Oddly, I run a number of VMs that only have 128MB RAM and run just fine. They're complete Linux installs running web servers, NFS servers, custom apps, and more.

Oh wait, you meant JVMs...

Yeah, I think I'll not bother with Eclipse, thanks.

Been there, done that, believe it was patented by iPIX. Not sure who holds it now since they're gone AFAIK...

Seriously, they used this to do those 3D virtual tours.

Submission + - Apple charged with iPod-iTunes music monopoly

Submitted by mblase on Sunday December 31, 2006 @05:42PM

mblase writes: An unspecified plaintiff is asking for unspecified damages from Apple in a lawsuit charging them with creating an illegal monopoly with their FairPlay DRM. Apple said that "the suit, filed in July, centers on Apple's use of a copy-protection system that prevents iTunes music and video from playing on rival devices. As well, songs bought elsewhere aren't easy to play on iPods." Apparently someone hasn't heard you can still rip music from CDs for listening on any MP3 player on the market.

Submission + - IBM says perfect teleportation possible

Submitted by trex279 on Sunday December 31, 2006 @05:16PM

trex279 writes: In the past, the idea of teleportation was not taken very seriously by scientists, because it was thought to violate the uncertainty principle of quantum mechanics, which forbids any measuring or scanning process from extracting all the information in an atom or other object. According to the uncertainty principle, the more accurately an object is scanned, the more it is disturbed by the scanning process, until one reaches a point where the object's original state has been completely disrupted, still without having extracted enough information to make a perfect replica. But the six scientists found a way to make an end run around this logic, using a celebrated and paradoxical feature of quantum mechanics known as the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen effect.

Submission + - Apple Monopoly?

Submitted by Anonymous Coward on Sunday December 31, 2006 @03:44PM

An anonymous reader writes: A lawsuit claims that Apple Computer Inc. has created an illegal monopoly by linking iTunes music and video sales to its iPod players. The lawsuit centers on Apple's use of a copy-protection system that prevents iTunes music and video from playing on rival devices. Is this a good approach to force companies to stop using DRM? Or just a waste of judicial resources?
