Probably the best thing to do is to download the Handbook as a PDF (or a PS file) from here and use that to print out pieces that you want.
Being the person who wrote the review for Unleashed, I do think Unleashed is a good book, but it doesn't cover the software that I use daily like Postfix, Python and ProFTPD:(
I have The Complete FreeBSD (2nd and 3rd editions), FreeBSD Corp Net Guide, FreeBSD OS for PC book, FreeBSD Unleashed and both editions of the Handbook print edition. I prefer to use the soft version of the Handbook (primarily the HTML version).
I agree... the story/plot, the characters, the music and the ambiences in FF6 were great. I still think FF6 is the best Final Fantasy game released, overall. Graphics doesn't always make a game, a good game.
And VIA sued back stating that Intel violated VIA's patents with the the Pentium 4 bus as well as some other reasons. You can follow the entire suit trail over at The Inq
Try this: remove the heatsink and fan from your P4 and see how long it takes for it to catch fire.
The Pentium 4 has a built-in thermal sensor and protection mechanism that will automatically throttle down the speed of the processor when it reaches a certain temperature. The Athlon's didn't have the same protection mechanism until the Palimino core came out (i.e.: the first Athlon MPs, the Athlon XPs and the newer MPs). The motherboards would also need to support the new sensor/mechanism rather than relying on rather not-always-so-accurate-under-the-processor diode.
The other reason why the Pentium 4 isn't performing as well as it should is that it was built for fast streams of data into it's SSE2 execution units. The problem with the L2 cache isn't really that it is well undersized, it's that the x86 execution units suck altogether. The other problem is the 20-stage pipeline (which was required to ramp the speed up well beyond 1.1Ghz which they were stuck at with the 0.18-micron Pentium III) and they are still using the relatively poor x87 FPU units. The Athlon's FPU units blow away the x87 FPU units both the Pentium III and the Pentium 4 (the PIII and the P4 use almost the same FPU units).
The contract between Intel and Rambus was that Intel could not manufacture nor introduce any products that use newer and competitive memory technologies outside of Rambus RDRAM and SDRAM. DDR SDRAM was a newer memory technology and one that was aim right at RDRAM. That's why Intel sat on their hands on a product that would work with DDR SDRAM... that was until the i845 was introduced.
Intel and Rambus has since re-negotiated their contracts with each other and the "exclusive" clause has been tweaked, but not completely removed. Check out The Inq or The Register for more information about the previous and the recent contracts between the two.
The print editin of Daemon News has been going on for around a year now. The last issue was number 5 and I got it early November.
More information about the print magazine can be found here (or http://magazine.daemonnews.org/ for those who are afraid of goatse.cx links). The magazine has turned from every other month to quarterly.
To be honest, I think Microsoft is just trying to slide their tentacles around another area they try to crush their competition (i.e: Apple, Unix, Novell). I also think that Microsoft should also pay back their other customers since the businesses and home users also got shafted by the Microsoft monopoly.
The settlement agreement is way too little, too late. Microsoft should not be allowed to include their software on the computers that they donate.
I personally think that the DVD Videos themselves should be considered as films/video whereas DVD-ROM only discs should be software.
As far as DVD-Video discs with DVD-ROM content should be placed in whatever group the disc was primarily made for. Like the "Powerpuff Girls" DVD should be considered "film", although it's just a short-length cartoon with some "software" data on it since it's primary purpose isn't "software" related.
There is a 20GB version of the Creative Nomad Jukebox as well as the 20GB Archos Jukebox. There is a company that has 20-40GB hard drives for the Nomad Jukebox that you can install yourself or ship the unit to them and they will install the drive (as well as transfer the data to the new drive) for you.
Earlier steps in the multi-CPU direction included the 8-way DEC Alpha (killed in the merger with HP?) and a little National Semiconductor product for embedded systems with two very modest CPUs on a chip.
The IP for Alpha is now in the hands of Intel rather than Compaq (or Hewlett Paqard). I'm not sure if Intel will assimilate the technology into their IA-64 processors, release it as a high-end EV7 processor, or just kill it altogether.
In Oregon and a couple of other states have a "Do-Not-Call" law that get fined for each unsolicited calls and some states require that the phone number list is made available to the state or to the public. Here's an article (Google cached) about the No-Call registry and provides some background/information about it. To get on the list (at least in Oregon), it's $6 for the first year and $3/year after that.
The battery life of a laptop also depends on the display (the brightness, size and type), how long the hard drive stays spinning, how much you use the removable drives (ie: CD-ROM, DVD-ROM) and any other components that are active.
Transmeta's claims have been shot down several times because Transmeta doesn't have control over the power consumptions of the parts outside of the processor and the chipset.
The Athlon XP is the official name for the desktop Palimino version of the Athlon. In essence, the XP and the MP are the same processors, but I'm not sure if AMD has validated the XP processors for dual-processor use yet.

Ace's Hardware and Real World Tech have great discussions and articles on the downfalls of the Pentium 4 processor.

I thought it would be a Parrot that can do a lot of small talking with a curled feather on its head?
OregonLive.com is the online version of the news paper and news portal. Oregonian.com is just the corporate site.

Yup... I remembered that. Kind of funny how technology passes around and gets back to the hands of the co-owner of the company that sold it off :)
The only problem is if the fradulent seller is using a stolen credit card...
Oops... walk not work... silly me
At least I don't have to work over to pick it up :)
Forgot to include the link to the "No Call" website for Oregon. The site is www.ornocall.com

The good ol' guys at [H]ard|OCP have a review of the Athlon XP as well. It can be found here.
Don't forget NetBSD :)
