And it seems to go up to 30m... and use crypted communication... welll 80$ for that mouse isn't much. should get one of those if i will need to do some boring presentation again... better than cordless trackball...
Actually, same gyroscope technique can be used on joysticks to make them more real (imagine this thing mounted on your both wrists and body in front of huge screen... well for others it might then look like your'e leading an orchestra;)) but that woulb be really nifty... dammit i will write down this idea for my next robotics project....
This 10GHz processor story is a rumor from someone who visited intel labs and had a look on prototype 10GHz ALU, not processor. And i believe it's also a hoax.
Truth is that for example IBM has some semiconductors in lab with higher clock speeds then 10GHz, but they are fiber recivers, transmitters and stuff like that, but for sure - not x86 compatible processors. And things what are new in labs, aren't expected in public yet...
AFAIK AMD processors are still not ready for heavy multiprocessing yet... I think it's better to wait for hammer series that should have good support for SMP > 2 processors. On other thought, i may be wrong...:)
Ever wondered, what bad blocks on your floppy disk were? It is digital, but when magnetic domains get flipped enought to wrong direction, your ones will become zeroes and contrary.
For that reason, optical media is more secure. BTW, in optical disc writers (CD, DVD) data is written with magnetic forces, reflective layer is heaten with laser to a temperature of currie point, where domains can be influenced with magnetic field. Below that point, domains don't care about magnetic forces. That's why your CD's are hot when they come out of CD writter. That's also why procedure is called toasting;)
Dammit, i really have to look archives of my fidonet node...:P
BTW, i believe it's most stabe maschine i have seen, for now, it has uptime about 3 years. Running MS DOS/DesqView (not DesqViewX)/and ofcourse: FrontDoor/ML (and on bbs side, maximus)
Well i haven't switched monitor on for two years now.. so maybe it's not running after all... last maintance was with Y2K problem, when some messages got screwed up.
Well WDM drivers are exactly what i got in mind when mentioning NT core. And also, ReactOS team should post more news (even minor ones) on reactos.com...;)
It's a really good project and wish you all good luck with it.
As i remember, ReactOS is stil based on NT architecture... And as this architecture becomes obsolete in few years, well it will happen in about time ReactOS gets stable and full featured.
Anyhow, Reactos rules for their concept, but is staying far behind Big Brother..
As i remember from astronomy course, supernova is exploding star. Speed of that explosion frontier is near speed of light... Acvtually, it should be nuclear chain reaction, as stars are powered by nuclear power.
And that means you can't kill explosion of supernova with nuclear weapons, and you can't make a shield strong enought as earth will be vaporized...

Prolog. Most notable use-case is in IBM Watson.
Heavy metal incites youngsters to crime, we all know that.
As far as I know, there is no insurance company in the world who will insure a nuclear fission power plant. Low risk, ah?
As far as I know, they are not astronauts.
Americans in space are astronauts,
Russians in space are cosmonauts,
Chinese in space are taikonauts.
"Taiko" as in taikong, space. "Naut" as in nautical.
So a Chinese-Greek hybrid meaning "space-sailor".
MSP430 series from Texas Instruments are quite good (and with ultra-low power consumption). They also have GNU toolchain available.
Learning C is matter of 27 hours. Just get yourself a K&R book. Been there, done that.
Wonder why it's smelling like rotten fish... maybe it's not fish that is rotten... Have you guys seen "Little Shop of Horror"? ;)
It seems to be using gyroscope. pretty nifty ;)

It's still running, but not at my place, it's on 9th floor of some company building, that has paid phonebills of 3 lines for 7 years now :)
;)
And i'm just lazy Co-SysOP, not real SysOp. But fact is, it still runs
I should make a copy of it's harddrive soon, for presentation of Fidonet and BBS on 3 day event called BBSummer.

No, it's Clipper. It's almost, but not quite, entirelly unlike Pascal ;)

maybe aubit can help, it's GPL'ed 4GL compiler, well actually translator - it generates C code...
check out: http://aubit4gl.sourceforge.net/
Check out maxim 1-wire temperature sensors. Those little monsters are worth to try. They also got serial(RS-232), parallel and USB interface.

LX8382 should be voltage regulator...

Don't worry, you will have a friend called Arthur Dent ;)

but still mostly...
Like i didn't say sorry for my bad english? Dammit i need to get some sleep...
300-400Mbit/s was based on reallife benchmarks on linux posted on either /. or osnews recently... cant remember which
