I guess.. is because cellphones will work better in space than in water. However, If I have enough money to build that spaceship, why would I want $50 million more?
So the karma thing is because of some US comments?? I live in the US... I like the US.. still I think they were trying to still the idea from the original attempts of satellite knock outs.
Bad karma doesn't change minds. It just encourage people to say worse things.
Yes, there are different countries with many different problems. Unfortunately violence is everywhere. But you are hidding some important information... which is the worst about north-american culture (and I say North... because I am an american.. south-american.. for some reason US citizens confuse the fact that America is a whole continent and not just a country)... kid's games:
Check here I quote: April 14, 2003
New Orleans, La. One 15-year-old killed, and three students wounded at John McDonogh High School by gunfire from four teenagers (none were students at the school). The motive was gang-related.

Cold Spring, Minn. Two students are killed at Rocori High School by John Jason McLaughlin, 15.
... and let me know what's the difference... perhaps that they don't have a clue about what they are doing?
If a high-school student can get weapons that easy... how come the US is safe?
But yeah.. perhaps is much better keep looking for copyright, patent and trademark issues, right? In the mean time, this little psychos plan something to kill your brothers or sons.
If you are keeping a 60min file to go over on 6 mins... and kill your battery doing so.. over and over. Wouldn't you better.. skip it? If you don't want to hear it... delete it!
Besides, how long does it take to your walk-man FFW a 30min cassette?
I thing the fact that you are not able to hear MP3s is more important.
And again you're lossing the point. So the real market of this thing are spoiled guys, just because it looks cool... and they will have to update to the next one to watch some movies on the LCD installed on the back of the seats.
I agree with some people who believe it can be, and in fact it is done lot cheaper by other companies.
By the way, do you think they won't sell hacked Xbox consoles in third world countries? Well.. they do hack them because you cannot affort to pay US$50 for each game when you can get pirate CDs for US$3 at the corner.
Get back to reality! Not every one want to have the coolest gadget... if you have money, make a hole on your BMW dashboard and mount your Vaio [http://www.winstontiao.com/bmw_z3_roadster.htm], if you don't... too bad.. buy an iPod it has now 30GB more (you can even get it for free if you believe in those mails). But please don't try to make this fancy old PC look like the last resort for 3rd world countries when cheaper (not so cool.. sorry) machines can be built. If money is an issue... I don't think you'll look for the PC that glows at night.
The TV is way cooler!! But that is not the point, the TV has already the "screen" and better definition, resolution and if you set the brigth to the highest... you don't have to be worry of burning the "bulb".
Encoded information just increases the overhead so the efficiency... will be reduced
However I heard of this code:
1: enable, on
0: disable, off :)
TCP is just fine improvements are yet to come.
So the insurance may rise because you haven't intalled the patch KB835732, because it could allow an attacker to compromise a car running (if it is still running) Windows and gain complete control over it.
"In 6 hours I switch to SP2 and I could save on my car insurance"
I don't believe this guy said that. Is it possible that he's thinking that reducing the price everyone will buy a PC and there would be an increase in potential customers? Would people buy an OS for $XX in countries where software piracy is not even reglamented??
This guy is even out of his mind or they really have some evil plans.
Why would I pay $300 for a $3 CD I can get on the corner?
I guess that's a nice move.. since your "patched" book might not look good. But a patch for the game can also go out... an so.. the happiest after all would be those that downloaded the game illegally because they'll have two endings instead of the one of the legal customers.
Does the signal is a sine? Certainly at some point it will become peaky because of non-linear behavior of transistors... that is the point.
Yeah... right now you have sub-woofers and lots of extra stuff that makes you think your $3 FM receiver sounds better than ever!
It comes with your point of view... Why do you need an equalized then? Do you thing recording people doesn't know how to do that? so you can make it better than them giving some gain at 60Hz? Yeah! sure... You just want to hear.. what you want to hear... in the way... you want to hear it.
Maybe AOL wants to avoid that USPS follows the MS steps and cut the AOL spam with those "free internet" CDs.
Being a widely known spamers, why would they support something against them?
God! I'm tired of throwing AOL CDs, what a waste of... trash bags.
What about playing Quake or Doom... that has to be something... really annoying... at the end of the day... not only your headache will kill you, but your constant blinking and neck pain won't let you do anything else.
I would try it though.
In my classes of Electronic Devices, I heard (in my dreams apparently) that tubes have a linear behavior that transistors don't, this makes the working region wider for tubes than operational amplifiers. I do believe that it sounds better... but I won't pay to hear the difference. (Besides.. who will repair my grandma's stereo?).
Vacuum-tube amplifiers differ from transistor and operational amplifiers because they can be operated in the overload region without adding objectionable distortion. The combination of the slow rising edge and the open harmonic structure of the overload characteristics form an almost ideal sound-recording compressor. Within the 15-20-dB "safe" overload range, the electrical output of the tube amplifier increases by only 2-4 dB, acting like a limiter. However, since the edge is increasing within this range. the subjective loudness remains uncompressed to the ear. This effect causes tube-amplified signals to have a high apparent level which is not indicated on a volume indicator (VU meter). Tubes sound louder and have a better signal-to-noise ratio because of this extra subjective head room that transistor amplifiers do not have. Tubes get punch from their naturally brassy overload characteristics. Since the loud signals can be recorded at higher levels, the softer signals are also louder, so they are not lost in tape hiss and they effectively give the tube sound greater clarity. The feeling of more bass response is directly related to the strong second and third harmonic components which reinforce the "natural"' bass with "synthetic" bass [5]. In the context of a limited dynamic range system like the phonograph, recordings made with vacuum tube preamplifiers will have more apparent level and a greater signal to system noise ratio than recordings made with transistors or operational amplifiers.

