Fireplaces are good for localized heat, particularly if you use a duct and fan to move the heated air to a part of the house away from the fireplace. They're also good for radiative heating, which isn't affected by air movement.
They won't appeal -- the suit was dismissed at the request of the plaintiff, when his backers realized that going through with it would involve having to reveal things like their names and corporate information.
Uhm...generally this stuff is backed by data. What you really meant was "...backed by data that comes from your instruments", with an implicit assumption that anything that you don't have instruments to measure cannot be valid.
For things that cannot be measured by instruments, there are techniques such as double-blind testing or statistical analysis that can be used to make meaningful measurements.
From their press release: ClearSpeed Technology, a leading provider of high performance, low power chip-based solutions, today announced the ClearSpeed CS301, a multi-threaded array processor that enables dramatic improvements in performance and power consumption for intensive floating point applications.
But what are these other "high-performance, low-power solutions"? Looking at their web site, the CS301 is the company's only product.
Thinking further on this: This is a security hole that allows remote execution of code on the affected machine. Sure sounds like what's needed to write a worm!
Any bets on how long it'll be until the first ones show up?
Turn off your middle mouse button?
Which statute of limitations? The one for the legal system, or the one for vigilante justice?
ATAPI (the protocol IDE CD-RW drives speak), is SCSI commands sent over an IDE interface. Think "code re-use".
Since when has "prior art" stopped someone from filing for and recieving a software patent?

I wonder if current systems have a similar EULA?
I saw an article on a security site a while back detailing how this could be extended to TCP as well.
They didn't want to be embarrassed if the rocket blew up on launch.
It's about damned time!
The standard Linux benchmark is to time how long it takes to compile the kernel. Another benchmark I know of for Linux is the POV-Ray benchmark scene.
Local transfers are cheap, until you realize you need to re-wire the 100 year old dorms for gigabit.
Since every transaction is logged, they just need to look for students who are transferring large amounts of data.
Bets on how long until someone puts together a "gateway" program to connect this network to an outside p2p network?

You tell me.
I have, but it's a damned expensive abacus!

And modern desktop CPUs are what -- 3-6 Gflops for 80+ watts?
No, it isn't real until someone's started the Linux port.
At least in the US, you don't pay for incoming calls on a land line. You do pay for incoming calls on a cell phone.
True C64ers know what the ";" did at the end of line 10.
Wouldn't it look better if there was a space after the "YOU"?
Development work can be done on an emulator, but you need to run the finished product on the real hardware.
Gamecube, PSO, Xbox, what's the difference? They're all computers.
