Because clearly, he doesn't realize that he cut the life of his hard drives by 75% by stacking them 4 or more in a stack with NO space between them. That and the box seems to be made of wood. I don't know about Denmark, but in North America it wouldn't be too difficult for him to get nailed with an electrical violation.
I may be talking out of my ass here, but aren't there different solidstate technologies that may be classified as "flash memory". For example, if you took a bank of RAM and backed it up with battery power, you get a flash type device, no?
All I'm saying is that it is likely a different technology than what the common flash technology used in thumb drives, and camera cards.
If you might recal, none of them are really that fast. Think about the last time you wrote to a USB 2.0 thumb drive? Write that same file to a USB 2.0 hard drive and I bet it is faster. I know mine is.
What if you don't give someone a complete file? In analog world, you could give someone half a video tape and they could watch that part in their VCR, then get the other half from someone else. In digital world, especially BT you don't get sequential components and you rarely get an entire file from one person. So, since all someone sent was a few random bytes here and there, could he be found distributing under this ruling even though he never actually gave complete usable data?
They don't make them but they still have complete control over them...do you think they just sold all rights to the manufactured items? I don't think so...
Maybe this is some kinda weird test by the NYT. Since when did they start having articles you could read without going through their silly registration process?
It's called partner=rssnyt. Why more don't post NYT articles with it is beyond me.
Gigabyte out sources the PCBs (Printed Circuit Boards) it uses for its motherboards to a PCB manufacturer. These arrive already etched with the necessary circuit traces, pre-coloured and pre-drilled with the holes that are needed to insert components like the CPU socket and PCI slots. Other than this though, they are completely bare, containing no components or solder.
For the ignorant ones, the making of the PCB's themselves is not a simple process. Think about the traces you see on the surface, then place about 4-6 layers on top of each other. The fact that the PCB's are outsourced takes a huge load off the remaining process.

You would end up with refraction and spreading of rays as a result of the atmosphere. Otherwise, the sun would have performed the same function long ago.
The researchers even joke that the MicroJet injector could be used to make getting tattoos much more bearable.
Are they thinking of how to numb the area? Or to apply a "spray on" tatoo. I think the spray on idea is much better. Just think, it could be used to apply semi-permanent makeup for the ladies!
Wrong:
On October 20, the meter was redefined again. The definition states that the meter is the length of the path traveled by light in vacuum during a time interval of 1/299,792,458 of a second. The speed of light is
Being an engineering student and having professors hound you for correct units, it IS fun to analyze how people abbreviate things and see what it is that they are really saying, according to the common use of particular abbreviations.
If you have seen the latest high end Dell systems, you would have known that they employ a large fan on the back, with cowling on the inside that directs airflow between the fan, and the large heatpipe heatsink. Many professors buy these at work, and during setup, as the poster below me says, you can't even hear them.
I like that my comment, that says something that people need to be reminded of, gets marked redundant, while the comment AFTER me gets marked insightful for saying the same thing. Yes, I said it with a bit more attitude, but anyone who is actually interested in computers or technology should understand the difference between "doubling transistor density" and "doubling processing speed".
Is there anyone out there willing to support me on this?

Point to Point Protocol can be used to convert money? SWEEEET!
I think someone failed high school physics. People really need to learn how to write and interpret. Did anyone else notice this upon first reading?
What sacrifice of bootability?
1) Rip ISO using WinISO or similar utility. The resulting image retains all Boot Sector info
2) Update/Upgrade/Integrate/Hack installation directory
3) Open the iso created in 1), delete files in image (boot sector info remains intact) and drag and drop new files.
Where's the problem?

Much like shoot first, ask questions later? Gee, that works REAL swell...why don't we just cage up all non-whites while we're at it?
According to your "idea" that means that because every person has the ability to commit a crime, everyone should be in jail.

That's Redhat Enterprise 2.1, I believe they're up to 3 now...maybe a bit higher.

I'm not a linux guru, and I don't really claim to have significant knowledge of unix systems in general, but I must say that was pretty funny.

It's true that it was once defined that way, however, it has been redefined.

But then you're sucking up the cost of the phone line PLUS the dial up account. That would cost at least as much as cheap DSL.
