In a way it is a conspiracy. NewsForge [newsforge.com] exists in large part because of advertiser demand for a "serious" Linux and Open Source news site that would appeal to people who have the power to sign purchase orders, combined with endless reader email asking us to turn Slashdot into more of a news site.
There has to be a better way to make money than subscritions.. I'm going to subscribe, but it does not feel right. The readers submits stories and so on. Is/. ment to be profitable or nonprofit?
Maybe you could start selling info about your reads to companies targeting us? I'm sure most of us would participate in different questionares etc.
But everyone at OSDN *likes* Slashdot in all its anarchic glory. I've liked it longer than 99% of all current Slashdot users (note my UID), and I don't ever want to see its content change because of corporate pressure.
BTW, do you reckon I could sell my/. uid at eBay? hehe
Speaking of old days, which one of you guys visited The Gathering in Norway in 99? You should come and promote your site more often;-)
I agree that maybe the RAM manufactors are speculating in the new windows realease, and that the price probebly won't go down again before, say, late january...
But i don't think it'll last for long thou, because soon the new ram technology's will make the manufactors massproduce those chips and PC-100 and PC-133 will end up as EDO ram did... that's pretty expensive these days... At least in Norway..:|
Other reasons for the prices to raise is, rumors, the new Windows realease witch will eat ram and the fact that it's lots of peoples will buy computers for Xmas.

It's not a fork in the kernel tree. Crusoe only 'emulates' x86..
It is no Mobil Linux it's just some patches for the kernel, made by Transmeta.
They will be released 'soon'..
