CDs have 44100 32-bit samples per second (16 bits per channel). What you describe would only be able to reproduce frequencies up to 11kHz, and that just plain sucks.
Microsoft invested $150 million in Apple in 1997. It was definitely not 25% of Apple shares and I don't think they even had enough to vote on anything.
You can make disk writes almost as fast as RAM by using a Disk-Caching-Disk setup (RAM buffer + 2 hard drives)
Writes go to the RAM buffer which flushes immediately to a cache disk, which never bothers seeking to a new track. During idle time this stuff is written back to the actual data disk.
I remember the days when RealAudio charges a few hundred or thousand to beta test RealProducer/RealEncoder products. It was around that time that we stopped doing business with them.
"Slaughter of innocents" probably referred to the ten-year siege and sanctions Iraq has been under since Gulf War I. The constant sanctions and air strikes make it sound more like the US has been at war with Iraq constantly since 1991.
Oh, I never doubted that it was happening. I just think it's a funny name for a board from Nintendo, however appropriate it may be for the product. (you HAVE played the legend of zelda, right?)
Next thing you know, people in GANNON costumes will break into arcades across the country to steal arcade boards and sell them on the black market for mad RUPIES.
Arcade owners will break their boards into 8 pieces and hide them underground.
Seriously now, these exclusive arcade ports were supposed to happen for the N64. Killer Instinct and Cruis'n USA were supposed to be followed by a host of Midway games running on Ultra 64 hardware in the arcade which could be ported quickly to the home console.
That is what he is describing. The PlayChoice 10 worked by putting a quarter in to buy time to play NES games, basically. There was a similar setup for the SNES. Neo Geo arcade machines often had two or four games built in (Samurai Shodown, Fatal Fury, King of Fighters, and Double Dragon, or some similar arrangement)
It's not necessarily a more efficient use of floorspace because you can't have people playing each of the ten games at the same time. For a very popular arcade, this would be silly.

Long before this was the NuTek Duet, which attempted to run Mac software and hardware on some weird reverse-engineered Motif-based system. It had a 486/66 in the same case and you could change between the two with a large front panel switch.

Chill out man, I'm just trying to make some karma same as everybody else.
A sling shot is not the same as a sling.
A sling shot uses a rubber band to propel its payload.
A sling uses the sudden stop of centripedal force.
Sling shot = Dennis the Menace.
Sling = David killing Goliath
Slings are good for hunting small animals, apparently.

Some really old Mac 'clones' just jacked the ROM chips from discarded Mac Pluses and slapped them in a laptop. This was before the Powerbook, IIRC.
Plenty of those guys have two or three monitors hooked up to a machine anyway.
The MCF5307 processor from Motorola has something similar. There are two pipelines (one 4-stage and one 2-stage) separated by an 8-stage FIFO.
Hint: when shopping for Macintosh software, do not shop in the Windows section of the store.
Here's the paper so you can read all about it yourself.

Don't say "France" and "the French."
Say "Chirac" and "the French government."
The French military was all for helping out, except for the president getting in the way.
Yes, that's why the DCD writes to RAM first.

The center of the vintage arcade scene is no doubt the New Jersey coast.
Q*Bert, Spy Hunter, HERCULES (the biggest pinball game in the world which used a cue ball insta\ead of a pinball!)
This is why the FSF wants to be the copyright holder on GPLed software.

DID YOU NOT READ THAT POST AT ALL?

Many CPUs nowadays have a unified cache, such as the Power PCs (I think) and the Motorola ColdFire chips (or at least the 5307)
No. Mac OS X Server runs on Macs as well. There are builds of Darwin that run on x86 but hardware support is more than a little lacking.

A TRIFORCE arcade board?
