With ESX VMware is making money on consolidating many underutilized servers onto one box (with redundant failover box if needed) without the fear that a bad app misbehaving & killing the OS on one virtual machine will lock up other virtual machines' OS. It also provides customizable virtual network(s) between the VMs. A true open source equivalent would be very cool (one that can run ANY i386 OS in VM) You can migrate virtual machines from one physical box to another, sync, and cut over without interruption if they're both on same subnet. Kewl, hope a true open source equivalent exists someday.
wow, you get to put IAAL in your posts about legal matters!
thanks for the interesting info; been meaning to check out my credit report but never get around to it

an ATM packet has 48 bytes for data....the odds are great a packet that was a small part of known exploit would look exactly like the movie you're streaming, or an email attachment from your aunt Minnie. Would you assemble and look at a group of packets and test against a 1,000 known viruses, trojans and worms. Maybe Cisco could paint their logo over an acre of Cray Supercomputers and call that the "bad payload detecting ATM router"
2x5x10cm = 100 cubic centimeters, and there are 100 ^3 = 1,000,000 cell phones per cubic meter. 60 million people in UK, say 2/3 have cell phones. That's 40 cubic meters, or 4 dump trucks full, or 2 big-ass dump trucks, or less than one Metric Fuckload mining dump truck
it seems the existing MacOS couldn't be stretched enough to be a modern 21st operating sytem, so the functionality and usefulness of OS X, which makes it popular, is very much due to BSD.
yes, that would have the advantage of not adding to heat budget of earth (assuming we don't make space based solar collectors that intercept sunlight NOT bound for earth)
the intense ultraviolet from such a thing would cause burns, especially to fair-skinned people who would have to put on a protective lotion. Also, those living near the equator would get more than their fair share of the output. It would cause storms too.
could you send word back home that we're finding our current leader to be a bit of a dullard, dolt and dimwit, and could we possibly have George III back as our leader? or any other half-mad Hanoverian you might have lying about the place? We'll gladly start paying the Stamp Act and Townshend Duties, hell, they're cheaper and less invasive of our liberties and freedom than income tax.
I for one don't want to be using my phone numeric pad to type in something like "Computational Geomentry: numeric methods and algorithms for the graphical computer scientist". By the time I got to the end of that using 1-3 pushes/pauses per letter, I'd just have bleeding stump left for a thumb.
with % that low it doesn't seem counterfeit batteries are a problem - THOUSANDS of phones would be exploding if counterfeit batteries were the issue! C'mon people, we drive 60+MPH with 10 to 30 gallons of gasoline, it's much more likely we'd get burned that way.....
that's the manufacturing world of CAD....just wanted to add in the architectural/civil engineering side the main player is AutoCAD, which dropped Unix back in the late 90's and went all win32. *sigh* the core stuff was developed on Sun boxes, and it would port to Linux very easily. I used to admin/customize/program AutoCAD on SGI & Sun boxes.
Oh, you want matched ! Matched is a little more money: A matched quad of ElectroHarmonix 7868 can be had for $90, for your 12ax7 in a matched pair the european equivalent ecc83 is $45-65 per pair.
On a not unrelated note, About 25 years ago there was this start-up venture that was making semiconductor devices out of doped glass , no crystalline structure involved: there was a Popular Science article about how the process was much easier than purifying silicon and growing silicon crystal. Though the electrical properties weren't as good, they were usable.
That which we call "electrical copper" is really one of several alloys (most people have never seen pure elemental copper) that are hard to make, and many recipes involve poisonous/dangerous things such as arsenic, phosphorous, etc.
If you had a small bit of doped silicon, I would think making a crude insulated gate field effect transistor would be much easier, just put two conductors on each end of a piece of doped silicon, a drop of epoxy resin on the silicon somewhere between the two conductors (not touching them), and a conducting pad on that epoxy for an insulated gate.
Much simpler than making a light bulb, much less a vacuum tube.

doh! slashdot math! 4,000 cubic meters of cell phones, 400 dump trucks

you can crack, but then how do you seperate? With electrolysis you get each gas at an electrode.

the license will of course contain the key that you must use & specify the algorithm you will use for encryption

yes, very true, and this is exactly why the ICBM's would fly if the early warning grid is attacked.
Disabling the early warning grid does constitute threat of nuclear force and puts the civilian population at risk
the nuclear reprisal for attacking those satellites doesn't seem all that juicy

heh, the conducting elements of your tube won't be raw materials either (unless you mine & smelt your own ores) 8D
