    The blogger Interdictor, Michael Barnett, has a detailed blog of what they had to do and deal with to keep their datacenter operational despite being located in New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina. His blog was a very good read during the hurricane and its aftermath as it happened in August/September 2005.

  2. Re:Versus DX successor on OpenGL 2.0 Released · · Score: 1

    The Quake III game source is released, but not the source to the Quake III engine. The engine controls the networking, renderering, and sound in the game. The game controls what the user "sees and hears" when the person plays the game.

  3. Re:Comcast customer? on TV Execs' Attempts To Lure Gamers Not Always Best · · Score: 1

    They have to give you all of the broadcast channels (ABC,FOX,CBS,NBC, and independents) for a nominal charge because the FCC requires them to. If they don't, file a complaint through the FCC.

  5. Ease of Upload on Disposable Digital Cameras Have Arrived · · Score: 1

    I work at a Walgreens 1-hr photo dept (We don't have the test program). One of the biggest things in the department is speed. So it has to be really easy to upload the images off the camera. Another reason is that not all the employees in photo aren't as my photo manager puts it "Comperterized".
