It is also relatively common in slower P-IIIs, and is approximately identical to the 440MX (a one-chip version aimed at laptops). 2) The 440BX has the interesting feature of only being able to address up to 128MBit density RAM. This is a relatively widely known issue. 3) Simple maths suggests that if you have a 128MB DIMM with 4 chips on it, they are likely to be 256MBit parts. 4) Marking said DIMMs as being suitable for Pentium-IIs is therefore really indescribably stupid, you wankwits. Please fuck off and die in a great big chemical fire before I get back there to beat you. Love, Matthew. PS, Die. No, really. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Wednesday, November 12th, 2003 2:43 am It's true that you learn something new every day.

The radio conversation was released by the Chief of Naval Operations on 10/10/95 authorized by the Freedom of Information Act. Canadians: Please divert your course 15 degrees to the South to avoid collision. Americans: Recommend you divert your course 15 degrees to the North to avoid a collision. Canadians: Negative. You will have to divert your course 15 degrees to the South to avoid a collision. Americans: This is the Captain of a US Navy ship. I say again, divert YOUR course. Canadians: No, I say again, you divert YOUR course. Americans: THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER USS LINCOLN, THE SECOND LARGEST SHIP IN THE UNITED STATES' ATLANTIC FLEET.
