When I was a guitar tech, I would just buy the rack hardware and build my own cabinet. You can buy the rails (the parts that the rack mount gear screws into) at just about any music supplier. Next, cut your sides and such with a table saw and assemble. I used to make some items that looked more like furniture such as a rack hidden in an end table or coffee table.
If it's for home use, make it a bit more furniture like. Your woman of the house will complain much less.

You know what? He could still buy out the original copyright owner for a GPL product and close future versions. He can still be a shark...

This was featured in Wired magazine over a year ago. I don't remember which issue, but the article was extensive (8+ pages) and featured lots of photos.
I have a fairly popular local non-profit as a client and I can testify that the funds game isnever ending and tiresome. Their director spends most of his time finding cash instead of running the place.
They have 10 computers. 4 very old ones and 6 brand spankin new ones bought with donations from local politicians and such.
Very touch and go for them.
Ok you two, it's time to tune up those machines. Remember that NT was originally shipped to scale up to a couple of Pentium Pro 233 CPUs and 512 MB of RAM was the limit (for workstation at least). Without some tweaking, NT doesn't know to use all of the extra CPU and RAM you've thrown at it. Go to http://www.jsiinc.com/reghack.htm and look up the NT/2000 performance hacks (check out # 301 at least).
This report would be more useful if it included a prior art column. Examples may be easy to think of for the average geek, but it's not us that need convincing.
Both the EPO and it's American cousin are administrated by Normal People(tm). We geeks often forget to make things plain for them.
I have lived in Sacramento all of my life. It used to be a fairly small city with a couple of military bases and lots of politicians. These days, Sac is growing faster than I can keep track of. We've seen a flood of people and companies from the valley within the last 5 years or so. A tide that seems to be growing.
Rent is getting stteper every year, but a 3 bedroom house can be had for aroung $800 to $1200 a month (that's right - I said HOUSE).
Though I would hate to see it turn into San Jose, I could use a few more experienced techies to socialize with. The best 3-d guy I've met in town just texture mapped some spheres for a space program and I just took a client that has a laughable network put together by a local consulting firm.
Everybody here learns their skills working customer service, not operations. If you have good skills, this market is RIPE!
Sorry to inform you, but CD quality is actually lower than vinyl. This is because digital recordings do not have a complete analog waveform. They have a waveform that is sampled at regular time intervals (the sample rate). Vinyl is still the most accurate audio recording known to man.
CDs are kind of like feeling a breast through one of those PinArt things. After the pins are on the breast they may form a breast, but you still can't see the wrinkles in the nipple:)
Well, If I were them and no-one tried to crack my encryption, I would probably resort to that good old green supplimental morality known as a cash prize.
Just imagine entering a contest knowing that your competitors won't enter because of their beliefs. What an edge!
BTW: No I didn't enter. I belong to the moralistic camp.
It seems that when a corporate entity wants to take code down, they make you out to be a (somewhat) lone cracker (they think hacker is the same thing). I don't think we can combat this effectively without banding together. It's far easier to prossecute 3 or 4 people than it is to prossecute an entire community.
Are these "divide and conquer" tactics working? Well, they are altering YOUR methods already. If they didn't work, you wouldn't have to ask your question.
Perhaps this is a question you should take up with the EFF or some other such body. They could use as much help as you can give.
There's less than 100 comments for this post, but it's something we should all be taking part in. I don't want to be bitching about this law on/. in a year or two.
I hope we've learned a lesson from the DMCA. I'm not going to even start with the other legislation us geeks have ignored.
During the middle ages, it was very important to transcribe other peoples books/papers to preserve them and/or aviod them being burned. How about making more hardcopies of the DeCSS source? Or does the MPAA have powers over pen and paper trafficking too with their court ruling?
This is why I really don't like copyright laws in the first place. They stifle the growth of knowledge.
One of the most attractive things about a pure electric car is the number of moving parts. A company here in Sacramento makes a model my ex-wife drove with fewer than 10 moving parts. It was of the small "cockpit" commuter variety.
Repairs on it took 10-45 minutes tops. I once watched a mechanic strip it to a bare frame in just over an hour.
