<syamajala> pci-express!
<kingsley> ah i found the article
<kingsley> its at the Jacob Javits Convention Center
<SleepyDog> kingsley: I applied, gave them a resume, they accepted me
<kingsley> if i'd cared more, i might go there tommorow
<Andares> Whaz NHS?
<kingsley> i think
<SleepyDog> I just gotta fill out a profile and they'll put me on the list
<kingsley> SleepyDog: got a link?
<postlogic> syamajala: Sounds like something I'd waste my time playing Minesweeper on.
<kingsley> lol
<syamajala> i would install gentoo if there was a nvidia driver for ppc
<kingsley> syamajala: are you planning on buying it?
<Andares> You're kidding. there isn't?
<syamajala> no
<SleepyDog> kingsley: nhs.us
<kingsley> what do you need to have to get into nhs
<SleepyDog> A decent GPA
<kingsley> o?
<kingsley> What is your GPA SleepyDog ?
<syamajala> http://bsdhalo.willisburg.org/node/14/
<SleepyDog> Well, if you have adequate grades, they'll contact you for a resume asking what you do besides school
<syamajala> kingsley SleepyDog is dumb as a rock
<SleepyDog> :(
<SleepyDog> kingsley: 4.1 weighted, something like 3.4 unweighted
<Andares> Evil is just plain bad!
<SleepyDog> Indeed!
<kingsley> neat
<SleepyDog> I think I have a chance of getting into the college I want to :)
<kingsley> so what do you do beside school SleepyDog ?
<syamajala> heh
<SleepyDog> Not much, but enough apparently
<SleepyDog> I've been in a few clubs, ran track last year
<SleepyDog> And I have a job
<kingsley> neat
<kingsley> You know the propaganda on apple.com is almost good enough for me to think its credible
<syamajala> u mean the stories about people switching?
<kingsley> No
<kingsley> The performance comparison
<syamajala> o
<syamajala> stupid they are comparing the new g5 systems to the old ones
<msg43> link?
<kingsley> msg43: apple.com
<kingsley> yea
<SleepyDog> I've been thinking of getting an iPod video
<kingsley> Its a waste of money
<SleepyDog> I know, but it's so damn ***y
<kingsley> I use to watch video on my sharp zaurus
<SleepyDog> :D
<syamajala> u can't even find the word "p4" on the benchmark page
<kingsley> 320x240 isn't good enough for the majority of video clips
<kingsley> It's good enough to porn though
<kingsley> syamajala: Thats because apple is switching to intel next year, They can't make the p4 look bad now
<kingsley> /to/for
<guru54> wow
<guru54> i installed arch rebooted and all i get is a line that says GRUB and a blinking line
<syamajala> that means u messed up grub
<SleepyDog> You think Apple's switch will make the ppc machines cheaper?
<kingsley> probably
<guru54> well i didnt think i installed grub lol i think i installed lilo
<syamajala> SleepyDog no
<kingsley> ppc will be the next old world macs after apple switches to x86
<kingsley> you know considering what has happened in the last 30 years, it seems that the Computer Scientist of the 70's had better foresight and planning than those of the 80's and 90's
<kingsley> This is based on the fact that x86 and unix are both from the 70's, where told to be obsolete in the 80's and 90's, and are back again as the system of choice in 2000
<kingsley> s/where/were
<guru54> yea
<guru54> i can agree
<WillySilly> hey
<guru54> hi
<kingsley> caches also came out of the 80's and 90's but they're getting significantly large now, thats its only a matter of time before they replace our current main memmory
<msg43> Is there some app that would help get rid of unwanted .desktop files?
<kingsley> bash?
<kingsley> a bash or zsh script should do the trick
<msg43> kingsley, no I was looking of some gui tool :)
<kingsley> ok
<kingsley> You know the price for the hardware on apple.com isn't too bad
<guru54> like individual parts?
<kingsley> Their laptops looks like resonable deals
<kingsley> guru54: no, entire systems
<guru54> heh
<kingsley> the ibook, especially the one for $999 is a bargain at the price
<guru54> remember when the floating screen imac was the fad
<kingsley> yea
<kingsley> I think I figureout how apple was able to make a comeback, they lowered the price of their hardware
<kingsley> it has to be
<kingsley> well some are still overcharged
<guru54> i might have to check out a ibook, though i think im going to buy a new thinkpad
<kingsley> the ipod and mac mini still aren't worth their cost
<kingsley> ahah
<guru54> i like 600X IBM Thinkpad so i could go for a new one
<kingsley> i was looking into that the other day
<kingsley> i have a T22
<kingsley> I was looking into the X series
<guru54> mines a little 500mhz P3 with 320mbs of ram
<guru54> and 12gb 4200rpm hd
<kingsley> my T22 is kinda old
<kingsley> 900 mhz P3, 256 RAM, 20gb 4200 hd ;-p
<kingsley> whast the 600X series like?
<kingsley> it is portable or desktop replacement?
<guru54> what i listed above
<kingsley> s/it is/is it
<kingsley> ;-/
<kingsley> They're very expensive though
<postlogic> Mine's a tiny 3ghz p4 with 512mb ram, 80gb hdd and 15,4" lcd widescreen :'|
<postlogic> *grin*
<kingsley> postlogic: what model?
<guru54> yea my uncle went and dropped $1500 on a new gateway laptop
<guru54> its pretty nice
<postlogic> Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo D 1840.
<postlogic> Getting kinda old now, though.
<kingsley> Thinkpads are well supported by linux ;-p
<postlogic> Besides my 1,2ghz server, this is my only machine.
<postlogic> kingsley: This one's not.
<postlogic> I had to wait almost 1 year for the kenrel to support most of my motherboar.d
<postlogic> Especially the gfx chipset.
<kingsley> postlogic: a Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo D 1840 isn't a thinkpad
<postlogic> Damn SiS.
<postlogic> kingsley: I never said.
<kingsley> ah
<kingsley> ok
<kingsley> what thinkpad model i meant
