No, for NT4 it was SP3, SP5, and SP6a. SP6 was a disaster and had to be recalled and a fixed.a version released which removed a terrible NTFS corruption bug. Windows 2000 was completely usable at launch, I should know I've run it on servers and workstations ever since (workstations went to XP soon after release once our software was supported on it). Generally though I like to run the big apps like Exchange and SQL Server only after the first SP though =)

Have you played Silent Storm yet? It lacks the world map aspect of XCOM but it has much of the same gameplay mechanics (squad turn based strategy) and is REALLY fun to play. Unfortunatly the publisher sucks so the followup game Silent Storm:Sentinels isn't available in the US, but if you are serious about wanting to play the game you can get the Gold pack (which includes both games) from the UK for about what either one would have cost origionally. There are playable demos available online for both games.
Here is a Perl script to batch convert flac to mp3 including preservation of id3v2 tags. As to why use WMA, well if you have a WMA player which doesn't support mp3.....
I really doubt it for 99.99+% of listeners, systems, and tracks. I've done blind ABC testing between source, LAME VBR mp3 with extreme settings, OOG, and some other codecs and I can't pick out the LAME MP3's vs source for almost all tracks. I have Sennheiser HD555 headphones and tested perfectly on my hearing test at my last work physical.
All US currency paper is made by Crane Stationary. Their Fluorescent White, woven paper is one of the best base papers to use for counterfeits at a mid level as it feels like currency and reacts to test pens the same way, however the Crane's watermark is a dead givaway for close inspection. The $2 bill has few of the modern anti-counterfeit measures, no color, no strip, and no watermark. Of course its rarity and low denomination make it an unlikely target for counterfeiters.
No,the guidance computers were upgraded as part of the glass cockpit update. This not only made it easier to obtain information in the cockpit but provided more telemetry information to ground controll.
Little is left unchanged on the Shuttle fleet except the airframe, which if designed right can almost last forever. The B-52 fleet has many airframes older than the parents of the people flying them for instance. None of the members of the shuttle fleet have that many launches on them, and with things like the entire engine being redesigned and rebuilt and the computers being massivly updated over the years the shuttles are only superficially the same craft as were first launched in the 80's.
Yes, but between the arial and the phones aux antenna jack is enough line, connectors, and other equipment that it's probably producing about the same amount of signal as the built in antenna.
Dude, it's not even that much driving. I do over half that much just doing my daily commutes for work each month. My father was a salesman with a multistate territory, his best ever was putting 120K miles on a car in 22 months. I believe the leasing angency was in sheer awe of someone that does that much driving =) If you drive every work day (average 20 work days per month) to do 3,000 miles a month you only have to drive 150 miles a day, that is simply nothing.
Distribution does not mean routing. Distribution means policy. Cisco's model is to do very fast, efficient routing at the core, and fast switching at the access layer and leave all of the heavy policy processing in the distribution layer. This is a VERY scalable model, and it also happens to lead to a lot of switch sales... From what I saw of Cisco's own network (late 90's) they didn't even follow the idea themselves for satelite offices. In the satelite offices I admin'd we had one or more routers, connected to a pair of 6500 series chassis with redundant supervisor modules connected to the routers. These constitued the core. The access layer was a 6500 or 4500 series layer 3 switch connected to both of the core switches. Policies were implemented on the access layer switches which had more than enough oomph to do both fast switching and policy management.
That would only be true if the antenna on your card was a perfect omni. It's not. However it might be close enough for it not to matter over short distances like what would typically be involved in a mobile 802.11 network. Still you only need two recievers to triangulate a position, the third point is the source.
Explain to them that they are a bunch of clueless morons who need to educate themselves on the difference between a tool and a crime. If you need to point out a widespread legitimate use of Bittorrent technology just point them to the 1.5 million users of World of Warcraft which uses BT as its befault patch distribution method through the Blizzard supplied patch client.
Uh, how do you know that's NOT double his hourly wage when you include benifits? If you make $100K / year then the cost to your employer is roughly $100/hour double that and you get to $200/hour, so it's not that far off. As a consultant I generally charge $150/hour and for some clients who have infrequent need for my service but where the problems they have when they DO need me justify it I charge $200/hour, and I'm in the midwest.
Huh? What about the Scion, or the Sharp PDA's. There were plenty of PDA's out before the Newton. Of course they had at best handwriting capturing, not recognition, and weren't generally programmable, but they were PDA's.
The funny thing is it all started off as an innocent research project. MS wanted to be able to boot servers without local storage off of PXE. The problem is that many of their security concious customers were worried about the OS being modified as it was loaded over the network. So an MS researcher started looking into the problem, and the easiest way he could come up with that was reasonably secure was to have two way authentication between the hardware and the software. The problem is that MS usurped it as a way to apease the media companies so that they could become the next distribution channel for entertainment content.
IBM has had the hardware in place in their laptop line for the last several years. It makes repairs which require a motherboard swap a PITA because you have to be sure to order the part with the crypto in place if your current system had one, which might not know about the first time you do one, resulting in a several day delay....
Dude, MS is big enough that they push empires around. Or do you think that the DOJ really won something against MS or that MS isn't a major player in the brute forcing of software patents being done in the EU? Once you get to a certain size monopoly you are big enough that even the people temporarily in charge of the empires start to listen.
Oh how I wish I had mod points. That has GOT to be one of the coolest devices to come out this year. And the best part is the price, cheaper to purchase and WAY cheaper to operate than a traditional projector. Of course it's limited to only 40" and SVGA resolution, plus it will probably be low lumens but still a VERY cool product. Just wish there was a chance that a 1200+ lumen LED projector could be built, I need a projector for doing VJ gigs but the cost of replacement bulbs in a mobile environment makes it way our of my toy budget and I'm not free enough to try to go pro.
Some built into stone like the Manatou cliffs in the four corners area, others used straw and clay bricks such as the Navajo and Taos. Either way the principal is the same, use a metric shitload of mass to act as a heatsink for the heat of the day =)
No, the indians of the SW US and N Mexico proved centuries ago that LOTS of mass is the best solution to a hot climate. Build several foot thick walls of stone or stone like material and you have a natural cooling material. Of course a concrete structure which is designed to go up around an inflatable form probably isn't thick enough to recieve the necessary benifits =)
The problems with prefab housing are twofold, first and most importantly is that anything which is light enough to allow for economical transport of economically buildable subsections is going to be chinsy compared to a real timber and 3/4" plywood plus 3/4" hardwood floors. The second problem is that preparing the site and combining the pieces takes almost as much labor as rough framing an equivilant structure, and all of the labor besides the site prep and rough framing is done by skilled laborers that will charge about the same for their work whether it is done onsite or as part of assembling prefab blocks.
Well, if you are going to use STP you need to be using equipment designed for it. Equipment designed for STP needs to have a good ground plane and needs to bring that plane out to each port. Between the grounding of the jacket and the twisted pair STP cabling should not be worse performing that UTP, and in some environments is MUCH better. Of course in any invironment with enough RF noise to warrant STP I would just use fibre and not have to worry about the RF at all =)
Just creat your profile on the new computer, but don't enter your password. Then close Mozilla, and browse to the profile location (on windows it's c:\documents and settings\{login}\application data\mozilla\profiles\{random string}\mail) and replace the inbox (no extension) file with the inbox file from your previous profile. You can include the index file (.snm?) if you want, but Mozilla will reindex it if you don't. Subfolders take more work, you'll either need to recreate them and replace them all or learn to modify the preferences file.
