Sounds like you might want one of the boards made by PC Engines. They're almost exactly what you just described, and the kernel supports everything on them as of 2.6.27. (the most important feature works anyway: turning the status LEDs on and off from userspace)
Apple is a hardware company that builds high quality hardware.
Where "high quality" is defined as excessive thermal paste causing overheating, laptop chips that routinely ran at 70C+, castration of standard features in the name of "product differentiation", proprietary video card interfaces masquerading as PCI-E,...
But hey, prove me wrong. I'm sure there's SOME good reason why the Apple 30" LCD is 70% more expensive than the Dell one, despite them being exactly the same hardware?
The only thing "perfect" about a browser that hangs for ten seconds because the web page is trying to concatenate a few strings in js to insert a 20 row table is that it's perfectly brain-dead.
Linux also has a (relatively new) Firewire debug driver. The thing about Firewire is that it uses DMA instead of PIO, which is the reason USB's speed sucks, but the important thing here is it bypasses the CPU and lets you access memory directly - even after the machine crashes.
The first piece of legislation means that you're not allowed to run code, modify data or attempt to access a computer that doesn't belong to you without the owner's permission
That one's easy to ignore - just redefine "owner".
I don't see how this is even possible: you can't assign a unique 32 bit number to each 128 bit number.
Just assign a unique 16 bit number to each 128 bit number. You know, using the same method your IPv4 router's been doing for years to make 32 bit numbers accessible to your (effectively) 8 bit internal IP.
No. Supporting Linux is not hard at all [opera.com]
If both ATi and nVidia can support all of those distros with just one download per CPU type (and that's with their respective GUI control panel apps), why does Opera fail on such a huge scale?
My own numbering system hasn't failed me yet - Major number: Increment to the next largest prime number every time there's a total rewrite. Minor number: The more useless, the better.
As an example, my 1.x started off at 1.04 and ended at 1.23 with separate releases anywhere from 4 days to 8 months apart. 2.x went from.0 up to.13 then jumped to.50 and.60 for no reason. 3.0 never had any other releases because it was the most evil code I'd ever written, and 5.x is every x'th day of the x'th month - meaning I'll have to rewrite everything after December 12th.:D

Yes. Idiots like timothy who "edited" the summary are the reason everyone on Slashdot is banned from linking to bugzilla bugs.
Maybe you should ask yourself why society is so fucked up that we have the hostage situations and bank robberies in the first place.
Why are we still using a base 60 system invented by the Sumerians?
Because replacing ten billion computer clocks is a bit expensive?
The last time I checked, you couldn't stop a suicide bomber by throwing a copy of Fedora 9 at them.
Maybe not, but then neither does throwing half the west's military force at them seem to have any effect.
I'd love to see them try disabling the line-in when it's on a separate computer from the line-out.
The article title is actually a different typo, they're planning to send COBOL programmers to work on Kobol.
Guess I'm wrong then.
I could have sworn I saw something ages ago saying they've given up on rings for the NX-bit stuff.
SVN is better for Windows users.
Git is better for Git users.

It is depressing, but remember you only need to have your camera stolen once to be free.

x86-64 doesn't.
And don't give me that 'ZFS doesn't need a fsck' crap.
Hmm... so that must mean you do give a fsck?
Shill.

...as long as it's Python.
No thanks.
See? They don't care. Nobody cares. Try that with a USB protocol.
USB 3.
Oh look, nobody cares.

99.9% means on average you can get up to 1 hour of downtime a year. You can also drown in a stream with an average depth of 6 inches...
This isn't a tabloid either. The readers are assumed to generally have a clue, and how to use google.

you'll once again hear the trolls saying, "Why are people spending $130 to buy a point release?
Oh the irony. Windows 4.0->4.1->4.90 weren't free upgrades, nor is 5.{0,1,2,3}.
Microsoft do, however allow a free major version upgrade. 6.0 to 5.1.
A passenger would have the time to go into the menu and disable it.
