... that there's only one "distribution" of FreeBSD compared to a lot for Linux (RH, SUSE, etc), also FreeBSD is a BSD standard, program written following the BSD rules always compiled fine under FreeBSD. Some years ago i remember at university we installed a network of FreeBSD to have a standard, and also because we could find tons of books about BSD standard and nothing about linux (not true today:o). Anyway i used a lot HPUX from 8 to 10 and it's a mix about all standard... what i regret also about linux is that linux users sometimes are "LiNuX-is-better-than-your-fucking-OS-so-you-are-a -morron":-( let's live in a free os community:o) i don't want to start a war between FreeBSD and Linux, use what you prefer! you?

we have all this in France already, for years! Canal + offers a lot of canals via satellite (there's not a lot of cable in France) in numeric 16/9, France 2 also have a FranceVision numeric 16/9 hdtv for years... the olympic games of Atlanta was the first events on FranceVision IIRC. --
why 32 bits? it depends on the compiler and especially the library... nothing to do with hardware architecture... if you only use time functions in the library to manipulate your time variable then you are safe, if you do arithmetic on it and the time_t is not an integer you're making bad things:o) anyway 32 bits or not, if someone want to put a double or a char structure or whatever in the library for the time_t and you ONLY use time function from this library it'll work! --

sure, take a pcchips M750 mobo (www.pcchips.com.tw) and 2 celeries 300A o/c to 450, that's all, less than 300$, and on the mobo you have a i740 with 8Mb AGP video, and a 3dsound onboard also, what do you want more?!? for dual celeries working there's lot of place to find info, either on SEC or PPGA adaptor.
