But seriously, the degree you get does NOT guarantee what you'll be doing...one of my profs has a CS degree but was a SE for Xerox...people get degrees in one field and go and do something related or even completly different anyway.
Also the school doesnt make a HUGE amount of difference, obviously if its from MIT or such it will be hugely valued. But I go to RIT (how many of you have even heard of that place) and graduates are very much in demand as well.
can't have multiple PCI-E cards without a special board. which is why I hate PCI-E standards...no ones going to allow more than 2 cards, if even. 16x slots are rare.
I work at the company that actually produces and writes the test (ETS) and there hasnt been a big hoopla about it...yet. I guess well have to see if everyone complely screwed it up or not.
On a related note,its a shame that its java. Java: the most useless language ever.
All computer companies inflate stats. Hell, ALL companies inflate stats (7 out of 10 doctors...95% success rate...etc). It's the game of Capitalism, and the winner takes all....
But yeh, nVidia did cheating and ATi did optimization. That being said, I have 3x more nVidia cards than ATi cards...because they were cheaper for faster. I only get ATi when I build computers for others however. GO CANANDA!
Esp the end where it put Linux users in their place. Great OS and all, I'm sure, but don't tout it like it's indestructible and will never be corrupted.
I saw this coming a mile away. Intel was being stubborn support RDRAM, but now that Rambus is a sinking ship, Intel is bailin' out!
On a related note, PC2100 still will make a P4 pale to a T-bird

Not everyone is simple enough to be amused by MMORPGs...we lose nothing. Have fun with your lack of a real life.
