a) Hot air rises... venting should be at the top (front or back)
b) Power supplies create heat -- they should vent, not be intakes.
c) Air flow, aside from the above, is just air flow -- get lots of it.
It might just be an "improperly" designed redbook audio cd -- that is, the first track is a 'normal' ISO9660 data track for computers to read but in a format that only 'normal' CD players understand properly and one that probably isn't standardised.
I'll just assume that you never learned what the SI (and that 'I' is for international; bigger than you) unit prefixes mean.
mega = 10^6 _everywhere_ with an exception made for bytes, and only a mild exception. You'll notice that harddrives come with packaging that states "1GB = 1000000B" to avoid confusion.
Just on the note of music here, I know that what I want when I buy a CD or an MP3 online, besides the music, is for the author to be compensated appropriately. I think it would be a great public service to foce music companies and their ilk to publish how much of a CD sale goes back to the authors (whether to pay their debts or in their pockets) and how much is kept by the record company.
I must say, seeing an object actually fall apart properly would be great in, for example, a racing or mech simulator... I'm tired of having cars in a racing game bump off walls and each other as though they were made of ice...;-)
But you can no longer purchase address blocks from IANA, for example (IANA or ARIN? I forget now) without purchasing a/19 block -- that's a lot of wasted addresses if you just want your own permanent/24 or/27...
However, had the same bit been transfered without multicast, it would have been sent once for each of those links and the _same_ amount of traffic would have been generated on ISP B's local network. The only reduction (in your example) is for the link between A and B.
I can see how it would be difficult to inter-charge for this, but its not that difficult to track memberships of multicast addresses and log how many of your users you're going to send the packet to.
When you consider how efficient multicast is for broadcasting of live event video and audio and/or for peer discovery (such as a non-centralised-server based P2P package), its a shame networks don't support it.
All things considered, I was unaware until the last year or so how poorly multicast was supported on the Internet. I must admit that I've come across very little good documentation or code examples in my travels either although I've come up with quite a few.
My first point for both sides was aimed at pointing out that it isn't always intutitive to even know how files and directories work.
When I first purchased MS DOS (version 4.01, all the previous versions I used came pre-installed) it came with a manual that described the hierarchial storage of data in directories on drives and how files worked along with bits like system and hidden files.
I'd be very impressed if Linux had tutorial material along that line for the beginning user. Established users may prefer something different, but giving a book to a computer luddite in the hopes of them learning to use Linux before Windows would be nice.
PS, Robin Socha has had an earful from me a number of times (or an eye-ful, I guess) about his attitude on various lists I'm on.
Looking at, for example, your mecha toss example (which looks great, btw), how much computation time is required?
Also, how difficult would it be for your algorithms to be changed to allow for dynamic forces to be inserted (such as motor movements attempting to right the mech as it hits the ground on three of its feet)?
Multicasting video assumes that all your viewers want the same piece of the video at the same time. This is true for video teleconferencing or live events but almost never true of something like adcritic.
1) Figure out what the 'explorer' is and how to get to your file.
2) Click the name a second time slowly, or select rename from the File or right-click menus.

Just for the reason that some of us are perfectionists and want things to be inherently 'right' or to make sense on their own without labels (but use labels anyway).
PS, yes, I read the manual for everything I get...
Totally off topic, but it is quite true that wine, whiskey and other well-known fermented or fruit beverages were the only way to avoid drinking the very polluted water in most parts of the world (should we give africa grape-vines instead?).
Only in the last century, to my knowledge, have we even known how to preserve fruit juice without letting it ferment (thanks Welch's).
The method to distribute the key may be highly bound to specific points in space-time; that is, one may be able to get a large number of long code books to one's agents by giving them to those agents before they leave for foreign countries but it becomes very difficult to get them coded messages the same way (in person) unless they come back for them. Delivering new such codebooks in person may be possible for future agents as well.

I should learn to use preview ... someone please mod my last comment down a lot ;-)
Here's that Google search on NURBS rendering I'd mentioned.
For anyone who's interested a Google Search turns up several good results for NURBS.
Anyone else irritated by the senseless use of PDF documents for their figures and references?

I have a feeling that the dam is not being built for China's reputation but rather to supply power or water to people ... silly person.
You obviously aren't getting enough breadth of content ... that's all.
There are a lot of noncommercial sites out there with good content on them that aren't "fansites".
I'd be happy if VLC would learn to use XANIM's proprietary drivers to play video formats it doesn't know about.

Trespasser's game engine would been a great sell for MMORPGs though, in which player-object interaction is so much more valuable.

Integrated Drive Electronics != Integrated Development Environment.
It doesn't prevent fermentation, which is the point I made about Welch's.

PED is definately more accurate than LED ... SPED for single photon emitting diode seems just as accurate though.
