A Squeeze Box is exactly what you're looking for. I got one a few months ago. It is a god send. Both wired and wireless versions are available. It's a little more expensive than the major brand counterparts that you mentioned, but it is:
I saw the show this past weekend. It is line-for-line a stage version of Holy Grail. It has the Knights who say Ni, the Black Night, Bring Out Yer Dead, Brave Brave Sir Robin, Tim the Enchanter, the Rabbit guarding the cave, outrageous accent Frenchman, and at least 10 other sketches right from the movie. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the show immensely, but don't go expecting loads of original content. Off the top of my head, I count 2 new songs and only 1 new scene that were not included in the movie.
This is exactly what is meant by anti-competitive behavior. Bundling a browser is bad enough, but to then eliminate other browsers is way over the line. I'd love to see a huge fine levied against MS for this one. Unfortunately, even if that does happen, it wouldn't be for years.
The browser war is at a critical stage right now. This kind of thing could be devastating to the adoption of alternative browsers.
If your uplink is limited to some variety of broadband/T1, then the 11Mbps provided by 802.11b will saturate your uplink 10x over. The only reason you'd need 802.11a/g is if you have some uber uplink, or you'd be doing a lot of in-coffee-shop file transfers.
I've user Big Brother for many years and it is very configurable. You can monitor anything from cpu usage, memory, disk space, available services, to random things like the weather and server room temp.
All that being said, I found it to be flukey in its behavoir. Sometimes it would report that everything was not responding and it had to be punted before I would get the all clear. The other negative is the license. The program consists of nothing more than shell/perl scripts so it's obviously open, but it has some strange clauses about Non-Commercial use.
Overall, I'd recommend trying something else, because BB was unreliable in my use, but YMMV.
I just watched the trailer (thank god for slashdot articles "from the future") and noticed that not a single one of the charcters blinked in the entire preview. Whether it's blinking, or speed of limb movement, or A/V sync, minute body motions are going to continue to seperate live action from CGI for a few more years to come. Photorealism exists only in still frames for the time being.
Check out Bessie the Annhilator. It does a great job at grading even if it doesn't do the rest of what you asked. It's written in php and is very extensible.
Actually, the kitchen is the perfect place to clean a keyboard. It sounds crazy, but you can put a keyboard through the dishwasher. Put it in by itself, with just a tiny bit of regular dish washing liquid. When it comes out, give it a couple of days to make sure it's completely dry. I have personally done this before and it works great.
Still, I agree that a touchscreen type device is the way to go on this one.
As a proud Yamaha Disklavier owner (the MPX1), I can tell you that the action is unnoticably different from a normal piano. All the pickups are laser based, and not suction. As for midi not being sufficient? Bah! It captures the velocity of my playing to a tee. Even the pedal has 127 different levels of "on". When I record something I play, and replay it, there is absolutely 0 perceptable difference in the resulting sound.
Personally, I've never understood the holy war of distros. Granted, I'm a relative newbie, but still... whenever I install a new distro, the first thing I do is remove about a quarter of the packages and recompile stuff from new source, including (especially) the kernel. Once I do this, I hardly consider it the original distro anymore, it's now just a conglomeration of packages.
All that being said, I really want to try gentoo linux soon as it seems to be most inline with my philosophy.
Who said the contraction happened quickly? My guess is that the contraction happens over a few milliseconds and not instantly. This would kinda default any memory applications. Although, here's to hoping:)
Slashdot Mirror
There is very little here besides:
man nslookup
man whois
Try those commands for a more complete understanding of what's going on.

I love it!
New material? No way...

Apparently he also choose to run his web server off his ipod too.
This is not the right answer. Whether it's:
cutting off your nose to spite your face or
shooting yourself in the foot
you can choose your own cliche.
So, let me get this straight.
A Toronoto newspaper says that Steve Balmer says that Munich is having trouble switching to Linux. Boy, that's great investigative journalism there.
Actually, UPenn has already built ENIAC on a chip

Everything is in perfect sweedish when you use the Sweedish Chef version of Google :)
The linked article doesn't have a pic of the impact they're talking about.
Here's one I found over at space.com.

> Tests simulating inside attacks indicate that the new software would be up to 94 per cent reliable once implemented.
That's perfect security? 94%? Heck, I balk if my uptime isn't at least 99.999%. And security must be better than uptime.
I don't think these prices qualify as "ready for prime time". From the Actuality-Systems website:
# Perspecta display (hardware): US$45,000
# Perspecta "O/S" and SRK (spatial rendering kernel): US$3,000
# Developer's Program and Software Development Kit: US$2,000/month
# Installation: US$2,100
# Hardware Support Programs: Basic (US$3,000/yr) and Premium ($7,000/yr)
# Software Support Programs: Basic (US$3,000/yr) and Premium ($7,000/yr)
# Software Maintenance: 30%/yr of software
The UI kinda sucks. But if you want one that doesn't a very similar project is Celestia.
Oh great... now the script kiddies will be able to remotely hack all the way down to my bios!
Brings new meaning to the term owned.

In what scene in Menace was Yoda CG?
Does anybody know where I can find a list of digital theatres presenting the film?

So what does Valhalla mean? I found a lot of google hits, but what is RedHat specifically referring to?
