Run, don't walk, to your nearest computer store and ask them to get Mni-ITX style motherboards for you. Via makes a few of them. Check out viavpsd.com, its whats in this little box.
Your bang on right here. Use the right tools. The disposible cameras are just about the right tool, the more correct one is just sitting under your nose.
Lets say for argument sake that you have 30 contractors who can be on various sites in your area. And then lets say there will be 2 incidents a year that need to be documented. And at the same time we'll guess that 5 cameras get damaged through out the year.
Disposible cameras are around $15 in my neck of the woods, so (30+2+5) * 15 = $555 each year. In this case the cameras get replaced once a year cause the film goes bad too. So add another $555 for next year and every year after that.
Now if you went with a cheap point and click camera with replacable film. A cheap ass Vivitar is $20 in my neck of the woods and film is $4. So first year costs would be (30+5) * $20 = $700 and (30+2+5) * $3 = $185. $885 total cost the first year. A little more expensive. But each year after that will be much cheaper. $185 for film and $100 for the 5 damaged cameras.
After the second year your costs are now sitting 50% or less. Even if you found some type of cheap assed digital camera for under $100 you'll be spending more money replacing damaged cameras.
Well that's the point. Here in Australia it is not illegal, but as we have no idea what laws these three are being charged under we can't make an informed protest.
Maybe you can explain Aussi law to the rest of us on the other side of the big pond. What part is not illegal? Is copyright different over there?
From the articals that i read, these students had a big website with links to many mp3s, wmas, and music videos. They were giving away copyrighted material as far as i know. And they got caught. Sure they are not the biggest fish out there, but they were the slowest fish.
I don't know if you'll feel any better after this but his calculation is done with a UK Gallon to boot. You see 1 hogshead is equal to 63gal(UK) which is ~75.659gal(US).
So in fact, if you were to keep the same types of units (imperial) you'll come up with ~0.001652 miles/gal(US) or ~605gal(us) per mile.
The top end range boards (933mhz) just barely have the grunt to decode a DVD. If you want to play medium resolution MPEG-4 files then you'll have to pick and choose the better CPU combination. Other type media (mp3, ogg,etc) is fine.
The linux compatibility is there.
The case is meant for the new Via boards that require a fan hetsink combination. At least it gives you an idea of how a case might be invisioned. You asked, i gave. Sure a heatpipe solution isn't the best for a 3.0Ghz P4, but it might be just fine for a slower celeron.
Actually i know of one right now. Hush Technologies This case is designed for the Via ITX style motherboards, at least its a start. Myself i'm looking forward to getting one.
The typical stereotype was broken long ago. I'm pretty sure it was long before i noticed it.
Back when Ultima Online first came out, i noticed that the stereo type didn't apply anymore. When I played we quickly had a group of 20 or so people who played together all the time. We ranged from an 11year old and his father to an 79 year old retired fellow. And just about everything in between. And to top it all off we even had a marriage in the group who met in the game.
sure it sucked you in, but then again, what hobby doesn't?
We use email to communicate with many of our clients, and many of them use AOL. Now when they try to email us it's going to bounce? This is going to make us look bad. It's going to interfere with business.
The mail that your AOL using clients won't bounce unless you want it to. But the mail that you send them has the possibility of bouncing. Try it and find out.
Carmack follows the Direct-X API to make sure he doesn't do any stupid-bone-headed mistakes. I'm sure he keeps in mind that they will be doing ports to all the different platforms eventually.
Further, the game is already going to run in a Windows environment, doubtlessly. This means that XBox will be the easiest to port to, both because of a minimal amount of code rewrite being necessary and because the mostly stock hardware means that not as much XBox specific testing would be necessary.
Hmm, OpenGL to DirectX. Still sounds like a major undertaking to me.
The Channel crossing tunnel is consited of 3 tunnels at 21 billion total cost. The tunnls are approx 31 Miles long as well. So that is approx 225 million per mile. Lets take a guess at a tunnel under the atlantic ocean would be somehere near 2800 miles. give or take alot... That will put us somewhere near 2.2 trillian dollars and it will still take 14hours travelling at 200 Miles per hour. And thats just one tunnel to boot. Gonna need at least 3, one each way and one service tunnel.
Got an extra 6.6 trillion kicking around burning a whole in your pocket?
Mini-ITX is just too small of a form factor for what you want. Two PCI slots and an AGP would take up half the motherboard. Not leaving enough room for everything to work. MicroATX is the board form factor you are looking for.
Well, you see... first they lost it in some developers couch at home along with the rest of his change. Then while they were looking for it, it got sucked up by some vacume cleaner and now its gone.

But then i realized he is playing a piano. Not quite what i was looking for, but still, its good none the less.
Damn, an OpenGL driver for the Xbox, Good one!

Yes, Windows and Quick Time is known to be a little slow... Time to upgrade to that P4 3.0Ghz
