Yeah, too bad the internet is in a constant shit storm. And the fact that many thousands of cars with shit on their windshields drive around doesn't help things either - neither for those who have a full load of top-qulity screenwash nor those whose cars are immune to that kind of shit. An AV app that can't catch the virus/worm dujour will get you infected.
Exactly. Lots of computers running mydoom have a working anti-virus, its just that the owners won't pay for updates or they have no clue what an update is or why it would expire.
"Your car isn't working." "Yes it is, just the wheels are missing". Sorry, I don't consider an AV app working that only catches viruses older than a week, no matter why this is so.
Which brings us to the fact that the patent also covers the special case of SMP, but is mostly about a single processor with "a variable speed system clock having an output coupled to said processing unit".
Maybe you should use a Mac for once. No double-clicking to rename a file in MacOS, neither Classic nor X. And I can't remember a single time I accidently triggered a rename in over ten years of using a Mac - but then the Mac always had decent mouse precision.
"Right-click is for shortcuts but should never be the sole way of getting to a function."
Too many years using a one-button mouse....
Yeah, long live the elitist "there shall only be one way to do things" paradigm. Oooh, I feel so restrained by only one mouse button, because it keeps me from doing things only one way like g0D intended it.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but to me this sounds like Windows supports hardware accelerated DVD playback, while Linux doesn't - and that you claim this is actually a user friendly feature.
Furthermore I don't see where Intel or their clients could be violating it except for the speed throttling overheat protection in the P4 and family processors.
Err, how about speed throttling to use less power (in notebook processors), a la Speedstep and successors?
Would have, could have. Most Fast Food packaging lands in nature, where a slowly decaying paper container decays much faster than one made of styrofoam. And the rest doesn't get recycled either, not only because it's much cheaper to just throw on a landfill, but because it is soiled with grease and food-like substances.
Cut CO2 output? Sounds good but even though CO2 is the most common greenhouse gas, it's also one of the weakest. Lower levels of CO2 could also be problems for the plant biosphere being the CO2 breathing, carbon fixers that they are.
The plants got by just fine without us raising CO2 levels -that is before we cut down or burned a seizable amount of it.

Yeah, and as soon as you initiate a download, you are responsible for the distribution of that information to you.

I can see it coming, the GarageBang pr0n series with music made in GarageBand.
Well, if adding stuff to the PC makes it cheaper...
"Please send attachment to all Windows users in yuor addressbook. Thank you."
It was a R-16 (aka SS-7) balistic missile that blew up, and it had nothing to do with a mission to Mars (read the postscript).
Just like many, many astronauts died in accidents.

So who pays the hackers that attack SCO and Microsoft?
You make it sound like a bad thing - it can't get much worse. Instead of corporations, the best hackers would decide who runs America.

And the magic words are: "not that old". Try again on 20 PCs a little older.

Which one is Andy and which is Woz?

Sure, it was ignorant environmentalism, not greediness on part of the company making the "cheap, environmentaly friendly" flame retardant.

"Funny shaped rocks" don't cause forrest fires.
I'm pretty sure that parts in an internal defibrillator won't use a flame retardant.
Yeah, it's much better when the cost of a destroyed environment is directly paid by the tax-payers, and the greedy corporations can't profit from it.

Says one planet to the other: "Shit, I've got Humans!" Says the other: "Don't worry, it'll go away on it's own."
