>Star Trek was over with First Contact. That was the end.
Actually, it was mostly over in first 5 minutes of ST 7, which was great until and including the moment Kirk died saving the ship. If the movie ended immediately after that it would be one of the great ST movies.
>problem that is expected to become a reality within the next 15 years as future chips are expected to produce around 10 times as much heat as today's chips.
This is bullshit. I am never even considering buying a >>100W CPU for my desktop, certainly not 1000W.
I'd rather see a less fans in my machine, not more.
Looking into heat/area is more reasonable as area will decrease for a while still.
I liked the way Wing Commander used the mouse and there is nothing better. (Freelancer while nothing special and too arcadish at least did this well).
It's the like playing a FPS with the game console controller instead of the keyboard and mouse.
The way some games -- like freespace use the mouse to simulate the joystick is tolerable but inferior. It works for slow action, but in a real dogfight you end up repositioning the mouse too much.

Windows has encryption built in too.
Timing relies on CPU cycle counter which is quite accurate in most cases.
Probably because Intel is implementing AMD64 now (they call it EM64T or something like that)
I agree. Instals**t is a big problem.
At least the flashlight they provide doesn't run out of juice every 30 seconds.
One problem (in MS world, not oss), is the availability of source code.
If you can do code coverage you can make much better tests.

I really don't see the point in this.
PDFs always sucked for non-printing uses. With this they will just suck more.
However, since each CPU has it's own RAM he will need 4 CPUs to max out the board.

word.
Please, someone at Mozilla or Google special case this one to go to the google home page :)
Funny, I did once remap the Fire button in quake to the right mouse button because the left one became less than 100% reliable.
No, I'm sure they can explain this via another Enterprise time travel plot.
They should get someone to install it for them, lik e they do on Windows.
For me, games that require a joystick suck.

yuck
Same here. Unless I can plug the mouse and keyboard into a console and play Q3A I'm not going to consider them seriously.
There's at least 1 bug, 1 possible issue and 2 coding style issues there.
Too bad the review says it sucks compared to a PC.
I was actualy considering buying a console until I found out that games don't support plugging the mouse and keyboard.
Considering that, it's useless for real FPSs
Seriously....
Windows Exploer turned to shit ever since they integrated IE into it (since active desktop).
The same goes for taskbar which now locks up often for no good reason (I have 1G ram, no swap).
And VSS is Roman for USS :)
This shows exactly why ActiveX is broken.
People will say Yes and after that there is no protection.
>Gotta say, imho, Enterprise isn't as good as TNG, but it's on par with DS9, and way better than Voyager.
The current season's OK (DS9 was better, especially around the middle), but the first to third were crap (like Voyager)
The problem is in Unicode.
The IDN just extends it into domain names.
We should go back to ASCII.
(not 100% joking)
