Um... time to get your facts straight. The king of ketchup employees people in other countries to make their products....FOR LOCAL DISTROBUTION. They have a plant in Israel that makes product for Israelis. They have a plant in the US that makes product for US citizens. The difference with this is that "offshoring" companies are sending jobs overseas for the "product" to be made or completed back in the "home country"
Not exactly. Using SMP helps in other ways. The OS/resources need managing and when his application is using CPU 1 at 95-100% CPU 0 is hugging curves and taking names at about 30% doing memory and disk management, etc. He is having lock-ups because he has one cpu. More RAM, faster disks, more CPUs will help him out. While the application may not be able to make use of multiple threads (hypothetically, it very well might be able to) the system as a whole sure could use multiple thread execution. HT is not the answer as they both rely on the same cache and also similar parts of the same CPU.
BTX is probably going to be a niche unless intel really swings weight behind it. The reasoning for BTX was for better heat dissipation. The need for this was due to the problems with the Prescott cores et al. were getting way too hot. However, BTX sucked for a few reasons. First and foremost, it was single CPU only and much less tolerant of airflow problems. Intel's move to the Pentium M (P6) as their bread and butter will likely make this less of an issue. This is a good thing. I would like to see a redesign in case architecture, but not to BTX. Taiwan was also not eager to do the switch because it was more expensive and not a good payoff for the trade.
Mirror finishes are bad. You need something with minute pockets (because even your mirror finish will have them) to retain the thermal compound. The purpose of lapping is not to cause the surface to be perfectly smooth, but rather to make the surfaces flat and allow for them to rest on each other so as to not have any gaps due to uneven layers.
No, but had you taken a math course instead of "Rapier like Wit 101" you would have realized that YYYY was the starting year and the lapse between the starting year and the ending year was X, hence the ending year would be YYYY+X.
By the way, i thought jokes were s'posed to be funny. Maybe that is why I didn't get it.

But he is not saying it is in the public domain. He is saying that from year YYYY until year YYYY(+X) he owns the copyright and can make demands as such. Once YYYY(+X), it becomes public domain and then, as such, can be done with as pleased. Until then, the demands as to copyright notice are his to make.
You mean ONE out of about 70,000 did that? wow. The point you obviously missed is that you are not safe if you simply do not open executables. That is just stupid. You totally missed the point about OLE in.TXT (not executable) as well as macro function and boot sector viruses as well as other malware such as malicious javascript and vbscript "applications" that can hose a machine.
they call them viruses (not virii). the 's means ownership.
Also, there are plenty of viruses that do not need an executable to be run in order to infect a machine. Boot sector viruses will hit you if you boot off of infected media like floppies or CDs. Using a floppy on an boot sector virus infected machine will transfer that infection to that floppy. Macro viruses will infect documents. There was even the trick of using OLE embedded objects in traditionally non executable documents such as.TXT files. Don't even get me started on worms.
Your solution is like saying as long as there is a door on the house, nobody will ever steal my stuff.
It runs on lots of platforms. Intel != x86. x86 != intel. He also forgot to mention PowerPC etc as an alternative and forcing it into a lower price point because of this.
And some planets are not much more than super dense gas. About the only thing solid on them is their subzero cores which contain things such as frozen/metallic hydrogen.
Actually, no.
Blue diamonds are not that rare. Pale yellow diamonds as well as brownish colored diamonds in the K-M range are lower in value. However Fancy Yellow diamonds in the S and higher range are quite expensive. Blue diamonds are expensive, but are not as rare as pink or red diamonds. Pinks and reds are orders of magnitude higher in price compared to yellows and blues. As well, do not buy from a vendor who claims they sell "blue/white" diamonds because this has been called a deceptive practice when diamond vendors would sell white diamonds that had blue flourescence that made them appear slightly bluish in hue when in sunlight. Many diamonds exhibit flourescence in many colors. They usually lower the asking price as well. Blue flourescence can be a good thing if it is moderate and does not cause a milky appearance because it can offset a light yellow tone and make it appear a whiter stone.
Isn't this exactly what Novell's Red Carpet is going to be like? Ok, it is not free, but can't something be moddled after it? Hell, I know that my company would install Red Carpet because it is cheap enough and would hopefully get the job done
what are you using now? Please don't say PIX. I have tried like hell to get my company to stop using that crap. Its miniport drivers screw up networks like nobody's business. I hate it with a passion and wish they'd go to netscreen or something else. The firewall itself is not bad, but I wish we didn't run it on a 2K box.

Ask them for the specifics of their new EFI "BIOS" so you can work with it.

What would you call liquid/solid hydrogen? I was not talking about subzero K, but subzero C.
And some planets are not much more than super dense gas. About the only thing solid on them is their subzero cores which contain things such as frozen/metallic hydrogen.
I plead the Fourth
My company is looking at Mandrake and SuSe at the moment for that very reason. That and Redhat's support is horribly overpriced.

the point he was making was that the errors were not CPU based. You are either lucky or lying, but I don't care
what do you mean by that? I am lost.
Nah, he probably just doesn't know how to build a computer
and the OpenBSD default install with space networked IPv6 still only has 2 holes found.
