Re: w00t Beta Testing w00t
Heb je wel eens (was een jaar of twee terug) enn (Jeugd)Journaalfilmpje gezien over een bepaald vakantiedorpje in Spanje? Komen bijna alleen maar Nederlanders, end dan nog van die "typische" "doorsnee" stereotiepe Nederlanders. Een van de meest verkochte artikelen van de lokale supermarkt (gerund door een Nederlander) was..... pindakaas. Zelfs de lokale bevolking sprak vloeiend Nederlands. Er waren meer kaaskoppen dan Spanjolen in dat gebied.
You think we're not capable of catching up on Canadians? You should see the Costa del Sol in Spain during summer.....

Re: SEV Betatest...
Peanut BUTTER, strangely translated..... It's supposed to be "popular" amongst people for use on a slice of bread. We (as being non-stereotypical Dutch people) most often use it to make..... how do you call "pindasaus" in English?

Re: SEV Betatest...
What is pindasaus? In the US most peanut butter is used for sandwich making and in candy/cookies. Probably a lot gets eaten right from the jar too.
Sandwich of choice is usually peanut butter and jelly. But peanut butter and cheese is good. Also peanut butter on a stalk of celery is quite good

OMG! Very nice... but you need to build an enclosure for it... if only to shield the EM radiation from it

Could you tell us the chances of getting a beta testing slot?

That's a question that I can't answer for two reasons..
1) It depends on how many people apply to be in the beta. (and since Aaron allready said he's accepting applications til the end of the month, that number is not available yet.)
2) I have no idea how many slots Aaron will be making available. (and no, I'm not going to ask him, he's currently very busy getting the AI ready for beta.)
That said, your chances are better than playing the New York State Lottery.

And full speed of 13Ghz, it put out as much heat as a blow torch, could hardly keep it cool sitting in the open. In the old alfa case I was using, CPU temps would hit throttle stops in less than an hour at full load.
