  1. Re:So what's new/unique about this book? on Dancing Barefoot · · Score: 1
    What a content-free review.

  4. Doesn't seem that fast on Wireless at Firewire Speeds? · · Score: 1
    Initially 100mbps but aiming for 400mbps.

    802.11b supports speeds up to 11Mbps, and 802.11a supports up to 54Mbps. Rates of less than 1 bit per second don't sound like much of a "leapfrog over 802.11" to me.

    Just remember that 0 0 255 and 255 0 0 do not go together.

    If you've got 255 255 255 in there too, it seems pretty damn good to me.

  8. Re:As good of place as any on Prince of Pop-ups · · Score: 1

    Actually, it works in the preview pane in Outlook XP for me.

    I've used a fair bit of X10 stuff in my lifetime, and I'm quite convinced that they need to fire their current quality control people.

    Suck a llama dot? What, is this a type of acid?

    ... carefully organised into petri-dishes, hematically sealed in a selection of jars, and stored in a locker.

    Well, except for the jars bit, perhaps this means that the nerds in our schools will inherit the Earth?

    RAID 0 Multiple developers work on the same project but none of them has any idea what the other is doing at the same time. One developer failing (caffeine dehydration, severe electrostatic shock, sex, etc) will cause the entire project to screw up and become a mess.
