  1. Re:Perfect for me! on Hip-e All-In-One PC · · Score: 1

    Well, now that one teenager wants one I must agree! This thing is Awsome to the Extreem!!!

  2. Re:No MacOS X? on Geek Olympics Code for Gold · · Score: 1

    If it is the system gui lock (the mouse still moves, but nothing works) thing your thinking of then remove /.hotfiles.btree every couple of days (or every time you reboot, if you actually turn off your Mac. Its a klugy work around, but better than the lock.

  3. Re:The winner is foo@bar.com on Where Do Dummy Email Addresses Go? · · Score: 1

    I use my@ass.com not even close with only 933 hits.

  4. Re:Safari on Mozilla Project Officially Releases Firefox 0.9 · · Score: 2, Informative

    Just map you middle moust button to CMD+Click with whatever driver your mouse software uses. Safari seems to not need it mapped (but still works if it is). I needed to set it explicitly for FF.

    Ciao

  5. Re:What's so special?? on Unofficial Windows98SE Patch · · Score: 5, Insightful

    That he did it and no one else bothered?

    Seriously, if it does prove safe its a nice shortcut for admins forced to work with Win98.

  6. CAnet3 on Intenet2 Backbone Upgrades · · Score: 3, Informative

    Has sweet bandwidth allright, but you cant use it for anything out side the research network. So all those napster type progies wont get a bit of it, and its also not that usefull for general surfing. however, my friend sucked down a redhat iso in 12 minutes From The NRC's ftp to his machine in @ Carleton U.

  7. Its a shame there are so many problems on Analysis of Passport Flaws · · Score: 1

    Well, I agree with the artical that there are an abundance of problems with passport, its truly unfortunate that it could not be done better/independently. The idea of Passport seems like a great one that could indeed help users, and make them more secure. As the artical states most users use bad, and repeating passwords. Something like this would probably make those people more secure in the the long run. as the acutal vendor would not have access to the persons password. Unfortunatly it is deeply flawed. Oh well maby some "open" project will emerge, and provide a better verson of passport.

  8. They have done this sort of thing before. on Microsoft Buys into Corel · · Score: 1

    MS helped bail out the mac a while ago, and nothing too destructive came of that. This does not mean anything for Corel, really. They don't have to listen to a non-voting member.

  9. I think it's important to note.... on Sega Shutting Down Hundreds Of ROM Sites · · Score: 1

    Sega is, in Japan - at least, selling (renting) old Master System games. They may possibly see this as a threat to their profits from those games.

  10. Re:Is the DC console fast enough? on Sega Supports Emulation · · Score: 1

    The PS2 does not have binary compartibility. The IO in the PS2 is in fact handled by the old PS chip. All the PS2 uses to play PS games is run it through that -- circumventing the Emotioan engine, VU's, CPU and the like.
