You're saying a six bucket Bayesian for Slashdot (actually, I'd prefer a nine bucket system - one for each moderation TYPE - bayesian is score based, so filtering at the user end could be done differently - say, 90 as the default hide threshold, but if someone wanted to read ALL messages, set it to 100). It'd only work if the human moderation worked right, though (kinda like humans throwing ham in the spam and vice versa)...
Yahoo! Internet Life ran the story, but I doubt you'll find it - I got SCREWED by ZDNet when they killed it. YIL.com is no more, and archive.org isn't working for me...
I was replying to the person who was getting scrollbars at 1024x768 on his iBook. Actually, I use Opera 7.2x (so many versions in various places) on most of my computers - I just haven't gotten around to updating this one.
Fully customizable toolbar, thank you very much. Yes, the free version has ads in it, but now they give you the choice between Google text ads or the old graphical ads. Besides, if you like living on the wrong side of the law, serials for Opera are RATHER common.
Or get one that's slightly more obtrusive, but adds a shitload of other USEFUL features (unlike the one that I saw that had a button for "Cumshots" - you're not going to get any work done with that one). Like this one. Of course, IE sucks. That's one reason! (Personally, I can't stand Mozilla - I tried forcing myself to use both Moz and Firebird, and found I could stand it less than I could stand IE - I use Opera, thank you very much)
They're tuner-less, RCA-input-only TV sets, unless they're RGB models, in which case they're better, but less compatible. They're still great for playing games on if you can find one with an RCA sound input.
BTW, Links 2.x IS graphical, through X or FB... No tabs, but Hacked Links offers that.
I've actually seen a 640K Amstrad PC clone... no HDD, either. Of course, Compaq and HP are now at the bottom of the PC World reliability charts (interestingly, Dell is at the top, even though eMachines looks better from the chart)...
OK. but it was the first box with RISC in the US. It was a LOT more common than the Acorn, and the Acorn only contributed a RISC processor type to the mix (ARM, and it IS used in 99% of modern PDAs (Pocket PC and Palm PDAs both use ARMs). They weren't a very popular RISC box.
1. And that's why I said OSS. Someone could backport OOo to ProDOS 16 on 65C816... *ducks* 2. Telnet to a shell account (better than dialing directly in only in that you can get the dial-up), and you'll be browsing the web. Port Links to it, and you'll be browsing the web.
Actually, they are. It's Arima, and the only laptops of theirs that I can actually get info on are Pentium M-based laptops, but the C|Net article said that it would be either an Athlon XP-M or Celeron CPU in these things.
Well, I did some further looking, and WalMart isn't paying $99 for Lycoris anymore. They're paying less than $14.48 (that's with a faster CD-RW drive than the no OS box with the closest specs).
As for the Commodore 64, you've got to give the A2 the fact that it was designed five years earlier, and each model HAD to be backward compatible with the whole line.
Yes, they did always suck. My point was, that they started sucking even more about when they dropped the 2000 from their name. PS/2s were too proprietary. Compaqs? I didn't know they were THAT interesting. I'll give you ThinkPads - the 760 series was pretty revolutionary (a friend of mine used one as his main computer last year). Amstrads? Cheap, yes. Interesting? Nah. Tandys? Powerful, but not that good. HP Kayaks? Heard of them, but don't know that much about them, and Googling them gets RAM upgrades, CPU upgrades, and those porn sites that spam Google, not actual info on them.
Umm, there's a TCP/IP stack and a 10Mbps ethernet card (granted, Marinetti doesn't play nice with the ethernet card, but it WILL play nice with a modem). It's got Internet capabilities. WP software? That's why there's OSS - keeps platforms from dying completely off.
1K for your main AND VRAM? Damn, we Apple II users were lucky - 1K VRAM standard, 64K standard on the Apple IIe (as little as 4K on the Apple ][, 16 on the ][+, and up to 48K normal or 64K with the Language Card on both models), and with the 80 column card, it either had 1K additional VRAM or 64K additional RAM, 1 of which was VRAM...
10. Altair 8800 The first, as MS would have you think. OK, so it was the first popular, and here's where it fits in the list. 9. Quadra/Centris 610 DOS Card model A PC AND a Mac in the same case? Sweet! 8. PowerMac 6100 RISC for the masses... what else can I say? 7. Outbound Portable The first Mac laptop, and one of the first legal Mac clones - kinda important, wouldn't you say? 6. Laser 128 series The first fully legal Apple II clone. 5. Compaq Portable The first IBM PC clone, and one of the first luggable IBM PCs. 4. Macintosh GUI for the masses. 3. Commodore 64 Cheep! Cheep! Computing for the masses, however, I didn't like the emulators, and there's a shitload of bias here, m'kay? 2. IBM PC The... IBM... PC... umm... DUH! 1. Apple II The first modern computer. It could boot without any addins (to BASIC, however), but it's expansion capabilities are AMAZING - after all, CF, IDE, and 10Mb/s Ethernet cards are being made for it today.
Well, to be fair, back when they were actually called Gateway 2000's, they were a LOT better... Anyway, I feel that all children should muck about with an old 8-bit box like the Apple II... even though the A2 was outdated when I first used one, that's what I used for several years, since I was three. I barely knew how to use MS-DOS, I barely knew what Windows was, I hadn't heard of inkjets and knew B&W lasers cost WAY too much for any sane person (and almost no apple II software supported them), I had heard of hard drives - wanted one (swapping disks pissed me off - especially when I only had one working drive...) but I knew I wasn't getting one. It's kinda like this:
I had to code my own GUIs if I wanted one, and do it in BASIC (all I knew, and I didn't know it that well) on a 1MHz CPU and with 128KiB RAM, and I didn't have a modem or any local BBS, and my apps were on 5.25" disks that held 143KiB each, and I LIKED IT! (and hell, I'm only 15 - I wouldn't be typing anything on/. if it weren't for that old box...
Why doesn't someone create an ATX Apple IIgs compatible board, so I can pretend that I have a sweet gaming rig under my arm when I walk into the LAN party (then freak everyone out when they're getting pinged by an Apple II...)?
Of course, it should be modded underrated as much as it has OT - Funny doesn't help Karma, OT hurts it, Underrated is used when a message should show up, the moderator has a point but it still needs to show up, or it's funny, and it was unfairly modded down (not using M2)

I meant VRAM as in RAM set aside in the memory map for video use, not as in RAM specifically designed for video use.

Just Gateway... they were always crap, but about when they dropped the "2000", they started sucking worse.
I thought IR was heat, not UV.

Exactly. The only reason Network Stumbler has a Default SSID list is because those using the default probably wouldn't activate WEP.
Use a Pentium M, sit it on the other seat, underclock the CPU, use a laptop cooling pad, etc., etc.

42% of 1,286 files, not 42% of the 1,286 files. They probably searched for "child porn", found 1,286 results, 42% of which are really child porn.

RISC for the US masses. How about that?

The first IBM PC clone, and one of the first luggable IBM PCs.

GUI for the masses.

You can take the plastic fish out of your Lian-Li Aquarium side panel, and put these in - great if you're already building a UV computer!
