Yes, everybody but node3 understands what you mean. But since this is/. we have agreed to only bitch about any usage of Windows, and not the sacred computer itself. Its in the TOS somewhere.
I think the point would be to run anti-virus software.
Although, if virus writers would limit their CPU usage to just the second core, thus freeing up the first one, maybe people would stop bugging me about their system running so slowly.
You really can't argue this one? The argument you need is called math.
$5 OS + $4 modem = $9
$0 OS + $6 modem = $6
If they are concerned about unit prices - this is easy. IF they have other concerns about switching over the Linux due to support or application compatibility issues, then the cost of the modem is irrelevant anyways.
I live in upstate NY, and the local Wal-Mart has a sign that says "due to short supplies, PSP sales are limited to one per person". This is taped to the display that has been completely stocked since they arrived.
It's late and I can't figure out how 3 mods found a Delphi comment so funny. I can't even imagine 3 mods even knowing what Delphi is.
So, where's the egg? I happen to have D7 on my machine right now.
Please say that the easter egg has something to do with some way to completely shut off that damn Delphi Direct thing!!!

DeCSS could be called a "filter" I think. C'mon everybody, quit bitching and start looking for loopholes.
Did anyone else notice the translucent plastic effect the Start button has now. Now that's innovation!
You asshole! You stole the website I'm developing!!!!
I'm contacting my lawyer right now!
How is that flamebait. Seems rather legitimate to me.
Put the right spin on it.
Microsoft Excel spreadsheets used in business have been proven to cost a lot of money due to mistakes.
Maybe he means "swims" in the pool of a cruise ship.
Somebody patent a process for identifying the patents used within a particular piece of software.
Don't laugh - you know MS saw this article and has somebody working on a proprietary format for storing this information.

Yeah, I know. If the guy was really so smart he should have invented a decent web server!

The real test of performance will be running DIR at a command prompt and seeing if it is finally as fast as a 486 running DOS 5.0 was.
That's a hard question to answer. Maybe you should ask Jeeves.
Because mom-says-so-thats-why. RTFA next time
Ya know who else wanted cheap broadband - Hitler!
Hey, lets ask Russia!

I started a website for my high school alumni a year ago. Since day one, it has always said "no spam, no advertisements", etc.
April fools, I put a big Classmates.com advertisement on the homepage asking people to click on our new sponsor.
Here's one of AtariVille, USA
Hey, I found Pac Man.
Seriously, anybody know what this is?

Get a totalfark account and see how bored you get reading "the latest news". Quantity has nothing to do with quality.
Have you ever considered that there's not much interesting stuff going on with technology any more?
While there is something cool once in awhile, It's highly unlikely that there will be a couple dozen interesting developments every day.

What about white noise?
Prices haven't changed in a year on CPUs and RAM. Maybe this will at least force the low to mid level stuff to drop.
