I tried it last week, and it is wholly unsuited to do anything bigger than a page. There are issues with scale, printing, scale+printing. It mainly stems from one being unable to tell ahead of time how big one's flowcharts will print. I'm sorry, but an 8-inch wide box by default seems a bit wrong to me.
Wasn't that schizophrenia? Creation science is a willing belief. I may think people who go all out to prove dinosaurs are just a 'mystery' put down by God are a little bit nuts, but it's not a mental illness.
Believing God created the universe and everything in it is creationism. What Damadian believes is not creationism but creation science. Instead of using science to prove their point, Creation Scientists use religion to fill the gaps with God. That eye is too darned complex, ergo Goddidit.
Actually, the reason Dr. Damadian was left out was because his version of the MRI barely worked. When it passed the first engineering test, he hyped his (then incomplete) machine, and eventually his company abandoned his own design in order to use Lauterbur and Mansfield's method. He may have made the breakthrough in the first iteration of MRI, but L+M made it reliable and accurate.
Oh, I understand that perfectly. I actually prefer the 'English' spelling for any particular word. And I'm a Usonian. I prefer it because, like I said, I hate certain letters, and because I usually write on on my webpage, which is a WORLD audience. I find it highly important to spell to international convention. I'm still having a problem with 'English' style grammar, however.
Absolutely! and I hate variables like quux, because it has that 'eks' letter in it. I honestly think we could do without several letters and not miss a beat.
Yet they managed to spell several words in the 'British English' fashion, which only serves to confuse the reader further. I am often angered by people who tell me I spelled 'specialise' incorrectly. I am not a fan of 'Zed'; he's a pointless letter, save in the case of Zimbabwe and Zipper.
I use Sakura micron pens. They are as tough as they come, and much cheaper than high-end pens and come in various tip sizes, making them great for illustration. If you are concerned about grip size, then checkout their 'sumo grip' pens.
I briefly watched the Sci-fi channel show, 'Tracker' only because Geriant Wyn Davies was in it. Anyway, hearing him deliver a 1-800-COLLECT ad in the middle of it made me erase the episode on the spot. Now, I stick to things that can't even possibly have ads in them, like science fiction.
I confirmed this by moving my screen. Yes, there it is: A chrome Apple logo. I think people are just getting a bit too excited about something that has been in place for 1.5 years. Also, some Apple vendors use a mirrored logo as well.
Like the Optiplex SX 260 we have to replace in the lab because the power mount is becoming unsoldered. Or the two for which we already got replacement hard drives. Servers from Dell are solid, but their mid-level products are shite.
Nevermind, Orbital now does USB (there appears to be a header on this board for 'front' USB) and there are so many other ways of remotely hitting boxes without using RS-232. Hell, I haven't used RS-232 for about 5 years.
Perhaps they dropped it because they realised that floppys are FAR more expensive per meg than CD-Rs and DVD-Rs? Just a thought.
As for the RS232 port, I'm kinda mixed. On the one hand you don't get that serial boot output. On the other hand, it's easier to hook up a monitor and a keyboard than term into an RS232 port.
Yeah, the LCD and VFDs via serial are the only use I could possibly come up for keeping them around. even so, there has to be a way to do this via a usb header.
1.8" would still be better. I think the granparent poster was thinking along the lines of a cardbus/PC Type 1 size. but 2.5 will obviously fit just fine:)

One must assume a used Ferrari.
Yes, just like how they caught Enron, WorldCOM and Comcast before it was too late. They are a hindsight organization, if ever there was one.

Have you SEEN a Honda from the 70s? Keeping up and increasing the quality constantly are two different things.

When companies decide that they want to advertise completely through placement, I shall cease completely this bad habit called television viewing.
omg wtf is this!
Kawaii?
You say this is Earl Grey? I'd swear that it was Darjeeling.

Oh shit, that was the pro mouse I kept hitting last night. I was wondering why it was all tarred-up this morning. I thought it was a glass pipe.
Pretty and functional, thanks. Cheap is relative, anyway.
Henry Ford didn't invent the automobile.

2.5" SATA is very sexy.
