Isn't it ironic that IBM makes the Power PC processor but doesn't use it? Instead IBM uses someone else's processors and lets their competition uses the Power PC.
Oh I miss my Voodoo 3 3500TV! It broke in an unfortunate accident when I was moving. My big Athlon Classic CPU slid out of its slot and landed right on the back of my Voodoo breaking off serveral components on the circuit board. I replaced it with a Radeon 7000. It sucks. With my Voodoo on games with a Quake 3 engine, I ran 1280x1024 with everything turned up and it ran smoothly. Now I'm lucky if I get decent framerates at 800x600 and I have to turn off certain video features and overclock the thing to get that much out of it.
There's either a big glitch in this web site, or my computer here at work is seriously screwed. Twice I've tried to check out the benchmarks, and both times, both in different places on the page, IE starts saying Action Canceled, and then about 60 IE windows start opening up on their own, all saying Action Canceled. Wierd stuff.
A new cartridge connector is $10 on ebay. And all you need top put it in is a phillips head screwdriver. The connection is so tight you can play the game without pushing it down in the cartridge chamber.
This just in, My car runs linux, my phone runs linux, my shoes run linux, my dishwasher runs linux, my cat runs linux, when I fart, my fart runs linux, and CowboyNeal runs linux! My point? Why is it news worthy every time something new with a microprocessor runs linux?
Written instructions given to the searchers in Bronson showed a picture of a faceplate from the device, which in white letters on a black background spelled out "Secret Government Property."
If it's secret government property, then why did they write, "Secret Government Property" right on the front of it in big white letters?
Well not only do you have to pay $5 a month or whatever, you also have to have every single expansion pack that has ever been release for the sims before it will work. How many owners of the sims when out and actually bought every expansion pack there is? I'm sure there are many different combinations of expansion packs used. So before you buy the sims online you also have to shell out the cash, or download from KaZaA, ever other expansion pack there is. So I'm sure people are unwilling to pay $60 or $90 on other expansion packs just so they can add another and make it work.
hmm.. I disagree. I think the only classic model I don't like is the 1979 because of the square headlights. I still think of it as a classic model though because after 1979 they turned into little compact chevette looking things. I would refer you to the Nova Gallery on http://www.novaresource.org/ for properly restored novas.
A Chevy Nova in a properly restored form, built between the years of 1962 and 1979 are never junky! They are fine american classics and I'm proud to own a 1976 Nova myself. Where will your opera 7 be in 27 years? Probably on a junk heap.
This has nothing to do with WiFi. My school didn't have WiFi and I still sat in the back of the room surfing while the teacher blabbed on and on about Windows 98. (Yes there was actually a Windows 98 class, which is why I could not pay attention and still pass it). Students will do this if they have access to the internet period. It doesn't have to be wireless.
Um,why does this have to be posted on slashdot? Are there actually people who have never tried to split off their cable modem connection to their tv? This is common knowledge. Hey guess what, it works with roadrunner too! I tried that a long time ago but I never thought it was important enough to post on slashdot.

2 was the funniest one yet. 1 was good,and without 1 there could be no 2. 3 was a let down, but 2 was great.
I will try to answer that question in my next version.

Perhaps I should rephrase. It's Ironic that they done use their own CPU's in their consumer products, but their competition does. :)

Amen.
Guess you should have bought a PC. Or, run Linux on your Mac.
I can't believe they posted the same story ... no. it's too easy... nevermind..

I do seem to remember it saying you needed the sims with several other expansion packs before it would work. I could be mistaken.

Ah yes the Power Mac, it is a very desirable machine......... For me to poop on!
Don't most geeks and nerds gave DVD players that aren't bound by the limits of region codes?
Not only does it have 4 buttons, but they make a streetfighter game for it.

It's really cool in the microwave. Trust me.
I have news for you. The last bit of life left that chip a long time ago. Stop squeezing and let the poor chip die in peace.
