Before you drop serious dough on a 10G switch...consider whether you'll be able to actually use the speed. That's roughly a gigabyte per second. You'd need a reasonably serious RAID to get anywhere close to that unless your data is all in RAM. You'd also need a fairly beefy PCI subsystem and likely 8+ CPU cores just to keep up with the I/O.
For backplane routing it makes sense because it's just forwarding lots of I/O aggregated from lots of other places. For most servers it's overkill.
It's pretty easy to max out a 100Mbit ethernet link. Gigabit is also doable with a bit of work. It's a bit harder to max out a 10G port but it can be done with multiple queues and large packets. Once you hit 10G you really need to be using multiple queues spread across multiple CPUs and offloading as much as possible to hardware.
Tablets and phones don't work well for data entry, or for typing up long documents, or for doing complex spreadsheets with lots of math and data entry.
Are you kidding? That stuff all has relatively low CPU requirements. Add an external keyboard/mouse and external monitor and many smartphones/tablets would be capable of handling them just fine.
I've got Win7 on a laptop. If it dies I might get Win8 on the replacement but if my tablet dies there's no way I'm buying a locked-down WinRT replacement.
but snopes.com says that five years before New Coke they were already allowed to replace half the sugar with HFCS, and six months prior to New Coke they could use 100% HFCS instead of sugar.
I don't know how the contract law works in the USA, but I would expect that when one company buys another company any pre-existing contract agreements would still need to be upheld.
15 million lines of code. Call it 100 lines per page to ensure OCR can read it after. Let's be generous and go double-sided. That's 75K pages of printout. At 0.003" per page, that's a stack of paper roughly 6 feet tall.
I lived in a place in Congo where for most of the year water was carried (by human power) several hundred vertical feet up from the river. People did not have enough money for masonry on their houses, much less for underground septic tanks, and there is nobody around to pump out solids later.
Incidentally, the electricity would likely be for an electric incinerating toilet--a reasonable option if you have no running water but do have power.
Most of the pre-low-flow toilets just waste all the water rather than putting it to good use actually flushing stuff. I have a 4.8 liter (1.26 gallon) toilet that is designed well and it does a great job--big tank for water pressure, big valve between tank and bowl, it just doesn't drain the whole tank on every flush.
It's got digital temp settings for fridge/freezer compartments, an optional "super-cool" for fast-freezing the freezer section after putting a load of groceries into it.
Once of the coolest fridges I've seen (don't own it, too expensive) actually learned your habits--if you always have breakfast at time X and it generally results in the temperature in the fridge warming by a degree, it will pre-cool by an extra degree at time X-1 so that when you open it for breakfast it will warm up to the desired temperature. That fridge also had three separate compressors, one for each side of the fridge and one for the freezer. They were all variable speed, ran just fast enough to keep the desired temperature rather than cycling on/off.

I think the Samsung series 9 does the same...or maybe it was a Sony

Looks like the x86 iso on VMWare Workstation 8 is the suggested configuration.

Are we NOT to conclude that we should shut down wasteful programs, that we should just carry on?
The answer to waste in a program isn't always to shut down the program. Sometimes you should get rid of the waste within the program.

Why do you need a binary interface rather than a programming interface?
Depending on how big foo() is, simply indicating where the vulnerability is may be enough to allow black hats to find it.

Ask for the original amount paid, plus money for your time and hassle setting up a new account and moving everything over to it.
Okay, it's 5.3" instead of 7", but other than that it seems to be what you're looking for.
The induced electric currents burn up the reflective layer.
That said, any solar flare strong enough to zap CDs is likely going to cause major issues for people as well.

This was my first thought as well..."someone just read REAMDE". :)
but how they obtain it in the first place

What are you doing to yours? I replace some 30-year-old toilets because they used far too much water, not because they stopped working.
The typical behaviour where I lived was to use your left hand for wiping, your right hand for touching food, shaking hands, etc.

get it right. :)
Why do so many patents fail the test of obviousness to people knowledgeable in the relevant field?
