Engineering seems to me to be threat simulation too - you think of everything that could go wrong, work round it and then whatever you are building ends up working.
Switching to digital TV frees up spectrum, which the government can then sell - they should still make a profit even after subsidising the converters. If you look at it that way this is not a subsidy, it is compensation for them taking away the analog spectrum so they can sell it.
I use XP for music stuff (linux for everything else)... I'll probably get an Intel DP35DP motherboard (pretty popular with DAW builders) and Core 2 quad Q6600 (best bang for buck). There's good advice to be had over at the SoundonSound forums (the PC Music board) and there's even a Linux section: http://www.soundonsound.com/forum/postlist.php?Board=LinMus . The other way to go is to look at what the pro DAW builders are using - www.adkproaudio.com are pretty well respected and seem to be on top of the issues.
The linked patent may have Jepsen listed as an inventor, but it is assigned to "ONE LAPTOP PER CHILD ASSOCIATION, INC.", so I'm not sure why it's mentioned in the summary. She's can't use that without OLPC's permission.
AMD don't have the performance right now for music stuff
What I meant to say there was Intel is ahead for music stuff right now. Last time I went with AMD (X2 4400+), but this time it looks like it will be an Intel (Q6600 probably).
To narrow things down a bit, it's not about Motherboards - it's about chipsets. I've only been looking at Intel (AMD don't have the performance right now for music stuff) - Intel's current P35 and X38 chipsets both support 8GB memory max. If you need more then you have to look at one of the Xeon chipsets: the 5000X workstation chipset is the one to look at if you want to be able to run 2 processors (not sure what the equivalent one is for a single processor) - it supports up to 32GB of memory.
Of course a flaming fox is going to be stronger than a view. MS should have thought up a better name than Vista. Something that could beat foxes and fire - how about: Ice weasel?
No, his DVD remote has 52 buttons on it because people will really sit
down and learn all of those ff/rew/2x/4x/slo-mo/repeat/A-B/loop functions in
order to more efficiently find and view the naughty bits of movies.
10ns access times and 0.7Hz refresh rates. Their calculations predict that the access time could be maintained for up to a million years.
What TFA says is that at the moment the memory needs refreshing at 0.7Hz, but they calculate that eventually they'll be able to make one that only needs refreshing once every million years.
I think if I was doing this, I would have started with rockbox - it already has all the audio playback and recording, runs on cheap, easily portable hardware (MP3 players). I'm assuming you only need 2 channels of audio input - otherwise you might have some extra hardware hacking to do. The only tricky bit would be the noise cancelling I don't know how much processing that takes.
I find their use of the word 'eliminated' a bit overly dramatic. Dissolved maybe, but eliminated? It's not like they've all been taken to the alley behind the studio, shot in the head and then dumped in the river.
No, but that is what HBO did to the Sopranos team.

Hmm, yeah, hasn't worked for me..... yet :)
Obviously, her looks are completely unimportant.
Yeah, it's character based.
How much more is the the Macbook that is this colour going to cost???
Tux needs his wings to swim after fish and avoid starving to death. Maybe Linus hasn't thought of this? Should someone tell him?
Yeah, it's like being inside a CRT - but without the electron gun burning a hole in the back of your head!
Is there a typo in the summary? I thought the joke was: How do you get to Carnegie Hall? Practice.

If you haven't got anything good to say, aggregate someone else's content.

Good luck!

Just because it's New Years eve, we can put any top 10 list from the year on?
Not any top 10 list - just the top 10 top 10 lists.

Plus a big snake stuck in your heart doesn't sound too safe either.
No, you're thinking of a stake.

Lock up the dremel before you go to sleep tonight.
Maybe it's the "Sorry, comments have been disabled for this story" at the end of TFA?
... of a white Christmas?
Microsoft release the CC#.NET license which makes it impossible for people to release under the CC-No-Commercial license.
