Apple publicly stated that Sorenson was free to license a Linux player.
A Linux Quicktime player, not a Linux (or other) non-Quicktime player. Actually, since Flash MXalso is Mac/Windows-only, Sorenson still doesn't support Linux. Hello?
Don't compare SCSI to today's IDE/ATA, but to the one of the mid-80s. One drive per controler, endless joy with configuration of disk-parameters in BIOS etc.
But human chess players also learn openings and endings and typical situations and startegies created by others. Most of the better players don't have to "think" what would happen next, they simply know. However, they still have to decide on a move leading to a situation they think they can handle better than their oponent.
Last but not least, in major turnaments the games usually last two days, and in the night between the players ask their staff for strategic aid.
But to prevent the unfair treatment of intelligent computers by prjudiced testers (who could simply vote "not intelligent" on all tests), there would have to be a small chance that the tested is actually humn - and if you can't tell...
Yes, there were several organizations in the US (and almost everywhere around the world) that were screaming for US intervention in Afghanistan, but the US Government didn't give a shit, because they still had hopes they could do business with the Taliban.
Actually, you tollerated the Taliban until they wouldn't let you build a pipeline through Afghanistan, the fact that they decided to protect their guests was just a nice reason to give to the press.
Again a word of warning: the Intel compilers can yield incorrect programs, if the more agressive optimizations (inter procedural optimization / -ipo) are used. At least this was the case for Version 5.5 (article in German).
It's mostly that these animals are not eaten because they are rare, but because they are tasty (or supposedly have healing or "up-lifting" powers). They usualy are close to extinction because they are sought after.
Well, actually you are not, but that shouldn't keep you from trying. 2nd example of using AltiVec: FP vector multiply-add instruction - a no-show on SSE(2) and 3DNow!. 3rd example: relies on the fact that x[i] and y[i] vectors stay the same - which they don't on the x86 SIMD extensions. So in those examples we already have some of the differences between AltiVec and the lesser SIMDs, others are more registers and better instructions for shuffeling data. IOW again MHz isn't everything - as shown by e.g. dnet rc5 scores.
I'm not an expert, but when a security update replaces a module, maybe there is a reason for it, and simply puting back an older version (even with more features) may not be wise.

But Flash MX (the one with the Sorenson-Codec) isn't. Must be Apple's fault.
Do you really need an answer?

According to some intelectual property oponents, people only buy books because of the book, not because of the content.

At least the white ones have more floppys ;-)
First black computer? Not by a long shot. At least the Sinclair ZX81 and QL (in case you dismiss the 81 for having white keys ;) came before the NeXT.
If you look more closely, you will see Macs being faster at some things than PCs. That, and they don't run Windoze.
Could be worse, could be morons like you.
Just one example: In 1989: Total CO2 Emissions from Illinois cement production was 1,345,950 tons[short tons]. The Space Shuttle can transport a max. of 29 (metric) tons into orbit. I guess you can all calculate how many starts it would need to ship all this CO2 to Mars. (AFAIK to terraform Mars we'd need much more CO2 than that anyways).
Maybe we can come back to that plan when we can beam CO2 to Mars ;-)
the Formac Studio DV/TV(R) would be the better solution?
But Psychohistory is about 50 years old. So was this work inspired by Asimov?
No, the problem is that everyone thinks they know the outcome - but the simple models are actually better than "common knowledge".

Sorry, but I have life.
I could reply to your posting in detail, but I'm just gonna say: crawl up and live a long, miserable life.

This is a first: Apple products must suck because they are too cheap.

Esp. when compared to Artur Fischer, who has 1042 inventions to his credit and 5700 patents worldwide.
