  1. Re:NOARCHIVE on Authors Guild Sues Google Over Print Program · · Score: 1

    that is rediculous, Don't you think the authors wanted people to read their books. Thats why they went to the trouble of printing and distributing them around the world at great expense. So does this mean google can copy it? Well following your logic, yes. Unless the book is encripted.

  2. Re:ALL OTHER COMPANIES ARE WASTING THERE R&D on Experimental 4G Phone Service Faster Than Cable · · Score: 1

    wireless will never be able to go faster than wired systems. Todays infrastructure might not be able to support 100Mbps, but tommorows will. It seems you think that the existing cell infrastructure is all you need to do this. That is not true. You will need new Towers, new licenses etc. The best tower spots are already taken and they cant pull the old ones down as there will be existing customers. Also the fact that all these cell systems are based on some sort of multiple access system, basically means the more people on, the slower it goes. Wired systems dont have this limitation. Also the big issue I have with you statement. How do you suppose the massive multi exabyte backbone of the net is going to go wireless. how about the transatlantic traffic, I hear signal strength is pretty weak out in the middle of the ocean. So Wires are going to be required for some time to come.

    and the little troll thing in the town up from balmora, upstairs in the orcs house, didnt have quite as much money, but infinitely easier to get to.

  4. Re:Depends on the hardware on Windows Nearly Ready For Desktop Use · · Score: 1

    I forgot to mention, this was a new pc with no operating system and only one harddrive. the SATA one. I think the motherboard did something fancy and windows install found my SATA drive fine

    I didnt have a problem, my windows copy found the SATA drive fine and went about its buisness like nothing was different.

    and Im pretty sure that a floppy drive is a good idea still. just so you can send stuff to old pcs with no USB, which i had to do 3 months ago.

    Agreed that there could be an option to install drivers off USB, but apart from that, I dont agree with you
