I didn't relate to Sharon Tate as being anything but a store mannequin ... sounded just like an IBM machine ... She kept begging and pleading and pleading and begging, and I got sick of listening to her, so I stabbed her.

Although Compaq kept its BIOS proprietary, eventually the Phoenix BIOS and similar commercially-available products permitted computer makers to build essentially 100 %- compatible clones without having to reverse-engineer the IBM PC BIOS themselves.

( It later emerged that differential cryptanalysis was already known — and kept a secret — by both IBM and the NSA.

IBM responded by proposing Token Ring as an alternative to Ethernet but kept such tight control over standardization that competitors were wary of using it.

The name faced disagreements from the IBM corporate naming committee because the nomenclature system for the IBM computers was then numerical ; however, the brand name " ThinkPad " was kept as the press showed appreciation for the title.

In 1968, IBM kept PGA Tour statistics for the first time, but did not continue this practice in the immediately subsequent years.

From 1996, he was Director of Process Development ( RUP ) at Rational Software, and kept this position when Rational was acquired by IBM in 2003.

He lived in Connecticut, where taxes were lower ; but kept his staff across the border in New York State so, it has been suggested, that IBM would not be seen as similarly evading taxes.

NEC kept much of its hardware and platform proprietary or under license, so while it had a virtual monopoly in the Japanese market, later IBM PC clones with DOS / V and Windows from companies such as Hitachi and Panasonic that did not require such license fees ( like Epson's 98 clones ) flooded the market and displaced NEC.

Compaq produced some of the first IBM PC compatible computers, being the first company to legally reverse-engineer IBM Personal Computer.

EISA was much favoured by manufacturers due to the proprietary nature of MCA, and even IBM produced some machines supporting it.

" However due to illegalities some of the " street artists " were arrested and charged with vandalism, and IBM was fined more than US $ 120, 000 for punitive and clean-up costs.

However, about once a week some character spots the fact that HAL is one letter ahead of IBM, and promptly assumes that Stanley and I were taking a crack at the estimable institution ... As it happened, IBM had given us a good deal of help, so we were quite embarrassed by this, and would have changed the name had we spotted the coincidence.

Some third party hard disks for IBM PCs were sold as kits including a controller card and replacement power supply, and some were integrated with their controller into a single expansion card, commonly called a " Hard Card ".

Some of IBM's engineers and other employees wanted to use the IBM 801 processor, some would prefer the new Motorola 68000, while others argued for a small and simple microprocessor, such as the MOS Technology 6502 or Zilog Z80, which had been used in earlier personal computers.

Although IBM no longer manufactures 3270 terminals the IBM 3270 protocol is still commonly used via terminal emulation to access some mainframe-based applications.

Dalakas ( 2006 ) suggested that a chain of events causes IBM — some sort of virus, likely a retrovirus, triggers the cloning of T cells.

It appears that sIBM and polymyositis share some common features, especially the initial sequence of immune system activation, however, polmyositis comes on over weeks or months, does not display the subsequent muscle degeneration and protein abnormalities as seen in IBM, and as well, polymyositis tends to respond well to treatments, IBM does not.

MIME's use, however, has grown beyond describing the content of email to describe content type in general, including for the web ( see Internet media type ) and as a storage for rich content in some commercial products ( e. g., IBM Lotus Domino and IBM Lotus Quickr ).

He said that " IBM had developed a paper plan for such a machine and took this paper plan across the country to some 20 concerns that we thought could use such a machine.

Since UML has evolved, some of these methods have been recast to take advantage of the new notations ( for example OMT ), and new methods have been created based on UML, such as IBM Rational Unified Process ( RUP ).

Despite these limitations, several software packages have managed to provide virtualization on the x86 architecture, even though dynamic recompilation of privileged code, as first implemented by VMware, incurs some performance overhead as compared to a VM running on a natively virtualizable architecture such as the IBM System / 370 or Motorola MC68020.

However, some older operating systems ( such as OS / VS1 and OS / VS2 SVS ) and even modern ones ( such as IBM i ) are single address space operating systems that run all processes in a single address space composed of virtualized memory.

On 6 March 2003 they announced that they were suing IBM for $ 1 billion, claiming that IBM transferred SCO trade secrets into Linux.

That left arguing over trade secrets, which after some opposition, was hard to take beyond a breach of contract between SCO and IBM, and consequentially a claim only against IBM.

: SCO sues IBM over its contributions to Linux, claiming that IBM stole UNIX trade secrets and gave them to Linux kernel developers.

After a scaled down version of Deep Blue, Deep Blue Jr., played Grandmaster Joel Benjamin, Hsu and Campbell decided that Benjamin was the expert they were looking for to develop Deep Blue's opening book, and Benjamin was signed by IBM Research to assist with the preparations for Deep Blue's matches against Garry Kasparov.

After 1987, IBM PC compatibles dominated both the home and business markets of commodity computers, with other notable alternative architectures being used in niche markets, like the Macintosh computers offered by Apple Inc. and used mainly for desktop publishing at the time, the aging 8-bit Commodore 64 which was selling for $ 150 by this time and became the world's best-selling computer, the 16-bit Commodore Amiga line used for television and video production and the 16-bit Atari ST used by the music industry.

After this, support for other platforms dwindled until compiler development ceased for all platforms except IBM mainframes.

After graduating from Cochise, he moved to Kentucky where he joined IBM as a technician and was later promoted to engineer.

After a year of negotiations and design studies, IBM agreed to make a one-of-a-kind version of its S / 360-65 mainframe computer with dynamic address translation ( DAT ) features that would support virtual memory and accommodate UM's desire to support time-sharing.

After discussions with the small company Microsoft, IBM decided to use 86-DOS ( QDOS ), a CP / M-like operating system that a Seattle area computer company had made for its own hardware.
