  1. HEAT on 1100 MHz 'Athlon Killer' Due From Intel in December · · Score: 1

    Wonder how much heat it will generate since PIII are hot enough to heat up a flat at the moment what is that thing going to take to keep cool ? It's own freeezer ?

    Nah I'll wait for a 500 MHz G4 instead ...

  2. Re:...hey, this looks like UNIX! on On Hollywood and the Portrayal of Computers · · Score: 1

    Jurrassic Pork 2 ... Hey this is Unix .. I know this ... or what was it the little girl said ?

    anyway ... it should have been followed by a big old YEAH RIGHT!

  3. Re:Solution: Shadowrun: The Movie on On Hollywood and the Portrayal of Computers · · Score: 1

    ok shadowrun != neuromancer ... ok they borrowed some from Neuromancer but it is not the same.

    for a somewhat great shadowrunny feel there is always Matrix.

  4. wargames on On Hollywood and the Portrayal of Computers · · Score: 1

    ahh fond memories ... that is really the only movie that shows "hacking" in all its glory
    without them super intuitive guis and fonts the size of moutains .. and it doesn't use all them
    all to lovely "override" and "access secret files" lines ...

    bah no watching this kinda activites in the movies
    truely suck ... perhaps it just ain't really very
    intresting to people that arn't into it.

    Sneakers was quite good to when I think about it.

  5. would it really make a difference ? on Would Linux Survive if Solaris Was Free? · · Score: 1

    imho Solaris is better than Linux, please don't hate me :)

    Would Solaris knock out Linux if it went free? I seriously doubt that. People really don't use Linux cause it is free do they ? They use it cause it appeals to them and they like it.

    Would Solaris gain a larger user base if is was free ? Sure I think it would gain some users but
    not to the quantity that it would blow Linux or any other unix version for that matter away.

    Isn't Solaris really a sub product at Sun, I can't imagine they really making any money on Solaris in itself compared to the development costs. What they make money on is selling hardware.

    About Slowaris as some people refer to it as. Sure I can agree on that the Intel version of Solaris ain't a very speedy os but that is in my opinion not the "REAL" Solaris.

    So Solaris ain't open source and it is owned by Sun. Linux may be open in all it's glory but big decission are still made by Mr.Torvalds in a more non-democratic fashion. Nothing wrong with that thou.

    I wouldn't mind Solaris being free thou even if it is currently so for Students (ok not really free there is a shipping and handling cost) but you get that if you order Linux to and don't download it from the net.

  6. Isn't this what they call irony ? on Patrick Naughton Arrested · · Score: 1

    He spends his time at work trying to protect kids and family from the smut of the net and gets nailed for this. Bhahah! Mayby it was research.

  7. Re:Watch out scour on Teen Freed for Linking to MP3s · · Score: 1
