  1. Star Traders on Classic TradeWars 2002 Sold · · Score: 1

    Didn't this game used to be called "Star Traders", or something like that (must have been around 1980 or so)? I remember playing it on the old Radio Shack TRS-80. Just pop in the cassette, type "cload" wait about 20 minutes, and then go in and hack the BASIC to give yourself more ships and weapons and stuff. It rocked!

  2. Re:Hotmail on OpenBSD, Security, and Theo de Raadt · · Score: 1

    Please correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't there a significant difference between OpenBSD and FreeBSD? OpenBSD is, I believe, the more secure one.

  3. NLMs on Novell Opens Source · · Score: 2

    I know many companies that are still using good ol' NetWare 3.12 for critical file and print services. There's a HUGE market for new NLM development...just think if Novell opened up those specs a bit more. NetWare would become really cool -- already NetWare 5.0 runs an FVWM-type Window Manager. Open source apps (like MySQL) on NetWare would give those companies a LOT more flexibility with minimal cost. Coupled with the already-powerful NDS and ZEN Works, NetWare could become very interesting.

    NetWare is more stable than NT, and easier to administer than the *NIXes. I for one would go with Linux, but for people who have to run NetWare for NLM compability, this is great news.
