or perhaps one of Lenin's countrymen, who also said:"Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war in order to whip the citizenry into a patriotic fervor, for patriotism is indeed a double-edged sword. It emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the mind. And when the drums of war have reached fever pitch, and the blood boils with hate and the mind has closed, the leader will have no need to seize the rights of liberty. Rather, the citizenry, infused with fear and blinded by patriotism, will offer up their rights unto the leader, and gladly so."
They were probably spoken by Vladimir Lenin <g> -or Karl Marx

One of my mailsigs actually. I like it a lot, being a somewhat apolitical guy. =)
heh... I refereed some real live professional ice hockey games in Basingstoke, of all places. Hard to believe I know. =)I'm about 25 miles away, in Whitchurch which is between Andover and Basingstoke.At 19:55 +0000 12/18/02, Tom Phippen wrote:hampshire, UK, nothing of note reallyAlso Hampshire UK, (Aldershot) Even less of note here ;-)

I am running OSX on my 2400 G3 400mhz with 80meg of ram. I have recently purchased a 96meg RAM chip which will arrive in about a week. My question is...How much faster is OSX with 112meg than with 80meg? Has anyone experienced both?uh...a whole lot slower than a TiBook or new iBook, with 128/256/512/1GB available at much lower cost.
Yeah, I know, I am being *way* too practical! =)

Project 2400-700mhz was approved for research expenditures and now really has gone into engineering so final feasibility will be determined in about 6 weeks. There are two cache possibilities at 256kb and 512kb inline. Maybe it'll be good Xmas news.
Anyone hear from Sidney Ho *lately*? News on that CPU Upgrade possibility?
He seems to have been sucked into a work-related black hole (something I am often guilty of as well!)
Sounds like Sidney needs a vacation, and I have just the right idea... it should only take one lap. =)
(inside joke... should prompt a whinny straight from the horse's mouth! =)
