Have you even looked at the LEAF distributions. While being very small, they are extremely effective at doing exactly what you are talking about. While it might not be as pretty as some would like, its still quite good. File sharing, printer sharing, etc, all based off a floppy boot,including routing, QoS, ipsec, etc.. check it out at

I'm looking at running a few LEDs, either same color to inidicate a single reason (red = I'm on the phone) or possibly multi color to indicate various reasons. I was looking at parallel only because of the recommendations. In just a hardware manner, I could use a toggle switch and a wire, but I want to run a daemon that looks wether the I'm on the phone or not (interface with other software) and then light up LEDs accordingly.
People are not paying for content. You are paying for a link to do whatever you want with, according to your TOS. I have RR at home, and I don't think I've ever spent more than about 5 minutes at the regional RR website. I pay for bandwidth not content. I get my content from various providers.
Its similar to having a car. Sure, you can be entertained by driving, and sitting in your car and listening to the radio, playing with the reclining seats, etc, but its where the car takes you that is important. Hence, you buy a nicer car to get you there in a faster, more comfortable manor. Same thing applies to dial-up versus broadband.
Personally, I think that 'bursting' pricing is bullshit. If I saturate my line, then I saturate my line. I pay a flat rate and I get as much accross it as I can. If I want more lines, I pay for more lines. But when you buy it in bursts your setting yourself up for loss. Same thing applies when you pay for 'transfer totals'. If you limit my usage, then ultimately I'm just not going to use it, and hence I/we become more segregated from the 'net. It would be better to pay for larger dedicated lines that I could use to my hearts content.
which PDF did you download? I got 2 of the 4 (I think) could you send me the one you have?

you are incorrect about the ending. Indeed the mecha or alien (i was pretty sure it was alien) did create life out of the dna for the period of one day.. it was a lack of completeness that made her last for only one day, cloning apparently still hasn't been solved. at anyrate, the mecha/alien did not destroy cyberboy, he distinctly states that he goes to sleep, and ultimately turns himself off.
if it were the otherway around, surely they would have destroyed teddy as well.
i felt more compassion and remorse for teddy than I did for the boy, he atleast got to live his dream, teddy on the other hand was forced to live in solitude. awake for eternity. i think teddy had more emotion that the AI Boy ever did.. much better character

Any half ass jewler (even retail) will take back the diamond that you bought from them. In addition, if you buy a certified diamond from either a third party or a retail/wholesale jewler, the only thing that you are going to be stuck with is the band. I bought my fiance a 1ct diamond, on a platinum band. I thought it was great. Certified and all. I later found out that the jewler used yellow gold to solder the band after sizing it. This makes the whole fucking ring look terrible. MAKE SURE THAT THEY USE THE RIGHT METAL FOR SOLDERING. This will make even the most perfect diamond look like crap as it reflects the yellow through the diamond.
BTW - congrats. My fiance and I are getting married on April 26th, 2003.
the problem was that they didn't tell us untill a few months after they announced the first dvd set. when alot of us had already pre-ordered the set. that really pissed me off, because there was no refund available. now i will be stuck buying the second copy because I want the additional footage. not only that, but if I recall correctly, the first time I read the features of the set that I bought, it mentioned deleted scenes.
personally, I'm quite pissed at the whole situation, i really enjoyed the movie, but now i'll be forced to spend more than I originally would have... hands down on customer satisfaction...
There are quite a few of us that are still using the older OS'. First off, there is no major reason that I could find to run out and upgrade to Win2k/WinXP, it's pointless. The only improvement I found (practical use) is the need for USB support. Aside from that, I have my entire office running on WinNT4. Now granted I am switching (in progress) to a Linux based office, using Linux Terminal Server http://ltsp.sourforge.net . There is something to be said about using something that just simply works. Take for example older model cars, using a carb instead of an electronic fuel and ignition system. It worked, and when it didn't it was only one thing or the other that could be wrong. With the new improved electronic systems, there are a number of points where the system is able to fail. The sames goes with the operating systems. (MS)DOS worked, and worked well. I know companies even today that are still running MSDOS 6.22 for their entire operations. Hows that for stability?!

