This would be fantastic if it pans out. The Eastern Shore of MD would be excellent as salt water is available as is a lot nutrients in the form of poultry runoff. Plus it is close to the refineries of NJ. Anything to help clean up the Chesapeake would be a godsend.
Actually that would mean it is acting as a doped semiconductor. But because of the physics, diamond will almost never act as a conductor. And the positive holes are just the majority carrier. And either way current will flow, whether electrons or holes. It does not imply it supplies any energy.
I don't know if they owrk, but the benefit of using a keydrive is not moving parts. Hard drives are more likely to break from travel abuse than and solid state device.
They announced the Fedora transition a couple weeks ago. They really haven't gotten all the marketing and branding out in people's heads, but redhat linux now means the enterprise edition only.
I agree, but in this case it is unlocking hardware, such as Dell Laptops, which many people are forced to use windows and not linux. This is great news for me as I have a Dell with the broadcom wireless coming from work, and I am trying to run Linux and now this means the hardware is fully useable! This is great for the people under these circumstances.
However, I would get compatible hardware if it were my own boxen.
I live in Maryland and people just haven't been concerned about this. It is really a shame but no one even knows about this. The local press should have run a lot harder with it. All it would have taken was a couple hundred voters to call in and this problem would have gotten a lot better fix. Oh well, we'll be able to tell if Bush wins the state (>70% Democrat) there was something going on.
The main thing people loved about BeOS (which I bought back in 1997, rc3) besides the speed was the UI. How hard would it be to design a window manager that copied that for X windows? I wouldn't think it would be any harder than writing the dozen other UI. Or would it require a lot of work on widgets and what not?
Just for the record, just because a PS is 400W doesn't mean it consumes 400W. If a CPU/MB/HD sits idle most of the time it doesn't consume much power, and certainly not 400W. A couple idle boxes consumes as much power is one active one and allows for easier redundancy.
Isn't the range of Bluetoth like 25". This 4" has so few uses it is mindnumbing. I can overcome the 4" holding the 2 objects in my hands.
They should just keep selling to the DoD.
The magnetic component is probably not much stronger than for RF signals, the interference is low. The signal is also high frequency so it shouldn't effect monitors (they won't resonate with it).
This is a niche technology that can only do these limited buble applications. We will not be seeing MI cell phones anytime soon.
If they did I hope the Nobel Committe heard about it, because "inventing the magnetic monopole" would be the most fundamental breakthrough in electromagnetic theory since Faraday's law. A magneti monopole would violate Gauss's Law of magnetism.

Gentoo Supports AMD64 and it will stay up to date. Great for research purposes, cause you stay in control and it is free.

I've run flux and kde3 and gnome2 and enlightenment... xfce, which I haven't tried may hit the sweet spot between gnome2.4 and fluxbox.
I just rsync'd and it still isn't there. I'm so disappointed.
