Ethernet is not just RJ45. It's whatever you can encapsulate Ethernet over. Ethernet over SCSI is pretty common. Also, serial isn't a port, it's a communications method.
Lain, Key, GitS, Akira, are all seen as classics in there genere in the anime medium, not unlike how Casablanca and Gone With the Wind are considered classic movies.
Then you have Tenchi, which is Friends gone horribly wrong. Or, there's Kite and such, the Rambos of anime.
You have BubbleGum Crisis and sequels, the A-Team of anime, if you will.
Then you have things like Evangelion, Key and Lain, which have no parallels I'm aware of. Which I think is why they're so popular.
Or perhaps I'm completely off base here. Either way, I'm going to go back to watching Tenchi in Tokyo.
The reason I choose Grave of the Fireflies isn't to show cause and effect. I didn't like it for that, either. Kid, live with the aunt (or whatever, forget her exact role) and get a job. Apologize.
Anyway, the reason I picked that one is because it's easily understood. Sure, I could make someone sit through all 8 or 9 hours of Evangelion, then show them End. Or I could make them sit through all the layers of Lain, then make them do it again so they can even begin to understand it. Or I can say "Here's a good example of the GOOD stuff, the stuff with a story, and doesn't dedicate 6 episodes to a couple of guys standing around, grunting at eachother with their arms in the air" (see DBZ's Freeza "series", which could have been done in 3 episodes).
It's a quick teaser to the heavier stuff. That, and I prefer my anime on DVDs, and the entire Eva series isn't available yet. I'd take DivX rips if available, though:)
Tenchi Muyo (I picked up Tenchi Forever on a whim, and really liked it. I'm watching Tenchi Forever now)

My all time favorite "Debunk the 'Anime has no story' myth" movie is Grave of the Fireflies. I consider this one of the 3 or 5 best FILMS I've ever watched. If anyone can honestly watch this film and, afterwards, say Anime sucks, I'll be suprised.

Personally, having a bad tech job currently (tech support) and a decent job immediatley before this (flipping burgers), I think I'm qualified to say I felt better flipping burgers for $6.50/hour USD than I do doing tech support for $10.30/hour USD.

What don't you people understand about this? Almost ALL slashdot stories are submitted by people who read Slashdot. At least one person found this interesting, Slashdot worthy, and didn't know it had been posted.
Perhaps the/. wannabe editors should do a little reading of the stories before they post yet another bitch about a repeat post.

Read this as "They've never done it before, so of course they're going to have problems finding a good way to get information out."

Yes, 95+IE will eat less RAM, most likely, than KDE+Netscape 4.x.
That's why you use fvwm(95 if you want that look) and Netscape 3. Opera for Linux is another option.
No, no it won't. You'll just annoy whatever tech you get ahold of that day. I know this from experience, as I've been on BOTH ends of the phone.

No... You just didn't watch it the right way.
You need to see all the episodes to even begin to put it all together. Now, watch them all AGAIN. NOW you may understand it. Heh.
It's THAT type of series.
