The small form factor Pentium 4 is a great idea, but think about: Are the really able to fit all the goods into it? It may make a nice portable system, but when it comes down to it, an Mini-ITX board will be just as function(mostly), and be MUCH cheaper. Anyways, I'm an Athlon kind of guy.
32-bit computer may be nearing its end, but I don't think that Apple will be the ones leading its demise. Some of the points this guy brings up are quite valid. I myself use PCs only because I can build them. I think the Athlon64 will be much more widely adopted, and it will hopefully overthrow the P4s... We'll see
Wait, I thought AOL was considering using Mozilla/Netscape instead of MSIE?
MSIE opens much quicker, so if AOL were to use Netscape/Mozilla, then I suppose AOL would take up more RAM, but I would much rather use AOL(which I don't) if it used Mozilla.
Does it really matter, though? Most people are moving towards broadband, and most geeks don't go near AOL.
I still run Windows on a day-to-day basis for most of my activities, but boot up Linux a few times a week... The SCO has brought about some negative energy towards Linux and themselves, but it's nice to see that Microsoft still has a lot of its own. $750 million is a large chunk of money, but its too bad it really won't affect Microsoft... Maybe if more people started filing suits with them...
Hmmm...
I've really found that getting a Pinacle Video-editting compatible card and software is helpful. I've converted the majority of my VHS collection to DVD for a relatively low price... WHich comes out to be less than I spent on all the VHS.
IPv6, right now, is almost as useless as the Athlon64 is going to be. IPv4 was a major breakthrough for its time, and the time it took to develop a 32-bit processor was far too long, but, right now, no one/really/ needs IPv6, and people(NOT companies) don't need a 64-bit desktop processor.
IPv4 and 32-bit processors still have a some life left (5-10 years, tops)...
Of course, then we'll all be migrating to these new technologies in a hurry... So... Make these changes gradually?
I was expecting this attack much earlier, when SCO first brought this accusation to light. Hrm. I suspect that this isn't that last one, either. And will it stop at DoS attacks?
Whether or not IBM broke any of these agreements, I don't think it really matters. No one likes the SCO, especially now. SCO seems to be the only ones who care.
Though, you have to wonder... What would they do with the $1 Billion if they won? Yes, IF. Perhaps these attacks will change their mind, or perhaps they will just lose in court.
That's great, but how long would it take to implement in all the major countries? In a world nearing the end of methane-based fuels for transportation, is it really worth it? Sure, we still need to transport natural gas and other types of gasses, but... is it worth it? I'm sure a lot of these gasses will become obselete in the next 3-4 decades.
I've been working on a project over the past few years in my back yard every summer. I've built a large treehouse with electricity and running water in to my in to the the/massive/ walnut tree in my back yard. It is currently a luxurous 2 levels, and I'm considering adding a ground level to it.

I may not be able to attend the protest/demonstration, but they have no full support, whether they use legal or illegal actions while doing so.

Just imagine, we could have some kind of LCARS from Star Trek.

Here's the LCD screen And here's a link on how to make it into a 5.25" drive bay. Enjoy
(A) I don't like laptops (B) AMD are cheaper and generally more efficient... when cooled properly.
Yeah... that's some good news for us in there...
