MRAM in 2004?

Hell, even 98 has it. That reminds me of something this box did when it had the HP pre-install... Sometimes, jabbing the power button would get it out of a crash long enough to reboot (it wasn't set to shut it down). Once, I did that, and I was told Windows couldn't shut down because a messenger service was running. On Windows 98. WinPopup wasn't running either.
may even, someday, allow us to simply reach out and touch an on/off button to turn off Windows in lieu of going through a ritualized shut-down procedure.
Hmm, if I touch my power button, everything closes out and I get a message saying "Windows is shutting down..." That technology isn't called MRAM. It's called ATX (power supplies, anyway) and ACPI.
I do. Somehow, they could hack JavaScript to THINK there was a mouse click, when there wasn't. Also, you could have to click through a hierarchy of ads to get in the site at all.
No, he probably bought a Logitech mouse. Some Logitech mice (*cough* their lowest end optical trackball *cough*) NEED the driver to activate the scroll feature. The Logitech driver has spyware with it. Granted, you can disable it (or not install it), and the driver will still work, but...
HPs already come with at least one spyware app (WildTangent Web Driver). NetZero and Juno pipe ads into your box for up to $14.95 (with server-end compression). Logitech MouseWare has spyware (optional, but...). eGames Collectors Edition has spyware. Opera has adware (that's a difference - I'll use adware, but I won't give personal info and clock cycles to GAIN - and it's disabled by registering or cracking;-)).
OT? WTF? He was talking about adware on Linux, and FBM replied with Opera. BTW, there's a difference between spyware and adware. I don't mind adware as long as it's non-obtrusive. It pulls 50KB tops everytime it refreshes the ad. Besides, most pure adware can be cracked to disable the ads. However, I WILL NOT tolerate spyware on my PC. I've seen all of the various GAIN apps, all of the filesharing apps, BonziSHITTY, and others take a 2-month old XP install from slow (P3-866 w/128MB - what did you expect?) to dreadful.
Did anyone notice that she paid a $29.95 service charge? Sounds like she got screwed twice. Once by some snake-oil KaZaA Gold salesman, and again by the RIAA.
Commell makes P4/P4M mobos (P4 on a fucking Mini-ITX mobo, though?) in the Mini-ITX format. Lippert is going to release a Pentium M Mini-ITX mobo (there is a difference between Pentium M and P4M). How's that?
The CODE isn't messed up, but his second print statement printed "HELLO ";A$;" HAV A NICE DAY!" (where A$ is your name) Improper grammar (HELLO BHTOOEFR HAV A NICE DAY - commas, anyone?) and improper spelling (HAV A NICE DAY).
Cards? Why? What's out works fine right now. SIMMs? Nope... IDE? There are several, made by//SSH Systeme, and some guy (forget his name) that makes a CF AND IDE adapter. 10Base-T? Apple ALMOST made this, but//SSH Systeme is known for their LANceGS card.
Personally, I think a modern system should be built on an enhanced version of the 65832 design (google it). I'd try for an ATX mobo here. That way, we could use ALL cases.
Wasn't there something for the Atari 2600 that let you play tapes into it? I remember seeing some software that used it, except with a.wav file instead. Actually, that's an idea - use an emu with.wav files for "tapes".
Using a MOS 6501/Motorola 6800 was EXTREMELY hard, as they weren't pin-compatible with the 6502, or in the case of the 6800, code compatible (might have also been the 6501). The Z80 reference was probably from someone who used a Z80 card on their Apple II. They DID exist, after all. (How else would CP/M have run on the good ol' A2?)
Nice try. You took that one out of context. FWIW, he was referring to a presentation of his done in PowerPoint. AFAIK, there weren't many other presentation packages on the market, and Linux didn't have a GUI. Besides, he didn't like Macs, so that left Microsoft platforms.
Actually, that's a good idea. How big is this guy's board (I didn't look - I thought $200 was too much, but I DID RTFA)? We could throw that, an AT PSU, an Apple ][ (or ][+) KB, and an LCD in, and we'd be ready to roll.
Lunix Next Generation - it seems there's an Apple// port in the works... I wouldn't run it on anything with less than 64K RAM, though. The Apple 1 has 8K RAM max.

Google toolbar let me play Shockwave games - which Opera only lets me play if I've got requested popups allowed (and it can take their JavaScript...)
Chances are the page was a bit more complex than Slashdot.
The data miner helps rank the Google index. Not spyware. Just like Alexa collects URLs you visit to index them in the Web Archive.

Babelfish versions (for "Die, pop-ups, die!"):
German: Those, pop ups, those!
Italian: Die, POP-UPS, die! (WTF?)
Japanese: Die, pop-ups and die!
Korean: Die, pop-ups and die!
Russian: To diye, priest- UPS, to diye!

Pentium M. There's a difference. I won't explain it in detail here, but call it the Pentium 3.5 Supermobile.
But... but... I need my wallhack!
RTFLS (linked site - http://www.vintagecomputer.tk) - he's working on a cassette interface.

Actually, there's some EEPROM space from D000 to FEFF. BASIC goes in E000 to EFFF, but that still gives you D000 to DFFF and F000 to FEFF.

Use the Linux license. It is the GPL, plus a clause stating that stuff running on it doesn't have to be GPL.

LVDS is the laptop subset of DVI. Therefore, it shouldn't be hard to make an adaptor.
