You seem to be unsure of what you want, so there is no chance of you building anything unless you have something in mind. First you'll need to know what function the chip will do, a microprocessor, signal analysis or transformation (amplifiers etc) or a specific chip to run an algorithm. If...

I'm always so bored in the summer football-wise. Especially now there's no England to watch. Let's just enjoy the last few games of the season before it's over and we have to *gasp* find other things to do.

Yes it's that time of year again. This year United have managed to progress past the semi finals after losing to AC Milan last season in an injury ravaged end. Paul Scholes scored a screaming goal from 25 yards at Old Trafford, and for all Barcelona's possession and pretty passing...

Yes, my bad I meant peers.

Although it's probably likely that you won't be able to finish the torrent with no seeds, it is possible. The peers maybe have different parts of data themselves and over time the full copy can be distributed among them.

Not quite. Newton's law of cooling applies to convection, not conduction. Conduction is governed by Fourier's law which is similar but differs with the constant of proportionality. Seems that Newton's law applies to body's cooling in a draft by forced convection, I don't know how much that...

Don't know if this is what you're looking for, but there's a route program in linux anyway. Wtih similar syntax to your example, take a look at that if you haven't already.

Assuming constant room temperatures, according to Newton's law of cooling the rate at which the body cools is proportional to the difference in temperature between the body and surroundings. Gonna go into calculus here but this can be described as: dx/dt = -k(x - R) where x is the...

I'm taking Computing at A Level as well. It's a good subject, and you get quite a bit of programming freedom but there is still a lot of bureaucratic crap that you have to go through to get decent final grade. I've been developing an Amarok clone for Windows using C# for the past 8 months and...

Mono works fine for me, but it's more difficult building a GUI app than using VS.NET on windows. The C# language and general .NET classes support is excellent in mono though. you can simply write your code, run gmcs on it and out pops your executable. Using monodevelop is easier for more complex...

As a heavy Linux user, there are a lot of apps that I wish worked on Windows when I inevitably have to use it to do college work. One of them is Kate, a great text editor with syntax highlighting and indentation etc. Sometimes I just want edit a source file without having to open a large IDE...

I thought it said wikimedia, including wikipedia sites etc. Then I realised what it was :rolleyes:.

Depends on whether you actually need 4 cores. Dual cores can be useful when multitasking with media, like video editing, AV scanning and the like. Personally I'd go for a dual core. The 2.5GHz applies to both cores.

You'll have to check the requirements of the individudal game, but since it's integrated graphics you'll be severely limited to the types of games you can play.

First I'd check the RAM using memtest as BigB suggested, then check whether your motherboard actually supports sticks of that capacity, you may need a BIOS update.

Search for "Finite simple group of order 2" on youtube for a more hardcore and much better harmonising song.

The CD ISO files have an associated md5 checksum on the file mirror, usually something like "filename-md5.txt", inside this file you'll see a string which is the MD5 hash of the main iso file. run md5sum ubuntu-cd-image.iso and when it's done it'll spit out a hash. If this hash matches the hash...

I think it's a lot better than the 5500, more on par with the 5900ish. But find benchmarks to check.

Java isn't usually used to make web pages, if you're thinking of creating dynamic websites than server side scripting like PHP is what you should use. Other options are ASP/.NET, Ruby etc. You can't embed Java into HTML (except with applets, but that's not really embedding the code into HTML)...

There's a few places where you can put up your domain for sale. I use namecheap, and I think they have a feature where you can put up your domain for sale on auction.
