  1. And I care why? on WinFS to be available in WinXP · · Score: 0, Troll

    Why is this so important?

  2. SCO group's Technical knowledge? on SCO Berates Linus' Approach To Kernel Contributions · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Well if the SCO group had ANY technical knowledge in their company I might care. However I rank their comments below pond scum's. Heck even Microsoft knows more than the SCO group.

  3. Re:Longevity? on South Pole to Get Highway · · Score: 1

    Sorry it does not work that way. Geo-Sync's are parked in to orbits over the equator.

  4. Try checking your facts. on An Unbiased Analysis of Gun Crime vs. Gun Control? · · Score: 1

    >Gun crimes will happen LESS when guns are outlawed.

    >See Europe, in which all countries (AFAIK) have severly limited or banned gun ownership for non-professionals and
    >death by weapons is far less common than in North-America and the States in particular.

    Really? You should look at England where since the total ban the crime rate has skyrocketed. Infact the per capita rate of crimes involing guns is higher than in the states.

    Then how about the Swiss nearly every household has a full auto gun. This is because every of age male is in the reservers. They have very low crime rates.

    etc.

  5. Re:Well duh on Win2k Cheaper than Linux · · Score: 1

    Most every Unix flavor including Linux has a version of dump.

  6. Re:75 km/h is fine( For the sidewalk) on 239 MPG Car · · Score: 1

    You don't drive that far to work then. Most people take the Freeways to work. That usally requires 100km/hr plus speeds.

  7. Priceline Supercomputer on Ask William Shatner · · Score: 1

    Why can't you show a real supercomputer in the PRiiceline commercials instead of the heap of drain pipe and chrismas lights?

  8. Re:Ok, BUT on Sun To Continue To Go After Microsoft · · Score: 1

    You are forgetting about the Non-Discloser agreements they forced some customers to sign before they would fix the problem, and the Directive to the CE's to tell the client that the problem was somthing else and not the E-cache.

  9. Ok, BUT on Sun To Continue To Go After Microsoft · · Score: 4, Insightful

    As a Solaris Admin, (and HP-UX and Linux,) I can apreciate what Windoze has done. HOWEVER, I must say that SUN has done some underhanded move itself. Anyone else remember the little e-cache issue.

  10. Re:dude on When Shipping the Big Iron...? · · Score: 1

    You are wrong.

    One T3E can blow away a Xeon. However the T3E was Blown away back in the late 90's By ASCI Red using 9632 Pentium processors. Don't believe it? Check out the Nov. 1999 supercomputer list at http://www.top500.org.

    Hint: It is Number one.

  11. System Admin on Computer Science vs. Computer Engineering? · · Score: 1

    Become a Sys Admin.

  12. Re:Battle bots at a whole new level on Linux Powered Robots · · Score: 1

    Sorry they thought of that already. In the rules of battle botts it forbids the use of Electronic Warfare. I am sure that they would include hacking in that description.

  13. Re:To hack or not to hack.... on Boycott of Music Industry's Hacker Challenge Urged · · Score: 1

    Umm... If you do the math you will see that they want to pay a consulting firm the hourly bill rate per person. Lets see $10,000 / 40 hour work week = $250.00 per hour for one person.
    Then they get the added bonus of not paying the runners up!

    Please I get payed more than $250 as a consultant and I don't have to soil myself to do it.

  14. Re:The last time MS tried this on Hotmail about to collapse under load · · Score: 1

    This AC here should be at -2 for not knowing his facts. I remember when it happened and laughing my a$$ off!

  15. Wyse techs have a WinDoze bias on Wyse Ditches Linux For WinCE · · Score: 1

    We tried both versions of the Wyse thin client ( WinCE and Linux) at work. I over heard one of the Wyse techs say to his boss, that they were having trouble with the Linux version because " it does not have a complete TCP/IP stack like Windows has." !!!!!!
