Why would I want my TV, toaster, or fridge on the Internet?
Perhaps the next thing that needs to be done is to install a firewall in each house. That way each house can have 10.x.x.x for their IP numbers. 16 million should be enough IP's for any house:)
I feel for the people that sent in stories...it was my high school as well, and that was 10 years ago. Although I was on one sport team, I was still a joke because it was the fencing team, and not something "normal" like basketball or wrestling. I played Dungeons & Dragons, I knew a lot about computers, I read science-fiction and fantasy (for that matter, I read recreationally). I got good grades. In addition to all this, I was tall and not exactly the standard-looking hollywood high school student.
Well, 10 years later, I am married to a beautiful wife, have a sweet 9 week old daughter, and tons of respect from my co-workers and peers in my field because I still know what I am doing.
It really makes me wonder what the jocks and pretty-boys are doing now. My guess is they've moved from one make-believe world (high school) to another (marketting), still living in the past when they were cool in their own minds.
After reading the stories above about kids getting sent home for this and that, I can officially be "outraged as a parent" now. If my daughter ever comes home for something as stupid as above, I will be in the principal or superintendant office that afternoon.
To the "abnormal" high schoolers, take heart - you are the ones living a normal life, not a the life of someone cut from a mold. Hang in - it gets better when your brain matters more than what clothes you wear.
This would be fun - it may shut some people up

this coming from an anonymous coward. Face it - you don't know jack.
Never even used visual Basic, I use visual c++

Perhaps all the idiots who cling so tightly to Open Source saying that they won't use windows because "without the source they can't fix something that goes wrong" will finally be able to shut up with that stupid argument.
All the people that go on and on like that - as if they could even have a clue where to go to fix it. Damn zealots.
All you need do is remove all the external plastic and paint them...piece of cake. I painted my whole case black, took the faceplate and drawcover off the cd drive, painted the plate black and drawcover silver...looked cool.
Then I upgraded the CD drive, and was too lazy to paint them as well.
I have a case that is 4 inches thick and a space that is 3 inches wide. The power supply will fit in...are there any problems with just screwing the motherboard to a piece of wood and secure it in there? Cut out the whole case alltogether.
It'd be nice to see a page that relates various other bands to Tolkien (without all the stretching of coincidences (Hey...they mentioned Elves...it must be Tolkien related).
Gee...Blind Guardian's "Nightfall in Middle Earth" would take a few pages itself:)
As soon as I am able to say in the smb.conf that this share is accessable by xxx NT group, and those members can get in, all the crap I've had to stick on NT servers for ease of management goes bye-bye.
Great work guys.

I know I could cut down on clutter if I could fine a case that could house two (or more) motherboards in it, all the drives, etc...
I guess in something like that, heat would become a problem a little quicker, but it'd still be cool.
Something along the lines of an old file cabinet gutted and rebuilt.

Besides, unless you're drinking horse piss (aka American beer), it's better warm anyway.

MS Kid v 1.0
there are fewer apps.
(lets try this again). Does that mean you can't run Microsoft Office, Microsoft Explorer, Microsoft Bob?
Cause I've found plenty of things to run on Unix.
there are fewer apps.
Of course, some people will use Linux, so RMS will be moping around that people should call it the GNU/Internet Book

I decided to mount the mobo (486/66) to plexiglass using the little riser screws. It is thinner, looks cooler, and doesn't give splinters.
Thanks for all the advice.

And wow, the cases in this article are so ugly
I'm on 95 with ie4.01 and I have just a white space where I should have the poll, freshmeat, olderstuff, and jenni :)
For some reason having the ATLANTA Linux showcase in the New England area doesn't make much sense!

Put one on yourself, that's how the ALS started...it just keeps snowballing.
Because when you then need to throw something into Premiere, it's a lot easier not to reboot.
Can the Flash outrun Superman?
Blew chunks.
At least the ads for HotBot were hilarious.
Have you not heard Earthling?
It's about half-techno.
Sorry...
1) My only bought system came from gateway with Win 3.1, before Linux was out.
2) I need 95 - otherwise I can't play some games, do some work stuff, etc...

When I see Todd thursday, I'll slap him for saying that.
But it would be great if Gnome does mimic OLE...it would make for great interoperability.