I disagree, but only in part. Looking at dedicated lines (dsl, cable, t(x) ) The few rare times that I have needed real customer service, its been readily available. The only true problems we have run into have been on larger scale. Such as cables being broken.

That's what the 4 at the beginning of the name means. I.E. Interstate 65 goes through Indianapolis, I 465 goes around Indianapolis in a big circle. They don't always have to form a complete loop, but the 4 means 'by-pass'.
actually thats not entirely accurate. The 4 is irrelevant. An 'even' number designates that it goes around (or bypasses) the city, where as an odd number (ie I-110) is still an interstate, however it comes to a dead end.

The top-selling video game in 2001, according to research firm NPD Group, was "Grand Theft Auto 3," in which players steal and wreck cars, commit contract killings and carry out other crimes. It has been banned in Australia.

I am working in a similar situation, where I want to allow a large amount of users access to the thin clients, using web browsing apps, and office applications, but my question is, at what point does load managing become an issue of which machine the user is working from. IE, at 100 users should you get two servers, or what have you.. at what point does a single server not become efficient/suffecient?
I agree. Especially since the end user doesn't really care what OS they are using. If a group of people are using GNOME on (example) a Windows based platform (I know, its not a reality), it would be transparent to move them to a linux, or other *Nix base when the interface is the same
on another note, the trolls today are apparently wide awake with a dick in their mouth.
Someone had made mention of it before, that when you download the packaged version of RedHat and burn it to a cd, then in fact you are still getting a RedHat copy of Linux. However, I have seen other distrobutions (not mentioned) that will use parts of Redhat for their own distro. This is not a Redhat product. Although (for example) the install might look the same, and the basics of the directory structure are the same, the packages contained, defaults, services turned on, etc... might be totally different, in effect this makes a new distrobution.

the story not too long ago. About the sheep (goat?) or whatever that was cloned, and in just half over a few years, it had already showed signs of equal age to the original subject. Those of you siting examples of using spare body parts need to remember that we are only what we put into ourselves. I personally wouldn't want to have someone else's parts inside me. I think that the technology by itself is a great thing to have, but instead of cloning, why not go into the direction of regeneration, rejuvination so that we would be healing ourselves.
Secondly, someone had mentioned that they didn't see any real threats to having human clones walking around this great planet. The problem is simple. Inbreeding doesn't work, ask any redneck. It's simple really. The world has a finite number of people, multiplying. And eventually everyone will have reproduced with everyone else. We are constantly shortening the distance between clean/new lines of blood.
For example, you have two families. Each family has one boy and one girl. Each boy marries the other girl. They have children. They children can't possibly reproduce due to the problem of genetic inbreeding. Think of this on a larger scale. If we start filling up the planet with duplicates, think of how close we become to having just two families left.
This is the frightening part, we will ultimately breed ourselves out of life.
I don't see why the US government wouldn't try to claim Linux. After all didn't just recently we all learn that Al Gore was the father of the Internet.
In all seriousness though. One of the things that the export laws apply to is things that are sold. Since Linux is given away freely, I'm sure that the export laws can't apply to Linux.
The simple fact is that emulators, and the concept of emulators have been around far longer, and will stay here far longer than Nintendo will ever dream to be. The plain truth is that an emulator is designed so that software can be run on various platforms, much the same way different ports of software come about.
If this was such a BIG deal, Macro$haft would have sued the developers of dosemu long ago, for the development of a MS based dos emulator.
Nintendo, think about how ludicrous your accusations are. Your argument is the same as suing Smith & Wessen for selling guns that kill. How can you sue someone for making the information available, it is up to the end user to abide by the license agreements.

From my understanding, this is more of offering redundancy and availability than it is offering performance.
