You've obviously never been out on a golf course...
The pixel shading is incredible, you can't imagine how many polygons it takes to render... Not to mention, I can get over 180 fps (although that takes some overclocking and beer^H^H^H^Hwatercooling)
And what really makes VirtualCenter stand out is that VMware has bundled their VMotion product with it.
VMotion is the ability to migrate running virtual machines from one physical server to another. It's roughly the equivalent of Mosix for VMs.
And it works across ESX versions, so there is no VM downtime when we need to patch our VMware farm. And it works across (some) hardware platforms, so we can upgrade our VMware farm from 2-way servers to 8-way servers, again with no downtime.
To reset all system settings to the factory defaults, and delete all saved numbers in memory, vigorously shake the phone in all directions. Just like an Etch-A-Sketch.
It's like if someone was getting mauled by a dog, and another person ran over and killed the dog to save the person, and the headline ran: Man Beats Puppy To Death
On slashdot, that headline would read "Windows User Beats Puppy To Death".
Which would be reposted next week as "Windows Beats Puppy To Death", and next month as "New Independant(TM) Study Says Windows Beats Puppies".
"Due to our current ongoing lawsuits (which, admittedly, we're not so sure was a good idea in the first place anymore) SCO can only
offer a limited money back guarantee of 3 days from the intial purchase date at this time.
" Initial purchase date means when the order is received by SCO. Allow 4-6 weeks for delivery.
" Alternatively, you can opt for Our Lifetime* Guarentee for an additional cost of $699."
--Joe * Our Lifetime Guarentee refers to the lifetime of the company.
Such crap. It's like those blatantly false microsoft ads where they show microsoft office as a wonderful beautiful thing. I've worked with office for years, and the only time I danced through my office with a newly printed office document involved a printer incompatibility, a long project, and way too much coffee.
You're getting the wrong message from that ad. What it's actually saying is that if you use Microsoft Office, you'll look like an idiot, even when it does (sometimes) print your document correctly.

No, it's "Running Forge EKS". The new Enterprise Kde Suite, downloaded from sf.net.
Unfortunately, your hard drive will fail this afternoon. It will be a smouldering lump of plastic when you get home. If you're lucky, it won't have caught your tape drive on fire too.
Lindows gives you the product as soon as the claim is submitted (or at least puts it in their shipping system). The user may get their reward before the claim is processed (and appealed, etc)
But anyway,
If MS is right, then Lindows will be out the cost of their "LindowsOS CD", a couple of StarOffice CDs, and any PCs they have given away. MS will have fewer claimants, and will have to give a larger voucher to california schools.
If MS is wrong, then Lindows will be able to get a shedload of money from MS by redeeming the vouchers.
If you have hold the copyright on any GPL code that SCO is distributing, sue SCO. They have stated that they do not intend to be bound by the GPL; their actions show that they do not plan to adhere to the terms of the GPL. It is reasonable to believe that they intend to violate the license (indeed, I think they have already). I think it would be reasonable to seek an injunction against SCO to prevent them from redistributing your code unless they agree that the GPL is valid and they are bound by it.
Would this be a good point in the process to bring the DMCA takedown option?
A C&D letter to SCO's upstream provider notifying them of "unauthorized distribution of copyrighted material" should knock SCO off the 'net for a while.

And if you ever plan to write the Great American Novel, make sure you never read any books, magazines, websites, or other written work.
And if you ever plan to write music, never listen to any CDs or recorded music from any other musician.

Whaddaya mean easy? Do you have any idea how annoying it is to have to say that N-word every time somebody thinks they're cute?
Of course, we can't complain to much. At least we don't have to deal with crackers... like those poor curved-beak bastard parrots.
