  1. Not entirely a new idea on The Open Source Business? · · Score: 2, Informative

    Read "Ecotopia" by Ernest Callenbach. Carefully. Ignore the insipid embedded love story and concentrate on the socio-political ideas presented in the book. When you're done with it, go back and read it again. Then think of a world where all businesses are employee-owned.

  2. Re:OS Support? on AMD / Intel Hybrid Motherboard · · Score: 3, Informative

    Well, that's just it. It's *one* chipset, with multiple *processor* support. It should actually make OS support easier.

  3. Holy pasta, Batman! on Four Millennia Old Noodles Found In China · · Score: 1

    " the world's oldest noodles have been found at the Lajia site in China. Carbon Dating has found the remains to be over 4000 years old."

    Bet they're crunchy....

  4. Re:Will it contain the complete documentation on.. on Stanford Accelerator Uncovers Archimedes' Text · · Score: 3, Informative

    Perhaps not, but there's an excellent chance it will reveal more of what little we now know of his anticipation of Integral Calculus by 1,000 years. For the Physics and Mathematics communities, this is *huge*.

  5. Re:Sad that he died. Good thing he reincarnated on Stanford Accelerator Uncovers Archimedes' Text · · Score: 1

    Riiiiiight. And chickens have lips.

  6. Re:wouldn't SCO suing Novell on SCO SCO SCO! · · Score: 1

    Prediction: Novell will counter-sue SCO for Breach of Contract, and Novell will win, as the agreement when SCO bought Novell stated quite explicitly that Novell retained *all* rights to Unix (TM) source code.

    My oh my, we're having some fun now....

  7. Re:Duh on Game of Life in Postscript · · Score: 5, Interesting

    True. In fatc, it's a stack-oriented programming language (like Forth). When Apple released the original LaserWriter in the mid-80s, it was actually the most powerful *computer* they made at the time (next in line was the Mac Plus -- remember those?).
