One of the most useful things about the 925 chipset, IMHO, is the interesting possibilities it offers for SATA RAID. Say you want the performance capabilities of RAID 0, but at the same time, you need the redundancy for RAID 1. let's also say that you can only afford two SATA drives.
the intel 925 chipset has native support for a mixed raid, where you can create a raid 0 partiiton across two hard drives, using only part of the hdd capacity on each drive for the raid 0 partition. the rest of the unpartitioned space can be set aside as a raid 1 partition. that way you can install the OS and other non-critical files tha can be lost to the raid 0 partition and get the performance, but if one of the drives fail, you can store your important stuff on the raid 1 partition. I'm trying to find a controller card that will do this functionality, but I can't find anyone that claims to explicitly support it. the only reason I know about the 925 features is I got a chance to play with a pre-production board. definitely a cool feature.
I work at dell too, but that part about dell coming out to do the troubleshooting being in the contract is usually not true. most service contracts are such that dell will dispatch a part after troubleshooting over the phone WITH YOU. if your contract dictates that you're supposed to have a tech come out to do the troubleshooting, you shold mention that and they'll look it up. if you have an onsite resolution contract, i.e. you paid for that privelege, then a tech gets sent out to troubleshoot. that's how it's supposed to work, anyway.
That's just dumb. The daily show is not a balanced show. they have balanced guests, drawing from both the left and right of the political spectrum, but to say that the show is neutral in its presentation is disingenuous.
That being said, the daily show is my favorite show on basic cable.
probably yes on whitehouse.com, but goatse, I'd say no. I haven't read the actual USC on it yet, but I figure this guy got the book thrown at him because he was deliberately misleading children to porn sites. I mean, seriously, that's all kinds of wrong. The statute will probably be misapplied in the future, but at least they were smart enough to make the first prosecution under it an obvious open and shut case.
As for goatse, it's not exactly deliberately misleading people. any simpleton can see that there might be something untoward about it, or at the least, not have a preset expectation toward it.
get a Whole Hog system from High End Systems. The OS on the board is rolled from scratch linux, and the boards are pretty much an industry standard due to the high quality of their product. They're not cheap, but they are the best. It'll probably do everything you want to do and more. if you really are a theater geek, you should know about them. they are one of the few real names in robotic lighting.
pretty much nothing to call into question what he said. granted, I didn't rtfa, but I would like to hear from some slashdot users of a windows vulnerability that was exploited on a large scale before a patch was released.
There's a lot of hand wringing and self righteous indignation over the statement, but has anyone bothered actually to counter it?
what I've found to be highly effective with my 3 (!) cats in my small 2 bedroom apartment is keeping a spray bottle on hand full of water. when the cats go somewhere they know they're not supposed to or do something they're not supposed to, they get thoroughly soaked. a warning squirt is usually good enough to keep them from being stupid, but if they insist, a good shower will usually discipline them with no ill effects.
barring that, if you scruff them (grab a good chunk of skin on the back of their neck) and hold them down to the ground, they usually get the picture that they're being disciplined and will learn not to do that behavior.
That being said, if you don't have to pay for it, go for it. I work at a major computer manufacturer, and they encourage us to get as many certifications as we can. in fact, one of the primary ways to get ahead in terms of promotions and moving to other departments is getting certified. One person I know has gotten 5 certifications over the past year and hasn't had to pay a dime for it. In my company it shuttles you up the corporate ladder much faster.
If CBS stops broadcasting hdtv signals they'll have a nasty surprise when the FCC revokes the rights of broadcasters to use the regular spectrum they're using now.
Ya know, federal law states that you can collect $500 for every unsolicited fax you receive at your number, and if you can show that the fax was sent knowingly to one who didn't wish to receive it, you can receive treble damages in the amount of 3 times the statuatory penalty, or $1500. you could quit your job and just collect money from junk fax judgements.
looks like he just took quicken or MS money or some equivalent application and added addresses and posted the locations on a map. This doesn't seem to be nearly the scope of ashcroft's wet dream come true (TIA).
Anyone who's worked for Dell knows that anyone in a grunt position (tech support, sales, customer support, etc.) starts out as an employee of a contracting company (these days it's Spherion). do these employees count? they're not employees of dell (for example).

h3wat are you tlaking about? Iv'e always used aspotrophes right
or maybe technology to detect bad grammar on slashdot posts?

um.....just why is it you hate the corporation? do you have a good reason, or is it a knee jerk reaction to the word "corporation"?

Just like Nancy Pearl
all this happened right after water spilled in my motherboard, so that's comforting to hear.
huh? yes it is. you're being sued by the state.

oh yeah?? well, then why is it that when I click "Internet Explorer" I get taken to the world wide web? answer me that smartypants..

We finally see what a shameful wishful thought heavier than air flight is. maybe now we'll stop pouring so much money into this dream of a madman.
