You'd be amazed how many windows machines one person can administer if every time a machine went down for a hardware or software fault you didn't even bother to take it down from the rack- just removed it from the list of good machines. For google it just doesn't matter how easy/hard it is to administer the machine. They image it once, and never touch it again.
try putting a paper clip or a twist tie (the kind with the metal core) on high for a minute. After the fire department leaves I think you'll have a much better understanding of what a microwave is capable of;)
You can't access an xp machine from the network using an account with a blank password.

A programming god like Linus probably wouldn't have a problem with comprehension even if you removed all of the whitespace from a C program, so I'm really not sure we should be using his preferences as a yardstick.
Science never deals in absolutes anyway- the study found that for most people 2-4 spaces was optimum, no indents were the worst, follower by 6 or more spaces. Clearly a minority of people are going to be happier with more indentation (there's probably even a couple people out there who are happiest with none)...

Nope. Adobe released Photoshop 1.0 in February 1990. It's been there ever since- it was shipped with a scanner from BarneyScan in 1989 (but only about 200 copies) A windows version was not even shipped until April of 1993.
If something hoses your system, go to Start menu, help, and select system restore wizard or some such. XP can roll your system back to pretty much any configuration you want.
You didn't carry your units through. If you multiply out your numbers you end up with 331 mbits/s, which is ~40 mbytes/sec. You also don't really lose anything by recording 480x480 given the crappy quality of most broadcast signals, which would move things down to ~26mbytes/s. (Also if you think my $30 ati tv wonder ve is doing compression I have a bridge for sale...)
you do realize that google has literally hundreds, if not thousands of machines serving web pages, right?

They're somewhere between the two. In the book there's no need to project your will onto the ditto's because they are you- including all of your memories. They also have a very limited life span (a couple weeks at the most), and their only shot at living (even just in memory) is to get back home and upload their memories to their creator.
The web site works fine (and is supported for windows) in netscape/mozilla. The web site operators just decided that netscape/mozilla on other platforms is sufficiently different that they're not going to support it.
The main difference is that Administrator usually can't run as service while LocalSystem can--needed for trojans to do anything really useful
Once you have administrator priveldges on a windows box you are god. You can grant yourself any additional priveleges you need (including the run as service right). Some domain policy settings can override some of this when running in an active directory forest, but I can`t think of anything that I couldn't do as a member of the administrators group in any of the nt based windows derivatives.
I don't know what the world would be like without evil, but I sure as hell would be willing to give it a shot before tossing the idea out the window. I find that most people who say that good doesn't exist without evil really mean, "I only appreciate my good fortune in contrast to the misery of others."

You should be able to get a much denser rack without having to worry about proper air flow.

SMP requires shared memory so this box doesn't fit the bill.

That would make it sort of difficult to record two different shows at once, wouldn't it?
The series was called Dragonrealm, and really was quite interesting.

It would be neat?
Over the distance that it applies, the strong nuclear force is much stronger than any of the other forces.

You're thinking of precision.
