I imagine if one didnt know where to go to change their password, the smart thing to do would be to click on Start | Help and Support and then search for change password.
As far as User Accounts in the control panel, I think it is only there if you are not on a domain. I see it on my machine, as did others. On my work computer (which is on a domain) it is not there.
I just installed some 802.11b equipment between my house and a neighbor that lives a few houses down, and across the street. The distance is probably around 250-300 feet or so (I have not stepped it out to see exactly how far). The equipment I used was a Linksys Wireless Access Point (WAP11) at each end, a Linksys Signal Booster (just to be safe, to make sure the signal was good and strong). The AP's are hooked up in a bridging mode, enabled wap, and disabled the SSID broadcast. I have a router in his house, that has its own IP off his broadband provider (which I will be paying for half of now)
The cost of the equipment was around $300 (but, luckily my work paid for this, so it was at no cost to me!) All and all, I feel the Linksys equipment is pretty good. The range (acording to the linksys) is 300 feet indoors and over 1100 feet outdoors.
All these law suits are starting to get out of hand. Why don't book publishers sue Xerox for creating a device that allows people to copy books? Why not sue every ISP, since the ISP's provide the means for people to get on the net to grab all that is copyrighted. How about sueing the manufacturers of Silly Putty, since you can use it to copy news paper articles (and comics). Ah, better yet, sue gun makers and automobile makers, since they provide a "tool" that kills people. We can't leave out the alcohol manufacturers.
The RIAA is really targeting the wrong people. They should go after people that are doing the copying and distribution.
Humm, Steve Mann has developed a Linux powered wrist watch back in 1998. It was published in the July 2000 Linux Journal as well.

if you go to http://auctions.msn.com you will find a lot of MS software for sale. Are they simply killing the auctions at eBay, in order to get people to use ms's auction site?
First I want to start off with a comment on the First Post message. Anyone who posts those stupid "first post" messages needs to get a life. It is very lame to see 5 messages (let alone 1) that all have something to do with being the First Post. Ok, on to what I was going to talk about. Anyone who thinks that only people that use MS Outlook will get infected with this (and other) virus [trojan, or whatever you want to call it] needs to realize that ANY MS Windows based email client that allows the user to either open an attachment directly, or save the attachment so the user can run it, are able to get infected with these types of virus's. MS Outlook is only needed to spread itself the people in the infected persons Outlook address book.
We have two of these at work, we used them as trials on our production floor. The users at first said they liked them. Now they say they have to press really hard on the keys to type, which is not true. You can lightly touch the keys and they work, but it feels funny, since its rubber. Your mind makes you think you have to press really hard (like you were going to squish the key down) which you dont need to do. It almost seems like if you push really hard, the keys don't respond as well. Personally, they keyboards are great for production environments. but I would not use one at home.
The only real fraud is done by those people that purchase(d) the devices and then don't follow through with the ISP contract. The only way that you could sue for fraud is if the product did not work as advertised by them. It does not matter if they decide to modify the motherboard, bios, or rivited the case together. They can do what they want with the design changes as long as it still functions as advertised!

Would have been funny if you said "VesaCards are accepted more places than ExpressCards" ...
Couldn't the same thing be said about virus/worm attacks on Windows??
I am seeing a lot of double standards here.

So, if my house gets broken into, and my TV gets stolen, the police should take everything else I own, to prevent future thefts?

I think it would be funny if Microsoft said "fine, we'll just close shop, drop all support, etc" ... the world would be in bad shape then!
I am waiting for this to be released so we can hear how people hacked Tight and loaded Linux on it...
