I know one who thinks like that. He has all his classical music records on HQ mag tape, a huge amp with russian tubes and TONS of EM shielding between everything. I laughed at him until he played the same tune off analog source, cd and 128kbps mp3. He is right - this digital crap is no match for the analog one.
Could a laser board like used with a phosphor-doped board (to be used as a screen with a little remanence) be used as a tv ?
Can it scan|display 570 lines 25 times a second(pal) or 480 lines 30 times a second ?
Will this setup cost less/last longer than an lcd projector ?
... alltrough both eula prohibits it i can say: MS sql sucks - oracle rocks. Not for a speed reason - for the stability reason - MSsql _WILL_ crash whenever given a reason or not, especially when the ones who must take care of them are sleeping or are out of town. or both. --

HP (HPPA) machines do this. But it's done with a combination of the kernel and the hardware/firmware. If a page is found to be faulty is noted on the PDT (Page Dealocation Table) and removed from use if possible (if it was previously user by the kernel the machine will dump core - if not it will just spit horrible errors). The PDT is stored in a flash and has 50 entries and it will be cleared when a memory is changed.
And this is done on big, expensive, production servers - Linux should addopt this as this really works (the PDT machanism kept one of my HP servers stable with a bad 512mb mem module until i could shut it down)
BSD is now a server OS and Linux a workstation one. Alltrough both stride to become both.
I'd wish a linux with all the bsd's features or the other way around. And i'd wish a BSD kernel/distro with all the features from all the BSD's. example: I had to install linux instead of freebsd on a machine because fbsd doesn't support (in a stable release) IDE cdwritters. I had to install netbsd instead of freebsd on a small home server because freebsd does no support sowtware IDE hdd spindown (a netbsd atactl port someone ?). I used OpenBSD instead of linux on another machine for security reasons.
I just want a Debian packaged distro of an os that supports everything linux does - has the openbsd's security - frebsd's speed - netbsd's small size - macosx's cool interface and runs on cheap intel hardware. Or "the right tool for the right job" approach is better ?
... do you breathe in that thing ? After two hours of virtual walking though virtual beaches filled with virtual gorgeous women there will be no breathable oxygen left in the bubble.
And wouldn't the sound be atenuated by the sphere's walls ? (they have to be preety thick to suport a human without bending/breaking)
And the thing looks preety exprensive. I'll stick to a cheaper Actual Reality Sphere.
Please mr. Russian president - dont't kill all the cute fish and the corals in the pacific ocean. We, the/.errs know a better place for you to drop the MIR:

Yep you're wrong - they were all 'jocks' - eg ex-air force, gung-ho all- Russian heroes... :)

"Value" is not "low end", is just cheaper than "high end".
You insulted my P166mmx !

Nah ... You'll be better with IDEYES !

If it's so, I want to move to Silicone Valley NOW ! :)

Yep - many of the xboxes will be bought by the linux/*bsd geeks who will install linux on them for a cool TV-TypeWritter

There IS something like that. It's called a plotter. :)

We'll all going to buy win3.1 licenses

whoops - typo ... sorry

They won't fit: (think as metric vs. us/uk system and 220V vs 110V (actually mir uses 48V or something))
