To redirect Documents and Settings to a drive. You can use gpedit.msc and/or tweakUI to handle that (on a per user basis even).
Easier solution would be to use the "mountvol" command or Disk Management and mount a partition directly on your Documents and Settings folder. Then C:\Doucments and Settings\ is actually a seperate filesystem you can backup, restore, etc.
Dia is just that, a diagraming tool. That's all it does. It's not a presentation tool or graphical design tool.
Visio is a cross between a diagramming tool, a VB environment, and Illustrator. That's a hard act to follow. (And it wasn't originally a Microsoft product either).
1) "Not invented here". Actually, Intel does have a 64-bit platform, it's called the Itanium. They don't want to detract from their own product line by hyping this. They're marketing it like a way to extend your RAM and a way to get compatibility with those newfangled versions of NT that were once the province of AMD beta testers.
2) The 64-bit instructions are reportedly emulated and are not as fast as the AMD equivalent. Therefore they will make x86_64-specific optimizations seem slow. They'd rather you use it for the 40-bit pointers, but to keep the word sizes 32-bit and not to use those extended registers.
It's a half-hearted effort to get the compatilibity where it matters (OS, database) while exploiting the fact that most of the code is still x86_32 with a sprinkle of performance-critical SSE* and that runs fine on Nocona.
I think the point of the linux compatibility layer is to run COTS linux binaries, not stuff you can./configure; make; make install. Because I think that'd be sort of dumb... don't you? Why not run native...
is there wasn't one. Something about a government conspiracy and aliens, and a man in black you could never catch. An X-Files story arc mixed with Biohazard plotline does not == engaging story. It was, however, an excellent backdrop for environments that get increasingly weird. It's good as far as FPSs go, but I think Myst had a bit more weight to it's "story".
1) You need to emulate the Linux syscall interface. That means catching int 0x80 and treating it like a lcall into the kernel. It also means that when the kernel is entered via that method, that it uses a re-organized syscall table (possibly with differeing numbers of arguments and linux compatible wrappers).
2) You might need to provide linux type headers (dev_t, time_t, etc.)
3)/proc (I hope) and perhaps some/dev symlinks (I would think hd*, fd*, ttyS*...)
4) ld-linux
etc. No, it's not nearly as simple as that. But I'm impressed that glibc works on Solaris x86. I've heard of somebody being insane enough to port it sometime back, but I didn't think it'd be used for anything...
As it stands Doom III will be an interesting platform to make mods with... it's like an uber-gaming library or JVM you can target, if you will. So for the time being you can just try to wring the most out of what's just being provided as is.
By the time Doom III is opensourced, Sun boxes will be fast enough to run it without a $5000 accelerator card, so you won't really need the source to attempt the bored-Solaris-admin port until such time.
except that RadioActive seems to be mostly dead, and all the links to the involved standards are broken.
Not a good start!
Frankly there isn't very much to an RFID system. You have your reader, which is just some XYZ device with a serial interface (or USB-serial interface) that spits out data like a barcode reader. You don't have to think about things like modulation schemes or frequency unless you're building your own reader, otherwise you're buying a kit with reader and tags.
So then you just have to map those serial numbers into an index in a SQL table, and uh, go from there... SQL, application servers, USB-serial device drivers, all that's done already.
Maybe what they're saying is there isn't any good open-source inventory/point-of-sale packages that sit on top of an inventory database for the user (besides some kind of thrown-together PHP deal and web interface), or that are used to feed is present at location/is not present into said database in real time.
All those pages that were indexed were put there on purpose by somebody (usually it's a message board, or an IRC log, containing a list of "CC"s). This isn't google doing something that it normally doesn't do.
Moreover, I would wager if you try any of these CCs (provided the expiration isn't past already) that they won't work. Google, and anyone searching google, are seeing those CCs late in the game, after they've all been defrauded.
I didn't even get my dress off on prom night, I had to peel it off 18 hours later when I woke up underneath a volkswagon jetta that somehow made it into my garage. And there were opened boxes from undercarriage lighting kits... I felt so... dirty.
It's competent at a high bitrate. It doesn't use VQ coding, it doesn't even use full DCT. It's still a filterbank-based thing, like MP2, or AC3, which is fine for DVDs or Minidiscs, you know, higher capacity media. But you get down to the power-saving, space-saving levels that they are using for their marketing stats (like 96kbps and lower), and you'll wanna put your head through the wall.
$600... and it's worth it (especially if you get your company to pay).
Oh, and you _can_ get it to work, but you need to make sure you start the audio service, and you might need to break out the application compatibility toolkit.
That would be IBM, Real Networks, and some University dudes, respectively. However, Apple embraces the things it knows are a good deal. (It often gives them it's own name, however, but that's okay... it helps Mac users identify technology, i.e. "Airport", etc.)
It's only good at high bitrates... Dolby AC3 has a more robust encoding scheme. Sony just can't let that turd go and use some other formats. I really don't understand it.
The best part about the iRiver is that they (intelligently) decided it should use usb-mass storage to get stuff on and off the thing. Which makes it like a glorified USB memory stick which can additionally play many types of audio formats.
Unfortuantely, you can't use the thing while it's docked... so the Karma wins in that respect (using it as a stereo system component). But it's got SPDIF optical in and out, and it can record to MP3 from the optical in; as far as I know, nobody has that feature.
The thing that this girl thinks is neat about the iRiver is that the player doesn't balk when you partition the disc in the first place! It just uses the first FAT32 partition it can find, or if the disc isn't partitioned, pretends it's like a big removable floppy.
Hence the iRiver is _flexible_, which is why I like it.

It's XP, without all that stuff in XP you don't like.
And no service packs! Because they left out all the shitty stuff.

It might involve even swapping a CD during the process!!!1
You've got the slashbot MINDSET pat down. Maybe you can pretend to be a slashdotter in the TALENT SHOW.
Also, your website sucks.

what prey-tell is this mystical "engaging story" I keep hearing people associate with Half-Life?
Did we play the same game? I spent most of my time quick saving and reloading.
It's priced exactly the same as 2000 server. Even per CAL.

Anyone want to have a go @ FFA? ^_^

5 years proudly benchmarking 3D accelerators and CPUs. I'd say it's had a pretty good run.

::shrugs:: The AMD 81xx chipset is rock solid as well. It makes perfect sense, doesn't it?

Apple didn't invent any of these things:
-HyperTransport
-RTSP
-Rendezvous
