  1. Re:Odd Choice of Brands, Maybe [Compaq] on HP to Offer Custom Compaq Gaming PCs · · Score: 1

    I remember back in the day when all Compaq desktops required special Compaq RAM, so you had to buy it overpriced from them (~500mhz era). Oh, and every Compaq I have ever seen has been a skanky piece of crap.

  2. Re:PRICE? on GPS for GBA · · Score: 1

    Because less is more.

  3. Lazy you on Building A Museum Listening Station? · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    You wanna have slashdot do the work you're getting paid to do for you? How original.

  4. Re:Commodore 64 on Using GPUs For General-Purpose Computing · · Score: 1

    Brilliant, except, that's what GPU's were made for in the first place.

    Of course, you were probably speaking in more general terms.

  5. DRM Virus on Boucher's DMCRA To Get A Hearing On May 12 · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Would be better if someone wrote a 'virus' that looked through people's harddrives for DRM-protected music and then stripped the DRM from them silently. That way, when people start getting subpoenas for DMCA violations, they can just say they had a virus, but removed it later. I don't think it would stand to reason that people should find some way to put the DRM back in place on the files that lost it, hm?

  6. Here are some more free books on Free MIT Engineering Text For Download · · Score: 4, Informative

    Here (introductory physics.)

  7. Re:This is how far I got on Cyber-Soap Returns From The Dead · · Score: 1

    I beat you to it...

  8. Re:Remember on Intel Drops Tejas, Xeon To Focus On Dual-Core Chips · · Score: 1

    Nokia is a really favored company here (Europe). Motorola is not. Crappiest fucking phones I ever saw. Also, you forget that a lot of journalists are in love with the mac for some bizarre reason.

  9. Re:FP on Intel Drops Tejas, Xeon To Focus On Dual-Core Chips · · Score: 0, Troll

  10. Re:MSN, AOL, GBA Only on Majesco Gives GBA Text Messaging, Wireless, Video · · Score: 1

    Except, what would you type with?

  11. Re:This has ripple effects on other businesses. on MS Sales Growth Limited by Delays in Windows · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Yeah, it sure would be nice to replace the current OS near-monopoly with a full-blown hardware and OS monopoly.

  12. Re:Easy enough on Sasser Author Under Arrest, Say German Police · · Score: 1

    Yes, but this is you making a decision to leave your door open, for yourself, you're not providing houses with open doors to people for money, are you? Microsoft is making that decision for 80-90% of the worlds computer users. They should be accountable for their product, just like every other business/industry is.

  13. Re:Easy enough on Sasser Author Under Arrest, Say German Police · · Score: 1

    It's MS' fault for writing exploitable code. Sure, noone's perfect, but they should strive to be, and pay the price when they fail at it, instead of some random german kid who knew how to do stuff with their bugs. He should go jail, but not be financially responsible.

  14. Uses? on DSI Delivers up to 3GB/s with Solid State Disk · · Score: 1, Troll

    What would the use for this be? I can see how it would be nice to have no loading time at all in every game etc, but is anyone except NASA going to use this now? Any ideas?

  15. Re:I'd pay five bucks for my MOTHER-IN-LAW on Red Hat Desktop Unveiled · · Score: 1

    Well, yes, but not on my systems. And it would be hard for it to spread.

  16. Re:Rights on Estonia Embraces Wi-Fi Wireless Internet Access · · Score: 1

    Silvio Berlusconi you mean?

  17. And the good part is: on Estonia Embraces Wi-Fi Wireless Internet Access · · Score: 1

    We (Norwegians) own Statoil. Herlig å være norsk... :)

  18. Re:Good ... on A Public Library's Linux Success Story · · Score: 1

    If you're talking about the content blocking (are you?), it is handled at the proxy level. Obviously. So no effect.

  19. Re:It has to be said. -- Pentium bug on AMD Beats Intel in CPU Sales · · Score: 1

    The original pentium had a bug that would say 2+3 = 4,9999999999 or something. I'd consider that faulty, Not in manufacture though, but design.

  20. Sony Ericcson on Linux Smartphones On The Rise · · Score: 1

    t610 seems to be what you want.

  21. Re:Strange thing I noticed... on Jens Of Sweden MP3 Player With OLED, Ogg · · Score: 1

    No, just sausage fingers. Ick...

  22. Re:Damn... on Previewing ATi's Radeon X800 XT & X800 Pro · · Score: 1

    3dfx called it SLI.

  23. MikeRoweSoft on Microsoft Assembles Patent Arsenal for Longhorn · · Score: 1

    was small.

  24. Re:I'd pay five bucks for my MOTHER-IN-LAW on Red Hat Desktop Unveiled · · Score: 1

    Linux antivirus? What is this you talk of? I've never seen any..

  25. Re:Shift a key over and throw in some numbers... on Passwords That Should Never Be Used · · Score: 1

    I always take some random sentence, take the first letters of each word, put in some numbers or something, shuffle, and after having used it 3 times or so, it's locked in my head (or fingers?). You can always derive the password again from the sentence.

    Like this: My Policy For A Long Time Has Been To Pick Two Words = mpfalthbtptw == pmfal4thbtp41tw

    Strong enough for my uses.
