't operate properly.
For the $160 price offered on Pricewatch, that is. $260 is certainly a rip off for a computer that has no CPU, RAM, or HR. If I needed something like this, $160 is a fair price.
No mention of Linux, huh?

It says 32MB on the box, but I've only used it on systems with 80MB and 128MB. (The 80MB system was a P133, actually, and it runs as well on that as on my P200).
Well, from my point of view, the problem isn't the added cost of taxes, it's the principle of letting the government take way too much of my hard-earned money.
And how does anyone think that gun control laws are really going to affect the black market? Criminals don't care about laws. The only thing gun control laws will do is prevent law-abiding citizens from defending themselves.
>BeOS has the VERY COOL capability of executing a program from your other OS that launches you into a BeOfs img file in your hard drive, so you never actually need to make another partition for it.
There's no "h" in Gloucester. I don't believe the company got shut down (the argument against them was that is was illegal to store slot machines in Mass., even though they were actually being used offshore). I'm not sure, but the company may not be coming back due to lack of business.

Found the link on Google: http://www.crosswinds.net/~technos/cd rom.html. Although the how-to deals with RAID-0 , you could probably do RAID-5 if you were feeling ambitious enough...

2. It's now shipping with RieserFS.
You missed a little detail: their driver is a kernel module. Binary-only modules are apparently legal.

It's also rather hard to hit a luser over the head with a PDF. A ten-meg file isn't anywhere near as heavy as a 700 page book!
Gee, that sounds a lot like grep! I wonder how the MS engineers ever came up with the idea!

FWIW, wine's VSS is usually about 56MB.
As far as I can tell, the Rio (PMP300, anyway) doesn't care what MP3s you play on it.

Even if a CPU could explode, I doubt there would be enough force for the pieces to rip through a sheet-metal (or even plastic) case.
Cornerstone (www.bigmonitors.com) - they make some rather nice high-end units.
No, they definetly need the 4004. Might be tough to find one though ;)
Reminds me of loadlin...

They are also the ones (indirectly) responsible for the term 'spam' beimg applied to junk email.
It'ss a bad idea none the less. Although it doesn't guarantee it, more low-level stuff certainly increases the chances for problems.
You are joking, right? This is what made NT4 so ridiculously unstable (3.51 wasn't too bad when the graphics stuff wasn't in the kernel)
