    Do you have his order in writing? You know how they can be? Just a thought.

  3. Re:I guess Bill thinks it's time... on In The Works: Windows For Supercomputers · · Score: 1

    I think that the point he was trying to make was this is old hardware. Hardware that older versions of windows ran on just fine. Even Linux has drivers, and it runs stable with his hodgpodge of hardware. What happened to hardware that was certified to run on older versions of windows. It didn't change. They certified it once. They should know how to make it work in their current OS. When the upgrade to the current windows version requires an whole new set of hardware, you should add the hardware to the price of the upgrade.

  4. Re:Better than nothing on Hybrid Cars Don't Live Up to Mileage Claims · · Score: 1

    I have been thinking about getting a high MPG car, and it is all about the money in my pocket at the pump. I am not saying I don't care about the environment. Just that it will not affect which car I buy. I know I am not the only one.

    Why did he have to fly over and catch her. Could he have just changed the bit about her whacking into the ground? Maybe created a nice little pillow for her to land on? Like the grandparent said, it is all about being consistant.

  7. Re:Vote! on Increasing the Value of the Domestic IT Worker? · · Score: 1

    I don't think it has anything to do with "the world owes American residents something." People should first care about their own country and what is best for the people they live next to.

    US IT jobs going overseas is just as bad for the US as Micro$oft software running on all government computers of other countries. It is in their best intrest to have contorl over their own computers and in turn, create local jobs to support that choice. No one here bitches when another country decides to take money away from poor MS by switching to Linux.

    How about adding a printer, or changing the current powersave settings? Not so easy with runas.

    I am suspect of any company that NEED bad things to happen, like virus, to make money. Is it not in their best intrest to have alot of viruses spreading so they can say we catch 1 trillion viruses? I am not pointing any fingers but it makes you think.

    Ok, Ok. You got me. I admit it. Nessie is really just me in a Flipper costume looking for a date.

  12. Sound cards on Xeon vs. Opteron Performance Benchmarks · · Score: 1

    The problem I have with integrated sound is when I am playing mp3s and open a large file(avi, game, ..) my sound cuts out for a second. My last mobo had the same problem until I put a $15 SB in. I thought the AC97 would be ok. I was wrong.

  15. Re:How is "interception" illegal? on Arrest in Caridi FBI Investigation · · Score: 1

    Surveillance, yes. But what about just driving by my house and just happen to pick up a signal of me saying "I am going to bomb such and such" or "yes, mrs. doe. I will kill your husband"? Will they keep driving or use this as cause to get a warrant for surveillance? or worse yet just bust on in? This is assuming they know where the signal came from.

    No, this has not happened to anyone I know.

  16. Re:How is "interception" illegal? on Arrest in Caridi FBI Investigation · · Score: 1

    When cordless phones first came out, you could pick up on calls with a standard police scanner (they are legal here). Are you telling me that just having a scanner is breaking the law? Do police need a warent to receive signals that are emitted from your house?

  17. Published... on Microsoft's Security Report Card · · Score: 1

    exploits is the key. OSS encourages people to point out their bug and flaws. Because they care about the product they release to the world. M$ discourages people to mention their short commings. The site that listed all the unfixed IE bugs was taken down due to a request from M$. DCMA prevents people from mentioning anything they learn from decompiling programs. (You don't think that stopped do you?)

    So, I makes sense that M$ has had below average exploits published last year.

    When has ALL (I mean every last one) other countries ever agreed on anything? If there is just one country that does not agree, passing a law would only effect you and me.

    I know how these women feel. I feel that the generic image of a man/woman (plan and not defined) is the incorrect lable for most people. They should make mutiple restrooms for all types of people. Like a really fat man/woman, really skinny man/woman, woman with big tits, man with big dick..... the list goes on. Oh yeah, and have bouncers at the door to make sure you go into the right one.

    Never mind, this is all too stupid
