Old bugs are so light anyway, that one with 130hp could get into the 14s. Shoehorn a bigger/more efficient motor in there, and you've got a potential sleeper.
Hope you get a good job. The STi is expected to go for $32,000 according to the latest Motor Trend. The Mitsu Lancer Evo is going for $30k though. Of course I'd spend the extra $2,000 to not get laughed at.
Addendum: Women like sportbikes until you try and take them on a dinner/dancing date, or until the 2nd/3rd date. Then they start asking "Do you have a regular car? I don't like picking bugs out of my AuqaNet."
I don't know if this is exactly the same thing, but my friend's apartment is basically a large network. When he took a job as a game programmer in San Diego and was searching for apts, one of them offered cable internet access as a drawing point. From what I understand, each apt is wired with a cat5 drop [not sure on number or placement] and the entire apt is on one large network [allowing for ease of sharing between neighbors I suppose, but security?]. I don't know about speeds or anything else really, but wired apartments do exist, at least in San Diego.
I think this is a good 'feature'. Moz is using the operating system's [hyperlink] cursor, instead of an arbitrary one of its own. This is a good thing for ppl who use skins/themes/whatever for their OS, that include cursors.
This is weird. I'm in a campus lab now [on a Mac no less - bleh], but last night, I was using HoTMail and MSN just fine using a recent nightly form the 0.9.5-trunk [on Win2K - my IE5.5 has taken a total crap anyway]. Not like I go to either site that often, but this is uncool, to say the least.
Just wait till I switch mom over to Linux, then we'll be able to wage a mediocre opposition.
I can't believe.museum got approved. It's worse than even the slang-tainted.biz, b/c it's so damn long. Why not.mus? And don't get me started on the uselessness of.aero.
Man, I noticed this last night, when I submitted a bug, I got the 100,001st one. I think mine is more useful than the 100,000st anyway - at least it's symmetrical.;^P [Not that they aren't all important.]

The system developed at MIT works by including mouse movement data automatically with embedded scripting. The information is analysed and stored on a server.
This collection technique is implemented using current technology and does not require any additional software on the user's browser.
The only way to get aournd it ouwld be to use Lynx.:^)
These aren't meant to be PCs. They are special purpose appliances. You buy into their specifications beforehand, it's not like they tricked you. Yes, Linux can be ported to a telephone or a refridgerator, but who cares? I prefer to just have it work as intended.
As for support, I've never had to call them, so it is sad to hear that they weren't as useful as you'd hoped.
You can't compare PalmOS to PocketPC. They serve different purposes. PocketPC is meant as a replacement for a laptop in the cases where a laptop would be an overkill. PalmOS is meant to be a PDA [meaning a contact list/organizer] only.
I don't know where people are getting their numbers from on this one. HP's Jornada has outsold Compaq by almost double in the PDA department. iPaqs may be a favorite among geeks, but we all know the world isn't like the Slashdot faithful. HP has acounted for 4% of all PDA sales this year, versus Q's 2.2%.

iPaqs cost too much to kick anybody's butt in the PDA market. I'll be upgrading my 548 to a 568 in the coming year - long live the Jornada!
Your numbers are off, sonny. iPaqs maybe favored by geeks, but HP Jordanas outsold both Compaq and Casio combined. HP accounted for just over 6% of all PDA sales, versus Q's ~3%.

B/c it makes the "sport" compact car ppl think they can compete w/Porsches, which we know isn't the case.

Actually, case modding == ricing up.
Neither provide for better performance.
Most exhibitions of each are unattractive.
Where as overclocking == hot rodding.

That's for a 32MB chip, not a 32MB DIMM. Meaning it would take 8 x 32MB chips for your 256MB DIMM.

Potentially, 30,000,000 ppl could be using Mozilla, since AOL has been testing it. And Everyone who uses Netscape 6/7 sees Mozilla.
So, 95% of the world might be close, but not 95% of the online world would be WAY off.

Did you try just using the buttons? I have an MS IntelliMouse Explorer [v2], and it works fine in Mozilla - always has.
[Alternately, if you can map your buttons to 'Alt+[left-arrow]' for Back and 'Alt+[right-arrow]' for Forward, you'll be set.]
