The form factor is meant to match that of component audio devices. The HTPC case I bought is almost exactly the same size (width _and_ depth) as my AV receiver. This is nice because I can stack the receiver on top (venting an amp is critical).
Archiving is my #1 problem with our new digital (media) world. Digital archival is spotty at best. It's very rare to see numbers on the lifespan of recordable optical media. This should concern anyone who backs up to CD or DVD. I have year old discs that have failed and 10 year old discs that still function perfectly. Scary.
Online backup services may be the future but my upload bandwidth just isn't there yet.
The mash left behind from ethanol production from corn can be fed to cattle. Everyone wins. I suspect a similar win-win situation could be found in bioD farming.
100% DEET is not terribly effective as doesn't "adhere" to skin very well.
Additionally, are you sure the stuff you're using isn't comprised of a "100% DEET formula"? I've seen several whose active ingredients are soley DEET. Therefore the portion of the repellant which actually does the work is 100% DEET. Scam. Check the bottle and see if there's any alcohol present (if they list ingredients at all).
Similar MSI setup here.. but no significant problems. Due to problems with nForce chipset drivers (specifically the IDE and NIC drivers), I will be avoiding nForce based boards for awhile.

Pontification. Ruby is a joy to work with. Get your hands dirty before making worthless posts.
I don't know about you, but any data loss is a bad thing regardless of the amount lost. Anyone who doesn't back up critical data from their laptop on a regular basis can expect a disaster. They're portable and therefore much easier to drop, lose to theft, etc. Expect your laptop HD to fail at some point and plan accordingly.
I recommend an external firewire/usb2 drive hooked up to a docking station. Better yet, chain it to your docking station. I've heard horror stories of stolen laptops where the "backup drive" was in the same case of the laptop (oops).
I second this observation. China, Korea, Brazil being top sources. Might I suggest a.) limiting SSH to management bastion(s) and b.) using random passwords? After typing them in for the 50'th time, you shouldn't have to refer to your password vault:) .
Watching netflow data is definately the best way to watch for DDoS. IDS' aren't well geared for the task.
Check out Cisco's DDoS appliances (formerly Riverhead Guard/Detector) if you need a stout DDoS appliance. They go above and beyond basic netflow analysis (ala Arbor). To that point, the Guards + Arbor are a killer combo.
"Eek" is right. I avoid ISS like the plague. The only reason they have any reputation is that they were one of the first to market. RealSecure's closed sig set proned to FP. An IDS is only as good as its inspection engine and/or signatures.
I think snort with a "commercial" sig set would prove to be a far better value. Despite what others might say, managing snort in the enterprise isn't all that much work (majority is a bit of dev up front).
If you need a commercial product, give Cisco or Checkpoint a ring.
Is english your second language? He wrapped the word tool in _quotes_ suggesting that there's no userland / host based "tool" that can act in a fashion similar to an IPS device/appliance/wtfe such as Toplayer, etc.

Correct.. the only advantage (as of now) is the single cable. I think it's a step in the right direction. There's a lot of extra bandwidth available for future proofing. IIRC, HD video eats up 20% of the total bandwidth.
If I read another post regarding audio + video being on same cable as being a bad thing, my head esplode. It's digital damnit.. the data either gets there or it doesn't.
HDMI is backwards compatible with DVI 1.0 spec. You'll find that HDMI -> DVI cables are very reasonable. I have not seen anything that breaks HDMI into DVI + WTFE audio format. However, I don't cable my gear that way so I couldn't care less.
I don't think we'll see too many HDMI-only players. Doing so would prevent people from making incremental upgrades to their home theater systems. I for one do not want to replace my receiver.
This is clearly an effort to quickly shoehorn an x86 mobo into an Apple case. The presence of an AGP slot should tell you that this isn't anything _close_ to the consumer model we'll see next year.
Regarding using metadata for uninstalling.. You'd still need a mechanism for dependency checks. Might be able to use a table and reference counts to overcome this though.
The listings w/ ':' are alternate data streams (ADS). Those particular ones are commonly tied to image files. I suspect MS has leveraged ADS for thumbnailing or something.

Put your pirate hat on and research DVB-C and DVB-S cards.
There's a reason we're not piping unencrypted digital streams into our PCs.. It's called copyright.

Mulberry. Though I've been using Thunderbird and am satisfied with what IMAP features it offers. It's not nearly as broken as MAPI.

It uses a mock kernel
It's a real kernel. I swear it is! It's spelled mach (as in speed), not mock (as in krab).

It's AGFA, not AFGA. If I'm not mistaken, they haven't produced a scanner peripheral in years.
However, AGFA made a great product. We had an AGFA scanner w/ SCSI interface years ago that was by far one of the best I'd ever used.
Sounds like something remedied by using proper plugs to differentiate voltages.

May I ask what packages you used for your python framework? I've been toying w/ CherryPy for awhile now. Me likes.

Most rootkits intercept this call and filter accordingly. I would imagine the utility is looking for any reference to this system API call.
I'm curious as to what they're looking for in the system hive.
