I think the New World could use all of those things too. Instead we have a dictator warlord who attained power via coup. He fights for aresenic in our drinking water. He encourages herding, discourages decent housing, and has gutted public schools.
Any video card on the market is way overkill for anything that's going to be run on a Mac. It's been that way for years. Even in x86 land it's true for the vast majority of users.
Is a tax levi anything like a tax eli or a tax malachi?
Football is *not* education, and the jocks should fully have to pay for it instead of ripping off money from poorly-funded academics.
When I worked for AMD (1993-94), masks were made by DuPont, not in-house. I never fully understood the process, but there was a $100K-per-license application called CATS that did "fracturing" on final chip designs to represent them in a way that the mask-making machines could grok.
Actually, flash-based cards are *bigger*. You can get an 8 gig CF card, albeit at a high price/GB. I paid a bit more for my 4 gig CF card than I would have for a 4 gig microdrive, but I got a super-fast card to last me into the future, and have lower battery burn.
Then they always say, well I guess well have to cut the travel budget for sports, or well have to eliminate all band programs.
You say that like it's a bad thing.
That means that "things just work" - hardware works, and there is enough software, all built for the specific platform, that it all plays together nicely.
Clearly you don't have an HP or any other AIO hooked to an OSX box.
I'm still trying to figure out what dain bramage caused Apple to downgrade the default shell from tcsh to bash.
OSX still has some real flaws compared to an X-based Unix machine. Inability to lower windows, no built-in virtual desktop functionality or even a really good third-party hack, still no real case-sensitivity for filenames, bizarre things like Finder not showing/tmp.
I joined in high school because I thought it'd be something good to put on college applications. I quit when I found how obnoxious all of their communications were. I've not wanted anything to do with them since.
I think the adjective you were after there is "stiff".
Did your laptop come with a cable? My ~1999 Dell came with a crappy 3com pcmcia ethernet card and a very thin & flexible RJ45 cable that folds up into a small bundle. It's probably not "rated" for 100mbit, but works fine with it, and I've not seen any operational difference between it and a Cat[5-6] cable.
I find it hard to believe that a significant fraction of people give a rat's ass whether their CPU is made by Dell, AMD, or Bob's Muffler Hut
The way they fuxored Gallileo by repeatedly trucking it across the country still pisses me off. grrr.
Deciding who can and can't get into educational programs -- now, that's a different story!

You're thinking of Leia. Leah is the chick in that Donnie Iris song.
And long before that such a person was called a shill.
The idea of a "prudent reserve" is entirely reasonable.
This is one reason why we should abandon the idea that coal is derived from swamp plants that died and decayed anerobically.
He will, in time. Whether he says it or not, he will eventually.
First, let's get them to stop uppercasing the word "raw" as if it were an acronym.
Maybe I'm missing it, but why aren't there any photos?
That plastic clamshell?

Does your $20 Netgear do the 108Mbps thing? Does it, unlike my Netgear, actually *work* with WPA?

N+1: Does your CEO print up posters of himself portrayed as Indiana Jones? N+2: Is his trophy wife on them too?
"a Edition", eh?
I don't subscribe to slashdot groupthink. You mean not everyone is obsessed with kids' video games or mistakes Linuxes for real OS's?
