Well lets see you buy an iBook with an extra battery that can be used in conjunction with the battery already included. Even on the Powerbook they both can't be used at the same time.
I'd rather have a Sager Notebook. Although you can't get it in Dell's nice Enhanced UXGA it can come with a Pentium 4 2.4 GHz and a Radeon Mobility 7500 which outclasses the GF4Go in speed. At 2.4 GHz it can last almost 4 hours with the optional secondary battery. Also, even though it is bundled with Windows almost all the hardware is Linux friendly. See for yourself.
Having a nice cup of coffee right now. Apparently you were still in diapers when Windows 95 was released. Around the time the first Pentiums started to come out, Windows 95 was released that boasted the new (although crippled and not crippled in NT) Win32 API. Next time check your facts before you waste the time to post.
I remember Opera (Win32) being able to fit the installer on a disk and running on a 386 with only 8 MB of ram. Quite a feat. I used to enjoy its zippy speed on my 200 mhz Pentium class computer compared to the hulky behemoths Navigator and Internet Explorer. However, when Navigator started to lose out and IE hit version 5 and became quite a bit faster (along with the fact that it was intergrated into the OS heh) I stopped using Opera. It is nice to see that it still is small in foot print (although no longer fits on a floppy and no longer runs on a 386 with 8 MB of ram) and is still faster than the larger competition in most cases. I think this article has done it, I am gonna download the new Opera and give it a try.:)

My dad would come home from work and tell me that the computer (probably something 8 bit) at work would fail several times a day. Mainly the hard drive (which was as huge as an ATX full tower case and only stored 10 mb) would stop accessing so they would have to reboot the computer. How did they do that? They gave a swift kick to the hard drive and the machine started right back up.
When the ninja vampires were swinging on the roof of Blade's hide-out, the whole audience started laughing because it looked so cartoony. Most of the fights looked really cartoony, however the movie was ok overall.
It probably cost less silicon space to access the next portion of the segment than to hardwire to zero. This could also be a benefit in some ways but having a true 32 bit addressing would of been the thing to opt to at that time.

No. The polygons in THPS2 are coming straight out of the ARM processor. Take note that there are only 30 polygons or so in each character. The special chip you are talking about was meant to handle kick ass 2D only. However, since it supports 2d scaling, rotation, skewing, alpha, etc. many clever programmers have taken advantage of that and used those abilities to create 3D engines, but the chip was meant for 2D only.

Ack, please ignore that. Let a friend mess around with the computer with /. open. Sorry. :)
stfu. you slobber over male members.

Most Sony Vaios mini-notebooks can last 10 hours or longer with an additional battery. That is much longer than the iBook or Titanium isn't it?

It isn't the Enhanced UXGA (higher contrast/viewing angle/faster refresh) screen that Dell offers though. :(
Sweet! Thanks for letting me know!

Add about 7-9 years ago to the picture and it was running Windows 95 just fine as well as Yggdrsil Linux. Nice try troll.

It claimed no search results for Slashdot. :P

You mean a stripped down Windows 2000 kernel. It was only 24k if i recall correctly.

That's scary. I'm gonna need to make a case mod out of things I find in my kitchen.

We used to lovingly call it the "hammerboard" because it would take a hammer on the buttons to register keystrokes. :)

Anybody compare them yet? Too bad they don't have a comparison with ogg vorbis. :(
If this device uses USB 2.0, then I might already be sold.
I doubt trillian supports the exploitable features. Remember, trillian isn't a complete clone of AIM.
