  2. Re:..The good and the bad on The Google Effect And Domain Name Speculation · · Score: 2

    Ooops, my bad. I put that wrong. A) the domains do infact exist, and B) I missread the page that comes up as "We want to sell these (pre-registered) domains to you" at first glance. They do infact want to sell me car registrations and fancy number plates. Still, no bicycles in sight.

  3. Re:Your whois client needs fixing on The Google Effect And Domain Name Speculation · · Score: 2

    Why don't you go to the friggin site? You will not find any bikes there. Yes, they are registered, but both go to a newreg.com page - they want to sell you car registrations and UK number plates. Somhow doing a Google search still sounds loke a good idea.

  4. Re:I love my Commodore 64! on CompactFlash / IDE Interface for Apple II · · Score: 2

    Time to build Virtual Memory into ProDOS. Ohh, and the drives are faster than the original RAM.

  5. Re:..The good and the bad on The Google Effect And Domain Name Speculation · · Score: 2

    Funny thing is, both bike.co.uk and bikes.co.uk are not yet taken. So much for the "obvious" name for an online bicycle shop in the UK.

  6. Re:Of course corporations are doing that on Scientific American On Bad Patents · · Score: 2

    Well, 10 years ago you could have coated all parts of an engine with a diamond layer, but that would have required to put them into a vacuum chamber for days, only recently it has become easier.

  7. Re:Beatrice? on More on Future X-Box Capabilities · · Score: 2

    More or less computer-related. 2 years ago they tried to buy the cable network of Deutsche Telekom (IOW almost all cable in Germany). They did buy larger shares of Telcos, a cell phone manufacturer, and are "involved" with NBC. Just wait till you see MS Online Laundry Service, MS Online Car Rental Service and MS Online Soft Drink Service.

  8. Re: Beatrice on More on Future X-Box Capabilities · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Well, before MS attacked Netscape, who owned Netscape? Ooops.

    Bwahahahaha! You're so l33t.

    So if I, the "inexperienced hobby coder", change kernel code, fuck up, damage my machine, Linus will pay the bill? Or will he just say "Why the hell did you do this?"

    Slashdot: News for l33t Linutix haxors.

  10. Re:I believe this misses the point ... on Steve Jobs And The Oh-So-Cool iMac · · Score: 2

    Custom tailored bullshit. Most consumers just go into the shop and buy whatever box has the highest numbers and the lowest price.

  11. Re:Ease of Use on Steve Jobs And The Oh-So-Cool iMac · · Score: 2
    I know that microsoft probabley realeases more updates and patches and security fixs then anyone else but its not a mandatory update.
    As can be seen by this whole Nimda/Sircam mess.

    Actually, they have $4.3B in the bank.

    From the Linux source:
    This is the Kernel source code. If you are an inexperienced hobby coder, please feel right at home and change anything you like.
    Well, I sure hope I'm wrong.

    The IBM Netvista x40 weighs 22 lb.

  16. Re:Like Macs or not, this is a great quote: on Interview With iMac designer, Jonathan Ive · · Score: 2

    Read Robert X. Cringely's lates column on why (at least) Steve Jobs might not care if it doesn't sell like hotcakes.

  17. Re:Kudos on keeping it secret! on Interview With iMac designer, Jonathan Ive · · Score: 2

    The secret wasn't "an iMac with LCD".

    ... where it's easy to get disk in. [twenty seconds, a head bumped on the table twice and a near slip of the disc later] There, its in. I'm glad I didn't have the drive in front of me, else I would get no exercise at all.

  19. Re:Even taking into account PR ratings, it's slow. on Interview With iMac designer, Jonathan Ive · · Score: 2

    The internal RAM is running at 133 MHz (see the service manual refered to in this thread).

  20. Re:Too bad it can't get cheaper right now on Rio Riot and Lyra Personal Jukebox · · Score: 2

    Tell me how to fit a 2.5" HD into the iPod, that is only 2.43" wide? Could you at least check the most basic information before you post?

  21. Benchmarks for the new processors on P4 2.2GHz and D845BG Review · · Score: 2
    In its latest issue the German magazin c't tests the new P4s and Athlons. There is a teaser (in German), and the SPEC Benchmark results online.

    BTW, the new "Prestonia" Xeons implement "Hyper-Threading" (a form of SMT), and report to have two logical processors.

  23. "It looks to me like an iPod killer" on Rio Riot and Lyra Personal Jukebox · · Score: 5, Funny

    Yeah, it looks big and heavy, it can probably destroy an iPod with one blow.

    Oh, is this so? Then why did they sell a Unix when Linus was still playing with Minix?
