look at virt-manager for KVM, it's not as polished as VB but it works well. With virtD i can have VMs startup on boot and shutdown cleanly on boot as well.
And if you provide source most distros will be happy to work with you to get your softwware in. Closed software on the oterhand will get you the dev guide for distro, and a "host your own repo" sort of response. This isn't because closed software is evil or anything, simply it's a lot of work to do if you don't have source and a sane build system.
for example see handbrake in gentoo. It's build system does dumb things and doesn't use system libs, and so it's still not in yet. ship[ping bundled libs could be overlooked if they would provide them all in the tarball and not download them at build time.
mmm MTU "where the men are men and the women are too". I do miss the gentoo mirror there though, i used to get almost 1MB/sec from them, but i'm no longer at NMU, so it's not worth it.
to be fair, well behaved ALSA apps work great for me. Flash isn't a well behaved app as it does't seem to understand that it needs to grab a threaded instance of alsa and not just write to the device.
It sure would be nice if ssh could set up audio forwarding, and per app gain control. Other that those, not sure i'm wanting much more. Maybe a nice way to make my 5.1 sound card look like 2 or 3 stereo devices. Game audio over the speakers, voicechat over the headphones.
so the fault is solely with those that did the collecting, and not those that let that data out in the first place? if you give me your info willingly then i may do WTF i want with it?
It's not just the macbook line, the 13" macbook pro, the 13" unibody macbook, the Mac Airs, and the mac mini all use core2duos. I can get a i5 in a 13" notebook from fujitsu for around the same price as the 13" macbook pro.
There isn't much of a res jump for the 15" model, 1440x900 instead of 1280x800, With things like the ipad 1024x768@9.7"(btw i have a 1280x768 9.7" from 2003 if you care) and the iPhone, 960x640@3.7", i would expect that a 1440x900@13.3" or higher is doable. Make it a "add" and I'd likely take it.
Why is the macmini still a core2duo, and the 13" macbook pro? Also where is the mac pro mini, you know something with a i7-860 or so in it in a 13xx socket. with a discrete video card? I want a tower-ish cased mac, but with more grunt than the mini, but not a xeon work station.
... nothing requires that you get all your apps from there yet, but you...
FTFY
I'm not saying that they require the app store now, but what about in 2 years time? I'm a big fan of apple cases, iMac excluded, but it's just not worth the lockdown. How long until the hardware will only run signed OS's on bare metal, and the only way to run windows is some sort of VM. if you get to at all?
Own specialty repository to address some corner case
Hmm sounds like gentoo's overlays, but with more suck as you first have to make your own deb by hand and hope you can find the build deps, and the runtime deps, etc.
I agree that apple "app store" is nothing like debians(ubuntus by extension) repos.
Not only that, is there facetime for linux, windows, or mac? Google does more than just phones, and the linux support is usually pretty good, even when it is only "works with wine"
well with a DVR the content is playable before it finishes. With torrents it isn't. Also depending on your tracker there may be ratio requirements, which makes it a good idea to simply hang on to them for a while and let them seed.
I have found that the quality of the new app to be lower than the disk, mainly becase my ps3 had all the post processing turned on for blue-ray content and thats what the ps3 disk was. Also I lost the ability to change the volume via the ps3 with the app. The UI is much much nicer though.
Things like the pbs shows that are interlaced look really bad on my TV now, all of the angled lines are really jagged.
so how has the rest of the world worked around the much higher SMS rates, and MMS, and such?
Also why does the physical level tear down the connection so fast? maybe it should wait a bit longer. Perhaps the spec needs to define a minimum open time, and a maximum connection rate, if it doesn't or they need to be changed.
If you want to run bulk searches, and use the API there is a cost, regardless of who you are(excpeting federal investigations, and other court orders, etc). I'm failing to see where the problem is.

kvm + virt-manager works great for me, although the "give the usb device directly to the guest" ui could use some work.
newer versions of VB allow you to give the guest HW accel'ed 3d and such, it runs well enough to play BZflag.

how do you propose to make them all the same yet different?

Also it uses a core2duo ... which is rather old now as well. granted the mac mini, the macbook and the 13" macbook pro all use it too.
Ohh and the 13" air is a 1440x900 screen, so they could ave just updated the 13" macbook and eliminated a screen size they needed to buy/stock.
so whats the deal with the iPad, it's not a phone so it must be a computer.... yet i can't do as i please with it. Same for the iTV....
Except there is evidence for apple liking to lock down things, look at the iPad and iPhone, iTV.
I'd buy an iPad over a netbook in a heartbeat if it ran osX, and had an unlocked bootloader.

No warning here either, never have gotten one in the last 2 years, nor do i expect to from them any time soon.

rip your dvds let me know how fast the storage goes then.
that is what is eating up my 1TB drive atm, except it's my kids, not my niece.
you know except that [HD] box next to the title.

why would the accelerator peddle be controlling the turbine? how about the VFD that is controlling the 3 phase induction motor instead.
Now i would agree that the gyroscopic effects could be an issue, but there is an axis that cars don't do much rotating around.
it did, I thought it lost money... see: "Hollywood accounting"
