The company owes you nothing; they have no requirement to pay you the value of your stock. In fact, the value of your stock is based solely on what other people are willing to buy it for because they *want* part of the company.
As tacky as replying to yourself is, I should point out that I get 30+ fps in online gaming on that machine playing Quake III Arena and 15+ fps in the Urban Terror TC.
Could someone please reply with *actual* hardware requirements? I have a somewhat aging AMD Duron 800 machine with 384MiB of RAM and a Matrox G450 video card in my Linux box.

Just because one person or another is or is not a Christian doesn't mean they support the views of other Christians. The same goes for Muslims, as we should all know since 9/11.

A well-coordinated SEAL attack came to mind, however it was commented by a CBC reporter (www.cbc.ca) that some of the american special forces have been noted in border countries in civvies... probably marking targets in Iraq.
There are a number of employers these days who require forms to be filled out pre-interview. That bugs me, and its braindead, IMHO, but its still done.
There's almost no excuse now that download speeds have increased so dramatically with the proliferation of high-speed Internet access. When IE was taking over from Netscape, it was partly because it came bundled with the OS/computer and Netscape had to be downloaded. Now that you can download Mozilla in a matter of minutes, there's not much reason not to do it, if you know it exists.
You don't think a good ID theft ring wouldn't be willing to do in-person meetings to pull off this scam in a year or two when the 'net dries up as a source?
Thanks to comment http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=55018&cid=5378 313 I've set up a mirror of his/her mirror at http://www.fibrespeed.net/~mbabcock/mirrors/www.to mmarsh.net/xmod/
It is still downloading from the original site, so some pictures may not come up when you initially visit.
Good luck. I'll be throttling it in case it gets Slashdotted too badly. And yes, the server penalizes rapid reconnections.
Its surprised me any number of times that the first instruction set the Crusoe chip was designed to emulate (assuming they ever write translation software for other platforms at all) was the x86.
I would have thought that in the embedded and low-power market you'd get a better response out of having GHz StrongARM-compatible chips. Perhaps that market is already saturated? (compared with x86 though??)
I ran and helped maintain Windows NT 3.51 systems for a few years and they were stable as long as you didn't tinker with them at all. Maintaining modems on them was hell, and you certainly didn't want to run Visual C++ on it.
Signatures aren't as big of deal as encryption of course. I want my transaction to be signed by my private key and encrypted to VISA/MC's public key so that the intermediaries only have the encrypted version of the transaction data, not the raw data.
In the future consider using a * instead of the date; http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://members.tripod.com/airfields_freeman/ is a link to a full list of wayback-available pages.
I wouldn't mind AMD taking on a similar project. Perhaps each submitting a GPL'd compiler to the GCC group would get us a good blended optimizing compiler?
I use AMD's Code Analyst tool with VC++ 6.0 when on Windows and its quite helpful.
As a fellow canadian, I cry when I hear my friends and neighbours whine about the state of healthcare and education in our country. I remind them of the state of the american equivalents. I let them talk to friends who've relocated to the US and deal with HMOs and the like.
'Public school' is almost a four-letter word south of the border. Ah well, we do have it good, don't we? Our government actually asked for our opinions and input _before_ drafting new DMCA-like legislation.
Tell me when dragging files onto a CD-RW doesn't require fixating or closing the CD to allow it to boot up and when I can do it from a command prompt in all major operating systems, and programatically from other software, then I'll be happy.
He didn't break someone's trust for the sake of that information; he asked an anonymous person for it, and a friend (later) who knew what they were getting into (it seems).

Considering that Pepsi in fact used that technique 50 years ago ... a not too detailed summary of each's advertising techniques can be found here:

For all the flames this may bring me, the CBC webservers are still up and going well unlike CNN's (last I checked).
If you want to see the canadian news coverage of this event; try the CBC homepage above or http://www.cbc.ca/stories/2003/03/19/war030319.

Yes, yes, its tacky to correct your own post instead of just previewing in the first place, but the URI should have been http://www.fibrespeed.net/~mbabcock/mirrors/www.to mmarsh.net/xmod/, without the space. However, the original (misspelt) URI will also work.

Its pretty sad still, isn't it?
At any rate, I didn't have 3hr advance notification of the Slammer worm; it just didn't get in at all.
Welcome to stateful firewalls by iptables and some good old E-mail filtering.
qmail + qfilter + some good PERL programming + McAfee
Some of us read newest first :-)
It gets rid of the especially annoying "first post" posts.
I ran and helped maintain Windows NT 3.51 systems for a few years and they were stable as long as you didn't tinker with them at all. Maintaining modems on them was hell, and you certainly didn't want to run Visual C++ on it.
Applying hotfixes was hell as well, fwiw.
Or bitkeeper :)

... like the Soviet Union in policing, and without even the benefits of a socialist state. Joblessness, no health care, etc. and no rights either.
Fun, fun.
So why can't you vote for the people who make these laws -- that would be the lobby groups.
