    I could swear that I just saw CmdrTaco post another article on the Mandrake based supercomputer cluster. I clicked on the link to mod him down as redundant and a man in black told me that there was "nothing to see here."

    On returning to the home page, I find the posting gone and this Matrix one in its place. Too strange.

    According to the article, the dailies will be transmitted over the internet and will be Triple DES encrypted plus PGP CAST 128 for the files.

    I humbly wish to propose the target subject of the next distributed.net project....

      Yeah, by the time D.net finishes decoding the trailers you should be able to pick up the DVDs of the movie cheap, especially considering how the sun would be pretty much burnt out by that point.

      I read the internet for the articles.

    I think they should get George Carlin to do a cameo, or maybe even Alex Winter... Pop quiz, hotshot. Somebody asks you which one played Bill and which one played Ted. What do you do? WHAT DO YOU DO?

    As a professional movie critic (laughs) I think the best way to get a higher ROI is to put trinity into a smaller leather outfit. *wink*
