Once you get past a few thousant polys in MAX your GF2MX is left for dead and it's only the CPU that can get your interface to shake off that zombie shuffle.
Of course that's MAX. Real software isn't so severely unbalanced.
How would you know, you didn't actually read the article?
I refuse to believe you could have read that article and somehow completely miss what it was actually about.
A little education: Your 4 year old octane will still be booting up while the cheap x86 SMP boxes are jsut finishing rendering the first few frames of your animation.
Go ahead and explain why having a 64 bit ISA in this case provides an advantage of any sort.
Perhaps you could then explain how a Sun or SGI has more 'power' when it takes ten times as long to render a scene (what the benchmarks are about, read the article).
clicking a button is that difficult for you!?
It staggers me that there can be semi-literate people like yourself in this world that can't get over the difference between turning a page and clicking a button.
Are you saying you just wouldn't be capable of understanding the whole 'button click=page turn' concept or are you saying you're desperately attempting to accrue karma by pointing out the blindingly obvious in the hope that all the non-native-english speaking slashdot readers will waste their mod points on your post without actually understanding the post?
By the way I LOVE scalpels, I mean SCALPELS! YEAH!!!
"NOOOOOOO!" it screamed, "you may as well sell your soul to CNN and watch U571 37 times in a row!"
The cries of my tortured soul went unheeded however due to the fact that my IQ is at least as low as yours, possible even lower.
Luckily at the last minute in true ultra predictable holywood movie style a 16 ton weight fell fro the sky crushing my mouse to death and preventing me from joining the elite ranks of failed self fellators such as yourself.
I was upset.
So upset I had to fuck your mom a couple of times before I calmed down and I haven't had to do that since about 9 months before you were born.
Careful boieeeeee, "better than QNX" makes you sound a wee bit less than credible, I'll put it down to youthful enthusiasm this time but next time I'm a gonna shit in yo shoes.
And why do you think anyone cares about your pathetic insipid 'opinion'?
you're very very boring, you havenothing to contribute.
Don't do this sort of thing again or I'll hurt you bad baby.

The beam is in a spectrum of light invisible to the human eye.
Reflected light (from dust etc...) will also be invisible.
Superheating such a thin beam of atmosphere will create a sound something like this;
"pop!"
Not really audible over the noise of a tank and certainly no use for a positional fix.
If anything the installer is the loose pocket change of the OS that scratches the fuck out of its credit card.
The real heart of an OS is the distributed ego of all the people who had some part in creating it and who later fight for recognition of their insignificant efforts.
I know the Slashdot editorial team like to put the absolute minimum amount of effort required for this site but you'd think it's be standard practice by now to, if not actually mirror the covered site, then to at least hunt down and link the Google caced version.
What am I saying?!
These spunk weevils don't even have the wit to run a spell-checker over their 'work'.

Multiple choice:
a)My mp3 collection is HUGE, I mean it's SO much bigger than yours you should be turning green with envy.
b)You can only fit hours of on this drive according to my calculations which I will now list in order to invite ridicule on my crap math skills.
c)the clever sales person told me you have to have at least 80GB of memory these days and he wouldn't lie to me he was really clevar.

HaHaHaHaHa!
*points at person wo can't tell difference between FUD and fact*
Firstly a dual P4 board (sorry but your board is obsolete) is far more expensive than any dual BX board.
Secondly the P3s for that board of yours, and the P4s for the board that could compete with the board on test cost many times what the Atlons do.
We don't do we?
Well I do and I'm a professional 3D artist.

How is the above post "insightful"!?
All the tested packages in the article are virtually feature-identical and interface-identical across both platforms!
Trust me, despite his protestations the above is most definately a troll.

Obviously not.
Go try karma whoring somewhere else or I'll eat your babies.
With really salty gravy and brussel sprouts.

I'm not French, I just kiss (and smell) that way.

Hey! Less of the salt shaker shenanigans!
I just had the old guy restuffed.

I have my own death camp shower room for those.
I bring a few of the more colourful ones out into the living room around christmas time though.
I'm not sure I could deal with one wall mounted Santa let alone two of them.
I don't have the room anyway unless I dump the crucified Jesus next to the tv or maybe a rhino head or two.
Four hours?
You think that's long enough for you to work out where to 'hide the sausage'?
From the level of intelligence in your post I recommend you get a book or two to give you a few pointers.

That should save everyone else lots of typing.
My assumption was that he is male.
A good looking young lad could make $3000 before christmas no problem.
What does being heterosexual have to do with being a 13 year old male prostitute?
Prostitution is a lucrative business for someone of your age.
Mod above comment down.
BomberMan helped make the PCEngine a much sought after item and some of the best versions of it exist on the Genesis and SNES.
You've had your head in a very boring hole for a very long time not to have noticed this.
