It's not just the 3ware firmware/3dm/driver you need to worry about with AMD64/SuSE9.0.
If you had more than 3gig ram, you needed to take care of other things too. You need to upgrade the kernel (the original one had immense troubles with iommu (needed by the 3ware cos it's not hardware 64 bit capable, so iommu was needed to help in mapping to the full 64 bit address space).
2.4.21-178 worked fine with this. (it's up to 193 iirc, now)
Another gotcha you may need to fix is the motherboard's bios itself, some tyan boards had trouble with memory over 4 gig without an update (among other things).

There is no "phase shift" to speak of on a B&W telly. The colour signal "piggybacks" the monochrome one and is totally ignored by a TV incapable of showing it. The TV itself has only one pigment on its phosphor.
I'd say "lucky guess" would be closer, unless he saw some publicity photos in a magazine and forgot about them.

I remember both, always preferred Tales of the gold monkey.
So named not just because of the bar, but because the pilot episode involved the nazi quest for a mythical artifact made from a highly heat resistant metal that they could use in rocket design.
Our hero manages to get to the cave containing this "gold monkey" and get out just as the volcano erupts, only to find when he gets back, that the monkey is made of bronze. (Then it cut back to the cave mouth with lava flowing around it, which is now revealed to be the golden monkey in question. (They'd walking into the cave through its mouth.)
The amazing thing is, it was only ever broadcast in the UK once, and I still remember that episode. (Don't remember anything else about it though... memory is a weird thing, innit)

If you live in the UK, Monkey is currently nearing the end of a repeat run on Channel 4. (Tuesday nights, [err, wednesday mornings technically] at around about 1am-ish.
They finished with series one and moved onto series two a couple of months ago (meaning we have a different Pigsy now, and the horse changes to a human at regular intervals):)
Agreed...
Others that've stood the test of time due to good writing (and sometimes good acting):), despite the incredibly crappy special effects and terrible 70s fashion are...
The Tomorrow People (original, not the 90s remake)

Not necessarily.
What stops company X from making a "pact" with company Y? If company X is getting DoS'd, then company Y helps defend by launching their own counter-strike.

How about this for a worst case scenario...
Company X uses product registration for DDoS-Avenger[tm] 2.x, DDoS-Avenger[tm], when attacked, phones home, Company X then triggers all other registered Avengers to launch their revenge attacks, thus making it a DDoS in their own right.
Virus Writer Y sees this, and thinks... I could use that... Hmmm, what happens if I launch a DDoS against a bunch of people running this avenger thing, from other boxes already running this avenger thing...
Goodbye internet, you thought the slashdot effect was bad, imagine it at a global scale.
DDoS-Avenger isn't a trademark of spike1 enterprises, but hands off the name, it's mine:)

Blank lines can BE the entire program too...
:)
as long as you wrote it in whitespace (yes, a programming language based entirely on whitespace does exist)
Yes, that might all be right and proper...
But you completely lose the "HELLO! I'M BRIAN BLESSED!" effect.
