  1. Re:Grim Fandango on Maniac Mansion Creator Supports Indie Ports · · Score: 1

    It also works on WinXP, there's also a patch to version 1.01 or something in the Lucasarts site.

  2. Netbotz monitoring appliances on Server Room Temp Monitoring and Notifications? · · Score: 1

    We use Netbotz http://www.netbotz.com/ monitoring appliances for our server rooms, both the main datacenter and the alternate. We get SMTP mail, pagers, and cells...and the system has SNMP MIBs, so you can get MRTG graphs of the temperature, humidity and all enviromental variables.

    You can get models with cameras, motion detectors, etc.

  3. Re:"This Moonrock Sponsored by Poland Spring" on NASA Says Mars Once "Drenched With Water" · · Score: 1

    Lego sent a couple of Red Rover astronaut type guy on the rovers...you can check out their "adventures" in Mars here

  4. Re:The best firmware upgrade would be ... on Creating A Super-Router (For Free) · · Score: 1

    The Netgear firmware incorporates a feature to do such a thing, based on keywords in the URL.

  5. How about Enid Blyton's? The Famous Five? on The Big Kerplop · · Score: 1

    Or the Seven Secrets Club? I read those in Spanish when I was a kid...great reads, and it was great that there was a large collection of those to avoid spending time without "new" literature...

    Now, I wanted my kids to read those, but compared to Harry Potter...I don't think they have a chance, they seem to have little action compared to Potter.

  6. Re:The US doesn't have to on Taiwan Forces MS To Cut Prices, Unbundle Software · · Score: 1

    You have your pricing upside down...DVDs are MUCH cheaper in Region 1 (USA) than in Region 4 (Latin America). So, we buy regionless DVD players in order to play cheap DVDs and the occasional renting of a region 4 one.

  7. Unix book: The Unix Programming Enviroment on Getting Started In Linux · · Score: 1

    By Kernigham & Pike, covers using *nix from the command line, shell scripts, using a little bit of Lex & Yacc, and some source code management. IT IS dated, but it will give you a whole tour through the operating system from a "power user" perspective...forget all the wimpy GUI stuff. Highly Recommended, but too lazy to paste the Amazon link.

  8. Re:That doesn't sound very free.. on Free Internet Access Is Profitable In Egypt · · Score: 1

    In Guatemala, the "free" ISP (http://www.intelnet.net.gt) doesn't charge for Internet access, but charges GTQ 0.35 (about USD 0.05) per minute of line use...

  9. Will this work for the Mayans? on Simulating Societies · · Score: 1

    The Mayans of Central America also disappeared from the area, leaving their cities abandoned.

  10. Zork is available for free from Activision on Ultima Revived · · Score: 1

  11. This book is $1.99 in Amazon on Fire In the Valley: The Making of the Personal Computer · · Score: 1

    I just purchased this book (the CD-ROM-less edition) in Amazon.com Book Outlet for $1.99...somehow I felt it was the right price.
