they don't expect to actually sell any number of them greater than 5.
Car makers used to have a saying "Win on Sunday, Sell on Monday". Everybody knew that the cars winning the races weren't the cars you could buy but people assume that if their race cars are better than the competitors race cars, then their regular cars are better than the competitors regular cars too.
Dell is hoping that having a system this high-powered will drive up the sales for its mainstream models as well.
If you own shares of Google, do you get dividends? Coca-Cola is one of the few companies that pays regular dividends. IMHO shares in a company are just waiting to collapse from under you and become worthless if they don't pay dividends.
Since Coca-Cola dropped from $80 to $40 per share several years ago they haven't changed their dividends, so in fact I get more money the lower the stock price because I have it on automatic reinvestment right now.
Learn how to read. There's not a single line of code of Java used on the micro-controller. The Java is code being used on a Pentium 4, Windows XP Laptop.
Then I would pick whatever is used for french fry machines.
CIS majors don't deal with embedded microprocessor programming. CET and EET majors deal with that type of programming. You can use a variety of languages to program the microcontroller in a french fry machine depending on which microcontroller you use and which development platform you use to load your program onto the processor; whether its Motorola/Freescale, Zialog, Intel, or PIC.
For example, when I added a complete computer control system to an RC Car with a 20% Nitro, 80% gasoline combustion engine I used a Motorola 6808 with 4K of RAM and programmed it entirely in C++ when I decided that it was taking to long to program in assembly.
The story says she could be forced into bankruptcy.... no she can't. She's a stay-at-home mom. That generally means that she has no income. A court cannot force someone into paying a lawsuit with say... her husbands money or even money she already has. The only thing a court can do is garnish her wages. WHAT WAGES?!? Hahahaha. I say she defends herself in court, lets them win for 20 bagillion dollars and then just ignore requests for payment ad infinitim. OJ Simpson is doing it, so why can't you?
Sounds great, but what about forgetful people? So called "Strong Authentication" or 2-factor authentication sounds great in theory. Rather than just cracking your password, a woodbe theif would also have to steal a physical item from your posession. However most people are dumb and forgetful, they would put a piece of scotch tape on the physical item and write their password onto it so that when the woodbe theif pick pockets them, then they don't have to even bother trying to crack their password. Sounds great in theory but it dosen't work - like communism. In summary, it is the authentication for communists.
If you want to fight it, fight it, but I'd put fair money down that your exasperated tone is more a product of consistently defending and rationalizing your illegal downloading (be it theft, theft of services, infringement, whatever) than the weariness that comes from championing your cause legitimately.
Thats easy you half-wit troll. I download all my music at WWW.MAGNATUNES.COM
The RIAA want to sue everyone so they'll stop downloading music and actually pay for it. Sounds great, but what about their customers? Broke-ass college students may download the music for free now but would become addicted to always having new music and when they graduated and had massive mounds of disposable income would begin buying CD's in earnest. Why would a college graduate want to buy a CD from a company that sued their best friend back in college? Sounds good in theory, but doesnt work - like communism. In summary - suing your customers is advertising for communists.
200,000 may seem like a lot but the United States had to kill over 400,000 Japanese soldiers in the Phillipines alone for McArthur to return. The United States had 14,000 casulaties... 2,000 or so of those were deaths.
Only systems released by Sony are Playstation, Playstation 2, and Playstation Portable.
Sega had the Master System, Genesis, Game Geneie, Sega CD, 32X, Nomad, Saturn, and Dreamcast. Dreamcast was the last system they ever tried to release and was same generation as the Playstation 2, although it came out way ahead of the other 3 current consoles and wasn't nearly as advanced... more of a "half-generation" console.
When I used to download free music from Audiogalaxy, I used to buy tons and tons of CD's. Maybe 2 CD's per week. The lawsuits against music users in the US helped get the message accross about how evil the music industry was, so I stopped downloading music. And I also stopped buying music from them. Now I get music exclusively from non-RIAA sources like www.magnatunes.com
Funny, if the lawsuits had never happened, I would STILL be buying 2 CD's per week. As it is now, I havn't bought a single CD from a member of the RIAA in 2 years I believe.
The planet's name is Nibiru. At least thats what the Ancient Sumerians called it.
They Sumerians knew about all planets we currently know about, including Pluto which we didn't discover for ourselves until 1930. However, they also knew about a 10th planet past Pluto that they called Nibiru. According to the Sumerians, this 10th planet had a highly eliptical orbit and orbited the sun in the opposite direction to the rest of the planets.
The Sumerian's even believed an alien race, known as the Annunaki, inhabited this planet and possessed space travel technology that allows them to visit earth while their planet is inside the asteroid belt because of its highly eliptical orbit.
An integrated PCI Express controller would solve the only down-side of AMD's current use of an onboard memory controller. That downside is added latency when using system memory for the graphics subset.
In AthlonXP and Pentium 4 architecture, data from the graphics card would only have to pass through the North Bridge to get to the memory. However, in current Athlon64 architecture it has to pass through both the North Bridge and the memory controller built into the CPU. This slows it down a bit.
Adding an integrated PCIe controller to the Athlon64 would get rid of this slow-down once and for all... however, this problem has not really been much of a problem because graphics cards have so much memory nowadays that they hardly ever have to access system memory anymore.
Nope, that unfortunately could only be obtained on an original CD and can't legally be downloaded. As with most DVD Playback software. I was using PowerDVD since that came with the DVD-ROM.
I was using a 500MHz K6-2 when Windows 2000 came out. I actually consider a 500MHz K6-2 old hardware but the K6-3 was sufficiently more advanced to be only slightly old hardware.
A 550MHz K6-2 with 320MB of RAM and a Rage 128 Pro All-In-Wonder has the darndest time playing a DVD or even a high quality DivX Movie. However, switch it out for a 400MHz K6-3 and the DVD and the DivX movie plays fine.
when Sarah Brightman first started gaining popularity many decried how she was "corrupting the form."
That reminds me. *starts playing Sarah Brightman's cover of "Who wants to live forever" originally performed by Queen*. Yaay! Its like the song is new again.
They changed a bit more than just the gender of Starbuck. They changed the entire genre of the show.
The original BSG, although very high budget for Sci-Fi show back then, was more along the lines of a Space Cowboy show with the cheeze factor of Andromeda, Xena, and Hercules.
On the other hand, the new BSG is a Sci-Fi Drama with scenes intense as those you'd expect from 24. Although, I'll be the first to admit that the 1st season of BSG was massively better than the last season of 24.
One last thing, you'll have to watch the entire Mini-Series and the 2-hour season premire of the 1st Season in a single day to get completely drawn in. If you do this and do get completely drawn in, you'll be ready to cry when you see a certain someone put a gun inside their mouth at the end of the season.
I also forgot to mention Knoppix (Always keep a copy of Knoppix on your person at all times) and YellowDog, YellowDog has been really useful for PPC machines like the Pegasos.

Oh yeah, I did this entire project at DeVry.

While I've done WindowsXP on simmilar machines as well, I think its a painful XPerience with anything less than 500MHz...

Anyone got a video of that skit? A torrent of it might be nice. I'll see if I can find it somewhere.
