What about the fact that the Amiga never lost them a dime, and they took the profits and dumped them into PC clones? They never made a dime from PC clones.
Don't forget, even though they're hand-counted, they're counted in parallel at every voting location. To double the count speed, use smaller boxes and double the counters.
I work for an IBM owned company, luckily we've been sheltered from most of the bad things (at least where I'm at)
What really helps when working for a large company like IBM, is DONT BECOME A NUMBER. Make sure that you are in a position where customers have to frequently refer to you by "name" and not by position. It also helps if your name becomes almost a cliche' for a particular action or service.
When the time comes, the numbers will get laid off, the engineer clients know by name won't.
Has there ever been a run on a bank because of a position they've lobbied? If banks are going to be politically active, maybe the choice of bank you use should also be politically motivated from now on.
United Linux is a wasted effort, the effort shouldn't be put into making a "distrobution" standard, as this "promotes" the splintering of groups of software and software would be inclined to be hardcoded to work in a certain way.
Idealy, effort should be put into making software that is configureable enough to be productive in any environment, not just a standard install of XYZ Linux. Setting a standard in stone, makes the environment less flexible, and software is written to be less flexible as a result.
No, but you can pick up one with a G3 600MHz, the developer boards have already been released, and several Linux distrobutions have been ported to the new PPC Amiga.
The new PPC native OS, AmigaOS4, is scheduled to be released before Christmas.
Firewire is planned.
Call me a sceptic, but I find it hard to believe that a system just "invented" radio, when the heuristics already present in the system don't already know about radio in the first place.
If the system heuristics really have no knowledge of "radio" then how did the radio succeed in the simulated evolution, if the effects wern't already present in the heuristics?
To put it another way, if you write a program to simulate the flipping of a coin, and you give the odds 50/50 heads and tails, this would be like the program returning a result of "it landed on it's side" when the side of the coin was never present in the heuristics.

to have had Judge Judy try the case. I'd bust a nut watching her snap out a "SHUSH!" to Bill Gates!
Holy Shit! pwn3d! ...
Damn!

Operation overkill ][ still lives, I play via telnet from time to time at the OO world HQ
If someone would finish a Win32 port of UML, I could ditch VMWare.

Well, this sort of let's the air out of HP's bubble from two stories down! :)
A likely story.... How long has MS been trying to make Windows secure? 20 years from now XBox will be secure.

This doesn't appear to be a repost, but the deja-vu as I read this is overwhelming.
Glad to hear it, Progeny was my first glimpse at Debian, going to vanilla Debian afterwards I was impressed at how much I missed Progeny.
Anyone remember Progeny Debian? I grew somewhat fond of that distro, too bad nothing became of it.
Storm, another promising Debian based distro that I was sad to see fade away.
I'd love an Nforce chipset based Athlon miniPC with matching 15" LCD that could be thrown in a duffel bag. Perfect for lan parties!
Holy cow, it worked!
Back in the days of BBSing there was this BBS in Rochester, NY, and one of the users of this BBS had a heart attack while online.
After the incident the welcome screen was modified to read "Welcome to xxxx BBS" and down near the bottom: "Frags: 1"

Just my $.02

As is often said when an Amiga user passes away, "The Amiga, it will outlive all of us."
The Atari 2600 is a classic, and will never die. Neither will the Amiga. Just try it, they're indestructible, they will outlive us all.
