    Wait a second, folks... this isn't a duplicate story! Don't you see? The first one was posted under the Science category, and this article is about Hardware.

    All joking aside, wouldn't it be nice if SlashDot's main page worked just like the moderation system? Every submitted story would start with a value of 1 and each moderator could push a story up or down one point. Of course, it all comes together when each user sets their own threshhold for front page stories...

    I'm guessing this feature has already been suggested for SlashCode implementation. Maybe I should go check...
