I'm surprised at no comparisons to VirtualBox here. It strikes me that Xen and VMWare are much more likely to be used in the enterprise sphere, whereas this and VirtualBox are more targeted towards the consumer crowd.
This is a very impressive thing, not just because it makes it easier to test, but more importantly because it promises to allow the same distro scheme used by mainstream linux on cell phones. some may see that as a downside, but if it does develop I think its just one more reason to support open, upgradeable platforms.
Listen, I like the idea of default drop as much as the next guy, I use fwknop all the time, but this is ridiculously easy to lock somebody out of. all i have to do is know the ip address you are logging in from and I can send one spoofed packet every 15 minutes to keep you out, and in the meantime, I can be spoofing 16 other ip addresses to brute force your password. sure, it makes me burn up ip addresses real quick (15/16 wind up being blacklisted immediately) but after 15 minutes it's ok again, and in the meantime, you can't do anything to correct the problem. if you want to secure against brute force, use snort- not cheap tricks.
If my car could drive itself, I would buy a big car and live in it. Sleep your way to work, do your homework on the way to school, commute from Vegas to Denver every day. Screw a house- that money is now gas money. If only wireless broadband were faster...
some people love it, some people hate it, but Qt is good for the novice UI coder with some development experience. Trolltech puts out a book on Qt 4 that is very good.
As far as style, DO YOUR USE CASES. Understanding your users' needs is more important than including every last option. Oh, and a good looking UI will not win you fans as quickly as a well behaving UI- but it helps.
might work, and a lot of the time if a programmer writes one vulnerability like this they're going to write others. check the tarball for the 604, theres a lot of a details on how the hack is performed on tfa.
I disagree. In my experience, OSS empowers the developer, leading to the situation where any one individual's ability to *say* 'do it' is less, but the ability of one person to *actually do it* is much greater, a fact that frankly must be considered a disruptive innovation in its own right.
I'm sorry, but your logic is deeply flawed. To state that it could not and to state that it has not are two totally different things, and to confound the disparate qualities of software engineering and originality is equally invalid. I'm also certain that as an expert on Mathematica, you are aware that it utilizes GNU MPL internally, an open source and freely available library, which they either did not or could not match the performance of.
just wanted to say, if you use linux, you may want to try inotify to similar effect. I wound up using it for a project a while back to set up a watch on all standard files and to make a list of all modifications to the filesystem that it made, archiving the originals and making notes of any new or deleted files. It was very easy to use (the documentation is quite thorough) and saved me a lot of hassle. The only caveat is, of course, that many types of damage could be irreparable to an inotify'd system, whereas nothing is really all that dangerous through a vm.

I realize it's dark in there but this seems a little extreme...

sorry guys, but if i had a nickel for every prediction the motley fool has made I'd be richer than they are.

confirmed working on the 604wifi and 700

I have one and I adore it- this is just icing on the cake! Can't wait to get SSH up!
