  1. Re:Oh, come on! on Why Are T1 Lines Still Expensive? · · Score: 1

    You can do this currently

    You can replace your master socket with a special filtered one, all the phone sockets in your house will be filtered, except the master socket
    The only problem is your modem has to be next to the master socket

  2. Re:Shield frequency modulation on Star Trek Shields Now a Possibility? · · Score: 5, Funny

    i don't know what is more worrying, your knowledge of star trek

    or the fact you know the exact episode this happened

  3. Re:I don't get it on Anti-Spam Suits and Booby-Trapped Motions · · Score: 1

    As slashdot's name is "news for nerds, stuff that matters"

    is this article not classed as "something that matters" ? i mean, personally i thought it was quite interesting, in fact i was expecting the judges to complain that he has glued the pages and such, just shows how much attention they pay

    >Also, as we are talking dual core CPUs, one has to get XP-pro or tablet/mediacenter edition. Costs too damned much, or too damned hard to find.
    Why do you need XP pro, XP Pro is only needed when you have 2 Processors, as in 2 physically separate chips, if you have dual/quad its fine on XP Home which only allows 1 Processor (but as many cores as you can cram onto that)

  5. Re:Will anyone gain anything from this? on The End is Nigh for XP · · Score: 1

    Apparently slashdot deleted all my line feeds - /shrug

  6. Re:Will anyone gain anything from this? on The End is Nigh for XP · · Score: 3, Interesting

    in the past few days when i was trying to get going on ubuntu i mustve asked 8 or 9 questions on the channel, and gotten 1 ... maybe 2 answers It seems that although quite a few people do get answered, a significant number of questions get bogged down in the massive amount of talk Ive tried to get ubuntu going for about 3 days on my PC - and in the end, i had to give up, in between ATI graphics not working, programs crashing and not being able to get a lot of programs to work Maybe in the future, if i get an Nvidia card i will try again, or if ATI starts supporting its cards, i just don't see linux being ready for the world yet

  7. Re:VISTA READY! on Does the Windows Logo Mean Anything? · · Score: 1

    My question to a monitor with that would be, how could it NOT be vista ready

  8. Re:I want to get paid!!! on EU Rejects Microsoft Royalty Proposal · · Score: 1

    at least someone got the point i was trying to make here Even if they didn't do it, but merely threatened to, the EU would most likely have no choice but to crumble, because everyone is so dependant upon MS software

    if u lived in Britain you would see this all the time .....

  10. Re:I want to get paid!!! on EU Rejects Microsoft Royalty Proposal · · Score: 1

    Why doesn't MS just pull out of the EU market The EU would crumble without MS supporting their products in the EU, or selling new computers - MS wins Its a bit unfair to force MS to release its IP, especially for no return
