  1. Re:Hmm ... on Transmeta Awarded Another Patent · · Score: 3

    looks like a cpu which read foreign instruction sets and then translates them into its own set and execs them in a highly parallel manner to produces a faster execution than the original processor. THe trick here looks to be finding out which things can be done parallel without causing an exception. end result is a transmeta chip that runs the instructions of other chips faster.

  2. quick get the bandwagon on "LinuxOne" files for an IPO · · Score: 4

    linux one's website looks like a my first html experiment. i wouldn't even bbuy a distro from the these jokers let alone invest in their 'failure waiting to happen' future. I wonder if their mother's know they are having an IPO. dont you need to be like 17 or something.

  3. BBC programmes in the US on BBC Documentary About Slashdot · · Score: 1

    Being an ex-pat working in the valley, I like the respite of familiar programming. The BBC's programmes are all over Cable. most PBS stuff has a high amount of BBC or joint production. (NOVA is basically Horizon, a BBC joint production. ) ON the discovery channel I guess about 50-60% is UK product re-voiced with an american narration. Also with digital cable we get BBC America which may carry the /. thang. The main thing to realise is that the BBC will sell the rights to this to an AMerican broadcaster usually PBS but not exclusively. I think there is a good chance to see this where I am (Silicon Valley) as there is an big audience for any tech stuff, other parts of the states may not get a broadcast.
