11/05   Today's the day: http://www.dcd.uscourts.gov/notice.html
        \_ if i had two pistols i'd run around yelling "yippie kiya"
           and shootings round into the air.
           and shooting rounds into the air.
                \_ The decision made you richer?  I doubt that.
                   \_ Damn straight.  doubt away, baby.
                   \_ There are other reasons to rejoice besides personal
                      wealth.  You might see that one day.

        \_ "The Findings will be posted in two versions, PDF and WordPerfect."
           No MS Word. :-)  -- yuen
           \_ Gov't and law use almost exclusively WordPerfect & PDF.
                \_ Because MSWord doesn't count words correctly by the way
                   the courts want word counts done.  WordPerfect does.
           \_ You can still read WordPerfect document with MS Word. Hahaha!
                \_ "hahaha!"?  Uhm, what decade are you in?  There's been
                   reasonable cross word processor import/exporting for the
                   better part of this decade and it was at least ok in the
                   late 80's.  Are you stoned or something?  I don't get what
                   you're hahaha'ing about.
        \_ http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/ap/19991105/ts/microsoft.html  Yeah!
        \_ anyone notice that MS is releasing _its_ statement in
           WP format -- which is the first _reference_ to WP I've
           seen on their site? smells cheesy...... =}

3/29    A friend wants a PC (no mac). She doesn't want Dell. Is there a
        good place that can custom build for you (SSD, large RAM, cheap video
        card--no game)?
        \_ As a side note: back in my Cal days more than two decades ago when
           having a 387SX made me the only person with floating-point hardware,
           most machines were custom built.

12/3    Are any of you CSUA alums working at Intel?  Is it possible that we
        might be able to hit Intel up for donated/partially donated (reduced
        price) Core i7 Xeons when they come out?  Who would be a good person
        to contact about something like that?  We're of course willing to put
        out for them - perhaps we'll tattoo an Intel logo on toulouse if that's
        what they want :-p  -- steven

9/16    Tim Sweeney on the future of GPUs
        http://arstechnica.com/articles/paedia/gpu-sweeney-interview.ars
        I like Sweeney, I don't care about Unreal, but ZZT was a heck of a
        game
        \_ Interesting. Co-processor-like units have come and gone
           throughout the history of computing. GPU, co-processor, what-not,

           getting intel from them.

11/29   From the CSUA minutes:
        - Next Gen Console
        -- If we have $1800 in our accounts, should we buy a console:
           4 votes passes.
        -- Console voting: 2 votes each, neither passes
           * 360 = 600, more games

7/9     Are 64-bit Linux servers popular compared to 32-bit ones?  My company
        has a server product that supports 32-bit, and we're trying to see if
        it's worth supporting 64-bit as well.  Thanks.
        \_ in my company, everything linux is 64bit except the handful of
           redhat satellite servers, because redhat's sat server product
           doesn't support running on 64bit systems (yet).  DOH!

11/10   Is there anyway to get C/C++ compilers to automatically compile
        different code for different processors?  I'd like to be able to
        say something like:
          #if defined X86 ...
          #elif defined SPARC ...
          #else ...

10/31   A friend of mine said he's loving Microsoft again because Bill G
        is starting to donate all of his money to charity. He's boycotting
        Google, Yahoo, and other mega companies because they're too big and
        too power and thinks they're all becoming the old Microsoft, whereas
        Microsoft has recently done a lot of good things like investing in
        education and charity. He just paid for a copy of Microsoft Windows
