You're right there were probably some small outlets that found this as well, but I have been watching the news all afternoon, and neither Bloomberg, Reuters, Google, or CNBC mentioned the release. They would all have trumped that the SRPFJ was approved, with two small conditions. And more or less Microsoft won the case. Their stock should jump after the public relase of the data, I'll bet some/.er made some money on this.
Ours doesn't remove anything in the zip file if the zip extention is changed. Although the.exes in the archive do get removed even if they are renamed.
Personally for my own AA needs I prefer a nice stout or white ale, but there certainly isn't anything wrong with Tanqueray. In my reference to the PC chips, I was actually remembering one of several articles that tried to compare the X-box to the GeForce line that were so popular around the launch. I don't actually own one yet, I am planning to pick up one of the bundles with the two games and small controller after I have all the new car expenses under control.
They actually have a cadre of people who ensure that animals are not harmed in the making of those motion pictures. I think almost all US pictures carry that disclaimer, but I don't pay enough attention to the indies to know for sure. It began after several horses died in the making of some old westerns. Following that one of the big animal organizations, not PETA, but more like the kennel club, began a movement to greatly reduce animal risks in movies. Hollywood is pretty careful in bee scenes because there are pretty well defined rules about what endangerment can take place before you don't get to use the tag line.
They cost significantly more to manufacture than the graphics subsystems in a console, for several reasons. First, due to lower sales figures. I have seen some market share data that suggested that high end cards (priced above 300 USD) have less than 1% of the market, but I don't know if that is revenue or units, if its units that is only about 1 million chips/year, its even less if dollars. One design will go into many consoles (Sony recently announced that sales of PS 2s reached 40 million) over a very long period of time, so you can spread your fixed costs over quite a few more chips. Also, consoles are used at very low resolutions so they are not at technically rigorus as PC cards. I think the XBox video system is similar in fill rates to a Gforce 4 MX, but has better AA. Even a three year old card will play new games pretty well at 640x480. The cards do have pretty rigorous AA especially the X-Box.
Finally, Sony and Microsoft are bigger buyers than you and I are, and they get lower prices for buying in volume.
The shareholders stopped crying out in pain a long time ago. K-Mart declared bankruptcy quite a while ago, this is mostly just creditors haggling over who gets what, like ravens and some roadkill. Eventually the company will complete reorganization, with new owners, and will be ready to try to undercut Wal-mart again.
Doesn't Microsoft, for determining license pricing, count Hyperthreading P4s as two CPUs? And if so, wouldn't the 2 P4 Xeons cost the same as 4 PIII Xeons?
In that market are the cad tablets, we found a few in the surplus pile, and used them as a mouse for a while. It worked pretty well, but required a pretty large pad to register a signal. It used a coil to locate itself on I assume a grid below the pad. We didn't have drivers that would allow you to use all the neat programmable features, but what was useable rocked, now I just need a smaller one for my desk.
On a side note, do those 3d "spaceballs" work for anything besides cad, I always thought having one of those would look cool for general computer work.
Sugar is one of the worst barriers in the states, although it is a quota rather than a tax. I think there is or was a pretty steep duty on V-8 engines, it might have been lifted or reduced, but that is why there were never many big SUVs from Japan. The best reason to avoid tarrifs is that they are a pretty inefficiant way to raise revenues, they create large imbalances in the price of goods for a relatively small amount of tax revenues. They happen because the benefits flow to a relatively small group of producers, and the costs are passed on to a large group of consumers. For example in the sugar quota, which is older so there are more studies about the costs and benefits, I believe that it only costs each person in the country a few dollars each. However, millions go to each sugar beet or cane farmer, so they are more motivated to work to keep the quota than the few people who are willing to organize just to save a few dollars a year.
I think the $99 price is for uni and two processor SPARC desktop machine, although that could be for the media kit, and the license is free if you can dig up the disks yourself. I believe the price starts at $249 for up to two processor servers, and increases as you increase processors. If you still have Solaris 8 CDs, the old free license for anything up to 8 processors still applies, but you can't download the isos from Sun. They might still be available on some of the less checked mirrors.
I saw an article on the canning of the airphones by Delta and Northwest, and they mentioned that the rates were $2.99 initiation fee and $7.99 per minute! I don't know if this fee varies from airline to air line, but its probably fairly similar.
Two words--Lease return. 0% finanicing is killing the market prices for used cars, which aren't subsidized. You can get some sweet deals on a nearly new car from almost all the auto companies. If you are willing to drive something that is three years old or so, that $45,000 MB will probably be less than half the price of new.
And the first month they charge you $20 for the game and "free" month. I wish I'd known I would have picked up a clearance one in the store for a paper manual. I think they had a map as well. The game is pretty fun though.
These terms arose because of the multiple definitions of the word free in english. Free as in beer is used to classify anything that you don't have to pay for to use. Any sort of freeware would count as this. With the GPL (and other public licenses), software was also free, not just in the $ sense, but you were allowed to modify it. Because liberty software sounds like a company, free softwarewas reused, but to differentiate it the term is free as in speech. Meaning you are free to modify it. Personally I like the method of terming modifyable software libre and freely usable software gratis from Spanish. You can check the jargon file, or probably e2 to find more info on who originated the terms, and read more about each.
You have to realize that Bloomberg's specialty is not quality journalism, the WSJ beats them hands down, and they probably all know that. What make Mike a billionare, is that his service provides quantity journalism. That story was probably one of 500 published on Microsoft today. Not all of them were written by Bloomberg's staff, but quite a few were, and they do this for almost every company out there. This isn't an information service for acidemics, it provides near instantanous information for large investors who might just trade a million or more shares on the info provided.
Your joke reminds me of the ancient Egyptian symbol for a large number. It was a man with his arms upraised as if saying it's incomprehensible. I think it was used for numbers larger than 1000 or 1000000.
Alright, autos do get plenty of protetion from imports, but I would guess that over the history of the country train service has recieved more, they were parceled out large chunks of land in exchange for building their rail lines. I think its just that most of the subsidies for autos and air service are quite recent, while the rail subsidies occured many years ago. I'll go check snopes now, thaks for the info.
Becuase one of the main advantages America does have is the most liquid capital markets in the world. If by investing $5 bn to $10 billion to build an clean, efficient, fast rail line would make $1-$2 billion a year in profit for investors, we would have one already. Look at all the investment in the long distance phone networks over the past 5 years. Well over $200 billion was invested. Now it will be a few years before the companies will use all of it. But consumers should enjoy cheap long distance for the forseeable future. One problem with private infastructure funding is that it is difficult to capture the gains from infastructure, unless your have a monopoly, as the phone and power grids show, but since not even a monopoly provider of rail service, Amtrak, can make a profit in the US. I doubt private funding would make a profit either.
Air traffic controllers are federal employees. I think he threatened to or actually fired the ones who went on strike. I think I read that Nixon was the last president to envoke Taft-Hartley, before the dockworkers strike.

It surprises me when I see them, but they even work out here in Montana. I am surprised that they aren't on more rooftops in warmer climates.

What I have often wondered about Canadian media is how did the Canadian National Broadcasting Company (CNBC) become the US stock market channel?

Would this be very diferent from the more skill based games at an online casino. Say a sports bookie or blackjack, as opposed to slots or roulette.

You know you would license it if they offered a better sub. ; P
I prefer a local place called Java Bob's or better than a sub, the gyro place, but there isn't much better than Quizno's for a good mass market sub.
