Indeed, or MonkeyAudio (I use FLAC myself, but oh well the more alternatives the better).
And you can push it to your device as OGG or AAC file if it handles these formats, since you get equivalent size for better quality (and nicer losses too).
Some cancers are actually extremely fast killers. Down to 1 or 2 months (with extreme pains requiring more or less permanent morphine injections for 75% of that time) between the first symptoms and death. Pancreas cancers (even though they're not caused by these decafeinating agents), for example, are in that range.
Presumably if MS can get custom PPC chips, Apple will be getting the hottest and latest Intel chips--maybe even custom.
The MS guys have been working with IBM engineers for 2 years to build the XBOX360 chip (based on the IBM PPE design, which is also PS3's Cell root and more than likely the base of Revolution's CPU as well. A completely different beast than the Power4 which was the base for Apple's Power970 chips)
Windows is the 64-bit frontend of a 32-bit shell for a 16-bit extension to an 8-bit operating system designed for a 4-bit microprocessor by a 2-bit company that can't stand one bit of competition.
3) pick an indentation style. it really doesn't matter which since tools like indent can convert between them almost painlessly. all code that goes into the repository is run through indent to put it into a standard format
4) require that code compile cleanly with no warnings at the most anal retentive compiler settings before it can be checked in unless there are good reasons to ignore the compiler warnings
5) average devs are only able to commit to the "head" fork (or equivalent in your sccs). the code is not committed to the "real" fork until it passes whatever tests you have
5 is not that required since most modern version control tools are able to run scripts on your data before/after the commits.
In that case, the indentation cleaning, compile test and full unit-testing of the modified application could be done automagically at commit, with commit refused if code doesn't seamlessly compile or if any unit test fails (any code change would also, naturally, require the concurrent commit of the modified unit tests for the code).
Duh, idle Pentium-M feature a 27W TDP while A64 are all well above 60W TDP...
On the other hand, low-power Opterons and Turion64 (AMD's mobile A64s) get as low as 25W TDP.
Oh, and BTW some A64/socket939 chipsets get hot as fucks, check the running temperature of a nForce4 chip, mine currently checks 47C while my A64 3000+ runs a cool 35C (and I'm not using SLI, which makes the nF4 get even hotter)...
Apple as far as I can see has a bit of a disconnect with "reality". They're not customer-oriented [e.g. shitty dead pixel policies, really costly vendor-locked in gear, etc]. It was always "oh that's apple gear only because the quality is higher" yet all the folk I talk to say "just get a wintel laptop and be done with". And it isn't like the PPC isn't a nice processor [the G4 actually looks fairly sweet]. It's just they're a bunch of pricks.
Maybe Apple's computer "just work" and look cool to boot (and not the "hey let's put some more shinies, neons and LEDs in this I'm not sure 3.5MW worth of them is enough" cool) ?
They are pricks indeed, and suckers, but they computers work and OSX is a quite good piece of software.
In fact, quite a few people are currently shifting from Wintel to Apple 'puters...
Apple went with Intel for appearance sake only. A Turion-based laptop would have done them just fine [or hell just invest and extend the PPC line]. I mean the G5 was a bit extreme, no need for that in a laptop [though it is cool]. A 32-bit laptop is mighty fine given that you don't normally run multi-GB database engines or whatever on it.
Flash news: Current AMD Turions are, in fact, 64 bits (which *may* be why their name really is AMD Turion(TM) 64)
Say, does on often open new factories when one's production is above one's sales?
The very fact that they need to open new factories and strike deels with other manufacturers to help them if they can't manage enough production DOES mean that their fabs are cramped and working full steam.
If you are using a Beta version (and not a Release Candidate), then it checks on the Beta/Dev branches, which means that it has a news version (new build) pretty much every day.
Try doing this: go to the config page (type about:config in the address bar), then search for "app.update" and set the values:
app.update.channel to
release
app.update.url to
https://aus2.mozilla.org/update/1/%PRODUCT%/%VER SION%/%BUILD_ID%/%BUILD_TARGET%/%LOCALE%/%CHANNEL% /update.xml
app.update.details to
http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/releases /
That should do the trick and grab the updates from the Release files (aka stable branch) instead of the beta/dev files
Driver certification means just that Microsoft received the driver, and agreed to confirm that the driver comes from one of its business partners, and not from a suspicious open-source hacker. You don't even have a guarantee that the driver is free from rootkits.
Certification doesn't mean shit but the fact that the vendor had the bucks to pay MS.
The ship was 110 miles from the coast of somalia when they were attacked, there is no information on the distance between them and the pirates, but when pirates try to board your ship they're usually quite close...
Not to mention that I've yet to see machine guns and hand rockets (rocket-propelled grenades isn't a synonym for Scud you know) with a 110 miles (180km) operational range.
Even less so with any kind of accuracy.
In fact, most specific surface to ships missiles don't even reach that kind of ranges. US Harpoon has a 110km range (68 miles), french Exocet barely reaches 70km (43 miles) and UK's Sea Eagle has Harpoon's 110km range.

Uh, none of the "things" you listed come even close to a realy German beer (or belgian, belgian beers are also really good).
Gosh, even implying than Budweiser is not crap...

God, that thing's ugly as a sin.
Uh ya, right, GPU is an ATI design and CPU is a 3-core PowerPC by IBM.
Both were created in cooperation with Microsoft and are fully custom made (the Xenon CPU took 2 years), but they're still not "MS processors".
Duh, you're not supposed to rebuild the whole project every time

That may be what they're *supposed* to represent, but that sure ain't what they *do* represent.

Since when does stock value reflect a company's technical prowess of potential?
Yep, as well as the price on Mud computers.

It's actually the disappearance of pirates that cause global warming, as proven by this explicit graph[/url]
