In most cases whether it took a week to write would be a non-issue. You'd likely be doing a server to server backup on a daily basis and be writing to tape once a week anyway (ie, continuously).
And the city I live in (Calgary, AB) has just decided to not only keep the red light cameras going, but also make them speed on green cameras, meaning if you speed through the intersection with a camera you're getting a ticket.
And the cops are also going to send out careless driving tickets instead of a fail to stop plus a speeding ticket to the registered owners of vehicles that run the red light while speeding, which they don't have the authority to do, and the tickets probably won't stand up in court. Almost makes me want to speed through red lights. Almost.
Maybe I was ahead of the curve

... but in 1996 I was in 11th or 12th Grade... Sure we used BBS's still, but I had graphical internet access well before 96. I think I was first on IRC around 93-94, hacked my first free internet account around 95. I distinctly remember surfing to playboy.com from my school's library in 95... We were playing C&C across the internet in groups of about 5 or 6 by 1996...
I don't know what the OP was doing in 1996, but it sure sounds boring compared to what I was doing at the time.
I work in one of these places - it kind of sucks. I've seen a huge increase in malware infections in the past week - far more than 0.2% and they've all been to seemingly legit websites. If our dumb intranet apps would work in FF I wouldn't see this!

All my cables are obsolete again!
Also that he doesn't let his IT department near his laptop. Thats a level of distrust that, as an IT guy, drives me absolutely bonkers.
Well - I'm 29 - so C64 was something I played games on when I was 8 or so. I didn't start tinkering with programming until a few years after that.
Seriously? What? What can you do from a C64 shell on an iPhone?
