Methinks you haven't looked at what can be done with a PC these days. I work for a company that provides hardware that front-ends the largest websites in the world, and it's Intel hardware with PCI-X bus support, and PCI-X NIC's. These boxes can drive over 4Gb/s of traffic. How many networks drive that much traffic? The point is that with the right software, the hardware can fly. The hard part is the software. If you do the math, a 33mhz 32 bit PCI bus can handle about 1Gb/s, which if run equal xmit and receive, comes to 512Mb/s. A 64 bit 66mhz comes to about 4Gb/s. A 133Mhz 64 bit PCI bus does 8Gb/s, and gig cards now support this. So, even if you drive four Gig cards at wire speed, you are just reaching the top capacity of a single 133Mhz 64 bit PCI bus. Now consider that higher-end motherboards now have more than one PCI bus that can run at this speed, and a PC can make a very good alternative to a router. Again, the key is the software...

If you read the article you would realize he is leaving on good terms, and helping out as he leaves will help him get a good reference if he needs one later. There is no downside to him helping, and only a benifit if he does.
I don't know what type of support position you are in, but I'm a sr. support technician at a networking company myself. If you are in such a position, the best thing is to spend what little time you have writing faq's for people, providing the best (but concice) description of how to do various tasks you do on a daily basis, and provide any documents you reference on a regular basis to those that will replace you. On the other hand, it would probably take as long as you have been working for the company to document everything you learned, so you have to be able to narrow it down to what is really important. Good luck on this task, and good luck on your new job!
Add completely compliant gzip support. Did you know that mime types are handled differently depending on if the content was compressed? It does. There are problems with compressed XML too. Try as I may, I can't break the compression in Mozilla now.
And how many webservers run HPUX with B1 security? As he said, MAINSTREAM.

Obviously, you don't have children. If you knew that you would be dead in 10 years, you may do things differently to prepare for it, like saving money for their college instead of for your retirement. It changes things when you know you don't have to prepare for some things, but have time to prepare for others.
I can top this. In Hoboken, I was at a birthday party for one of my co-workers, and I had parked my shitty dodge neon on the street. When I came back, my back window had been busted out, and a black trash bag was stolen. Not my laptop in the other seat, not the netgear switch I hadon the floorboard. Guess what was behind door number three in that black bag? Garbage. In a Garbage bag. Go figure. Somebody had stolen my trash. I was pissed until I realized nothing else was taken (although the window was broken) then I laughed as I thought about some gang member doing some initiation ritual, with other guys watching, breaking my window, grabbing the bag and running. Image his surprise when he opened it. Yea, that cheered me up.
Yes, but what would the throughput have been like if it had been to MARS? We really need to be preparing our protocols for interplanetary distances after all.
From what I gathered, this allows the compiler to create an instruction that can do a lot of work in one instruction, NOT for the processor to decide to create an instruction. Think of it this way, if you know you need to do something like an array multiply many times, the compiler could create an instruction for it, and then use it as needed. The key to this is that the instruction set can be optimized on a program basis, so you don't waste gates on SSE2 instructions if you don't use them, etc.
This would compare with FPGA's I believe in that most FPGA applications are fixed once loaded, although I know that there was talk about stargate systems on slashdot (http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/02/15/16292 37&mode=nested&tid=126) using FPGA's for general processing before.

What I would love to see is this project Eros to be declaired to be valid in legal status, then start taxing them on the value of the property. I think that paying taxes on Eros would provide that much more of a basis for them to say that the property is theirs.
A company called Foveon has developed a new sensor that measures the RGB values at the same location, not at three distinct spots. If it has a fast enough reaction time, then it would so the job, and not require the overhead. The real question I wonder about is the memory usage of such a beast.
I agree that the person can be brought to justice, but for different reasons. This worm was probably NOT written in just 1 day, it was written in the time leading up to it. The person responsible probably had access to the code in question, and in all likelyhood was in some way involved with ISS. They also probably had customer lists and IP's of clients that could be used for the initial infection. Net result, one fast worm.
From the LinuxBIOS article, apparently Tyan now even ships boards with LinuxBIOS on request. As it is open source, I don't see how a board that supports LinuxBIOS will ever be required to have DRM. From the LinuxBIOS article, the most interesting point I found was the impact that money had on vendor support. As soon as RFP's for millions of dollars of equipment required LinuxBIOS, the vendors supported it. If you support it, it will continue.

If they waited for K9, then they wouldn't have any bark left in their bite. You have to throw them a bone for putting Intel in the dog house.
