The hoax believers don't actually want to be proven wrong. There's quite a bit of profit to be made off of other peoples stupidity. Even if we tried to take them to the moon, they would refuse, saying we were trying to get rid of them/they were brainwashed/something. Basically, any evidence you may have was faked by the Evil NASA, up to and including the laws of physics.

About $40-50 a month, through SBC. I'm close enough to the station that I can get speeds > 1 mbit.
Trying to connect this with terrorism is just silly. If the problem is internet access, couldn't terrorists just go outside of the US and attack from there?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't athlons need better heatsinks? Either way, the heatsink is probably a large part of the 34 dollar difference. If you included a heatsink in the price of the 2600, the prices would be about the same.

Technically, it's a 133mhz FSB that they quadruple for some reason, while AMD's is a 200mhz FSB that they double for some reason.
I don't think they had doughnuts in ancient Greece.
How do you pronounce Quaoar?
8 shades of gray is only 2^3, or three bits. There are 256 possible states in one byte.
That can't be true, because Al Gore invented the X-Box!
This isn't a SOVIET RUSSIA joke, is it?
I wonder if there will be hoax theories about this one before it launches. That would be something to see. I wonder what they would use for 'proof'?

And this is a bad thing how? If windows becomes open-source, and all the bugs are worked out, then I for one would pay for it.
I can usually tell the difference. DivX rips usually look something like a slightly compressed jpeg image.

That sounds like a great way to set fire to your house.
I guess you can chalk it up to the general anti-windows bias. Call Windows tools crap, and you can almost guarantee getting modded up.
Hang on, they tried that, didn't they?
I've noticed a few ants around my computer, but I thought they just came for the warmth.
...it would take many millions of years to do that. Some distributed computing efforts actually have had millions of years of computer time.

..."the whole system becomes essentially a short range radio." Does this mean it would be possible to do this wirelessly?
Not so much evil as greed, I think. In my experience, people rarely do things just to harm another person. There's always some personal gain in it.
If I'm not mistaken, this is the case.
On the other hand, if Einstein had made pinball games, we woundn't have so many nukes. Bad example to pick.
They should make discs with one side + and one side -. However, the problem would be telling the sides apart, as well as labeling.
Just out of curiosity, how does this affect my domain?
