no, sony's i.Link is a little different -- the cable doesn't carry any power (allowing for a smaller plug on the external device) so an i.Link device is 1394 but needs a different cable and external power.
The fact that there different or not is not what I was talking about.
I find it funny that the company that has the iMac, iPOD, iTunes, iMovie, etc got beaten to iLINK by sony.
You know you can do what I did.
Take the maximum you can posibly owe write a check and file an extention.
Refile later and get some money back.
In the mean time Uncle Sam hold on to your money.
He's good for it don't worry.
The main reason that alcohol isn't taken seriously as a fule alternative is because many people make the claim that it is too expensive to produce. That's like saying the PC would never sell because it was too expensive to produce. Alcohol could benefit just as much from mass-production as any other resource. Some conjecture suggests that the natural temperature in the mid-western states would allow construction of massive solar-powered brewing facilities to produce the alcohol from waste grain, third-grade hops and organic garbage. These types of facilities should be capable of producing enough alchohol to fule the majority of the cars in the US: just from waste resources.
Is it me or did you just describe the american beer industry.
Oops I should use preview more;)
Here's my post without the typos and spelling errors. Slashaholics?
Okay this is a pet peeve of mine.
Why do people insist on adding the 'aholics' suffix to mean addiction?.
It's a substring of alcoholics.
Which is derived from alcohol.
Why not Slashdot Addicts?

Given that it throws away all legacy ports, I'd say it's pretty short in USB ports.
One ofr the keyboard. One for the mouse. One for the printer.
So, that leaves you with exactly one USB port (I'm discounting the two USB 2.0 ones).
When you throw away your old keyboard and mouse, keep around that old USB hub. You might need it.
As for the three PCI slots: Video capture card, decent sound card, SCSI ports. There goes my scalability, I guess....
Well the USB 2.0 ports are backwards compatible and the mouse can and should be chained from the keyboad so yes you have a lot of free ports.
Most keyboards have two extra ports I use one for my mouse and one for my camera.
As for the pci slots the onboard sound looks fine to me. It has optical ins for god sakes. What more do you want? It also has an onboard nic card and that saves you another slot.
I't also has two IEE 1394(firewire|ilink) ports.
This is very good. As there are 400mb a sec.
Much faster then USB. 1394 is also point to point so logically you could have a DVcam plug directly into your 1394 Harddrive drive.
Looks like I don't need a mac after all:)
They have this in Ottawa.
My dad told me about when he was a kid putting flyers on utility poles to promote his radio show.
A cop stopped him and gave him a fine.
I remember in Peterborough we had community boards where you could put up posters etc.
I still think if you have the right to post it up I have the right to tear it down though and I don't mind using it either:)
Well the difference here is books are art.

Paid for by people that have WAY more money then I'll ever have.
So fuck them, And fuck you too.
What's scary is that the first couple times I felt guilty like I was doing something wrong.
Now I realize I am right and I rip them up very dramatically first so people can see.
I haven't seen one in my area in a while I guess I scared them off. :)
I don't know about you, But every time I see these I make sure to take them all down and through them in the trash.
I figure that if it's on public property and I'm a tax payer.
I have a right to remove them if I see fit.
Now if IBM got fined for the Love Peace Linux graffiti. I wonder what these guys get.

sb1394 is IEEE1394. and, AFAIK, only sony refers to IEEE1394 as iLink.
I thought so.
Do you think sony trademarked iLINK just to pissoff apple?
Is it like (or compatible with) IEEE 1394?
AKA FireWire/iLINK.
Anyone else find it funny that the non apple version is called 'iLINK'?
How long till DSL providers start comming up with reasions to kill it.
How ironic. The DSL killing the phone service.

Hell even Sun doesn't use Sun on the workstation.
