    I've seen a linux ppc system running Mol and inside mol running virtualpc and classic, inside virtualpc, running either virtualpc for windows or vmware which ran x86 linux running dosemu. The guy provided no explanation of what possessed him to do that.

  3. Re:Just a little plug... on Have You Fought Your ISP Over Bandwidth Limits? · · Score: 1

    Speakeasy is doing a good thing. They make all these people happy with their service and they tell others about it. I use Earthlink and so far they've been great, but if that changes, i'm gonna call speakeasy first. Other ISPs take note.

  6. Re:A prediction... on SCO UnixWare 7.1.3 Review · · Score: 1

    Many POS terminals are now running windows and i've even heard of some move to put linux on them. Oh and NetBSd runs on both the POS terminals and the reciepts, but ther's no official support (for either) yet, but a bsd might be a good replacement for SCO on them(POS terminals, not reciepts).

    Q3 ran fine on my oldskool radeon with no accelerated drivers through wine with no problem at all.

    If the iPod gets an smaller, it ould be too easy to lost, imo. Unless they leave the device the same size and put the extra space to use for the battery. That would be pretty sweet

    for the record, if the RIAA wasn't so evil, i would do the same (actually i'd probobly buy it off itunes), but not i don't feel like i can send my money to them. I do do that with DVDs as the MPAA isn't quite as evil.

  13. It's not powerpoint, it's projectors on PowerPoint Makes You Dumb · · Score: 1

    This is from a student's prospective, but i'm sure it applies to buisness as well

    The problem with powerpoint is not powerpoint itself, it's projectors. Projectors tend to be small and in a 4:3 ratio. This means that very little can appear on a slide. If we had nice widescreen projectors that displayed slides in blackboard sizes and could therefore fit much more data on there a once, viewers would understand it better becasue the report could be presented in a sort of outline form that could keep all the important stuff on the screen at once and lead to a more organized report. When my school went from destinations, which ca hold only 2 or 3 bullet points legible, to real projectors, which can hold 6, the presentation quality imporved somewhat, bt ot to the level of the whiteboard, which can hold an entire chapter or two. Also, powerpoint wastes a lot of space with unnecessary formatting, titles, and horizontal lines which often make text hard to read if a line or something falls under it.

    but it's not jsut ppt, smartboards have the same problems.
