Next RedHat definitely should kill -9 (ha, ha!) the command line. Microsoft finally gave up DOS when Windows 2000 came out. I'm suprised that RedHat hasn't migrated away from...whatever its version of DOS is called (Bash, I think?) But maybe this is planned for a future release?
Finally Linux needs games! RedHat will never be successful in the home without games. They should also tell M$ to release a version of Office for Linux too. And Internet Explorer!
I've heard many good things about the McIntosh recently, and my family and I decided we needed to buy a new computer to replace our old Windows machine. Having heard of its ease of use, we decided to go the McIntosh route. We recently purchased an 800 mHz G4, with OSX. We thought we were getting a good deal. But unfortunately things turned out quite different.
Upon putting together the system we discovered that our mouse appeared the be broken. Although it wasn't cracked or shattered, it only had one button. When I spoke with our McIntosh dealer, we were told that the upgrade to a real two-button mouse would require more money. Apparently the mice with one button were only a "trial version" of the hardware. I feel that this is a very deceptive practice on Apple's part, and have written a letter to the Better Business Bureau to protest this. I felt as though I'd bought a car but to make it go past 35mph we'd have to pay more money!
Rather than pay the exhorbitant sum of money for a real mouse, I went to CompUSA and bought one out of my own pocket.
Strike one for McIntosh!
Secondly, one of the reasons that we went with McIntosh is because its new OS was based on the Linux kernel. Since my company uses Linux heavily (and its an OS I'm highly familiar with) I thought it would be nice to be able to run my work applications at home. Imagine my shock upon hearing that McIntosh was actually based on an incompatible fork of Linux - a fork known as BSD. Since our computers at work ran Linux - and not BSD - it was clear that I'd be unable to compile them on my Apple! Strike two for McIntosh.
The final straw came last night. I received an email from a friend alerting me to numerous holes in Microsoft's Internet Explorer. When I went to MS' home page to download a patch (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/downlo ads/cri tical/q321232/default.asp), I was stunned to see this patch only applies to Windows machines! Given the tiny user base of McIntosh, apparently software patches aren't made frequently - if at all - for McIntosh. I refuse to use an OS that is as ridden with holes as swiss cheese. Thus I'm going to be returning my McIntosh and purchasing a Windows XP box.
I hope this message reaches someone at McIntosh headquarters. Maybe their CEO, Steve Ballmer(?) will get this and fix their business practices. Until such changes are made, however, I fear that McIntosh will continue to be a bit player in the computer world.
Recently I've had a chance to do some web design with PHP. Previously I'd used Perl because I'd heard from many people that Perl was the end all and be all of scripting languages for the web. Imagine my suprise to discover that PHP was vastly superior! I know this is a bold statement, but I have solid arguements to support it.
Before I begin, let me just clarify something. I'm not arguing that PHP is better than Perl in all cases. There is certainly still a use for Perl. Also, PHP isn't perfect but it does manage to fix many of the shortcomings I've had with Perl. Here are a few of the things I've noticed about PHP. Finally, I'm not the most talented Perl programmer out there. I generally prefer to use the vastly superior Python, but can use Perl if I have to.
* Ease of use. After about a day I had an excellent understanding of both PHP and SQL. I was able to get a stable, useable and presentable website up within 24 hours of reading the basics of PHP. Learning Perl took me weeks and I'm still not even as good with it as I am with PHP. I would definitely not recommend anyone new to programming begin with Perl.
* The OO of PHP is excellent. In my experience, it rivals Smalltalk. We all know that Perl's OO still needs work (whether or not OO is all that great is another discussion.) Hopefully Perl will be patched up so it supports such must-have OO features like introspection, reflection, self-replication and ontological data-points.
* Outstanding database support. PHP supports virtually every DB under the sun (although Berkeley DB is missing, oddly enough.) Perl seems limited to MySQL and PostgreSQL, and its really a kludge for the later. I've heard that this will be fixed in upcoming versions of Perl though.
