Oh, I believe you - haven't heard them yet though. I always like the various ways people describe things - "crunchy electric cello" just caught my eye:) --
Ah, just a standard Mad-Libs sort of thing - can't really describe it, let's just pull out the Adjective-O-Matic(TM):) Crunchy just makes me think of really bad static or NIN... maybe that's accurate, though. --
Actually, since Jack holds the record for tour wins before the age of 30, and Tiger should break that before he hits 26... it puts things in a litlte perspective. Tiger does have quite a ways to go for the total majors and tour events won, but having won the last four consecutive majors, he's made quite a name for himself.
Actually, that's less than the cost of two employees. If you figure out the cost of an employee to a company, salary ends up being only one part of it (benefits, facilities costs, support, etc.). Even if the average salary for an employee is $75k/yr, the yearly cost for an average employee may well be $110-130k/yr. --
I think they may have something here with the magnetic ideas - why, just a couple years ago I was having trouble with my knee. The doctor scheduled a MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging), and a few days later, most of the pain in my knee was gone! Those magnets must have great healing properties - either that or those codeine-based pills had some effect;-)
It seems to be market specific. It seems that in some areas, cable modems and DSL modems can be had at the local $BIG_COMP_STORE, but in others, they are strictly handed out by the service provider. --
No, no - your PC is a desktop PC, this will be a table PC - a dramatic paradigm shift. Kind of like the world changing transition from laptop computers to notebook computers. Whew! --
It would seem that one would prefer the AGP Pro 110W power to not be sucking off of the main power for the CPUs/memory, etc... That explains away a few lines. Easier power routing and regulation for some areas. That would seem to be the greatest separate need. --
Most likely one wouldn't need a WTX case if the board doesn't support AGP Pro 110 (an extra 110W for the video card is more than consumer cards normally worry about)...
That's right - extended binary coded decimal interchange code is your ticket to imformation safety! just atoe(message) and your e-mail is safe from prying eyes. And all it takes is a snazzy etoa(message) for the recipient and, POW! Safe e-mail.

Etymology: New Latin, from alumina

: a bluish silver-white malleable ductile light trivalent metallic element that has good electrical and thermal conductivity, high reflectivity, and resistance to oxidation and is the most abundant metal in the earth's crust where it always occurs in combination
Oxford:
aluminium n. (US aluminum) a silvery light and malleable metallic element resistant to tarnishing by air. Symb.: Al. aluminium bronze an alloy of copper and aluminium. [aluminium, alt. (after sodium etc.) f. aluminum, earlier alumium f. ALUM + -IUM]
So the spelling of Al depends on the spelling of color(colour) and theater(theatre)... --
Well, the crud that is sold in Dominos, Pizza Hut, Papa Johns and other places (Uno) is an American invention, since none of those remotely resemble Real Pizza(tm). Anyone who knows pizza knows that Ray's is the Only True Pizaa (all hail). And knowing this, I move to pizza hell (Minnesota), where people think Papa Johns is gourmet...
That and the lack of good Wings this far west is incredibly dissapointing...
MS also brought you 'Bob'(tm) and 'Windows'(tm)(c)(r)(sm)(ayb), as well as 'Start'(tm). Though I'm sure none of those words are nearly as common in everyday usage as McDonald's 'Smile'(tm)...
Hmmm... your post reminded me of my first thought when I read the summary:
"reminding the world that short-sighted paths to power can lead to a big pile of problems" (emphasis mine) --
Several hundred words per minute, more likely... I read quicker than most, yet it still takes me more than a couple seconds for a page of a Michner novel... --
Yeah, the Suburban, Excursion, Ecscalade, etc are all "large" problems for little cars... my Jetta and I nearly got run over by one of those Escalades (driven by a cell-phone-talkin soccer-mom in a grocery parking lot... I think the bumper on that vehicle was about at my head level. --
Hehe, and I'm in Minnesota... every time I head back to the homeland (East Coast), I'm amazed at how much more in shape (and stressed out) everyone is... --

How hard could it possibly be? Jeff Goldblum did it in ID4 with only an Apple Netwon and some cut up soda cans...

Funny, it's always looked like more of a backwards 's' with a backslash to me, but hey, whatever floats your boat.

Most of my noise is from my 10krpm drives... the CPU fans are nearly inaudible. The drives and their cooling are the much greater part.

It all depends on where you are...
