Unlikely - the XBox 360 CPUs are still quite different in design from the G5 - both are PPCs, but they differ in many ways internaly - and one of those is onboard cache.
These things will be realy good for gaming, but I wouldn't want to try and run a full OS and applications on them - I certainly wouldn't want to try and run multiple programmes at once on them.
Lewis definately intended to write a Christian Allegory (he saud as much many times) but ended up writing something much more in tune with Mithraism than Christianity.
God is neither a Republican nor a Democrat. He's a monarch.
Not even that Polybius defined a monarch as a single ruler acting within the constraints of what tradition and his subjects will allow. By his definition God is a Tyrant.
Unfortunately, the science of Operating Systems has mainly stagnated since the 1960s and building computer systems for the networked world needs a radically different approach.
Actualy the science of the OS has come a long way since the 1960s - by the 1980s all of these problems had been solved and every serious operating system had as much protection as it needed built-in.
Most of the world?
Not realy. Religious fundementalists have alot of Power in the US and the middle-east, but in Africa, Europe, and most of Asia they are a minority voice with little power.
(Which isn't to say that religious groups don't have power, but they're very rarely "fundementalists")
In all instances of a home desktop, XP wins.
Rubbish.
Many members of my family prefer Linux to Windows XP - to say that Windows is better on every home desktop is just... wrong.
... that the EU is helping to fund this as a way of getting the bugs out of the technology on a small scale before trying to deploy full-scale orbital mirrors (which have a lot of uses other than lighting up dark towns).
McDonalds food also causes obesity when used for its intended purpose - but only if overused - which McDonalds do not specificly encourage. The Tobacco industry intentionaly encourages regular use of tobacco and attempts to supress and throw doubt over its effects.
They do have puny tails, but Hippos are tubs of muscle, not fat.
A Hippo can kill a man quite easily (and it's not that uncommon).
To be honest the descriptiopn of Behemoth could just as easily be talking about a Red Kangaroo, a Giant Ground Sloth, a Mammoth, or any one of hundreds of other large and powerful extinct (or indeed still extant) mamalian creatures known to have coexisted with early man.
Or it could have been a myth, a metaphore, a mistranslation, an urban-legend, or somebodies drug-induced hallucination after eating too much ergotic rye.
It's also possible that grass at that time was only common in a very limmited area and didn't spread accross the globe until later.
Also bear this in mind - the fossil record is so incomplete that we have gaps in it millions of years in length during which we've found no fossils. In fact if we were all to die out tomorrow it's quite unlikely that any human fossils would survive in 65 million years time - that's how small an amount of time we've existed for on a geological scale.
Grass is a particular type of plant, specificly a particular type of flowering plant - flowering plants first appeared on earth about three quarters of the way through the time when dinosaurs existed (pre-flowering planst including large ferns which reproduce using windblown polen) - until now it was believed that grass didn't evolve until much much later.
There were trees for a very long time before there was grass.

Even then I wouldn't expect it.
In this case (electrical) potential energy also gets transformed into kinetic energy - so it's pretty analogous.

Because someone has to say it!

extant, surely?

Although it's rarer one can also effect a retreat (for example), or sport an affect as part of one's mannerisms.
Isn't English wonderful?
Pretty sure it isn't stuff that matters either.
The geographic north pole is north by definition, the magnetic north pole is not - so it can head south.
Actualy the science of the OS has come a long way since the 1960s - by the 1980s all of these problems had been solved and every serious operating system had as much protection as it needed built-in.
Then MS-DOS came along, and its decendents.
Except in places with a national health service of course ...

(Yes I am a pale vegetarian - no the two are not related)
Realy? look like ELF binaries to me.

Ever accepted an EULA?
Halo doesn't resemble ringworld much at all - it's got a lot more in common with the Orbitals of Iain M. Banks' Culture novels.

The article is misleading - it's realy talking about the final switch-off of the analog signal, not the first introduction of digital.