* Speed. PHP is one of the fastest languages I've ever used. While it won't be replacing assembly or C, its definitely faster than Perl in almost every case, particularly in regex which has long been Perl's strongest point. I'm sure there are cases where Perl is equal to PHP, but I can't think of any at the moment.
* Portability. I can take PHP code off my Linux box and plop it onto an IIS server, or even one of those new Macintosh servers and have it run without having to change a single line of code. Try doing this with Perl! Its as though it was written in assembly, Perl requires that much rewriting.
* Graphics. PHP comes with a nice little graphics library. While I wouldn't use its to code the new Doom (VB would be a better choice) its adequate for most web pages, and should be considered as a substitute for Flash for certain things. Perl lacks a graphics library of any kind.
* Data Structures. Under PHP you can create any type of datastructure you need: Linked lists, binary trees, hash tables, queues, inverse Reiser-biased recursion trees, etc. Under Perl you're extremely limited in what you can do. This is because Perl isn't OO (so you can't create Node classes, for example, usefull in a linked list) and because it lacks pointers. Some of you may notice that PHP lacks pointers, but look deeper! Behind the scenes, hidden from the user pointers are used. Because of this, PHP can support complex data structures.
Again this is just my experience. I don't mean to offend any Perl coders because Perl was an excellent language. However, in certain cases it may behoove one to write the back end in PHP instead of Perl.

Since posters are mostly experts on the subject, I decided to ask one of civilization's ancient mysteries to the pioneering minds in the world of deviant homosexuality: Slashdot users.
WHICH IS *LESS* GAY?
Which do you think is homosexual to a lesser degree, recieving a blowjob from a man or being fucked in the ass by a woman with a strapon?
A sad day in the lives of hillbillys everywhere. Buddy Ebsen, the loose-limbed Broadway dancer who achieved stardom and riches in the television series "The Beverly Hillbillies" and "Barnaby Jones," has died, a hospital official said Monday. There were no further details. He will be missed.
Just like the rest of your pathetic life, one long list of failures.

Once again, Intel has decided to turn up the heat on their arch rival, AMD. In a sort of digital ying-yang, the battle for Performance Desktop and Workstation Processor leadership, presses on relentlessly. Like opposite yet mutual compliments, Intel releases the 3GHz P4 with 800MHz system bus and AMD lets fly with the Athlon XP 3200+. It's almost like nature intended it to be, isn't it? As Intel and AMD duke it out, in an effort to out class the competition, the end user community enjoys yet another incremental performance enhancement. Not to mention a nice cost reduction usually comes along, with what was formerly high end product now mainstream, due to these brisk product maturity cycles.
Our last look at AMD's latest product left us questioning AMD's performance rating somewhat. Although AMD's new Athlon XP 3200+ branding logically claims to have significantly better performance than the 3.0GHz P4, our testing showed that it was about on par with Intel's latest 3GHz chip, winning some and losing some, in various rounds of testing of our benchmark suites. This is the risk AMD runs, branding a product relative to performance, rather than an easily understood clock speed figure. Intel's approach however, on this new product release of the 3.2GHz P4 is pretty straight forward. It doesn't take a degree in Quantum Physics to understand that this new Pentium 4 is a full 1GHz faster that AMD's fastest Barton core at 2.2GHz for the Athlon XP 3200+.
However, the performance picture behind the clock speed, is the story that many of you come here to find out and that's what we'll aim to deliver for you today. At 3.2GHz, the new Pentium 4 is running a full 45% faster clock speed than an Athlon XP 3200+ at 2.2GHz. This is perhaps an impressive data-point and a tribute to Intel's ability to scale the P4 core to amazing new heights. On the other hand, as AMD likes to point out, it's not always about the MHz but how efficient a processor is within each clock cycle. We'll roll up our sleeves for you here and give you the straight scoop on that data-point as well.
