I *love* reading manga on my Kindle (3). Though I have to admit i only use it for black and white mangas of an orignal format aproaching that of the screen (read the entire Full Metal Alchemist on it).
I understand that... *now*...but back then in the drunk haze that college was, colder == faster, which was silly I know. Besides we used the mineral oil to cool beer too (worked like a charm)
Our oil was much colder: we were using the cooling element from an old refrigerator (we planned on overclocking that old 386:-)) and managed to get it down to a couple of degrees celsius:-)
When I experimented with mineral oil based cooling, the main issue I had were water droplets condensing on the surface of the cold mineral oil and then promptly sinking... towards the motherboard sitting in the bottom of the old aquarium I was using as a case. Of course there were solutions to this problem but it was a quick and dirty (you can take that dirty word quite literally) test back when I was a student, so we gave up on the idea pretty quickly.
I wonder how they have managed to solved the condensation problem.
It's nice that you can make money working on open source software, it's even nicer that I can make money working on it, but in truth it is not a universally successful business model.
Neither is writing closed source software. I know you touch on this issue in your explanation (and I agree with you to quite a large extent) , however this statement you make at the beginning of your post makes whole argument feel wrong somehow.

I'm stealing your analogy, good sir :)
First thing that crossed my mind. Got I loved that series.
Their "Newton 2" seems to be doing pretty well...

I wish I had modpoints for you, good sir.
or lawyers...
thank you!
where did you read this?
Thx
Is the correct answer to this yes/no question "no"? :)
Thank you good sir, for formulating what I was thinking!
Hey quit it!
sincerely,

it's when reading post like the above one that I wish I had modpoints! Well written good sir, I salute you.

Are you sure about the density? According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineral_oil the density of mineral oil is 0.8g/cm3 while that of water is 1gg/cm3.

You're a manager aren't you? Hell, the way you sound, you could be my boss... ;-)
makes sense to me. Those suckers have been blown of their seats since TOS. ;-)
Bullshit, GSM work just fine over 3G networks (which are the 3rd generation GSM btw)

Try running VISTA on a G3, G4 or G5. See who'll be the laughing stock then.

per hour. That's how much google pays itself for the topspot.
... (wait for it) ...
Who the hell should they be giving the money they pay too? The author of the [sarcasm] intellectual masterpiece [\sarcasm] linked to?
No of course not, for advertising on google you should pay to
that's right, google
So let us see how this works out
Googles money = Googles money - [advertising cost] + [advertising revenue]
in case they are paying themselves, these two numbers are of course equal,
thus after minimal simplification we get
Googles money = Googles money
or
1
In other terms
the question "how much does x pay itself" is NOT EVEN WRONG.
*sigh*
this has to be one of the most fucked up, sensationalist articles about google on the front page for quite a while.

Sure enough it does not seem to work any more

Strange,
I'm just trying to reply

Actually it can't. The os x partition is invisible to windows.

Sorry to dissapoint.
