I've been puzzled by the idea of building efficient roads based on the following criteria:
1) Minimize total length of roads built (each mile costs 1 point)
2) Minimize distance required to travel between any two cities specified (each mile costs one point, with total distance score = sum of roads required to travel between all distinct pairs of cities)

Notes:
Ignore existing roads in this problem. You are building roads from scratch.

Ignore topography. You can build roads anywhere.

Roads do not need to connect two cities directly... you can have "ghost nodes" between cities that roads connect through, if that makes your system more efficient.

Where would you put the roads to minimize total points? What technique did you use to determine your solution?

No, I'm not in college taking a final exam. I'm just personally curious about this problem.

Hi can someone help me out, what graphics card is better...

BFG NVIDIA GeForce 8500 GT 512MB Video Card - 150$

MSI GeForce 8600GT,512MBPCI-E DX10 - 140$
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So which one would be better, the 8600 is cheaper than the 8500 i don't know why, but it is. It's MSI though and 8500 is BFG. So which would you recommend in getting, i'm not sure which one would be better.

Also for 8600 i'll have to update the power supply *watts* to 400, which is another 50$ or so. For the 8500 I don't have to upgrade it, so what would you suggest in order to play games like Crysis, COD 4, as well as other games in the future like GTA 4, and NHL 09 when it comes out next year, would the 8500 be good enough?

I downloaded a small file, immediately after downloading it I scanned it with AVG which reported that it was a trojan. I then manually deleted the file that i had downloaded and scanned my entire system twice using AVG, each time it told me that there were no threats found. Have I followed the right step to get rid of the trojan or should I do something more?