Specifications of the Pentium 4 3.2GHz Processor Another notch closer to the 4GHz mark
Clock Speed 5.0GHz 420MHz "Quad Pumped" Front Side Bus Hyperthreading Technology for increased performance in Multi-tasking and Multi-threaded applications.56 micron manufacturing process 1024K on chip, Full Speed L2 Cache Rapid Execution Engine - ALU clocked at 2X frequency of core 256bit Floating Point/Multimedia unit "Hyper Pipelined" Technology for extremely high clock speeds Intel "NetBurst" micro-architecture Supported by the Intel® i875P and i865G chipsets, with Hyperthreading support Internet Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 Intel® MMXâ media enhancement technology Memory cacheability up to 4 GB of addressable memory space and system memory scalability up to 64 GB of physical memory Support for uni-processor designs 1.55V operating voltage range
Pentium 4.13 Micron Die
With 512K of full speed on chip L2 cache, an 800MHz Quad Pumped Front Side Bus, Hyperthreading, and 1.55V operating voltage, not much has changed for the new 3.2GHz Pentium 4, with the minor exception of an additional 200MHz in clock speed. In the die image on the right, you'll notice a couple of large rectangular dark grid regions on the right hand side of the die. These are the two banks of L2 cache memory. There is also a small block up in the top left quadrant of the shot. This is a block of what Intel calls "Execution Trace Cache", otherwise known as L1 cache.
As you'll note, the memory structures here take up a sizable portion of the die area. SRAM cache memory is big real-estate hog and you can understand why both Intel and AMD have to drive tighter process geometries, in order to support larger amounts of cache moving forward.

Hi,
:)
I've always used Windowz and I consider myself an exceptional Visual
Basic programmer, so I know computers pretty good. In fact I got an A-
in my programming class last term. But I'm a little wary of how much
power Microsoft has in the computer field. Many of my friends use
RedHat and I've recently installed it on my machine at home. Although
I haven't had as much chance to play with it as I'd like, I've been
greatly impressed.
This weekend I gave some thoughts to the things that are wrong with
Linux. I hope no one minds having some flaws pointed out. I'd like to
help make RedHat stronger so it can conquer MS. Hopefully RedHat will
hear this (crossing fingers) and address these. I think with a little
effort, RedHat's Linux can defeat Microsoft's Windows!
To begin with, there are too many different flavors of RedHat.
Browsing a list on Amazon, I saw they made varients under the
codenames of Mandrake, Debian and Slackware, just to name a few. I
know that I'm very new to RedHat so maybe this is obvious but it seems
like RedHat should just sell a few different flavors of its operating
system. Perhaps one for the desktop and one for a server? Could
someone explain why RedHat produces dozens of different versions of
Linux?
Secondly did you know that anyone can view the source code to Linux! I
think that RedHat shouldn't make its code available. After all, what
keeps Microsoft from stealing RedHat's ideas and putting it into
Windows? My friend says that FreeBSD stole the TCP/IP stack from DOS a
long time ago and Microsoft is always looking for revenge for that.
Plus it seems to me like RedHat is just giving away its ideas for
free. And what keeps hackers or terrorists from tampering with the
code and putting a virus in every computer?
On a related note, why doesn't RedHat write Linux in assembly? My
friend says that's what Microsoft does for Windows, and that's why
Windows is faster and more stable than Linux.
Next RedHat definitely should kill -9 (ha, ha!) the command line.
Microsoft finally gave up DOS when Windows 2000 came out. I'm suprised
that RedHat hasn't migrated away from...whatever its version of DOS is
called (Bash, I think?) But maybe this is planned for a future
release?
Finally Linux needs games! RedHat will never be successful in the home
without games. They should also tell M$ to release a version of Office
for Linux too. And Internet Explorer!
Have a nice day! Go Linux!!
I've heard many good things about the McIntosh recently, and my family
o ads/cri tical/q321232/default.asp),
and I decided we needed to buy a new computer to replace our old
Windows machine. Having heard of its ease of use, we decided to go the
McIntosh route. We recently purchased an 800 mHz G4, with OSX. We
thought we were getting a good deal. But unfortunately things turned
out quite different.
