I have installed all windows OS'es times and have installed Linux in two flavors. Windows 95 on are cake to install. Follow the simple on screen instructions, works nearly every time with most of the hardware in its respective day. Win Xp is so simple it is not even funny. It also installs drivers for things like a gf3 and my hpt372 raid controller. Tried to install debian on hpt372 raid and of course it doesn't recognize it. Go to highpoint's web site and they don't have a driver for Debian. They do have the files so you can build your own though, yippee. Suse is somewhat simple again however it doesn't always work and the raid driver for it is about 8mbs which is just stupid when the windows version is a few hundred k. I will be installing Mandrake 8.2 this weeked to see what that is like. Linux has evolved but to claim it matches the ease of installation that Windows XP has is nothing more that a disillusioned lie.
In the article the use the word "beleaguered" however spell it as "beleagured". How can we expect our children to learn when our most recognized newspapper prints such fallacies.
That most of the people that claim to be Christains are not really Christains. The Roman Catholic church itself isn't even Christain neither are most of the people from any other church. Christainity has been corrupted by "churches" since Christ himself left.
That is a shame because MoHaa was a really good game. I think there is a mod out that adds blood, but if you are really that into blood then perhaps you should see some one.
All that this will do is stop a few of those who lack computer literacy the ability to copy their cd's to their hard drive. It is obvious that any sort of protection will be overiden by the technological elite from either America or somewhere else in the world. With the growing use and increased user friendliness of computers anyone who is smart enough to rip a cd will be able to find the crack online.
A good read even if it really is news or stuff that matters, a little humor never killed anyone. Of course if you are one of the many polled by the NSF who answered NO to the question Is there any particles smaller than an atom then don't waste your time.
The human mind will continue to come up with great idea's but these will mostly be improvments upon existing base idea's. This is of course a little nieve to say considering people have probably said the same thing for thousands of years. However for the next 50 or so years I don't really see us coming up with another invention to rival the above mentioned.
We are done making cool invention. We have the TV, Radio, Computer, car, train, phone, boat, plane, space shuttle. We have overcome every inate obstacles we posses as humans, all that is left is to improve on them, and of course genetically engineer ourselves. If that happens...
Multiplayer is where all the fun is in todays games. Here shiny graphics mean nothing. It is a contest between humans to see who is the best. Basketball has been around since 1890's and hasn't changed much. People play it because nothing is more fun then hitting the three pointer to win the game, or rockect jumping off the wall backwards switching to a rail gun and nailing your opponent to win.
True that we ourselves may bring foriegn elements onto Mars which may kill existing life. To think though that they would wipe out all life or even all of a specific class would be nieve. One thing we have learned is that life expecially life with short lifespans, and low cell counts is adept at reacting to a changing enviroment. If any form of life we bring to Mars begins to kill off existing life I will bet that it will adapt and change itself to ward off the attacker.
It seems that you can find a Scientist to back any stance you can think of. This makes me wonder how much of "science" really is science. Is what we consider to be the scientific truth nothing more than a large group of scientist agreeing to a certain conclusion and using pieces of evidence to back their claims. Without our freedom of free speech and the ability to challenge any scientific theory by going to a local university and conducting the expirements ourselves in some cases it is easy to see how in countries that tightly control the press and its scientist how easily our reality could be so easily distorted, then again who is to say it isnt.
Unless an invention comes from IBM I just assume it is vaporware or that it won't be invented until some company with a lot of capital comes in and buys it. Now if MS buys the technology to make 10+ ghz chips and then bundles them together with their software then we are in trouble. With a proprietary CPU 5 times faster even XP will run faster then the leanest self compiled Linux kernel.

If you are looking for a review before you just go out and buy software based on free code.
Any readers actually have the product yet.

The economy in Japan right now is suffering pretty bad. The unmployment rate is relatively high at over 5% and has been higher the than US has had at any point in our "recession". So the government decides to pump a few hundred million into the economy while being able to lay claim to the fastet computer in the world, to give the citizens a little consumer confidence in their technoligically supperior country.
Faster machines are being designed at government-financed labs in Livermore, Pittsburgh and Los Alamos, N.M., but they are far from operational.
That is from the article but I would like to know more about the specs and when they plan to be opperational.
I was pretty dissapointed. I admit it was pretty simple to use and to troubleshoot. It really doesn't have much for functionality. All the cool sutff is hidden like in XP. I find it annoying.
Your ability to recall every prerequisite to every advance in the original Civilization is a testament to the game and its adictive nature. BTW I always hated the Mongols.
That is becuase your muscles are all torn up waiting to rebuild. Try it for 3 months then rest for about 2 weeks and eat well and then see what you can accomplish. Arnold!

If you need to reboot 14 times to install 2k you must not know what you are doing.

How does a game about the movie Tron have anything to do with Linux other than the fact they both relate to computers?

Even if a beowulf cluster couldn't keep track of that much info, (and it could) at the rate computers are advancing it would just a matter of time.

People are always looking for the end of the world. Trust me (or actually Revelations, Daniel, etc) it will be pretty obvious.
What happens if on a calm summers eve a freak storm arises. Now the waves are a staggering 3 meters. We all swim back or what.

Dude outside of Japan nobody knows about Yoshinoya.
