  1. Re:What about on MS Security Chief Says Windows is Safer Than Linux · · Score: 1

    I'd argue the better analogy is the fat guy that never goes to the gym vs the "healthier" guy that goes often.

  2. Why use the pen at all? on 'Cut and Paste' Is Out, 'Pick and Drop' Is In · · Score: 5, Insightful

    So why use the pen at all .... why not use biometrics ... maybe fingerprints .... grab (pinch) a file and move it to the other guys machine .... you would just have to make sure that your finger print is readable on each end.

  3. Re:HOW ABOUT WE STOP TREATING THE MUSLIMS LIKE TRA on Protecting Cities from Hijacked Planes · · Score: 2, Interesting

    No where in the article does it mention Mulims ... perhaps you shouldn't assume that all terrorists are Muslim? That also would be a good start :)

  4. Where is the cell phone???? on Lust After The Sony Clie NZ90 · · Score: 1


    A lot of people mention the integrated cell phone; I just went through the specs, I don't see one?

  5. Retro surfing!!! on Building a Multi-Channel PVR System? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    You would want 16 channels recording at the same time so you could retro surf ....

    So as you surf around and you see something you like, you could rewind to the begining of the show.

    I have Tivo now, and often I will turn on the tv and realize that the show that is currently on, is one that I wish I had seen from the beginning. Since my Tivo was on that station, I can rewind a half hour back in to the buffer, but when I change the channel each channel doesn't have a buffer, so I'm for those I am out of luck. 16 tuners all being recorded would fix that problem ... at least for the stations that are being recorded.
