Perhaps they should concentrate on getting their other pages to work first. I've been trying all morning to get into Egroups, as well as several other Yahoo! sites, but they're all timing out.
I thought the mini-jail cell to keep the kids occupied was pretty cool. The rugrats looked pretty mortified that their parents left them locked up in PVC prison. That really boosted my day.
I don't know who I actually voted for. I just punched out holes until the shape looked like Juan Valdez.
The Victorinox (of Swiss Army Knife fame) CyberTool looks pretty cool. It's in the "less than a Playstation 2" category at $70 to $100, depending on how much the store gouges you.
Unless DNA technology has changed since I got my Master's last month, there is no way to "scan" a DNA sample on a surface. The idea is cool, but not yet functional. They'd have to pull ink off the sample, prep it with alcohol, isolate the DNA from the ink, run it through a PCR, and then sequence or match it with a primer. Not something you can do at a roadside vendor's stand.
According to what was said in the original article, the torpedoes cannot turn underwater. It's a straight shot to the target, or it's a miss. Therefore, it couldn't "home in on itself". The only other option would have been for the torpedoe to explode in the tube, as a previous reader posted.
Wouldn't it be best to not buy or browse anything that is advertised? I mean, if gnutella users hate the advertisements, how will the advertisers make money of us if we don't buy or go their sites?
What does it matter if it's 2D or 3D, as long as it is entertaining? Traditional anime isn't 3D, but a hell of a lot of people still like it. I thought the animation in Titan A.E. was great, although the characters were a bit over-done. And yes, the general story line could have used some work, too. Hey, at least it wasn't Battlefield Earth!

3C120? Is it a 3COM product?
My sentiments, exactly!

Sounds almost exactly like Arthur C. Clarke's "Songs of Distant Earth".
Yeah, and we all know how crappy their VCR instruction manuals are. Do we really want them writing the software and the content for the internet, too?
