Windows is certified at EAL4, and that doesn't provide much assurance of security. The article says RH and Oracle are working on EAL2, which is much weaker.
(Why does Common Criteria start to remind me of Dilbert strips about ISO 9000?)
You gotta love this anticompetitive clause from their noncommercial license, though:
"Requires that you use the Gracenote Database and Gracenote ENC Client in your Licensed Application as your sole source of data from the Internet that is based on reading TOC data of any CD, ECD or CD-ROM media with your Licensed Application"
AOL now owns RoadRunner, but they probably still don't support P2P because they make much more money from people who use their $50/month cable modems for nothing but Web browsing and email.
I'm pretty sure Apple has offered this option since the beginning, but the consensus seems to be that the Xserve is too loud to make a good workstation.
I remember reading that doing video with SIP isn't easy, so videophones are sticking with H.323 while VoIP phones are using SIP. I don't know if that's still true; it would be nice to have a single protocol.
Another disadvantage of being the first SIP videophone would be lack of interop; you couldn't call all those NetMeeting, Polycom, Pictel, etc. videophones.
802.16 can run in either licensed or unlicensed spectrum. And there is plenty of spectrum: 802.11a has 8(?) non-overlapping channels which can each carry 54Mbps. IIRC in the ISM and U-NII bands the power limit is much higher than 15mW -- more like 300mW.
For VoIP that lets you receive calls, check out Vonage or Packet8. Both of these are based on appliances, not computers, but at least they don't require you to run Windows. I'm not paid to pimp these services and I haven't tried them, so I don't know if they suck or not.

Don't use a tunnel; check out 6to4. A little Googling should turn up instructions for your OS.
Last I heard, Slashdot is behind a load balancer and a firewall; do those support IPv6?
Tunnel brokers are obsolete; 6to4 is simpler and more efficient.
The whole point of MusicBrainz is that the data is open; some of it is public domain and some of it uses a Creative Commons license.
You can download the entire database from their site.

The wireless isn't in the CPU; it's just a Mini PCI card like everyone already uese.

No, they don't.

If IPv6 provides a more efficient means for "routers" to comprehend that graph, why can't that solution also apply to IPv4?
It could, but it would force everyone to be renumbered, which they will not accept.
Those manual tunnel brokers are obsolete; 6to4 is simpler and more efficient.
Gee, they sure are making progress on the memory model; they were supposed to be done in 2002 and they don't even have a draft yet.
The release notes suggest that GNOME won't get a usable file selector dialog for a year; is that really correct?

Yes.
I heard they rejected $75M from Apple.
What does VLIW have to do with the width of the general-purpose registers?
The new Pentium 4 will have 6.4GB/s of memory bandwidth and the Athlon 64 will have 2.7GB/s; looks like a pretty big difference.
My point was that the total throughput available in the U-NII band is around 8*54 = 432Mbps per sector. That sure seems like a lot to me.
802.16 can run in either licensed or unlicensed spectrum. And there is plenty of spectrum: 802.11a has 8(?) non-overlapping channels which can each carry 54Mbps. IIRC in the ISM and U-NII bands the power limit is much higher than 15mW -- more like 300mW.
I remember reading that it supports speeds up to 98Mbps full duplex, but that probably depends on what band it's operating in.
I don't know why they don't support G.711 (aka uncompressed); that can't be patented and people with broadband should have no trouble handling 64kbps.
