  7. Re:Apple & Java don't play nice anymore on An Open-Source Java Port To iPhone? · · Score: 1

    An anonymous reader writes "With the first anniversary of open-source Java coming up November 13, a Sun official believes the project could bear a fruit much sought-after in the Java community: a Java port to the Apple iPhone. Apple has not released a version of Java capable of running on the popular device. But Sun's Terrence Barr, technical evangelist for the Java mobile and embedded community, believes Apple's plans to release an SDK for iPhone in early 2008 may result in the open-source phoneME version of Java ME winding up on iPhone." He sounds like pro-liberal-religious official...

    Apple can't even commit to Java 1.6 for OS X -- I think you're being a wee bit optimistic. And you sound like fundamentalist religious counselor. "stick to java 1.4 because it came with OS X"

The 64-GB SSD is available initially on Dell's XPS M1330 ultraportable notebook Relevant Products/Services, and, later this year, on other models in the XPS line, as well as on Latitude corporate notebooks and Dell mobile workstations. For Alienware, users can choose dual 64-GB SSDs in RAID 1 or RAID 0 configuration, or a 64-GB SSD in combination with a magnetic drive for the Area-51 m9750 high-performance gaming notebook. Prices start over $1,000 for the SSD additions. As far as price is concerned. I would rather get this. http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/21/toshibas-320gb-2-5-inch-hard-drive-a-worlds-best-for-laptops/

    The largest SSD up to date.

    Adtron has just unveiled a 2.5-inch SSD drive, which is claimed to be the world's largest capacity at 160GB. Just one drawback, this drive will cost $80-$115 per GB. For those who haven't already seen, check out a SSD vs. HDD demonstration after the jump.

    It's Chinese this time and when they say they are gonna do it they will make it before everybody else. I mean it scares me. In a decade, China's economy will be bigger than United States, that is for sure. and they can dedicate little portion of their economy but it will still be billions of dollars that most other first world nations can't afford: because we have other things in priority such as taking care of poverty and improving welfare. Their govnt decide what is priority. not the way that is decided here. As soon as someone discovers great economic benefit from exploiting moon every rats will get on the cheese party. think about the disputes that we are already having. https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/index.html

  19. Fixed that for ya... on Intel in the GHz Game Again - Skulltrail Hits 5 GHz · · Score: 1

    Measuring computer performance in Hz is like buying a car based on red line RPMs. It only tells you one component that is meaningless by itself. Just like a car needs torque to give rpm's context, processors need how many instructions can be completed per cycle to be compared to the frequency. I've lost faith in the MHz race and generally look at benchmarks closest to the intended purpose of the processor.
    Measuring computer performance in Hz is like buying a car with good horsepower to attract woman. while you having succeeded to every woman with wrong Pron-ic vinyls all over your car that yells i am a frickest nerd in town. all i did was to buy a subaru and pu F1 engine that is awkwardly stickin out in your trunk.

    try: 1noon.co.kr
    This is the best and only google like search portal with own search engine i know. this was bought by one of the top5 company Daum. but i do not know it had been implemented into their website. It does not appear that naver provides any better result than google. In fact naver, google, yahoo and all other search webs i have been using seem to return IDENTICAL results from what i look for. so i doubt that any one of these even provide the functions you asked tho. I am of course talking about general broad search of the web. It seems that, for example, naver provide better search result when searched within Naver.com domain than general search of the web.
    The web in Korea is heavily concentrated over few number of domains. People in general use web to search within the portal to look up other blog, wiki or answer like contents, videos and on.
    Take slashdot for example, it's search option is so lame that you are better off using google to search within slashdot. But it is very well organized and usually many information is easily accessible including their ads.
    disclaimer:I am student from Korea who have been studying CS in US, but my info maybe is little old since i haven't went back home for awhile. But this is what i can tell you now, as i have worked as translator for a research firm in Korea. Hope someone who ACTUALLY worked on or at least know well about Korean search engines explain this for us. In depth w/ secrets. :)

  21. The reason why NAVER in Korea tops google on In Some Places, Local Search Beating Google · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I am student from Korea so i know very well about Korean websites. Naver gained popularity by providing human generated search engine and user generated contents such as imitation of yahoo's answer page. But there are no good search engine that supports Korean in the face of this planet. At least european laguages share common alphabet, that is the reason why google holds significant share on europe. But Korean is just different from English. As i search internet in Korean, neither google,naver returns reliable results. There are no search engine that supports basic functions like spell correction neither. (Lets say you type Koreea in google and it will suggest you that if you meant to type Korea) web portals and search engines in Korea are more like very well organized catalog with useful advertisements. There are long way to go in developing web search engine in Korean. In fact there are some progress done. Until the new technology is finally embedded into their websites it is just going to be good yellowbook with lots of ads. Funny thing is that when i use google i do my best to ignore all the ads. But when i use Naver, i only look at their ads. funnier things is tho, most scholars use google in Korea when searching Korean, because it has simpler interface.
