Tomcat is also a web server itself. The Apache (or many other web servers) integration is optional (but quite beneficial as Apache is much more flexible for serving static content).
With modem compression technologies you only optimize the link between the client and the ISP. The problem is that the bandwith of the web server limits the number of users connected (aka slashdotted), and gzip'ping the page theoretically doubles or triples that number.
But the server does not ask for the whole aim.exe's hash; it asks for a randomly selected piece of it. You cannot generate a fake-aim.exe where every part of it also generates the same hash value as the actual aim.exe.
The.tgz file that contains the Indy Demos that ships with Kylix has some distribution problems. Some files were omitted in Borland's.tgz and other files had their case changed which has caused nearly all the demos not to compile.
This has nothing to do with the "web applications" in general, but only a stupid piece of software which counts on data at the client.
Any properly set up application uses the price information only to inform the customer; it does not re-ask the client to send the price information back. The only data the browser sends should be the session id; or the shopping basket id. All the inventory, cost, tax etc. is then calculated at the server side.
There is no such chip as a 550 EB, and if it were, it would normally run at 133 MHz. What you have should be a coppermine 550 B, which has a 100 MHz FSB but has an internal cache running at the same speed as the processor. By pushing it to 133 MHz FSB you practically have a 733 EB (maybe exactly the same chip - I don't know about the latencies).
Also, if both boards are running at 133 FSB, how come you get 825 MHz??? (5.5 * 133 != 825)
PS: I have the same system at home (550 B overclocked to 5.5*133=733). Most P3 550 B's are shipped with a better-than-average fan, and since they are.18 micron they don't get as hot as the previous ones.
Well, because you said "hackers can write worms using LotusScript", I chose to explain Notes client's security capabilities. Probably you should know that LotusScript can only run on Notes client, not run on web browsers...

The default ECL (Execution control list) security on the client is set up such that no script can make any harm on your system. You can easily write a malicious LotusScript function, but:
1. You cannot launch it automatically, unless you design a forged memo form, even in which case if the client mailbox does not allow stored forms, it will not work.
2. You can do little on the client, actually you cannot even *read* from a database without user's approval with the default security settings... It also shows the digital signature of the creator of the script. Of course, the user may allow the script to work, but this is something else.
You can have no definitive way of completely stopping malicious code in a programmable environment, and Domino security model does its best.
I have installed a modem sharing hub last year (called Surecom IP-Share) which runs Linux & Apache (for administration interface) which is a DHCP server and a limited firewall... The only difference is that a modem is not included, you have to connect one or two external modems to the device separately. It does automatic load-balancing (which is also configurable) and uses the second modem when needed.
This reminds me the novel by Arthur C. Clarke: Rama; where a robot surgeon cuts the spaceship personnel into peaces because it is not programmed to stop when anything unexpected happens (like the ship bumping into something)...
By the way, where does it say "one cube of sugar lasts for 15 minutes" in the article? All it says is that it uses cube sugar for fuel, and "Chew Chew's sugar high lasts only 15 minutes at best"... It sounds to be more than only one cube.

You can always use mail2web.com, filter the spam and then fire up your actual mail client.
Or you can use IMAP instead of POP3.

Did you see the 5k Chess entry?
Truly fabuluous...
Their web server (http://name.space.xs2.net/) is already slashdotted... Are we sure that their root DNS will be available all the time?
But the server does not ask for the whole aim.exe's hash; it asks for a randomly selected piece of it. You cannot generate a fake-aim.exe where every part of it also generates the same hash value as the actual aim.exe.
A bit offtopic, but just to answer your question: kuro5hin.com has a moderation system for articles, well, sort of.
You are welcome, but do I have to put a smiley after each funny comment? :-)

Of course, this should be 6 million (actually even less than this, maybe 5)...

You cannot, because Amazon itself does the switching:

It is correct... 2800 MB times 8 bit/byte divided by 6 Mbit/s is a bit more than 3600 secs, which is, 60 minutes...
