First of all, the chipset IS the design. Have you looked at a wireless card lately? The RF shield goes over the whole thing. The rest is just interface buffering (impedance/voltage matching, I/O arbitration), and maybe a ROM.
D-Link buys designs. Linksys buys designs. Netgear buys designs. I wasn't trying to put Microsoft down, I was trying to express how OBVIOUS it was that Microsoft would have this too, seeing as there would be no excuse (x86 platform and all, no wifi stack/firmware changes or rewrites needed, etc.)
There are plenty of people who use it effectively. They just don't waste their time posting to slashdot to brag about it. It's complainers that make the most noise.
Usually you use an pick_region->apply_weighted_window->transform->man ipulate->untransform->overlap->add->move_half_wind ow_width procedure. This prevents discontinuity across block boundaries, and prevents aliasing (high frequencies -> low frequencies and vice versa during transform).
Think about it, you have wings that are subject to thousands of tons of force during braking manuvers, and you want some kind of kinetic linking system or components on tracks?
It'd be impossible (well nearly) to design such a system that wouldn't increase the weight of the vehicle appreciably. A rigid design helps to minimize reinforcement, which minimizes weight, well, you get it now.
And do you know of any standard aircraft that have this amazing feature? Baby steps...
figures. Anyone want to guess that the vectors of the state space are coefficients of a very common filterbank over the radio's time series, and there are as many as there are input stations?
just pick some "feature", maybe filterbanked sets of coefficients from the time series, and call that a vector. Collect them over the sources, and evolve a set of eigenvectors that pick out the prinicple components of that space. Use relative eigenvalues from each source to pick a "dominant" represent set for the output.
Transform back, and what do you have... weird shit!
it doesn't really extract "musical themes" per se. It is a purely statistical engine, using simple filterbanks (FFT) to partition and quantify the sound. It then picks the "most statistically important" pieces back together in a semi-intelligent manner.
This is sort of like taking a bunch of photos, taking all the common/important parts out, and stitching them into a new photo. I guarantee you it would look sort of like a person (cobbled together from different people) standing in front of a mixmash of backgrounds. Unless you like non-human subjects, in which case it looks like a cat.
It was on the hard drive (the BIOS is just configured in such a way at ship time to boot it first, then boot what you actually wanted to).
What you should do (in the future) is just remove the hard drive before turning it on the first time, and going into the BIOS, then saving changes to the boot order (even if you don't actually change anything). That should prevent it from showing it with a boot cd or whatever.
1) Remove power. 2) Open box. 3) Remove hard drive 4) Close box. 5) Replace power, boot 6) Go into setup. 7) Select boot from CD-ROM first. 8) Insert CD-ROM 9) Turn off machine 10) Open box 11) Replace hard drive 12) Close box 13) Boot. 14) Install fresh OS from CD 15) ??? 16) profit (no EULAs to worry about)
I wrote a paper for an undergraduate english course stipulating (using that argument) that it is foolish to continue bleeping out a word which is understood anyway, unambigously, as 'fuck', 'shit', etc.
It actually harms people because they have the word kept from them, and when they come of age, they feel it is lent some special power because of it's reserved-ness in childhood, and then they use it altogether too fucking much, cuntwhacks. All of them little bastards.
See this The topic has been researched extensively by many fields of science, and the verdict is out: green, not yellow. Any introductory textbook in anatomy, human perception, digital signal/video processing, or even a desktop encyclopedia can tell you all this.
The cone for green is most sensitive to a wavelength of about 531 nanometers. This has been measured both by subjective tests and objectively by activating individual chemicals found in the cones. If you are wondering whether the brain perceives a different color (i.e. yellow) when that cone is active (by itself), then here is a test you can do: find an LED which emits light at 530 or so nm and observe it. I will bet you a few cool million that it will be distinctly green. If you don't believe me, you can buy one and try it.
By the way (unrelated) that company sells really cheap, really bright LEDs that most other companies will gouge you for. I highly recommend them if you plan on doing case modding, alternative lighting, etc.
1) Slowest speed possible doesn't mean best burn. You may actually have to experiment. Frequently higher speed drives have less-than-accurate servos and do better when they aren't trying to keep the speed down. Pick a slower integer factor of the highest rated speed and use that.
2) Buy a lot of CDs, and not only back up the CDs, but have a schedule where you regularly duplicate older copies onto new media. CD-Rs can have short lifetimes (and can be damaged during handling). Check your md5sums after each burn, and maybe write the last 8 digits on the disc itself for quick verification.

Oh wait, this isn't news at all. It'd be news if they DIDN'T buy a design and slap the X-Box logo on it.
Microsoft shuns 802.11, claims a wireless standard that open isn't secure enough for their new image!!!
Then I could badmouth them for being stupid, and feel better at night.
So now every little X-Bot parent has one less stocking stuffer to think about.
in Wayside School is falling down.
How was she?
Delicious!
So can I join the GNAA now?

Yeagh for MATLAB!!!!!!!

Sure, it looks like it might be insightful, but if you actually COMPREHENDED what he was saying, it was +1 Funny.

maybe you should ask autopr0n first.

I can't get a decent internet connection for less than $300 a month at my house right outside Dulles airport.
What about the internet is cheap, again?

The 256 is about $50-55, 512 is avail for less than $100.
It's a pretty good deal they have going now adays.