Upon putting together the system we discovered that our mouse appeared
the be broken. Although it wasn't cracked or shattered, it only had
one button. When I spoke with our McIntosh dealer, we were told that
the upgrade to a real two-button mouse would require more money.
Apparently the mice with one button were only a "trial version" of the
hardware. I feel that this is a very deceptive practice on Apple's
part, and have written a letter to the Better Business Bureau to
protest this. I felt as though I'd bought a car but to make it go past
35mph we'd have to pay more money!
Rather than pay the exhorbitant sum of money for a real mouse, I went
to CompUSA and bought one out of my own pocket.
Strike one for McIntosh!
Secondly, one of the reasons that we went with McIntosh is because its
new OS was based on the Linux kernel. Since my company uses Linux
heavily (and its an OS I'm highly familiar with) I thought it would be
nice to be able to run my work applications at home. Imagine my shock
upon hearing that McIntosh was actually based on an incompatible fork
of Linux - a fork known as BSD. Since our computers at work ran Linux
- and not BSD - it was clear that I'd be unable to compile them on my
Apple! Strike two for McIntosh.
The final straw came last night. I received an email from a friend
alerting me to numerous holes in Microsoft's Internet Explorer. When I
went to MS' home page to download a patch
(http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/downl
I was stunned to see this patch only applies to Windows machines!
Given the tiny user base of McIntosh, apparently software patches
aren't made frequently - if at all - for McIntosh. I refuse to use an
OS that is as ridden with holes as swiss cheese. Thus I'm going to be
returning my McIntosh and purchasing a Windows XP box.
I hope this message reaches someone at McIntosh headquarters. Maybe
their CEO, Steve Ballmer(?) will get this and fix their business
practices. Until such changes are made, however, I fear that McIntosh
will continue to be a bit player in the computer world.
Thank you for your time,

Fellow Slashdot readers,
Recently I've had a chance to do some web design with PHP. Previously
I'd used Perl because I'd heard from many people that Perl was the end
all and be all of scripting languages for the web. Imagine my suprise
to discover that PHP was vastly superior! I know this is a bold
statement, but I have solid arguements to support it.
Before I begin, let me just clarify something. I'm not arguing that
PHP is better than Perl in all cases. There is certainly still a use
for Perl. Also, PHP isn't perfect but it does manage to fix many of
the shortcomings I've had with Perl. Here are a few of the things I've
noticed about PHP. Finally, I'm not the most talented Perl programmer
out there. I generally prefer to use the vastly superior Python, but
can use Perl if I have to.
* Ease of use. After about a day I had an excellent understanding of
both PHP and SQL. I was able to get a stable, useable and presentable
website up within 24 hours of reading the basics of PHP. Learning Perl
took me weeks and I'm still not even as good with it as I am with PHP.
I would definitely not recommend anyone new to programming begin with
Perl.
* The OO of PHP is excellent. In my experience, it rivals Smalltalk.
We all know that Perl's OO still needs work (whether or not OO is all
that great is another discussion.) Hopefully Perl will be patched up
so it supports such must-have OO features like introspection,
reflection, self-replication and ontological data-points.
* Outstanding database support. PHP supports virtually every DB under
the sun (although Berkeley DB is missing, oddly enough.) Perl seems
limited to MySQL and PostgreSQL, and its really a kludge for the
later. I've heard that this will be fixed in upcoming versions of Perl
though.
* Speed. PHP is one of the fastest languages I've ever used. While it
won't be replacing assembly or C, its definitely faster than Perl in
almost every case, particularly in regex which has long been Perl's
strongest point. I'm sure there are cases where Perl is equal to PHP,
but I can't think of any at the moment.
* Portability. I can take PHP code off my Linux box and plop it onto
an IIS server, or even one of those new Macintosh servers and have it
run without having to change a single line of code. Try doing this
with Perl! Its as though it was written in assembly, Perl requires
that much rewriting.
* Graphics. PHP comes with a nice little graphics library. While I
wouldn't use its to code the new Doom (VB would be a better choice)
its adequate for most web pages, and should be considered as a
substitute for Flash for certain things. Perl lacks a graphics library
of any kind.
