It's time for linux to be remarketed with a baby penguin. Seriously when you take linux and turn it outside down and rip the guts out... is it still linux anymore? No. Embedded Linux now needs one of those "Linux inside" stickers on all windows CE boxes... oh wait....
The article actually hints at the fact that there is such a thing as "SCO stock holders". LMAO that's too funny. Why the hell are people investing in lawyers.
If competition heats up, you'd be talking about a sub $100 iPod. I don't know about you, but I sure hope M$ succeeds to some degree. Now all we need is ford, ferrari and a couple autodealers to sell mp3 / gears... and iPod price will tank.
OMG There are so many people siding with Bush on this post. Do you not find it ironic that these "happy data" are flying out at the time of the republican convention.
It's the same thing when Regan kept the prisoner CIA agent in jail until election time. Bang, all of a sudden he's found and Regan is a hero. Woohoo, everyone vote for him again. Conspiracy 101... it's pretty weak.
I don't know why the original poster got a 0 flamebait. This is a valid arguement. You nintendo fanboys are just flaming people at random. If nintendo supports turning the DS into a bomb, you fanboys will still clap.
Face it, the marketing scheme doesn't make sense. One day this thing will support watching porn. And parents will realize their kids weren't really playing pokemon for 12 hrs.
The birth of the Internet should count when the first porn picture was published. Seriously, until it was made to the masses with a non-scientific use did it matter to the public.
It doesn't matter if it's gold or not. Like Doom III, most people will rush out to buy this game. Owners with ATI cards will probably still struggle to get a decent FPS until Catalyst 5.0 or something.
Pessimistic me, no? I am damn realistic. Check all the forums and customers screaming for help. Then compare it to the game company's marketing materials. It's always night and day! If anyone expect HL2 to work out of the box for most users, they're going to be terribly disappointed.
Tell me about it. The sad part is that this filesystem sounds like IBM's jfs/jfs2, which has been around for eternity. It's being hyped up to the cazillion degree like it's something special. It's NOT. So the order goes...
You need to figure out ways to embush the guy who fired you, and beat him senseless with a baseball bat or windows PC. Only then will you understand the meaning of that research.
The banning is all about $$$$$. It's the same reason libraries didn't carry Jurassic park when the book first came out with the movie. You had to either pay to see the movie or pay to buy the book. A local library near me offered $1 rental for Jurassic park the book.
Forget life span. What about market span. Isn't the Sony PSP supposed to have some mpeg playback capabiliities? The market is too diluted with these portable devices.
I own mini-iPod and although it's great... I still don't know if it's worth that kind of money. They should be in the $150 range. Another device now at $400 is a killer in your wallet.
It's natural to see techsupport folks are always the one complaining about the offshoring since they are the most vocal.
Developers and hardcore engineers typically don't talk as much. As a result management will be happy to cash out on the quiet group. Off shoring them positions else where. I am not saying there is no good developers offshore, I am just saying developers are the easiet social target for management to pick on. Human Resource 101.
Ok this project might be too demanding. For example the same model Pinnacle Dv200 firewire capture card had a green board and a red board. They are essentially the same card. How can all the users be this detailed? Nowadays even hardware boards have multiple different versions.
Nah. Those are the old days where they advertise products that exist.
Look at Doom III, they have a game called "Super Turkey Turbo Puncher". When this game gets released for real, it'll be a smash hit automatically. I can't wait to punch that turkey for 500 pt.
Come on all, didn't you see that M$ commercial where the 19 year old looking IT kid saved the company a million dollars and ran the entire IT department with 1 windows 2003 server. All the managements were looking at the kid like "wow, can I worship you". This kid saved the company and $$$. I don't think even Linus himself could save a company with 1 windows license.
Anyone worry that years from now they'll find out wireless causes cerebral cancer or something? Sad part is you can't run away.
Just like lasik eye surgery or x-rays, all the bad news come after marketing have cashed in. Leaving the scientists, engineers and doctors to pick up the slack.

I am looking for a real emulator for the PSX and N64. The 8-bit/16-bit emulators are so established, I see NO reason for new ones to come out.
Anyone know of a good PSX/N64 emulator that's FREE and works with ATI/Nvidia cards.
Anyone know of a good place to download ROMs anyways?

You are only someone's bitch when you are a TA. College professors don't even teach, they just get paid while TA does all the work.
Especially under Steve Jobs, who's notorious for a nasty attitude toward engineers. Isn't it just a hostile environment.
If you were that good of an engineer why work at Apple? Why not pick and choose. Go to Creativelabs/Sony and give them an edge and more.
Linux will always be 1 step ahead in security.
MS will always be 1 step ahead in features.
Guess what, features sell. Maybe in the year 3000 things might be different.
How many times can people fall for the same marketing trick. Infinite.

Ah the erectile dysfunction pills and penile enhancement industry is in trouble now.
They need to put some serious emphasis on that 2MB integrated buffer DRAM. Is that a joke or what?! They need to at least triple this.
I can't think of how many games came out for PS1 like Marvel vs capcom where they have problems letting you swap characters due to RAM limitation.
How in the world can a university charging $35000 a year in tuition be in financial trouble?!
If it's possible for MIT to exist for so long in the 60s, 70s charging a tuition of $5000, why not now?
And why are you claiming she who is a president will straighten out the finances all by herself. She's not an accountant.

George Bush's definition of a terrorist is "Someone who is evil."
I'll take your definition over his any day.
