Actually, Intel is putting its GMA into the CPU, not Larrabee. In no way will Intel GMA spell the end for discrete graphics cards, a category which includes Larrabee.
Considering this problem is primarily hard disk-based until everything's loaded into cache, an SSD-based netbook isn't exactly a good comparison. Also, if one rarely clears out one's history, then the problem is exacerbated.
It can take up to ten seconds for the awesomebar to stop locking Firefox up on my machine , until a certain point where enough is in the cache to bypass much of the hard disk activity.
For a while, I just copied all of my 500 MB of Firefox profile into tmpfs on startup, and it was so much faster.
Their site seems to be a bit broken. Every time I try to register, it says: "The email address '$USERNAME' is already being used with one of the existing accounts. Please correct your input and try again." $USERNAME is not the same thing as the e-mail address I entered, either.
I don't know; for many purposes ImageMagick is perfect for my needs. Unlike the GIMP (as of 2.6.7), it supports 16-bit channels in images, which are useful for grayscale work on my side (256 grays is too limiting). It's also a lot faster for doing work over a lot of images in sequence.
"Regular" users will never be able to preform complex tasks such as installing two operating systems instead of one, or not using their operating system so that it doesn't break...
oh wait, something's wrong here...;)
It's not a question of whether or not they lack the ability; it's a question of how much they care to invest time in doing such a thing. If they see an immediate benefit that interests them, they'll definitely be able to learn how to do it.

Actually, Wine is more of an abstraction than an emulator.
In any case, it could be possible to intercept DirectX calls and change the behavior they cause, but it'd be considerably slower.

I'd prefer this Z4 over the car.
Wikipedia has an article pertaining to this.

GP is confused due to this sort of news. Parent is correct in that there will be no such interface.
Sounds like you'd enjoy Google Trends.
Web standards are there for a reason.
Driver support, however, is more of a hobble than support in the hardware here.
I'd recommend against svgalib. Their site is down, and there hasn't been a release in ages.
It's called CSS. You might want to learn it sometime.

Try NFS or CIFS, or even SFTP. KIO supports FISH, too.
And I bet 10.6 works quite well on there, too.</sarcasm>
Are you referring to Theora, Speex, or Vorbis, all of which can be contained in and are often associated with the Ogg container format?
Don't you mean "I wrong code" in this context?

Pretty much the same features that Windows 7 has over Vista.
I'm sure that with enough work, Linux could be done on the PS3 Slim, though.
If it's in a web browser, there's no way it'll be real-time. Sure, it'll appear that way, but wait until network latency goes up.
Well, without JavaScript we could use full-page Java applets to do things Whether or not that's any good remains to be seen.
A better idea would be to replace JavaScript with a virtual machine that plays nice with HTML and can allow a compiler to target it without much work.

This seems outdated: map is a method as of 2.6, and you wouldn't use map anyway since comprehensions are preferred.
The last complaint could be mitigated by writing a regular function, too.

Troll or not, Windows 2000 is not much more obsolete than Windows XP in my opinion.
Sounds like you haven't read this essay yet.
