The 80286 was more common in a plastic package (PLCC) but there were also ceramic leadless packaged parts, and a ceramic PGA part. Not sure if they ever produced it in a gullwing SMD package or not.
Similarly, attributing a Windows worm to Windows, when it's really an Outlook worm, is a misdirected accusation. Unless it's in the NT kernel, it's not a Windows worm. It might be a Microsoft bug that causes the problem, but that doesn't make it a Windows worm. The same worm could strike on a machine running Outlook in a bochs sandbox or under wine.
Linux fans degenerating down to semantics is really, really sad.
Yes. Apple has an exclusive monopolistic agreement with the Music Industry. They keep their DRM in place, and they get access to sell the music in the catalogs. No other online music seller has said access.
That is a monopoly relationship.
Not everybody gets to sit in the expensive seats, dude. So cram your classist 'peanut gallery' comments.
Pop quiz. Can you come up with an IT equivalent...
See, that's part of the problem. This site used to be full of weirdos and tech-freaks and actual honest-to-god nerds.
Now there are people who casually throw out terms like fucking 'IT' as if that's who hangs out here.
Here's a clue for you all: (no, the walrus is not paul)
IT is the fucking monkey that makes sure the network is up and who makes sure there is enough paper in the cabinet next to the laserjet and the toner is fresh.
This is supposed to be about more. The forums are supposed to be filled with people who know most of the common TTL part numbers well enough to figure out what a computer board does just by reading them. It's supposed to be full of people who have laser tubes they salvaged and modulate to beam signals to their friend across the street.
And shouldn't you IT people be changing toner in the fucking laserjet5 on third floor, anyway?? Hop to it.
But the 'sukkah star' after a UID number means it's a chump who is paying cold cash to hAndover.net or VAwhateverwecanshill.com or whatever the hell the suits who own this site call themselves now.
Shit, I mean, I remember when the whole 'display UID' thing became part of the code. Wasn't it because someone was masqueradeing as Bruce Perens and as we all know, from that movie 'RevlonOS' or whatever the hell it was called, Bruce Perens can be a fscking whiner.
The numbers are meaningless. Anybody who is IMPORTANT here has gone through a handful of Accounts by now.
Every time I've tried to do anything useful on a Mac I've ended up wasting time because someone in a windowless room at Apple Headquarters already decided for me exactly how I am to perform that task, and it isn't how I am accustomed to doing it.
Not really. In order to boot NetBSD on my SE/30 I have to maintain a tiny MacOS partition on the drive and use a native MacOS binary to boot over into NetBSD.
Apple hasn't released the documentation necessary to natively boot NetBSD, or Linux for that matter, on their classic hardware.
WHY? (is there anybody left at Apple capable of even comprehending the old baroque Apple hardware?)
I was referring to Big Labor and the Union Bosses.
What the hell are you doing, bringing up the 'working man.'
It's a benefit to the 'working man' that Big Labor (i.e. the AFL-CIO) has been busted in the mouth recently. Maybe they will start being a sensible organization, i.e. not lackies for one or the other of the main Political Parties, if taken down a notch or two. As an 'in the pocket' allie of political interests, the worker's interests are completely taken for granted.
That's certainly what the 'democracy within the Unions' movement that caused the AFL-CIO split is working towards.
Are you one of the union lackies or something? Why the angry profanity?
My experience has been that the online gas-price reporting websites are inaccurate. They are not kept completley up to date, and they often exclude the small mom-and-pop operations who sometimes have the absolute LOWEST price in an area. Plus, I like to buy my gas local when possible (it's nice to go to a service station where you know the proprietor, rather than one operated by corporate-droid #16584), so when all I see are the big oil corporation outlets listed, I just refuse to operate based on that info.
But if you only buy national-brand gasoline, you're probably in good shape.
One point is, the people with this years latest SUV are the ones doing the whining. They're always the 'loud' people in any crowd. The folks with the 10+ year old cars (my Saturn is a '93) just grimace and bear it.

There's definitely a market for Lexus logos to slap on your Toyota, then. Will eBay answer that call?
The 80286 was more common in a plastic package (PLCC) but there were also ceramic leadless packaged parts, and a ceramic PGA part. Not sure if they ever produced it in a gullwing SMD package or not.
I have Intel 80286 processors in the PGA package.
Oh, and while we're at it, aren't these virii more specifically Linux/i386 and BSD/i386 virii ?
Nearly everybody thinks PeeCee when they hear 'Linux.' And there are better Freenix alternatives than Linux for almost every other architecture.

You base your computer and OS choice on what you can buy at the mall???
Try telling a New Yorker that he has no choice in where he lives, that it's mandated by the government.
He'll laugh in your face, dude.
I would readily agree to a contract where I'm not bound to do anything, too.
Never, ever underestimate the Chinese. They have the manpower to brute force projects.
So did Stalin. And, uh, it's not a coincidence.

Fortunately, he didn't let that interfere.

I guess as long as you're happy only being able to use such features with Google, it's all just hunky-dory.
Yes. And I remember being on a mailing list in about 1997 where someone was talking about what a wonderful thing Amazon.com was . . .
I think a lot of people trust google.. i do.
whooo! the value of google just went up a notch.

Yes, but included in the price of that laptop is the cost of OSX already.
So should we be able to demand a MacOS X Refund? Will Raymond dress up like Darth Vader for the rally??
Why should anybody pay for 'bundled' software they won't be using?
Possibly they mean increasing the DRM on the iPod and iTunes operation, to keep their monopoly status with the Music Industry.
Apparently a long time self proclaimed fanboy of the Gundam anime series
I wonder if he'll have a Billionaire's Tantrum when he discovers the NASA firewall blocks the Tentacle Porn websites?

For now, Google is the enemy of our enemies, and is perforce our friend.
No, actually all Google is right now is the ad agency who haven't blown their image yet.
Watch them carefully. Power corrupts, and the corruption increases as the power does.
