Author and Editor's Note: Networking was never supposed to be hard -- but it is. At best it's an annoyance, at worst it's a show stopper. Granny May's got her new printer and after hooking it up, she just can't get it to print across the network, damnit. But an emerging standard, Zeroconf, just might help networking become what we've always wanted it to be: easy.
BTW, as a network professional you surely know the difference between broadcasting and multicasting? What are your thoughts on DHCP? What does "Job Protection" mean to you?
Nope, they lost the case against Microsoft because they previosly allowed MS to use the look-and-feel. The judge decided that this not only covered apps written for the Mac ("We can't write an app for the Mac if you don't allow us to use your look-and-feel") but also anything else ("... so we can then use it for our cheap knock-off").
Well, moron, it was the G4 that was a "SuperComputer". At least it fell under the export restrictions for supercomputers of the time. Not those of 1980 but of 1999.
Well, there are those who claim that the Opteron was available long before the G5, and there are those who claim that Virginia Tech would have chosen the Opteron if it had been available in numbers (say a thousand). Both groups however claim that Apple Fanatics are much more unreasonable than AMD supporters.
Apple's SPEC scores for the DELLs were just as valid as the ones DELL gave, they just used a different compiler than DELL. The claim was true that using the same compiler on both computers the G5 was faster. DELL with it.
Instead we have two guys botching together a programming language, and over 20 years of many thousands of people trying to form that "standard" into something remotely making sense. Unsigned Char my ass.
Complete keyboard navigation and control
To drive the spoken interface, you'll use the keyboard instead of the mouse. You can choose any combination of keyboard commands and shortcuts you prefer and can even take advantage of Apple's full keyboard access option. Full keyboard access extends your ability to navigate to items such as the Dock, menu bar, window tool bars, and palettes. The spoken interface can also be directed using a new feature called the viewfinder, a powerful tool that lets you control what is spoken, and enables you to interact with items on the screen using only your keyboard. You can press buttons, drag sliders, enable and disable check boxes, select radio buttons, drag, scroll bars, and many other on-screen controls.

Maybe there is still hope for this world, and most of those people reject because it is made by Apple, not because it is new;-)
Well, "In the case of these programs on vinyl, the user would have to play back the proper portion of the record, record the resultant chatter to tape, and load the tape into the Spectrum." - Nope, wouldn't work if you taped the whole record;-)
Slashdot Mirror
Apple's Pro Machines come with GBit-Ethernet for quite some time now, both PowerMacs and PowerBooks since the second revision of G4s.
Or how in most FPS you could fall dozens of feet and land without any damage, but can't climb a ledge that barely reaches to your breast.
One word: Buckyballs.
It is obvious that you would rather die of brain-damage than to live with it.
What about this?

Not really. The Tungsten cluster at #4 used 1450 (1280 compute nodes) DELLs.
Yes, you could use an upgrade.
Well, moron, it was the G4 that was a "SuperComputer". At least it fell under the export restrictions for supercomputers of the time. Not those of 1980 but of 1999.
You are right, gcc has been optimized for x86 performance for years.

Slashdot story.
There are lies, there are ads, and there is the page you cite. Disproven many times over.
Yeah, they sold them at the regular Edu-discount - a normal person won't get that.

Why, they don't even sell the iPod Mini in Europe.
The sad thing is that you probably do believe this is a screen reader (and not something that comes with MacOS for over 10 years).

Is this why the quality of "DELL" laptops has gone down, because they now design them in house?

based on Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of WotW. Or they could base it on the computer game based on that.
How? Okay, with better acting - but the FX were top-notch for the time (it did win the Oscar for FX).
