If someone can effectively turn the real world into a giant model. Something like Matrix will eventually happens!
I for one know many people are literally waiting for a 3D world like this to 'play' inside. When visual reality catches on, would this be the killer app?
Think about it. If Apple runs on x86. They probably can lock it down so the OS won't run on anything but their machine. However, there are absolutely no reason they can't run window on their machince. Better yet. Make a system that run OSX with almost completely native support for windows's application will not be difficult. If that happens. Whoever bought an Apple will have less of a regrate since they can switch back to windows if it turns out they don't like OSX. Where those who buy a Dell or any other system in the world won't have the luxary of running both OS in the same system. Think of the appeal this will have for people who still have reason to stays on Window yet want to try out Apple! Apple really did thought it through this time. I tell you what.

It is a bit too early to get anywhere in this project. First, let's say the brain is able to think at similar human speed in 10 years. It is still a new born and require a lot of learning and experience to 'grow up' like a real human. The ability to be run in computer doesn't necessary make it grow up any faster, it will still be a very long time before it can understands words. Let alone understand that what itself is.
It sound like the only way to infect the machince is to find hole in the e-mail client. Something like that isn't even possible anymore on a fully patched Windows XP or above Machince. It may be connected to the internet but we don't even know it's IP address. How exactly do you hack it?
I have been using Firefox on Slashdot for a long time and the rendering error have always been there on 90% of the time I load.
After upgrading to 1.0.1 it seem to have been completely fixed for me.
Thanks!
If they incluce Cryix, VIA C3, Trans processor. Possibly event a G3 G4 or Alpha and Sun system as references to see how far Processors development have gone instead of making it strictly x86. Then again. Tom's hardware is usually just x86 site.
I don't know about you but have you ever tried to connect two pc together with wireless cards only?
It wasn't possible the last time I try. Wireless card doesn't work like a crossover cable would.
If you can play it online... What is stopping you from doing other stuff online? Maybe you can even use it as a tiny VOIP (indoor) phone. Use a special cartiage for web browing.. etc!
Ever since I moved to Canada, everything seem to have a little mix of communism in it.
Hey, it might just be the best of both world. More freedom and less responibility.
.. and we have tax on CDR and tapes and other stuff for the longest time. However, the tax itself is not really meant to make copying legal. But instead, the tax were simply there to minimzes any damange that you might be doing! What if you are using the CDR for personal data only? You are technically not required to pay it. However, the process of recovering those tax are lenghty and trouble some. So most let it go.
What I don't understand is. How could someone pentlies you for something you haven't done yet? I think this is where the system become flawed. Owning a tool and having the potiental of doing something is NOT a prove of being guilty. You need to have prove of using it in illegal means!
Sadly enough, 80% of those devices only DO use them illegally. So the fact actually justifies the tax, even if it doesn't really make sense.
The only question I got is, where did those money went? Did they actually give them to any artists? If not, why even tax it?
Why does it takes so much money to make a remote control car? Don't we have those for kids like ages ago for less then $100? Scales it up, still doesn't justify the high price.
Similar comment probably already been posted. But I like to point it out again. This gadget obviously intended as a semi joke. And perhaps actually carrying out a decent point. Don't think into it too much guys.:)
The only VNC i have used is RealVNC, PCanywhere (Old) and Remote desktop for MS windows. I realize the best and most speedy one out of them all are actually Remote desktop that came with WindowsXP Pro and such..
I still use RealVNC for internet connection. The Java browser that does not requires software download are particularly useful. But perhaps it is time to check out the alternative...
I didn't realize there are so many out there at all!
I seriously doubt Virus company write their own virus and release into the wild. There are enough virus already. They could hardly keep up.
What I worry most is not about the attack toward the anti-virus company, all the anti-virus provider have to do is to set up temporary ip to dodge any Live update DoS. Similar to what Microsoft have done in the past. However, What sort of signal is this sort of news giving to the rest of the coder? Making virus make you more powerful? I have heard somewhere that if you control 10,000 machince on the internet, you are unstopable. That only lead me to wonder how many people out there actually control that amount of machince, and worst yet. What if they join together as an alliances and destory anything in their path for immature reason? Dalnet came to mind.. don't know anything else that have been heavily damaged by DoS. Can anyone else point out?
And watch them grows, right from the material they post about, and the skill to their drawing, all the way to their artical and follower.
They truely did came a long way, but at no time have I been able to predict a community can grows into such respectable manner. A Video game community!
And to top it off, this is only the second time they try this. Maybe it will turn into someone big.. Hell, it already is something big, in just two years.
Considering how much Penny Arcade have grow in the past.. I can not imagine what Child's play can turn into. It could become something huge, something national..
We shall see.
Remember, there are still a half the connection out there still using dial up. Not everyone of them have cable or DSL, but pretty much everyone have power.
Adding additional feature to a good product would be a good idea, which is what Apple is doing to the iPod now. Making it great at one thing, then slowly improve it..
Trying to stuff a camera, mp3 player and digital picture viewer together isn't going to threaten the stronghold iPod have. Unless it does both of them better then the iPod does.
And with a 1.3mp camera.. don't think it will do much.
a@b.com (8,820) are the actual winner of dummy e-mail address.
1@2.com follows closely
those easy to type dummy address sure beat those longer one don't you think?

If battery is a problem, how much energy does this arrany of motor use?
Actually his tempo is quite accurate compare to the video game itself considering this is a human playing the note.

Yes, Englishis my second language. If you can't understand it. Sorry. I tried my best.

Another way to go somewhere.. Now only if we have a reason to go.
Remember, there are still a half the connection out there still using dial up. Not everyone of them have cable or DSL, but pretty much everyone have power.
They are simply enforcing an existing law.. why not?
