i think this notion stems from the fact that people can afford to drop money on the latest and greatest PC, and do, because of their mentality...but sheesh STOP THIS CRAP!
woo, you rule! i live in Roselle, i make the trip to Fermi every now and then...one of those being for the severe weather seminar april 8th, but they have a really cool intro peice about fermi, and about the neutrino studies.
greater chance of getting struck by lightning than getting injured, let alone dieing, in an airplane crash....why bother with all this safety bullshit?
"Linux worked on these machines when they were state of the art. Is it such a revelation that it still works on these machines?"
thats a bit broad of a statement...after all, i could say windows still runs on a 486 with 8mb system ram....its windows 3.1, but its still windows... but modern linux distros still play nicely with aged hardware...THAT is the point.

i dont care LESS if a professor wants to PROMOTE their views. Its when they force their views on students, who are there to learn, be moulded, are open to plug in your ideals. If a professor held a debate with an opposing person, or gave a lecture in a public area, great, more power to him!
It is when the professor assigns an essay where you must talk about [insert political party], and anything else will get you a lesser, or in extreme cases, failing grade, even if you did A+ work on the essay itself. Stuff like this happens in ENGLISH class, no less! what does grammar have to do with political view?

Botnet creators tend to build something into their bots a bit better than a password. I know of some people who run botnets a few hundred large with their host coded into them. Yes, they do have a way to update the bot in case their host changes
yeah but you could write a script to do it for you, then it can be done on as much space as the script takes 1. Composition #(n): Play middle C. Rest (n) second. Play middle C.
why not open source some of your APIs. or at least come out with an "emulator" or a "windows layer" for Nix. i would pay for that if it worked 90% of the time
