why not get hired by a US company thats staffing people overseas? I've heard of plenty of people getting paid by US companies and working in France and Belgium and the like.
I was going to comment on that, seeing as I was the one who did the recovery.
There were quite a few reasons why m-net was down so long. The main one being that we're all volunteers. M-Net was recovered entirely in my free time, which I didn't have much of.
M-Net's hardware was replaced simply because it was old. There was hardly any data lost during this time.
I would have brought it right back up, but I really didn't have any idea what was used to do the break in, and modifications were made to the login procedure that I wasn't able to fix, or even track down. So, since we needed it anyway, we upgraded the OS and the hardware.
M-Net isn't an ISP, we're a conferencing system.
M-Net is the first public-access unix machine, or
so some people claim. We give out free firewalled shell accounts with our primary focus being on our YAPP bbs conferencing system.
If newuser was up, which it's not, due to some password locking issues with FreeBSD's pw command, you could create an account and be dropped into a shell. I'd encourage you all to drop by once we have it back up, and if you want to support a public access unix machine, use paypal to give us money at treasure@arbornet.org. Also, you can send us a check here:

See, this is all well and good, and as for the earlier argument about these people wasting thier time, I think any project thats interesting and complicated is never a waste of time, because you're most likely learning something that you can apply elsewhere. But, what I *REALLY* want to know is how well does the camera function as a controller (placement of buttons, etc) and how playable it really is.

This looks awesome.

I thought netware was it's own OS already.
The world isn't america. Microsoft doesn't rule the world, as much as it would like to think it does.

I'm trying to find the machine that they're replacing it with on apple.com, but a search for Pismo on apple.com returns nothing.
I think this is why I choose to remain working in education
