In this case the network interface looks for a DHCP server offering a PXE or bootp boot image.

Early versions of the product were criticized for the poor user interface, described alternatively as something that " looks like an application that was ported from OS / 2, with unclear buttons " or a " clunky, text-based UI ", but the reviewers praised its malware detection and removal capabilities, stating " PestPatrol is the most effective anti-spyware system-short of a switch to Linux-that we've ever used ".

In unicast routing, each router examines the destination address of an incoming packet and looks up the destination in a table to determine which interface to use in order for that packet to get closer to its destination.

More recently, software with similar capabilities has been developed to allow manipulation of digital audio files stored on computers using turntables with special vinyl records ( e. g. Final Scratch, M-Audio Torq, Serato Scratch Live ) or computer interface ( e. g. Traktor DJ Studio, Mixxx, Virtual DJ ).

The various services all took on a common interface device, an " i-bar " branded with the BBCi logo, which sought to emphasise the brand across different technologies by providing similar navigation.

Dia uses a controlled single document interface ( CSDI ) similar to GIMP and Inkscape.

While the game engine itself remained relatively similar between all games in the series, the interface went through many changes.

Based on the same Gecko layout engine as Mozilla Firefox, K-Meleon uses native Windows application programming interface ( API ) to create the user interface, instead of using Mozilla's cross-platform XML User Interface Language ( XUL ) layer, and as a result, is tightly integrated into the look and feel of the Windows desktop ; this approach is similar to that of Galeon and Epiphany ( for the GNOME desktop ), and Camino ( for Mac OS X ).

Using a control interface similar to the industry standard Steenbeck flatbed controller, Lightworks was designed to be a non-linear editing system.

Changes made to the GUI ( Graphical User Interface ) include the Launchpad ( similar to the home screen of iOS devices ), auto-hiding scrollbars that only appear when they are being used, and Mission Control, which unifies Exposé, Spaces, Dashboard, and full-screen applications within a single interface.

In the earlier games the interface is very similar to that of Bard's Tale, but from Might and Magic VI: The Mandate of Heaven onward, the interface features a scrolling three-dimensional environment similar to that of Doom.

Pico's interface is in many ways very similar to that found in Windows editors, such as Notepad.

Something similar to the interface can be seen in MediaWiki with the classic skin.

Denali does not preserve the application binary interface ( ABI ), and so applications must be recompiled to run within a library operating system ; in this sense it is similar to the Exokernel.

WYSIWYG implies a user interface that allows the user to view something very similar to the end result while the document is being created.

It is frequently used to implement the serial port for IBM PC compatible personal computers, where it is often connected to an RS-232 interface for modems, serial mice, printers, and similar peripherals.

Some operating systems are supplied in both server and desktop versions with similar user interface.

The non-profit project Pediaphon was created in 2006 to provide a similar web-based TTS interface to the Wikipedia.

X. 75, a very similar protocol to X. 25, defines the interface between two X. 25 networks to allow connections to traverse two or more networks.

Some BBS chat programs ( i. e. Celerity BBS ) also used a similar interface.

The Sound Blaster Pro was the first Creative sound card to have a built-in CD-ROM interface.

The IBM DA15 PC game connector has been modified to add a ( usually MPU-401 compatible ) MIDI interface, and this is often implemented in the game connectors on third-party sound cards, for example the Sound Blaster line from Creative Labs.

Fireworks ' user interface is consistent with the rest of Adobe Creative Suite, similar to that of Adobe Photoshop.

In Adobe Creative Suite CS5, WebKit is used to render some parts of the user interface.

The Zen Portable Media Center, announced on January 8, 2004 and released eight months later, is based on Microsoft's Portable Media Center interface, runs Windows Mobile and supports WMV, WMA, and MP3, and can display JPEG images ; other video formats are supported through transcoding.

Because the WD1770 is capable of single density mode and uses the same IBM360 derived floppy disc format as the Intel 8271 found in the BBC Micro, it was also possible to run a DFS filing system with an alternate ROM, such as the P. R. E. S AP4 interface.

The Acorn Business Computer ( ABC ) plan required a number of second processors to be made to work with the BBC Micro platform, but processors such as the Motorola 68000 and National Semiconductor 32016 were unsuitable, and the 6502 was not powerful enough for a graphics based user interface.

The IOCC implements the Micro Channel interface and controls both I / O and DMA transactions between the Micro Channel adapters and the system memory.