* Data Structures. Under PHP you can create any type of datastructure
you need: Linked lists, binary trees, hash tables, queues, inverse
Reiser-biased recursion trees, etc. Under Perl you're extremely
limited in what you can do. This is because Perl isn't OO (so you
can't create Node classes, for example, usefull in a linked list) and
because it lacks pointers. Some of you may notice that PHP lacks
pointers, but look deeper! Behind the scenes, hidden from the user
pointers are used. Because of this, PHP can support complex data
structures.
Again this is just my experience. I don't mean to offend any Perl
coders because Perl was an excellent language. However, in certain
cases it may behoove one to write the back end in PHP instead of Perl.
Hi,
:)
I've always used Windowz and I consider myself an exceptional Visual
Basic programmer, so I know computers pretty good. In fact I got an A-
in my programming class last term. But I'm a little wary of how much
power Microsoft has in the computer field. Many of my friends use
RedHat and I've recently installed it on my machine at home. Although
I haven't had as much chance to play with it as I'd like, I've been
greatly impressed.
This weekend I gave some thoughts to the things that are wrong with
Linux. I hope no one minds having some flaws pointed out. I'd like to
help make RedHat stronger so it can conquer MS. Hopefully RedHat will
hear this (crossing fingers) and address these. I think with a little
effort, RedHat's Linux can defeat Microsoft's Windows!
To begin with, there are too many different flavors of RedHat.
Browsing a list on Amazon, I saw they made varients under the
codenames of Mandrake, Debian and Slackware, just to name a few. I
know that I'm very new to RedHat so maybe this is obvious but it seems
like RedHat should just sell a few different flavors of its operating
system. Perhaps one for the desktop and one for a server? Could
someone explain why RedHat produces dozens of different versions of
Linux?
Secondly did you know that anyone can view the source code to Linux! I
think that RedHat shouldn't make its code available. After all, what
keeps Microsoft from stealing RedHat's ideas and putting it into
Windows? My friend says that FreeBSD stole the TCP/IP stack from DOS a
long time ago and Microsoft is always looking for revenge for that.
Plus it seems to me like RedHat is just giving away its ideas for
free. And what keeps hackers or terrorists from tampering with the
code and putting a virus in every computer?
On a related note, why doesn't RedHat write Linux in assembly? My
friend says that's what Microsoft does for Windows, and that's why
Windows is faster and more stable than Linux.
Next RedHat definitely should kill -9 (ha, ha!) the command line.
Microsoft finally gave up DOS when Windows 2000 came out. I'm suprised
that RedHat hasn't migrated away from...whatever its version of DOS is
called (Bash, I think?) But maybe this is planned for a future
release?
Finally Linux needs games! RedHat will never be successful in the home
without games. They should also tell M$ to release a version of Office
for Linux too. And Internet Explorer!
Have a nice day! Go Linux!!
Which is less gay, recieving a blowjob from a man or getting fucked with a strap-on?
Discuss.
YOU FAIL IT!
That must be actual size!

WHICH IS LESS GAY:
Getting fucked up the ass with a strap-on dildo by a female
OR
Recieving a blowjob from a man?
Since posters are mostly experts on the subject, I decided to ask one of civilization's ancient mysteries to the pioneering minds in the world of deviant homosexuality: Slashdot users.
WHICH IS *LESS* GAY?
Which do you think is homosexual to a lesser degree, recieving a blowjob from a man or being fucked in the ass by a woman with a strapon?
A sad day in the lives of hillbillys everywhere. Buddy Ebsen, the loose-limbed Broadway dancer who achieved stardom and riches in the television series "The Beverly Hillbillies" and "Barnaby Jones," has died, a hospital official said Monday. There were no further details. He will be missed.
Just like the rest of your pathetic life, one long list of failures.
YOU FAIL IT

You'll notice that 50% of that software that is "available" for educational purposes on that page is "under development", meaning when you click the link it's an empty directory on SourceForge.

