... share my concerns about anyone named Homer being involved in the space program?
In all seriousness, I'm sure he'll end up with a good job out of this, which should be worth more to him and his family in the long run then the $200k prize.
Not nVidia. AMD owns ATI. D'oh! My apologies. Had I remembered which one they purchased I certainly would have made a joke involving rearranging the letters to spell 'DAAMIT'.
I don't get why people keep saying this. How is an AMD chip any more proprietary than an Intel chip? Proprietary was probably a poor choice of words, though I highly doubt AppleMD would maintain full x86 compatibility/integrity if it was responsible for creating the next generation of AMD chips. I am a long time Mac owner but I have little faith that their computing platform will ever follow a straight line - sometimes it wanders like that kid in 'Family Circus'.
Apple moving to a proprietary chip? Doesn't that sound painfully familiar?
They'd find a way to lose what little penetration AMD has into the PC market and nVidia would become known as the Apple graphics chip. Why not just let them acquire Transmeta licensing and they can start from scratch?
A better idea would be to try to harness the anger and frustration of those of us who drive the NJ Turnpike. You could really support the power grid with all that wasted energy.
0. You just DO WHAT THE FUCK YOU WANT TO. I want to delete your asshatian post, but since your charming recommendation only covers copying, modifying and redistribution I'll just have to use Nature's delete button... alcohol.
What do you think will happen when all of these rural Indians come across pictures a tad more extreme than kissing on the interweb?! What is "their OLPC will hit puberty right before their eyes"?
...but shouldn't they worry about educating people on how to use the broadband? Please choose one of the following responses:
a) Just plug a Windows computer into a broadband connection and the malware will take care of the rest.
b) If they need help I'm sure there's a local call center around.
c) They can look it up on the internet because Wikipedia & HowStuffWorks can answer any question posed by man, can't they?

D'oh! My spell check didn't catch it so it's obviously my computer's fault. Stupid computer.

That's the first Apple related story I've read in ages that didn't mention the iPhone. Is Steve feeling OK?
I would certainly hope the Obama camp understands that anything affecting anyone's main presence on the internet will end up all over the internet.

I suppose that's up to the 'Final Authority' on the matter ... the RIAA. Let's ask them, shall we? Gentlemen, care to chime in?
They should concentrate on better design, coding and testing methods rather than blaming the compilers.
