In any Spectrum war it is esential to be the one armed with the +2 or the +3 as they can be wielded like a cricket bat and thereby cause far more damage than your opponent can if he gets stuck with a 48k.

The K5 and early K6 were not designed by AMD, they were aquired when the company bought NexGen.
They were interim solutions for the period when the K7 was being designed.

The original celerons came out when PIIs still had seperate cache. They were identical but for the lack of cache.
The second version (Celeron A) was the first of the PII line with on chip cache.
Only the most recent Celeron IIs are partially made up of defective PIIIs.
The conversion from film (24frames/s) to ntsc(60 fields/s) then to pal (50 fields/s) means there's a stutter every second on long pans.

On the subject of large software projects being worked on by lots of people:
This is an opinion shared by a huge number of developers.
Inexperienced developers.
Everyone thinks that more people working on one project can only be a good thing, that every one of those has valuable experience and insight and should therefore have input in the decision making process.
Every experienced developr out there would agree with me that this is the best way to kill a project, mire it in personal squabbles whenever someone's precious idea is thrown out in favour of another.
No amount of non-spell checked rubbish is going to make the 'mob' mthod of software development work.
Oh, I see.
So what you're saying is that the lens assembly of the projector will degrade the 3x2 image recorded onto the film until it magically becomes 16x9 ratio despite the actual ratio it is projected at being 2.35:1 (21x9).
Presumably the same mystical process happens in reverse while the images are filmed.
Do they make these lenses out of the sort of glass you get in bathroom windows then or are they constructed from pure bullshit like your post?
It kinda makes you wonder how many other projects are sitting mothballed costing the taxpayers millions every year and wasting away their scientific potential but which we never hear about because they have nothing to do with Al Gore. (Thanks for the internet Al...).
Chances are, for the cost of keeping this satellite mothballed until a launch vehicle is available and the cost of recalibrating the instruments it could be launched by another space agency (yes, apparently there are other countries outside our borders who have progressed far enough from the stone age to be capable of space launches) and be lurking about Lagrange Point 1 taking pretty pictures far earlier than the earliest possible estimate of 2004.
Damn, having never seen the name of this particular adesive product in written form I assumed it to be spelt "Duck Tape" and was designed for securing ducks whilst performing acts which would normally cause them to attempt rapid escape.

If the gaming industry is so free and liberal why don't more game charcters smoke, drink alcohol (or even exist in an environment where such are available) or have religious beliefs?
Because publishers won't allow these things. They're naughty.

I'm waiting for the first game company to try an take advantage of the Looge phenomenon.

The effective resolution is dependant on the physical film itself which is NOT 16x9 ratio.
Being a big heavy vehicle means that it will be the reason that real cars are crushed in the pileup.
