Apple/Mot tops out at 867 Mhz today (perhaps 1 Ghz in die samples). Are we supposed to believe, that the SNAIL Motorola is, his magically pulled off a Mhz DOUBLE in 6 months. After their foot-dragging for 2 years??
Seriously, as much as I'd love ths to be true, I think we're in for a longer wait that/Register/ wants us to think.
Nuclear terrorism? My soul trembles at the prospect.:(
I'm 21 years of age. This the the world I'm going to grow up into. And it's being shaken time and time again by psychopaths who doesn't give a shit about my or your or whoevers life.
If we can't do anything about the death of AppWatch, we can consider petitioning versiontracker.com for a Linux section. They already have Mac, Mac OS X, and Windows.... Linux would be a natural evolution....
Unless these guys have somewhat miraculously found a way to use the previously unknown quantum fluctuations of electrons in phone lines for data transmission/compression purposes, this is only a software issue - namely video compression.
And what compresses better than Sorenson3, DiVX and 3ivx today? None that I know of.
And none of these will deliver decent-quality FMV on a modem line.
Summa summarum: This "undisclosed tech" is bull crap!
PC? Hey, that's Apple's crown, IBM. Hand it back. Had there been no Apple II, there wouldn't have been an IBM PC, either. (The Apple II opened the eyes of the IBm exec's to what market they had been denying the existence of).
PC != Personal Computer. Try BC instead = Business Computer.
I'm a Dane. You know, some guys pretty close to Sweden and Finland. The danish government is "social democrat", but is neither especially socially minded or respectful of democratic ideals.
Denmark has the higest tax pressure in the world - a study from our ministry of tax from 1999 shows that for people living in their own house, the real taxation is 74,6%. Eat that!
I would love to move to the US, but it is a little hard to say goodbye to all you know and love (minus stupid politicians, of course).
Lastly, spare me the romantic babble about socialism having great "pros". That idealistic hogwash about equality can only be realized through force and opression, due to one simple thing:
That we humans are born different.
PS: A lot of people here are mistaking the US system - it's not capitalism (not in it's pure form) - it's liberalism.
Well, I tried it [Moz] out for some time on my Mac, but I'm back to M$ IE and Entourage now. Mozilla is way better than "old" Netscape, very stable, but it's hardware demands and general responsiveness (or lack of same) is not only a limiting factor - it's an annoyance.
In comparison, IE seems to zip along for most general tasks (not talking about raw HTML rendering here).
Mozilla might be getting more and more stable, but I'm not going to use it until it gets *faster*.
I must say, Mozilla is getting better with each release.
Even the Mac Classic version is running in a tolerable manner now - as a matter of fact, I've ditched M$ IE and Entourage, writing this from Mozilla!
I looove the Modern theme. Much nicer then Internet Exploiter.

"Just for the fun of it"?
Are you a masochist or something?
;)
...when you consider that the Linux following counts millions of users.
A drop in the ocean.
I have a Mac.
Nuff said.
So, can this be the kickoff for future urban renovation companies? Imagine an army of robots removing litter from the streets of NYC 24-7-365...
Perhaps there is a Clean Future (TM)?
Wonder if that's why one of their newer products is calles "clik"?
Come on!

Fucking great. NOT:
We do know that Linux came from Xenix...
The Xbox isn't even out yet and already it's successor has been named.
MS vapor deluxe.
Two strawberries are sitting in a bathtub.
The first says: "Hey, pass me the shampoo".
The second answers: "What, Do you think I'm a typewriter?!"
