I've had the service for about a month now in Atlanta and would definitely recommend it. The ping times and access times are about the same as mentioned above, and the install was completed the day after I placed the order. (Yes, one day. YMMV, as I was one of the "early adopters," and lag times might increase as their number of installations ramps up.)
By the way, Broadlink's website seems to indicate that they also provide service in CA, so if you're in the bay area or LA, I'd check directly through broadlink. Also, I don't believe there's a need to go through Earthlink for this service. (I'm not...) They set me up with a routed 1-port NAT connection which seems to be working just fine.
No, factoring the large psuedo-primes is not NP-complete, but it is NP, meaning that if there exists a polynomial time algorithm for any NP-complete problem, then that algorithm can be reduced, in polynomial time, to factoring large psuedo-primes.
Doesn't anyone remeber theory of computing anymore?
Therefore, it is unlikely that solving the translation from an NP problem into a P algorithm will change the way we think of computational complexities in a revolutionary way.
No, but translating an NP-complete problem into a P problem would by definition provide a P solution for all problems in NP. That's what NP-complete means.
A digital rights management operating system protects rights-managed data, such as downloaded content, from access by untrusted programs while the data is loaded into memory or on a page file as a result of the execution of a trusted application that accesses the memory. To protect the rights-managed data resident in memory, the digital rights management operating system
refuses to load an untrusted program into memory while the trusted application is executing or removes the data from memory before loading the untrusted program.
So if you want to run an "untrusted" application (read: unsigned by MS), you can't view any protected information at the same time. How long before people get IE streaming protected data to their desktop 24/7, effectively locking out all unsigned applications from running under XP? Wouldn't this effectively lock out any non-MS-sanctioned development under XP?
At a site mentioned in the Wired article, I found the link to Trinity Host website. Looks like another incarnation of PageCreators.
They even suggest you "contact" them (with a non-working link) for questions about PageCreators.

Look at www.broadlink.com. It looks like it's IN the bay area.
