  1. Re:Cost is still prohibitive... on JVC First With A HD-Based Consumer Camcorder · · Score: 1

    Here in Europe "soccer" games last 90 min + injury times (around 100 min which is 1.66 hours).

  2. Re:he said quality servers (nt) on LAMP Grid Application Server, No More J2EE · · Score: 1

    That depends. It's a quality server compared to other tech, but considering how easily it's outperformed by the competition, you have to call it substandard. That's also a fact.

    Let me add my support to you and your kid in the making. Your free to use your money the way you want, and it's perfectly natural that you want kids.

    The fact remains you can afford the expensive treatment. Probably they're poor and not in the top 5% bracket "for a reason."

    Cheers.

    That 10% comes probably from their obsession using imperial metrics :D

  8. Re:Why does India need hi-tech just to survive? on Third World Research, Development & Innovation · · Score: 1

    I'm not an expert, but as you pointed out, life expectancy got a lot better almost elsewhere. Looks to me like the brits didn't have a say in this.

    As for the economic depression... it's never good when the people with the money escape to never come back. Independence has that, at the beginning at least.

  9. Re:Why does India need hi-tech just to survive? on Third World Research, Development & Innovation · · Score: 1

    You realize life expectancy is not linear right? 20 up to 83 is a hell of a lot more than 26 to 64.

  11. Re:Why switch? on If Mac OS X Came to x86, Would You Switch? · · Score: 1

    It would be a good option, but if it wasn't free or very cheap, I wouldn't pay for a second MacOSX license. I read my mail and browse the web from three computers regularly. One is my Mac laptop which is nice for the bedroom. My linux AMD64 has a better keyboard and mouse, and in the office Win2k doesn't give me much trouble.

    My personal mail accounts have nice web interfaces and I leave all main in the server except to remove clutter and ancient mail. I refuse to check my work accounts from home.

  12. Why switch? on If Mac OS X Came to x86, Would You Switch? · · Score: 5, Informative

    The only "issues" I have with Linux is being forced to use certain windows apps (work mostly and no, I'm not leaving a job I like just so I can delete my windows partition). I also have a Mac and yes, if MacOSX was available, I'd install it, but I wouldn't "switch" - why should I use just one OS?

    The whole "switch" thing is for basic users I guess. The rest of us aren't afraid to partition a hard drive.

    One can use nuclear power to generate that hydrogen, which would be not 10% more or less, but orders of magnitude more efficient.

    Not really comparing apples-to-apples, but with modern codecs you can get in 1GB what MPEG2 does for DVD in 2-3GB.
