Some software comes with the license when purchased off the shelf, or an OEM license when bundled with hardware.

Some of these games, such as Pyramid from Battlestar Galactica, become real card games as the holder of the intellectual property develops and markets a suitable deck and ruleset for the game, while others, such as " Exploding Snap " from the Harry Potter franchise, lack sufficient descriptions of rules, or depend on cards or other hardware that are infeasible or physically impossible.

Some processors, like the Intel 80386 and its successors, have hardware support for context switches, by making use of a special data segment designated the Task State Segment or TSS.

Some have hardware support for operations like scanning for a substring, arbitrary-precision BCD arithmetic, or transcendental functions, while others have only 8-bit addition and subtraction.

Some digital synthesizers now exist in the form of " softsynth " software that synthesizes sound using conventional PC hardware, though they require careful programming and a fast CPU to get the same latency response as their dedicated equivalents.

Some non-software industries are beginning to use techniques similar to those used in free software development for their research and development process ; scientists, for example, are looking towards more open development processes, and hardware such as microchips are beginning to be developed with specifications released under copyleft licenses ( see the OpenCores project, for instance ).

Some motherboards have two PCI-E 16x slots, to allow more than 2 monitors without special hardware, or use a special graphics technology called SLI ( for Nvidia ) and Crossfire ( for ATI ).

Some systems use dedicated hardware to reduce the load on the host CPU, as with Symbolic Sound Corporation's Kyma System, and the Creamware / Sonic Core Pulsar / SCOPE systems, which used several DSP chips hosted on a PCI card to power an entire studio's worth of instruments, effects, and mixers.

Some hardware vendors, especially IBM, use the term as a synonym for firmware, so that all code in a device, whether microcode or machine code, is termed microcode ( such as in a hard drive for instance, which typically contains both ).

Some IBM PC clone vendors offered somewhat customised hardware solutions that were delivered running NeXTSTEP on Intel, such as the Elonex NextStation and the Canon object. station 41.

Some common features of queue managers are: re-prioritization of the queue, management of software licenses, and algorithms to best optimize throughput based on various types of hardware in the farm.

( Some 9020 software is apparently still used via emulation on newer hardware.

Some principalities taxed windows, doors, or cabinets to reduce consumption of imported glass and hardware.

Some virtual machines emulate hardware that only exists as a detailed specification.

Some operating systems can control Wake-on-LAN behaviour via hardware drivers.

Some floating-point hardware only supports the simplest operations — addition, subtraction, and multiplication.

* Some microcontrollers provide special hardware interfaces which can't be used to take arbitrary control of a system or directly run code, but instead they allow the insertion of boot code into bootable non-volatile memory ( like flash memory ) via simple protocols.

Some, however, must resort to exploits in order to run, because the manufacturer has attempted to lock the hardware to stop it from running unlicensed code.

; CRC-based framing: Some telecommunications hardware uses CRC-based framing.

Some also have real-time performance constraints that must be met, for reasons such as safety and usability ; others may have low or no performance requirements, allowing the system hardware to be simplified to reduce costs.

Some have to be recompiled to work on the Titanium due to various small hardware changes, though in most cases the problems can be fixed by using a utility such as GhostBuster, by Olivier Armand and Kevin Kofler.

Some software and hardware, such as Voice Finger, Freedom Scientific's JAWS, the Free and Open Source alternative Orca etc.

Some application functions are actually faster in Classic than under Mac OS 9 on equivalent hardware, due to performance improvements in the newer operating system's device drivers.

Some Load Balancer appliances include specialized hardware to process SSL.

Some fiscal changes are important.

Some distinctive accents can be found on the East Coast ( for example, in eastern New England and New York City ) partly because these areas were in close contact with England and imitated prestigious varieties of British English at a time when these were undergoing changes.

Some other English changes in which most North American dialects do not participate:

Some believe the revision in question was the work of a single reviser, who in his changes and additions expressed the local interpretation put upon Acts in his own time.

Some legitimate customers had problems with this though if they made certain changes to their own phone, such as replacing the battery and / or antenna.

Some of the minor effects include changes to the airflow that lead to problems in control.

Some microbes are unable to tolerate changes to low pHs and are killed.

Some canals attempted to keep changes in level down to a minimum.

Some methods of fertility awareness involve estimating a woman's periods of fertility and infertility by observing changes in her body.

Some Conservative theologians, like Seymour Siegel have stressed that the word, " Conservative ," must be understood in the way it is used in the British political system: that the laws and traditions have to be conserved or preserved, with changes allowed only when there is an overriding reason — almost always, an overriding ethical reason — to do so.

Some authors have not succeeded in adapting to the changes brought about by modern technology ; others, such as Carl Hiaasen, have.

Some are concerned with producing something as close as possible to the original ; others will introduce major changes in order to make the dance more interesting.

Some forms of Buddhism hold belief in cycles in which life span of human beings changes according to human nature.

Some argue that these changes invalidate previous criticisms ; others claim that this is simply watering the process down.

Some examples include mood changes, sleepiness, or unsteadiness in gait.

Some of the changes include:

Some preschool ( ages 3 – 4 ) intervention programs like " Head Start " do not produce lasting changes of IQ, although they may confer other benefits.

Some cited these changes as proof that human anatomy had changed since the time of Galen.

Some genetic disorders are passed down from the parents ' genes, but others are always or almost always caused by new mutations or changes to the DNA.

Some graphemes may not represent any sound at all ( like the b in English debt ), and often the rules of correspondence between graphemes and phonemes become complex or irregular, particularly as a result of historical sound changes that are not necessarily reflected in spelling.

Some banknotes were stamped to indicate changes of denomination.

Some less common side effects are allergic reaction, blood disorders, changes in mood, racing heartbeat, mental fogginess, anxiety, lethargy, difficulty urinating, spasm of the ureter, irregular or depressed respiration, and rash.

Some kinds of changes are a part of the everyday routine of information processing and adhere to a predefined procedure, which reduces the overall level of risk to the processing environment.

Some goods are still sold and distributed from Jersey, despite these changes.

Some precision or fragile objects — such as passengers, who need time to sense stress changes and adjust their muscle tension or suffer conditions such as whiplash — can be safely subjected not only to a maximum acceleration, but also to a maximum jerk.
