  1. SDSL on How Do Businesses Scale Their Bandwidth Needs? · · Score: 1

    Where I work we have an SDSL line, 10Mbit up/down, with the bandwidth being charged by the 95th percentile of sustained 3Mbits/sec...it comes out to a fairly reasonable number, similar to about 20-25 consumer DSL Lines...we will be changing that for fibre, same bandwidth, almost the same price...

    T1's and other leased lines are too expensive...check for SDSL offerings in your area

    Granted, my office is in downtown of a large city, so we have more choices...

  2. Re:Hmm on Sony DRM Installs a Rootkit? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    To make matters worse, not only is everything hidden, but you can't just delete the files and reg keys or you'll cripple your system...the author of the article is a developer and he spend a lot of time just getting rid of the damned thing...I know I couldn't do it

  3. Re:OS's fault on Sony DRM Installs a Rootkit? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Yeah, that's called "Trusted Computing"...where Microsloth decides what you can and can't run...

  4. Re:and now with no liability on Sony DRM Installs a Rootkit? · · Score: 5, Informative

    RTFA, the EULA does not mention this at all...the writer of the article made a specific point with respect to this.

  5. Re:WOW on Microsoft's Vigilante Investigation of Zombies · · Score: 1

    "this is just plain common sense"

    If its common sense, then why do so few people have it?

  6. Interesting place for a company on Exeem Open Beta Released · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Just looked up exeem.com on whois...looks like a caribbean island is a good place to be if the MPAA comes calling...take a look for yourself:

  7. If you have a Palm Pilot on Remote Controls On The March · · Score: 1

    Then use OmniRemote. I have this program, it can learn from any remote an unlimited number of buttons, and even if your remote does not use a standard IR frequency, you can change it. Best of all, if you don't have the remote, you can download IR codes in hex format for whatever device you want. And to top it off, you can design your own interface on the Palm screen and create macros...(one button to turn on my receiver, TV, Digital Cable box and whatever else I want)...

  8. Re:Contractor Laptop on Lessons Learned From Blaster · · Score: 1

    Thing is, MAC addresses are not as hard-wired as you might think...there is a program called SMAC for windows that lets you change your machine's MAC address...or on an nForce2 mobo you can do the same thing in the bios, or in the device manager...There are probably other ways as well...

  9. Did anyone find this article hard to read? on Beyond Megapixels - Part II · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Reading this one over I found it rather hard to keep track of what was being said in a logical manner..the guy is all over the place without a logical structure to the paragraphs... Part one is better written I think, or better edited maybe...any thoughts?

  10. Taking a lesson from Apple? on Acer Plans A 16 lb. Notebook · · Score: 1

    Kind of makes you wonder if they took a design lesson from Apple during the days of the first Portable (or should I say "luggable"?)

  11. Re:Cache always help on Xeon vs. Opteron Performance Benchmarks · · Score: 2, Informative

    Dude, read the article. The new Xeon has a 4meg L3 cache, but its effects are limited because the FSB is only 400Mhz.
