I usually go to GetRight, their prices are quite good, and there is one person who doesn't tell me to reformat my hard drive and come back when the problem happens under knoppix.
I'd still get a Powerbook and run Virtual PC, if the performance is any good.
What is the performance of VirtualPC like on PPC? Anyone know? Emulating a PPC would be slow on x86, being CISC, but how fast is it to emulate a CISC on a RISC processor?
I wont by AMD, they have burned me twice, and they show very little in the way of RnD.
Well, what about x86-64? Not only did they manage to produce a 64 bit processor, they were able to make it implement 32-bit instructions at a higher performance level. And they pulled the memory controller onto the processor die, increasing performance even more, and on SMP this increased performace much more by not making all the processors share memory.

I take it you've seen the video too? ;)

I'm a Linux user, and use x86 assembly enough that I don't expect to switch in the near future.
So I just use VMWare, which is IMHO one of the greatest closed source programs I have ever used.
I live in Adelaide, and in the city, there's a computer store about every 40m along some streets ;)
I get my stuff from some cheap place, good place to buy from, if you can understand people that have a really strong Vietnamese accent.
And who may or may not have ever heard of Linux.
But I take it there is no way to use them in applications, and you have to use the CISC instructions?
Those are light shows, and are somewhat different to one person with a laser/scope.

P4s do run really hot, but when they start to overheat (ie. you take off the heatsink) they slow down, and this lowers the amount of heat output.
Really? Which place would that be?
Sounds like a fair bit of R&D to me,
PPC is made by IBM, and MIPS is made by MIPS.
You can have a regulator the inside of the earthed metal box, and extend the box all the way to the backplate.
If you put the circuitry inside an earthed metal enclosure, that would protect it from RF inside a PC.
What you don't mention is that the GIMP interface is a lot like that of Photoshop for Mac.
Or at least, that was the impression I got in the 5 hours or so I used it at school. I missed the right-click menus though.
If you know how to solder, you could make a simple voltage regulator circuit, which just provides what you need, using something like the LM317.
There are other regulators you could use, but I don't remember part numbers for them.
Unless the asteroid hits the fortress...then you'd be fucked ;)
Of course, there may not be a place to land, and all the dust in the air could stop the engines.
Yes, it will log EVERY system call, so you may wat to pipe it to tail.
You have plugins/script-fu/python-fu, why not take out the main UI, and do everything using GIMP's built-in scripting/plugin engine?
No. Give it to them for free. And then sniff their password ;)
No, I didn't actually...every Xbox I've ever tried has had huge controllers.
I live near a mountain range...I wouldn't think that it's a good place to ditch.
Can you explain "hotmail.com" then?
I keep going to one of those sites...I can never remember that it is php dot NET.
Not that I program in php, I just have a friend who needed me to look up something he said he couldn't find: mail()
