Note that the article mentioned that this performance increase was gained with only a 5% increase in die size. Much better than 2 entire procs (not to mention heat dissipation problems)
I would agree that a SMP system holds up well. I run 2x 200MHz Pentium Pro, and it gives solid performance as a desktop. I wonder if this tech would allow a slower clock speed chip, thus cooler, that still exhibited good performance. It seems like a good idea for laptops, etc.
What would happen if someone really tried to call you?? Would people get mad if you were talking to someone on you cellphone during a...cellphone concert??
Technically, without warning. But the first reply was not completely accurate. Unless you are running this script as root (running a script that you don't know what it does is asking for trouble) it would only remove everything in your personal directory (or any other places you had write access). On a well set up system, the damage would only be to your own files -- and it's what you deserve if you just do things without knowing what you are doing.
Hating to see the uninformed make the statement "unix sucks".
This post sounds like the rantings of a brainwashed M$ slave. I suggest that you shelve your bigoted opinions and maybe give open source a try. No one asks you to like it, but give it a try before you spout off at the mouth about what you don't understand!

Weird thoughts ebb and flow in a mind this empty.
Look at all the computers sitting in a pile (at the linked site). What a waste! Those should be in a beowulf cluster!
I know, I know, it just had to be said...

-keep the faith, Mozilla 1.0 is almost here
finishing the math:
at 3min. per song, + 3second leader in between...
roughly 202 days of music straight through!
that's not too shabby, I just want to know how you will download that much music.
