It used to be that when a virus was detected it would warn you, but still let you download it (attachment). Apparently too many people downloaded them, cause now if it detects a virus it doesn't let you download it! I swear some people....
Yes the silicon stuff sucks. But there are other ones that are pretty good.
Point: I have a tube of Silver OXIDE paste sitting beside me. Cost me about $2, but its thermal conducivity is 7.5 W/mK, which is almost as good as Arctic Silver (I AM assuming that the tube manufacture didn't lie about their thermal conductivity, which is a very real possibility). I think the OP was trying to say that - not that the Arctic Silver is a total scam against Uncle Joe's Silicon Stuff.
Remember that there are a lot of other people who do MUCH more intense cooling than these panzy computers, and a LOT of the cooling stuff for computers is a scam sometimes (ie: pin heatsinks).
I personally use AS3, and so does my father. With this paste I can safely overclock my Athlon 2000+ to an Athlon 2600+. Not that I do, mind you, because even though I can, I'd rather know that my system is well cooled, rather than adequately.
Why? If your system is running at 25C instead of 35C, I've got a newsflash: it doesn't matter. If you aren't going to be OCing it then there is no point. Now if your system was at 60C, then I'd agree that perhaps you should start to reduce the temperature.
People seem to have trouble driving while using a cell phone - do you think most people are ready for complete 3D navigation? I guess thats why this thing needs a pilots license...
I really don't see whats so great about this. Seems like a homebuilt aircraft, as you still need all the normal things (pilots license, airport, etc).
You've got to question a report from the OSDL on the issue... but likely I bet you most people will just bash the SCO.
If the SCO releases a report saying the exact opposite, you'd use it as toilet paper. I'm not sayin the OSDL report is bad, its probably pretty accurate, but... what we need is a good 3rd party to anaylze this issue!

DVD-Rs go 8x

Thought this was kinda funny:
from this breakneck speed...
Kinda like when the blazing fast 166 MHz pentiums come out, you know in a year people will be scoffing at 8x DVD speed;-)
Plus, good luck returning a pirated tape or CD when the quality is inferior or the product is defective, as it often is.
I think it should actually read: Plus, good luck returning a legal tape or CD when the CD doesn't conform to CD standards or play on your CD player, as it often is.

I can just see a field of flowers all one colour.
Then there is one flower that is a different colour, and you think its so unique. You go over to take a look at it...
On Yahoo mail it has virus checker.

0.86mm might at well be 3 feet off.
Actually you'd be WAY better off it was 3 feet off. Even if it was say 10mm off, then the axle probably wouldn't fit or would be VERY noticably loose.
Instead you get the situation of something just fitting enough that it seems OK to the mechanic...
dupe - this thing seemed familiar.

Just tried to add Fax.com's Fax number of their list... wonder what will happen.
Geeze - they should have put a link directly to a nice full-quality trailer, perferably in .avi format (no encoding).
'Informative'? I'm pretty sure that things a joke...
It SPECIFICALLY says this (after saying that Canada et al. support the Japan site):
Hi,
w ww.softrom.ro/11098.asp+%22Real+Alternative%22&hl= en&ie=UTF-8.
Check out http://www.google.ca/search?q=cache:fPMiHUg_FyYJ:
Then get the mirror at http://home.hccnet.nl/h.edskes/finalbuilds.htm. Enjoy!
Head over to http://www.hammondmfg.com/ and find a product like what you want (the rack, the case, a shelf, whatever).
Then get the diagram for it, includes all the dimensions you need. Then just build your case according to that...
Or people will just pirate W2K for $0.50 (cost of a CD).
Microsoft BOB was the best man!.
Just get Real Alternative - play real files without the mess.

Reminds me of a usenet post:
"Remeber, watts = volts X amps. Unless you are in the amplifier business, in which case it always ends up being 200 watts or more no matter what"
Live CD's are great IMHO.
;-)
Perfect for showing people Linux, or recovering another system (especially a Windows system, because it introduces them to Linux
The whole USB idea is pretty good as well, good way to do stuff w/o touching the hard drive at all.
Man I feel sorry for the guy who lives at 123 Fake Street, when they come to arrest him for using the database maliciously.
FRAM? Its been real for a while, see www.ramtron.com....
Its pretty good stuff, I've used it in some embedded designs (not for computers yet, very small RAM sizes).
Know whats an even better idea? Use silk fabric inside that rubs around the plastic a lot. Then let ESD work its magic...

I like when the RIAA says this:

So how long until someone rewrites the firmware?
The camera just has a normal FLASH part, so you could re-flash the chip, and all is good!
the cheapo alkalines may be lying about the mAH rating.