while falling behind in things like games
Then, what would I like that processor for? Longhorn? M$-Office 2005?.. or my antivirus that now has a huge list to run over everytime?
By the way, anyone knows what happened to Cyrix after National Semi. bought it? They disappeared!

Merely, profit reasons
Will my karma be bad forever??
I think the intuitive method of learning should work fine. The problem arrives when someone starts teaching you how to learn.
When you get to a place knowing nothing about the language you can get even more than being taught by someone.
Self learning is the best way to learn... unfortunately nobody pays you to learn what you want but what you should.
So the karma thing is because of some US comments?? I live in the US... I like the US.. still I think they were trying to still the idea from the original attempts of satellite knock outs .

US.. vote.. because I can't... but you.. should!
maybe THIS was the beta version.
File a lawsuit for environmental damages...
It has to be something to stop this people of filling my mailbox with useless CDs.!!!
Let's call it SP"AOLCD"M. I support your efforts!
Stop the SPAOLCDM!!
I think you are missleading this conversation...

The weapons exist. Does everyone has to have one? Probably you just need one stupid with enough power to start such a stupid thing...
. html, and you can check http://www.pcf.city.hiroshima.jp/peacesite/English /Stage2/S2-5E.html... is it true?
I do believe.. there are lots of stupids with power
Just in case.. I got this http://www.pcf.city.hiroshima.jp/peacesite/indexE
What about:
"Abort earth destruction, ABORT!"
"Abort??... sh*t... I knew I forgot to declare some subroutine!"
As if we really need to improve the weapons for the next war...

Keep working... I'll figure out how to put laser aim to my stones, and heat detectors to my sticks.

Now you know why computers are $400
Hardware: $100
OS : $300
Tell everyone such a stupid thing: priceless
Hardware is cheap, software is expensive, software with hardware keys is ridiculously expensive!
I don't believe this guy said that. Is it possible that he's thinking that reducing the price everyone will buy a PC and there would be an increase in potential customers? Would people buy an OS for $XX in countries where software piracy is not even reglamented??

I heard about devices against piracy... I think it's a little bit extreme.
I wonder... Where did he find the time to participate in the study!!!?
Does the signal is a sine? Certainly at some point it will become peaky because of non-linear behavior of transistors... that is the point.
