  1. Backup on High Tech Medical Clinics? · · Score: 1

    A whole backup system for cases like in California where power may sometimes go out. i dont want to be at the hospital and have the whole building loose electricity and my doctor not know how to treat me. I think it is still a good idea to keep paper until you guys have a ups backup system that can power the whole building for a day along with generators.

  2. Re:odd on Napster Introduces Subscription Charge · · Score: 1

    make that they're charging. Got into the heat of the post and lost my grammar.

  3. odd on Napster Introduces Subscription Charge · · Score: 2

    Its kind of odd that their charging, I mean we're putting our mp3s on their service and their charging us for it? We should be charging them, we're the ones keeping the service alive by going on it. So we have to charge now to download other people's mp3s, I think their should be something where if you put x amount of mp3s on the service you only have to pay x amount of dollars. Just my two cents.

  4. Comment on Dark City, San Francisco? · · Score: 5

  8. too User Friendly on Macs In Space II · · Score: 1

    Macs are too user friendly to be put into space, if we want to make the aliens elite and smarter we need to launch a x86 machine running linux with kernel 2.4 and let them tinker with that. That way when we finally get in touch with the aliens we will be able to communicate through a common os.

    "SEATTLE (AP) - A 9-foot-tall steel monolith mysteriously appeared in a city park, just in time for 2001." One after another with the mistakes, how bout we start reading the links before we accepted these articles cmdrtaco?

  10. The wiz on Free Cable Modem From The Shack · · Score: 1

    My dad just spent over 100 dollars at the wiz and got a free 3com cable modem. All he has to do now is pay for the service, no strings attached or anything. I wish they had that when I got my cable modem. I was one of the first in my area to get one and I have to rent mine.

  12. What.... on ESR: Microsoft Could Collapse In 6 Months (updated) · · Score: 1

    Im sorry there is no way Ms will be collapsing in 6 months. Not everyone in this world knows how to use linux well and efficentlly. Can you grandma or granpda use linux? no... can your 8 year old sister grep for her report on teletubbies? no... To say that MS will collapse in 6 months is obsurd. The demand for windows is still there and will be for quite a while. And now with MS releasing whistler in Q3 of 2001, i highly doubt they would collapse before releasing whistler and Visual studio.net

  24. macs on Space Object May Be Killer - In 2030 · · Score: 1
