Saying "she's as fat as a rhinoceros" could not be reasonably construed by anyone as a literal fact. You know it's an exaggeration. Go watch "The People vs. Larry Flynt" for more information.
Considering that these are JAVA based systems, why pick the processor that bent over backwards to be x86 compatible? I know, they won't be using x86 instructions, but what strategic significance is there for going with AMD vs. Intel or IBM?
Linux yes. Pirating games no. Sony, Nintendo, and Sega have all used "non-standard" hardware and there has always been a way to pirate games. Let's drop the anti-MS stuff for a second and realize that a games console doesn't need to be a general purpose PC. MS can get more bang for the buck by designing this animal to the spcific application of games only.
Non-linear writing is fine. "Memento" was a great movie that used the technique effectively. "Audition" did not. It was poor filmaking. Perhaps you ought to see a few good movies rather than assuming everything from Japan is gold.
I have a freind with advanced prostate cancer. It's in his bone marrow. From the link, I doubt he would be a candidate since his prostate is already gone. However, I would like to know if this treatment (once it's approved) would benefit him. Since the cancer has already spread throughout his body, I doubt it.
I've seen my share of Anime, and it's not an issue of a "traditional western storyline" that's lacking. Too many storylines in Japanese movies and anime are simply lacking quality. Important details are left out of the story line. There are giant plot holes you could drive a bus through. This applies to live action films, too. Compare "Ringu" and "The Ring." There are so many unexplained occurences in "Ringu" that were developed and explained in the remake. "Audition" is a sick, sick movie, that will stay in your mind for days. However, the writers do a horrible job leading up to the climax. All these flashbacks are too confusing and there are too many scenes that make no damn sense.
The defense given is that this is just "film noir" and is supposed to be hard to follow. Bull. It's poor writing.
RedHat is leaving their desktop customers in the cold. Mind you, we're not talking about new versions of RedHat. We're talking about SUPPORTING older OSes that people use and RELIED on RedHat being there for them. Just like some people who use Windows NT 4.0 still expect MS to keep on supporting their old OS. RedHat is WORSE than Microsoft. That is why you are a biased fool. If you still can't see that, then there's nothing else I an say to make it easier for you to comprehend.
I'm glad you're not working for Red Hat. They may actually want to win.
>Then you've got to do a better job than the competition.

>MS is no worthy competitor on the server market. RedHat is already doing
better than MS on that market.

>MS is not a competitor on the desktop since RedHat is leaving that market.
MS isn't a worthy competitor? I guess all those sales of NT 4.0 server,
Windows 2000 server, and Windows 2003 server were imaginary. MS may or may
not have beat RedHat, but they are certainly a competitor. The reason
RedHat is leaving the desktop arena is because they realize they CAN'T do it
better than Microsoft. They can't do a better job than the competition, so
they're leaving. Exactly my point.
>When MS announced it was killing off NT 4.0 support by the end of
this year, all you heard was pissing and moaning on/.
>When Red Hat drops support, all I see are excuses.

>Uhm no. Look better. There were tons of excuses on that WinNT story too.
People were massively making excuses for Microsoft.

>All you see here is excuses? You must be blind. There are tons of people
flaming RedHat as we speak, and they even get modded to +5.
And they deserve to get modded to +5, because they are right. Unlike you,
who is an apologist for RH.
Excuses, excuses. You want to win? Then you've got to do a better job than the competition. Stop making excuses for Red Hat.

That's BS, it's not like copyright infringement has been or was any worse than it was before the digital age.
You can honestly say with a straight face that Napster and mod chips didn't make the music and video game piracy orders of magnitude worse? Getting a copy of your friend's cassette tapes still required a fair amount of time and effort to accomplish. Video game systems prior to the PSX has bootlegs, but you couldn't get every game for free with just a $50 modchip and a bunch of 25 cent cds.
Yes, but wouldn't that mean all Nintendo needs to do is stockpile a bunch of SNES hardware and sell them at a super high price? Unfortunately, the interpretation of "reasonable" won't be decided until a Supreme Court decision is made.
I think we should try to find a way to score with women and figure out how that applies to the problem at hand. Hell, it worked so well for the schizo guy in that Ron Howard movie, he got a Nobel award for it!
It's kind of relative based on how much actual knowledge the subject has. For example, I can explain what a GUI is in a sentence. However, it's going to raise all other sorts of questions like, "what's an operating system?" and "what's a mouse?"

I'm very happy with Yahoo Mail and it's free spam filtering system However, I've heard their premium service will (or now does) offer a Bayesian spam filtering service. They're also going to offer a "spam gourmet" service that will allow you to give out an email that can be discarded after you're done with it.

McFact #1: The coffee the lady bought was over 270 degrees. That is dangerous.
270 degree water? Wow. McDonalds has magic coffee beans that raise the boiling point of water to 270 degrees?

Geez, how about buying a search engine that WORKS? I can't find shit on Radio Shack since their search engine was powered by Ask Jeeves.

Who said the printer was plugged into the UPS? The UPS detected a drop in the voltage line itself and switched on to compensate.
Great product. Just beware of the current drain when you power that monster on. Causes my UPS to switch on every time.
