Hmm, are tissues named on the same phonetic theme as Kleenex? Are cotton swabs named on the same phonetic theme as Q-Tips? Are photocopying machines named on the same phonetic theme as Xerox? No. Do those items function in nearly identical ways to their major brand counterparts, so that they don't need a recompile (nose job, ear reconstruction, paper resizing)? Yes. Are UNIX-like operating systems named on the same phonetic theme as UNIX? Yes. Can ALL UNIX apps run on a given UNIX-like OS (for the same platform) without a recompile? Probably not. Can they be called UNIX? No. *nix doesn't just mean UNIX, it means UNIX *AND* UNIX clones.
Firebird may not use an installer YET, but it would be DAMN easy to make one.
http://www.clickteam.com/English/installcreator. ph p - free, mentions that it was made with the free version, braindead installer building (I've used their previous installer product, and it was easy) http://nsis.sourceforge.net/ - open source, not quite braindead, but easy, and looks like InstallShield (if you use the modern interface)
I'll have to agree, too. Opera might not be free, but it's REALLY nice. However, I've never liked M2, and I'm using Mozilla Thunderbird. It's spam protection is adaptive (Bayesian), and not solely rules-based, like Eudora's (I do prefer the Eudora UI, though).
I'd say you could buy such a thing (yes, I used TinyURL addresses, but the Intel addresses are ~140 chars). Of course, I'd rather have a 1.4GHz P3, but that's just me...
I thought that HT SIMULATED dual cores, whereas this technology will have the equivalent of 16 CPUs in one package. Take 16 Pentium 4 w/o HTs, put them in one Socket 478 package instead of 16, and you have something like Sun's technology.
That's a 1.1GHz TRANSMETA. Even worse. At least a C3 1GHz can pull somewhere near 600-700 Pentium-series equivalence. There is a nice Micro-ATX mobo that takes Pentium M cpus, though - I might just buy one (it also has AGP and three PCI slots, and can be upgraded as much as a standard PC - just uses a Pentium M).
Umm, AFAIK, it IS a dumbed down version of Win2K, but dumbed down to the point that it only runs XBox-only DirectX apps. And yes, you DO see people running Windows apps on their chipped XBoxes - the same way you see people running Linux apps on their chipped XBoxes - by installing the appropriate OS.
I don't see a CLOSED-SOURCE NINTENDO APPROVED developer booting up a GC rigged to a LAN. However, if you don't WANT to buy the $10,000 (I don't know the actual number) devkit, or you want to release open source software, you've got to make "signed" games, or get around the signing process.
Unfortunately, I do. They're about the level of the AOLuser. BTW, they didn't eliminate the ISP part - SBC Yahoo Dial accounts were given to Prodigy customers. So, does that make them SBC Yahoo Dialusers?
Some OEM drives don't have them, but 99% of all CD drives that I've seen have at least the headphone jack. Almost ALL OEM drives don't have the skip button, though.
If you're a student or teacher at a K-12 or university, it's free. Hopefully OOo 1.2 will be as fast as SO7 (that is, Sun will tell the OOo team what the heck they did).
Better yet, try SO7. It's free for educational use, and it runs GREAT (Cel466 w/256MB RAM and P4-2.2 w/256MB RAM, both with Windows 2000). Same feature set as OOo 1.1, but MUCH faster.
In other words, you want Sun to tell the OOo team how they got StarOffice 7 so damn fast, right? (BTW, my Celery 466 with 256MB RAM couldn't handle OOo 1.1RC3, but SO7 works GREAT)
I like StarOffice, but it just doesn't cut it for what I need to do. I actually already tried that. However, someone posted a link to Visio 2003. I might just ignore the IRM and not have to dodge bad files on Kazaa.

I don't quite remember where I read it, but it might have been Just for Fun by Linus himself.
At least it's Micro-ATX, and not Mini-ITX (if you don't like Intel graphics)! It's the Radisys LS855, and their product page for it is http://www.radisys.com/oem_products/ds-page.cfm?pr oductdatasheetsid=1158.

Actually, Linus tried porting Linux to the Transmeta, and a Transmeta-optimized x86 compile was faster than a native Transmeta compile.
Well, the poster of the article DID ask for what distro was best on an Athlon 64.
It's the same chip on the inside, but not on the outside - it's a Socket 940 versus Socket 939 (yes, there's a difference).
Actually, AFAIK, the FX is a rebranded Opteron missing one pin, so that it CAN'T do SMP.
will the G5 run Windows?
I would think that if you hacked NT4.0 Workstation, it would run Windows quite well - just not a modern version.

They take CompuServe and WalMart Connect CDs, too (they don't say anything about the WalMart CDs, but they take all CDs from AOL-owned ISPs).
Unfortunately, I do. They're about the level of the AOLuser. BTW, they didn't eliminate the ISP part - SBC Yahoo Dial accounts were given to Prodigy customers. So, does that make them SBC Yahoo Dialusers?

I got the joke. I was just playing along!
That's why they make RAID 0 (not a TRUE RAID, but, hey - it's called RAID 0). It's for PERFORMANCE.

Well, maybe you could spell Kreme right, and then, STOP LOOKING AT KDE.ORG! Krispy Kreme is a donut shop, not a KDE app!