Once again, Intel has decided to turn up the heat on their arch rival, AMD. In a sort of digital ying-yang, the battle for Performance Desktop and Workstation Processor leadership, presses on relentlessly. Like opposite yet mutual compliments, Intel releases the 3GHz P4 with 800MHz system bus and AMD lets fly with the Athlon XP 3200+. It's almost like nature intended it to be, isn't it? As Intel and AMD duke it out, in an effort to out class the competition, the end user community enjoys yet another incremental performance enhancement. Not to mention a nice cost reduction usually comes along, with what was formerly high end product now mainstream, due to these brisk product maturity cycles.
.56 micron manufacturing process
.13 Micron Die
Our last look at AMD's latest product left us questioning AMD's performance rating somewhat. Although AMD's new Athlon XP 3200+ branding logically claims to have significantly better performance than the 3.0GHz P4, our testing showed that it was about on par with Intel's latest 3GHz chip, winning some and losing some, in various rounds of testing of our benchmark suites. This is the risk AMD runs, branding a product relative to performance, rather than an easily understood clock speed figure. Intel's approach however, on this new product release of the 3.2GHz P4 is pretty straight forward. It doesn't take a degree in Quantum Physics to understand that this new Pentium 4 is a full 1GHz faster that AMD's fastest Barton core at 2.2GHz for the Athlon XP 3200+.
However, the performance picture behind the clock speed, is the story that many of you come here to find out and that's what we'll aim to deliver for you today. At 3.2GHz, the new Pentium 4 is running a full 45% faster clock speed than an Athlon XP 3200+ at 2.2GHz. This is perhaps an impressive data-point and a tribute to Intel's ability to scale the P4 core to amazing new heights. On the other hand, as AMD likes to point out, it's not always about the MHz but how efficient a processor is within each clock cycle. We'll roll up our sleeves for you here and give you the straight scoop on that data-point as well.
Specifications of the Pentium 4 3.2GHz Processor
Another notch closer to the 4GHz mark
Clock Speed 5.0GHz
420MHz "Quad Pumped" Front Side Bus
Hyperthreading Technology for increased performance in Multi-tasking and Multi-threaded applications
1024K on chip, Full Speed L2 Cache
Rapid Execution Engine - ALU clocked at 2X frequency of core
256bit Floating Point/Multimedia unit
"Hyper Pipelined" Technology for extremely high clock speeds
Intel "NetBurst" micro-architecture
Supported by the Intel® i875P and i865G chipsets, with Hyperthreading support
Internet Streaming SIMD Extensions 2
Intel® MMXâ media enhancement technology
Memory cacheability up to 4 GB of addressable memory space and system memory scalability up to 64 GB of physical memory
Support for uni-processor designs
1.55V operating voltage range
Pentium 4
With 512K of full speed on chip L2 cache, an 800MHz Quad Pumped Front Side Bus, Hyperthreading, and 1.55V operating voltage, not much has changed for the new 3.2GHz Pentium 4, with the minor exception of an additional 200MHz in clock speed. In the die image on the right, you'll notice a couple of large rectangular dark grid regions on the right hand side of the die. These are the two banks of L2 cache memory. There is also a small block up in the top left quadrant of the shot. This is a block of what Intel calls "Execution Trace Cache", otherwise known as L1 cache.
As you'll note, the memory structures here take up a sizable portion of the die area. SRAM cache memory is big real-estate hog and you can understand why both Intel and AMD have to drive tighter process geometries, in order to support larger amounts of cache moving forward. Intel's Prescott Pentium 4 core, built on a 90 nanometer manufac
Parent is clearly not a troll. A troll is made to garner responses from ignorant idiots. Since this is Slashdot, there's no short supply. In this case however, the more appropriate moderation would have been to moderate to (-1, Offtopic) since it's a crapflood.
This reply isn't a troll either, it's offtopic as well. Moderators, quit hitting the pipe on that cheap ether-based 3 dollar crack and hit the good clean crack for an extra 2 dollars a hit.
That is all.
