You can download mail to your local client. Use replication, that keep the database on your machine and syncs it with the server when you login and replicate. Notes is a very capable groupware system and has some added features like the development of internal apps. My company uses it extensively. I used to be a Notes hater until I was forced to use it.
You can do way more than upgrade the hard drive. People have installed ethernet, been able to setup a web based control to schedule shows remotely. Not to mention adding ram, enabling caller id, ripping shows via ethernet/etc. There are many more things than just upgrading the hard drive.
Why is GM so interested in selling off hughes? It seems like a profitable business venture that is only getting better. Anyone who has ever had DTV certainly prefers it over the local cable monopoly. I was concerned with what the echostar merger would do to the Directv with TiVo receiver or now called "Directv DVR"
Or if you are having trouble with the click and swipe just click on the address bar and hit esc this selects all the text in the bar again. Quite handy to know.
I wish I would have known about this sooner. I am only about 45 minutes to an hour north of columbus and would gladly come but I didn't find out about it until today when the story was posted. Maybe I will bring it up at our local lug meeting and see if we can get a few of us to attend next month.
I would recommend twig. I use it as a web based frontend to my imap server, it also has the added benefits of having a calendar, contacts list, and web based news all from your server!
Through the years my dad and I had at least 6 high speed's and I wish I still had one, that is definitely on my list of wants along with a simpsons and a getaway high speed 2:-)
I know I am one of those people who utilizes the dual tuners in my DTiVo... I think if you checked you would find out that just about every one of those boxes is setup for a dual lnb dish. You never realize how many shows overlap each other that you want to watch until you goto schedule another and it gives you a conflict. I even still get occasional conflicts with the dual tuners!
Why does the department of justice keep insisting that things are dealt with quickly? This is the first time in history where an antitrust trial has been mostly upheld by some of the most respected courts in the nation and suddenly being settled. The doj had this thing pretty much in the bag and all of a sudden we don't want to deal with it anymore? Come on this is getting rediculous. At this point maybe the judge will stand up and do what is right. If one of us was found guilty of a crime they wouldn't suddenly be persuaded to settle the case!
I don't see any reason to be concerned about what this individual is saying. We all know some people care about linux and some give it a bad name. Myself it is a great idea, a revolution if you will and I intend to use it regardless of the desktop numbers.
When I first heard of the tragedy I had users coming to me wondering why they couldn't get to the news sites. I checked myself and sure enough most were dead as could be. So I checked slashdot and sure enough got right in. I just want to say GREAT job and you guys deserve a pat on the back for this. I get so tired of hearing all the people complain about/. and ct and michael, etc... It sis really great that we were able to share the news all together. Thanks again/. !
There is no way I will vote for bush. I didn't this time and I certainly won't next. The interesting thing is I didn't think all of the people who had the theory that the administration would effect the case were right. I really believed that it wouldn't effect the justice departments case, boy was I wrong!
If you goto an auction for vendors you can buy centipede machines for around 500 sometimes less. Check out USamusement for auction locations and dates. They also have pinballs, jukeboxes, air hockey, sit down videos, almost any coin-op equipment you can think of.
I have to say that I have been exposed to directv signals since the very first rca receiver my parents bought for about 1300 with the dual lnb and the high speed data port. I currently have time warner cable at my house and opted for the digital cable about 6 months ago. In my area the digital cable is excellent. The problem with digital cable is the regular channels are still analog so they aren't any better but the higher up movie channels and other premiums that are in the digital block are great. Note I don't work for them and wasn't at all happy with their service when I first bought my house but when I got digital I was happy, and our road runner kicks ass around here. 3Mb down almost all the time and still about 60KB/s up!
I bought the thing last year and used it for quite a while under windows. About six months ago I started attempting to move my main pc to linux and get rid of windows entirely. It was then that I realized that this was my problem. What did I do? After a few months of cursing about not being able to switch I jumped on ebay and bought an hp scanjet 4p for 30 some odd dollars shipped, works like a charm and I no longer have ANY microsoft software on my pc. The really bothersome part of hp's attitude toward this scanner is they also don't support pci macs either! I have a pci mac I thought I would hook it to, and then I realized that hp also doesn't support macos of any version either only windows! I hope they can fix this problem sometime, I gave my 3300c away to a friend who uses windows since it was of no value at all to me.
I have been using mozilla since some of the VERY early builds and watched it mature pretty damn slow. The mozilla builds for the past 6 months at least have been pretty good. I don't buy for a second that your machine with that much ram runs mozilla slowly. I use a Pentium II 366 laptop with 128MB of ram and it runs just fine. Starts up in around 7 seconds or so sometimes 15 if my load averages are pretty high. BTW the xp req that I have heard are crazy, recommended ram is around 256 I believe. Min is 128, not positive but that is what I remember.
Some of my friends used to use old toshiba double spin caddy drives because they had a test jumper on the back that makes them play audio cd's when you insert them. The eject button when pressed once would skip to the next track but if you held it down for a few seconds it would eject the cd. It was pretty cool. Anyway I just wanted to post that old scsi drives don't need a play button if they have a test jumper on the back.
I absolutely agree with this statement and would like to add a bit myself. I think the most relevant part of this story is that many of us 20something slashdotters will be settling down and having a family in the years ahead and could have to deal with our kids doing something like this. I know I am certainly interested in anything that might make me a better parent in the future!
I would find it hard to believe that you have tried out the latest mozilla browsers. They run pretty well, render almost as well as ie5.x and I run moz.08 on my toshiba portege laptop. That is a pii 366 w 128MB debian unstable, 2.4.2kern, x4.0.2. The problems that you describe sound like problems from the days of m12-m14 or so.
I don't know why everyone seems to think that we have it so bad when it comes to broadband. I personally live in a relatively small town with less than 200,000 people and we have time warner for our local cable company. I can't exactly complain because we get roadrunner for 39.99 month the bandwidth is unlimited with the exception of an upstream cap of around 60-75K downstream I have seen as high as 900K. I guess I have assumed that this is almost the norm in most cities the size of ours. Roadrunner was advertising their millionth customer contest about 6 months ago so apparently just on roadrunner there are 1 million people. That seems like an awful lot to me...
How long has sun been truly giving away solaris 8 for download? Last time I checked you had to pay about 80 dollars for the media kit which kinda made it not free. Of course the 80 for the kit which has somthing like 8 cd's is pretty reasonable but if you can download the cd images...
This was an allegation that larry flint almost went public with but couldn't get the original woman to talk about it. He went on the howard stern show to talk about it. Howard challenged that the bush camp answer the question one way or another and they refused to even say no. It deserved an answer no doubt!

No but they have giant flags with Peace Love linux logos just like the ones painted on the sidewalks... I have one I got from an IBM rep.

Dude you might want to check out the citrix website, they have native clients for linux, no need for win4lin to use citrix.
