Kinda like how when Windows 9X came out, so did SOFTWARENAME 9X.
"Uh yeah, we thought that whole numerical thing that lets you know what version you have was to confusing. So now you can just look at the year, and know how old it is....Oh wait. Now it's SOFTWARE XP because the whole 4 digit year thing. Nothing to do with Microsoft at all. No sir. In fact, XP stands for Cairo...oh wait.."
I thought that the defendant got have a trial heard by his/her/it's peers. Felten is the plaintif(sp?) in this case. So SDMI/RIAA would have their peers if it was brought to trial.

A realatively inexpensive device (solar maybe) for the kids' shirt. You lose your kid? Go to the security desk, and they can find what AP your kid is closest too.
Also could be used to collect better metrics on which Guests prefer which attractions. Like Slot Club cards at casinos. Maybe you can get perks if you blow a lot of money in the gift stores (Glass Castle anyone?)
And by having the usage counter centrally located at the Cable provider (transmission to your ip's from their box?) there is no obsoleted materials for those of us who saved money in the long run buying our own cable modems/routers.
NAT is good for what it does. I don't recommend forcing another protocol - that will be circumvented anyway.
I would prefer a bandwith/$$ model if they are going to start nickel and diming us. Kinda like cell phones.
You get so many Megs or Gigs for $X. After that you get a message sent to either your phone or email saying that you have used up your data "minutes". You can then a)explicitly enable your connection again at $X/meg, or b) wait until next month.
Will it stop "unauthorized use" - no. Will it make it more expensive? yes. Which in turn means the cable company gets compensated and Ted has to charge his neighbors to make up the difference.
Best all around solution? No. But it works for cell phones, and would be reasonable compromise for most parties involved.
A pyramid chart that doesn't waste space. Except for the unusable space around the triangle. Maybe you could put 2 upside down triangles on either side...oh wait..
Uh..
You would think that of all places, KDE.org would expect to be slashdotted, and handle themselves accordingly. Oh well. We don't see all of the punches coming.
The Science Museum of Virginia has an Intel processor on display in their "We have this stuff we don't know what to do with anymore" section. I think it may be a 4004 even.
They also have a version of Space Invaders (red LEDs), a counting game to teach you how base 2 works, AND a flowchart game to guess the card you picked.
10. COMPATIBILITY MODE: Service Pack 2 (SP2) includeS a compatibility mode that lets programs run as if they were on a Windows NT 4.0 SP5 or Windows 95 machine. To enable this interface, perform the following steps:
Start a Run box (Start, Run).
Enter the following command: "regsvr32 %systemroot%\apppatch\slayerui.dll"
Click OK.
Click OK to the confirmation.
Now if you right-click a shortcut and select Properties, you'll see a Compatibility tab that lets you select whether the program target should run under an NT 4.0 SP5 or Win95 compatibility layer.
Windows 2K comes with a compatibility feature with SP2:

The author of The Outsiders did the same thing. She was worried that J.Q. Public wouldn't want to read a book about male adolescense written by a teenage girl.
Unfortunately this device would keep you from participating in a research survey/opinion poll.
Thus limiting your ability to put in your 2 cents on advertising/politics/products/etc. Sure you could a write an unsolicited letter to the company, but you may have a greater affect by being part of a study THEY pay for!
Think about it.
That stuff can be expensive-you better believe they look at those numbers!
This country was populated by people fleeing religious persecution -by christians mind you - or economic depression. Both reasons are existant throughout the world, but this country is where it shouldn't matter. This country is where people had the chance to be themselves, and out of it came one of the greatest countries on Earth - thanks to people fleeing oppresive regimes.
There is a wonderful political cartoon from the late 1800's when there was strong revitalization of anti-immagration sentiments. It was a bunch of rich fat men blocking the docks from the immigrants - but the shadows the fat men cast were of their ancestors - IMMIGRANTS.
It is unfortunate that ignorance causes so much hate. It works both ways.
If I recall from one of the myriad of articles, there have been 5 fires linked to those brands. While waiting for the replacement, I recommend only plugging in the power supply while you are present - that way you can notice the smoke/flame before it gets out of hand.

I've personally seen real and working danger devices
I've seen Lost in Space too! "DANGER WILL ROBINSON!"
heh.

I'm sure there's other uses too.
Bingo.

I doubt it was still in the building - 5 finger discount and all.
We used DHL for a while to ship computers between offices. Then they figured out what we were shipping, and they stopped showing up.
We switched to FEDEX then.

Very exciting stuff!
For Windows 2000, you can try the following:

I'm assuming it is similar to XP's emulation
I think there should be a "Whoops!" (+0) Mod.
It's a brand of duct tape that has a little duck on the inside band. You can buy it at cvs.
I believe that will take will take much longer to correct than the acceptance of female authors...

Yeah! Even A.L.I.C.E [alicebot.org] knows the difference between you're and your [slashdot.org]! She even makes fun of you for it.
I don't know about that - I called 2 weeks ago about reseting an Armada's boot password. Helped me out, no questions asked.
Word of caution - those mic wires aren't very secure!

Did you try Quantum Snap Servers?[quantum.com] Disk I/O can be a little slow on the lower end ones, but I've been happy with mine.

Actually there are several companies, including Symbol that manufacture ruggadized handhelds for these same situations.
Check out symbol's spt website [symbol.com]
It is interesting to note that the article is dated 1993.
BTW I love plan 9's used collection.
Possibly a bird of prey has a nest in the tower?
