made in reference to the fact that generally standard sizes used today are becoming able to push the output/input
limits of our senses on the hardware.
where's a carmack or sweeney when you need one.
in terms of audio, sure. in terms of video, a 32bpp color palette only represents a fraction of the precision that the human eye can discern. sizes will still grow, just in different directions.
Not that I'm saying we're quite there yet, but we are getting close enough to begin thinking about this realistically.
we're close, but maybe not that close. don't be too proud of this technological terror you've created.
they have an nyc POP now, which you should specifically request to be on if you use speakeasy and you're on the east coast. but yeah, the routing through seattle thing was a big problem when i first got my service. this is sound advice.
i use speakeasy as well. they are very flexible, add'l ip's are cheap, and they're surprisingly linux/bsd friendly. lately though i've stopped recommending them as i've had a few instances of extended dsl outages (usually on the covad side) which they couldn't get covad to address in an acceptable amount of time (most recently, two weeks down while i waited for a replacement bridge).
i'm not singling speakeasy out as a crappy provider because i hear similar things about other dsl isp's. when it works it's great. but i wouldn't recommend them, here in nyc at least, if you intend to run anything important (mail server) over your dsl connection. the turnaround for getting a covad tech to come in and fix your problem is just way too long.

Transmeta mayhap?
But would that be an offer he couldn't refuse?
i don't know if hook is a transmeta type of guy. i think it's more likely that he goes off to work on everquest.
isn't really conducive to organized production (a-la corporate workplace, irregardless of what you may think of that).
another thing that tends to hinder the "corporate workplace", is when doze guys don't speak so great.
