We have linux print/file servers in the company I work for (being acessed by windows clients)... the admins said that they tested both and linux is much faster and reliable than windows boxes!

Hi Dave!
Blame History Channel for my last message!:))
I already heard the story about this french fighter causing Tu-144 crash. I just dont remember where I read that!
I think soviets didnt continue developing Tu-144 because it was not interesting for them to, Russia is a HUGE country and moving less people at higher speed is not as interesting as moving LOTS of people at lower speed. They actually have amazing projects like An-124, An-225, Tu-96M (incredible plane).
Tu-144 was much larger than Concorde wasnt it? I guess Tupolevs plane was able to carry almost 200 people against 100 from Concorde!
hahahhahah
Of course its a urban legend!!:)))
I heard about kosmospen, but Im not sure if its poisonous! Im going to check it out!

> Tu-144 was considered too dangerous. It had the bad flight long before British-French Concorde had its own, though.
In fact, Concorde was "upgraded" after Tu-144 flew for the first time. the engine placement, the nose, the wing aerodynamics were all based on Tu-144 design.
Not to mencion that Tu-144 could fly higher, faster and longer than Concorde. Nasa bought the remaining Tu-144 and used it a lot during some years.
Just remember that the ISS is actually being built by Russian Space Program! US are paying huge amounts of money so Russians can lead the project and build that Space Station. In fact, ISS was meant to be called MIR2 (MIR means peace in russian) but american government forbid that!
I read this yesterday:
"When americans first went to space they realised that pens would not write on zero gravity enviroment. They spend billions of dollars, years of development, the most advanced technologies were used to build a pen that would write on zero gravity, under the water, on the most dangerous conditions known to man, etc.
The russians used a pencil."

> 1. They built 3x more nukes then us.
They also have the most powerfull nuclear weapon ever build. A 100 mt nuke that they once droped for testing purposes limiting its power to 60mt (but it still the most powerfull ever dropped), the shockwave created circled earth 3 times disabling all radio comunications for more than an hour!!!
> 2. The Su-30MK is the fastest and easily the best fighter ever built.
Yep. Right. The SU-30MK is an modified version of a SU-27 and it is actually the best fighter in action.
> 3. The NEW MiG-35 (when it goes into final production) will be as good as our new F-22 and better then the planned F-35.
Actually that is the SUKHOI 35 not the Mikoyan Gurevich (MIG). The Sukhois 35 and 37 and the only sixth generation fighter ever build. The Su-35 and 37 (an upgraded version with VTC) are incredible, they are fast, highly manuverable, etc, etc, etc. I have some AVIs showing a SU-37 manuvering at extremely low speed and not stalling!!! Mail me if you want the video!
> 4. Russia built the most and the largest submarines during the cold war.
Thats the 949 Thypoon. Its so big that its twice larger than US larger sub. It has 24 intercontinental balistic missiles each one carring six independent 20 mt nukes!:)) INCREDIBLE!!!
> 5. Ak-47, 74, and the new 94 models are easily the best guns ever produced.
Ak-47 was created by Germans during WW2, russians stole it! But it is indeed a AWESOME weapon. AK-74 and 94 are 100% russian designs and they are way better than any other weapon ever produced. Ak-47 need NO maintenance for more than 1 year of continuos use!
> 6. T-90 tanks are probably as smart and tough as our tanks.
T-90 are the best tanks ever build, specially if equiped with reactive armor, an armor that detects incoming shots and explodes it before hiting the T-90! The T-90 and T-72 can easily survive an nuclear explosion!
> 7. C-300 anti aircraft/anti-missile system so much better then the Patriot missile we acctually bought some from the Russians!
Soviet/Russian anti-aircraft missiles are the best in the world. They can hit planes flying high altitudes and at speed of mach 9! The SA-12, the most advanced AAM is capable of manuvering at 80k feet at 20g!!! It is capable of hiting enemy aircraft more than 600 miles away!! Its also capable of hiting Tomahawk missiles and its E-Band radar is capable of locking aircrafts like the B-2 and the F-22 (aka invisible planes).
Russian fighters also carry the most advanced missiles on earth. The R-73 as an example is 10 years ahead US sidewinder. The R-77 is so advanced it can lock on a bird and hit planes manuvering at 30g!
I completely agree with the point that their space program is one of the USSR/Russia pride! Dont forget that US (Nasa) is paying for them to build the International Space Station!!!
in fact, their whole armed forces was (and IS) pretty amazing too! their submarines are with no doubt the best ones (Akula and Typhoon), their bombers and fighters are among the best of all times (Tu-192, SU-35), their tanks with reactive armor are AMAZING not to mention technologies they have like Glonass and other.
Im worried about the feedbacks that a normal keyboard produces and that this virtual one will not. Sure its a great product, but feedbacks normal keyboards does helps us a lot. Maybe the little box that projects the keyboard could have a little sound like a normal key press ever time you succesfully press a key!
Im not the most laser specialist person in the world, so can anyone explain how the heck this thing will identify which key im "pressing" on the table??
another question: is that table in the picture a kitchen table?:))

I guess the guy adapted a air conditioning system to his computer!:))
The tachometer would look great on this mod!
I used to play around with OS/2 a long time ago. It was wonderfull, fast, reliable, etc. I could even compile some basic unix softwares written in C on it! I used to had 2 servers running OS/2 and average uptime was far higher than windows NT on the same machine (dual boot).
Would a flexible CD be a good idea for having different shapes (such as squares, hearts, etc)??? Im worried about it being unbalanced because it would be played in high RPMs.
great idea including that cmos camera! i dont think its big deal such as 7 mpixels cameras available today but it sure adds lots of value to the handheld!!!
being a cmos camera i believe it will be able to easily achieve resolutions of 320x320! One main problem is ambient light as it has no built-in flash...
damn i want one of that!!:)))
Im just wondering if the 2 bit diference between 16 and 18 bit would make any significant or practical diference. They could make it 16 and save some battery maybe.
I have 4k colors on my ipaq and its fine for me. I believe that were not going to make any photoshop image manipulation on a handheld in order to have that many colors!!!

I still have Stunts on a disk and play it a lot! :D
That sexbot would be the most expensive prostitute in the whole world!!! =))
:)))
The voice stuff would not be hard to implement on a sexbot because its vocabulary would be restricted to few words like:
"Yes, yes, yes!!!"
"F*ck me! F*ck me! F*ck me!"
"Ah, ah, ah, ah!!!"
"Faster, faster, faster!!!"
I mean, a vocabulary of 10 words would be great and make the sexbot not as expensive as the 60k word bot!!!

why not make it 32 bit then?
