If the OS scheduler only know about one core, how in the world would it ever know to set two threads in the execute state simultaniously to take advantage of the extra horsepower. This article is lacking any substantial detail.
I belive the reason they are not allowing Pro/Home users to even stream media to their 360 without MCE is to encourage people to upgrade to any verison of Vista which will support the 360 out of the box.
This statement is not correct. The NES emulator actually runs on the Windows Media Center computer that you have attached to your network. The 360 basically maintains a Remote Desktop Connection to it. This is how most MCE apps were meant to be written.
I dont' know why anyone who went through a true Computer Science program would ever want to be in IT. If you went through your CS degree and enjoyed it, you want to be writing real software, not managing servers and writing scripts.
I would say that word of mouth is the most important issue when it comes to how successful a game will be. Sure some games like Doom III and Halo don't really need work of mouth, but take Snood for example. As any recenet college grad knows, that game is adicting, and you don't find out about if from websites or commercials. It is your peers that expose you too it.
Less market share. Windows is a much more apetizing market. Especially since most users wouldn't know if they had a trojan in the first place.
How many people actually renew thier subscriptions with Norton or NA?
Triangulating the location of a wireless access point is no small task even if it is stationary, and you have 3 point of reference.
However combinting 2 points of reference with signal strength from each point should make the job possible, assuming there is not too much interference from external sources. The hard part will be trying to keep track of how your experimental locations map up to location of persons who could be carrying the access point.
Maybe you could just look for someone with an antenna sticking out of thier backpack!
XML is excellent for data exchange and providing an open standard for interoperability. It provides a way to present data that can be used in software desgined by different vendors and even on different architectures.
However it does have it's downfall, and that is that it is wordy and overly inefficent. Any programmer worth what he is being paid, knows that you don't represent your data internally by XML. When your program starts you parse the XML into a nice data structure that can be quickly accessed and modified. When the program closes you convert the data structure back to XML and save it.
Assuming this is not Vaporware, I wonder if they are going to implement a BSOD into thier kernel module for every time thier WES or whatever it's called crashes!
Just a little FYI on the slot machines actually work. Many people have the misconception that each time you pull the lever the slot machine moves onto it's next random number in line. Therefore it is possible for someone to "steal" someonelse's jackpot by pulling the lever right before them. The way slots actually work is while they are sitting idle, thier random number generator is actually pumping through numbers like crazy. It only stops when someone pulls the lever, and this is the number chosen for that particular pull. This means it is possible to miss a big jackpot by a fraction of a second.
I goto umass and we just setup a campus wide wireless network here, that is a good system because it isn't based on easily spoofable MAC addresses.
What we do is to use not WEP key, but we assign unroutable IP addresses to network cards via DHCP. Then we have a VPN concentrator that has an address in that unroutable space and in routable space. To get out to the internet you need to authenticate youself via the VPN server>

Since windows 200 you could include third party software using SysPrep. The only difference is the Vista image is hardware independent.

The rules state no directional antennae.
