It's not like they were converted to the bathing type after seeing EPIII, they normally don't shower but it's the release of a star wars flick that brings them out of their basements and on to our streets.
Except Tyan's are usually more expensive than an Asus or Abit speced out with the same core logic. They have a reputation just under supermicro and most retailers put a premium on it.
Let's be honest here, the part that failed on the submitters board wasn't the southbridge chip which handles the LAN, ATA, Audio, etc, it was probably a power regulator or capacitor up around the processor, which happens to even the best of boards (Everyone rememebr the 2000/2001 cap blowouts that abit went through, I lost a great SA6R to that, but they RMA'ed a ST6R that got a PIII-S 1.4 last year seeing as it is still my primary workstation.)
Straying OT, but those hunters pay a large amount of taxes to pay for land they can't hunt on. Gun and Ammo taxes and Hunting licenses fund your state and Federal parks systems, but it is rare you are allowed to hunt in those areas. The duck (and other waterfowl stamps) fund shore and wetland creation/rehabilitation programs.
I think it is more than fair to have someone familiar with what it takes to maintain healthy habitats for game running the show at a Fish and Wildlife commission.
Their authority gets struck down and cofirmed in a piecemeal fashion. IIRC, the love canal dumpers sued to remove EPA oversight over cleanup operations claiming that NY state's environmental authorities had jurisdiction, not the Federal EPA. EPA was confirmed to have jurisdiction in the LC case, but that doesn't mean they have Constitutionally granted authority to run roughshod over every man, woman, and child in the US.
The Cuecat bar code reader disappeared quickly from radio shacks (they were free) in major markets after the first couple of stories on/. about how they could be hacked into more useful bar code readers.
White House travel office, Iran-Contra, Watergate, Tonkin. Yeah, US administrations has never knowingly destroyed information. I'm drawing a blank on what the current Bush admin has done though, Sandy Berger was the last person to attempt document destruction, but he was a Clinton appointee.
Of course world politics have made a mess of say, the U.S. Virgin Islands, you drive on the left hand side of the road, but in American (Left hand drive) cars.
You've never seen the "shoot here to destroy" stickers that Uncle sam sticks on his computers, usually they are just slightly off center of the hard drive spindles, not sure how a multi-disk box gets tagged, but its probably in a similar manner.
Remember that P-3 that landed in chicom airspace back in 2000/2001, supposedly hammers were used to beat the interior of that bird all to hell when the pilot realized they weren't going to make it to a safe landing area.
They need to make every girl entering puberty watch one live, with no drugs, we wouldn't have a teen pregnancy problem in this country if they could see that miracle.
Have you ever watched a natural childbirth, unless it is your own flesh and blood (and genes) its hard to appreciate the beauty in it, I don't care if it is Natalie Portman.
Are they going to throw their money under a matress? Hell no, they are going to either save it in a bank, which in turn gets lent out to people to buy things, or invest in a company which makes things, hires people to make those widgets, and sells those widgets to people. Like I said, broadening the tax base. Even if they invest in municipal bonds, that still is going to either infrastructure (roads, utilities, public safety, etc) or some welfare program (libraries, schools, homeless shelter, etc)
Check out fairtax.org for a rebuttal, basically the price of goods should balance out under fairtax considering the corporate taxes are already factored into the price of the goods you buy (including employer contributions into SS, unemployment, medicare/medicaid). When you remove the compliance costs for the fed income tax and the ability to tax the black and gray market economies (When your neighborhood crack dealer buys a car, it gets taxed, as opposed to him claiming no income for a year), we should see (slightly) cheaper goods and lower overall taxes (wider, more stable tax base to draw from).
Chips, probably not, but different cores, that is a possibility. Sun/Fujitsu is talking about having a TCP offload engine as a core in some of their new multi-core procs. Encryption cores to replace those CryptoSwift PCI cards would be next, beyond that graphics, physics, and sound cores. All in a single package, a shared cache pool between them would mean extremely low latencies. timing/sync errors would be minimized, with hypertransport or PCI-E interconnects to the physical devices to implement the video/sound connectors.
But then we get back to a closed, single source for the programing language, nearly as bad as an activex solution. The availability of a java runtime on all web capable platforms, especially in default installs, is also up in the air. Most OSes ship with a browser that is nearly SVG capable, and the framework for enabling it is there in Mozilla, not sure about IE, KHTML, and Opera, but I'm confident if SVG could gain a toehold we would see support, either by plugin or natively.
No need to set up CAWG, we have SVG. Unfortunately, the only way to use it with Mozilla based browsers is non-standard builds or even worse, an adobe plugin. Basic javascript and xhtml to handle anything that flash or shockwave can do, no buggy (or non existant) players.
Were they actually barred from voting? You show up at the polls, but are told flat out they can't vote? You should know if you are a convicted felon, and there is a definite appeals process if your name is wrongly added to the list. The NAACP suit was not about restoring voting rights to those human defendants, it was attempt to mudsling at Harris and DBT/Choicepoint.
I'm still waiting on evidence of a wrongly barred voter, please respond if you find one.
As a local ISP sysadmin, we try, but when your customers can jump ship to the national carriers that will keep you no matter how infected your machine is, we risk loosing our asses if we try to do the right thing.
I'm a small government type, but we need a "Computer Centers for Disease Control", hard and fast quarantine protocols for the worst offenders out there. It would have to be a shared registry of "banned" mac adresses, and it would be costly.
I wonder why the big hosting providers don't use IIS, would it be the prohibitive hardware and software costs, or the known lax security proceedures at MSFT.
Prove it, I've heard this claim since the 2000 election, but have yet to see one person who was wrongly barred from voting in Florida because of the felon list. Surely in the last 4.5 years the democrat establishment could have found one instance where this happened, proving that the 2000 election really was stolen. Until they come forward with bona-fide evidence, quit trolling.
Each state has provisons for restoring all civil rights (I know a county magistrate who served a 5 year strech for assault back in the 80's). Meet the criteria for having your rights restored by each state and you can vote. Until then, the federal government has no right to dictate to states as to who can vote (Other than the obvious, constitutionally granted ones, women, blacks, 18+).

Hardware manufacturers are in China. They don't have much of an influence on US policies
Tell that to Wen Ho Lee and Al Gore.

Umm, netscape 8 is based on Firefox/Thunderbird.
If the goods are sold in the US, we still get the taxes.

And your evidence is?

Then do it with a constitutional amendment, just as was done in previous cases where voting rights were extended to new parties.
