I highly doubt there's a single solution that'll do all that, but it can't be too hard to slap something together something like what you're talking about.
Basicaly, you need a remote control audio switcher - to take a series of rca inputs and switch them onto a single output. You said you want wireless, however, even radioshack sells some pretty cheap wired A/V switchers that'd work for the job. If you love streaming on the AirPort (why wouldn't you?) you could use the audio in on your computer to facilitate streaming over AirPort. If you don't like the airport, there's a lot of comercial solutions for transporting audio wirelessly.
I expect that the packets i'm sending should get to wherever the fuck i am sending them unless i'm breaking the law
That's funny, because, I expect my packets to go wherever the fuck I'm sending them. Period. If I am infact breaking the law, at some point I excpect either a C&D letter, or an officer of the law to inform me my packets got there.
The Doctor on voyager was the charecter to view our humanity - as much as voyager sucked, I think he was one of the best charecters throughout the series.
How exactly can the artist make more money with a copyright that lasts longer than he/she does? Sure, the company can, but that's not the intention of copyright as written into the constitution.
This isn't entirely legal p2p. The torrent is not seeded by microsoft, it's being hosted by a 3rd party. I don't have time to go through microsoft's EULA for SP2, but chances are - you're not allowed to distribute it. It may be "free beer", but MS can still raise a fuss about who sends it out.
If it had been, wouldn't their flights be about a year late, go to a diffrent destination and offer half the in-flight perks that were prommised? We were talking about MS and Fiat here, not Apple and BMW....
Apple doesn't just put things in a pretty blue shell.
But, design is one of the most important compnents of "making something" - especially if you plan on selling it. Ask yourself why the iPod is the most popular MP3 player out there. It's well designed.
Of corse, Apple also does QA and plenty of other things when "making something" to ensure that it works when you buy it. They get a HUGE advantage in having only a handful of possible configurations of hardware they have to support.
No. They calculated (or more specificly, one of their "experts" who they "interviwed" on the show) calculated that with current landfil tech...However deep it is they dig em now, 30X30 miles is all it takes.

The iPod is REALLY sturdy. On more than one occasion, I've dropped it from a belt level, on to cement. Once I managed to fling it across the room by getting the headphones caught on something. Each and every time, I've picked it right back up, it continued playing music, and hardly even has a scratch.
A gigabyte IS 1000 megabytes. A megabyte is, however, NOT 1024 kilobytes or 104576 bytes. That's MiB and GiB you're thinking of. Giga and Mega are SI prefexes. Not binary compatible.
According to SCO's claims against the GPL, the mere fact that they viewed it would be illegal. From the licence to the gpl itself:
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
But, not if SCO has anything to do with it.
Furthermore, the IBM-SCO licence would also be illegal (If IBM ever shiped more then one copy of AIX)
They sure shoved their foot up their mouth pretty damn good.
Why doesn't someone set up a simmilar scam, only insted of harvesting emails after n have been entered, it would display a little warning about such scams, and then send the user to an internet privacy site. If you DO take the emails, and send the same message to them, you could (on the warning screen after THEY entered emails) show who the spam was really from. Kind of a warning to not trust them with your email again.
Yep. 2 (or more) player hotseat games (turn based multiplayer on one box). That way, nobody need move when it is their turn. It also helps if you have multiple keyboards as well, but only for some games. I would also imagine that with USB it would be entirely possible to have player 1/2/3/x on seperate mice for live one machine play. Aside from games, I cannot however think of any uses for 2+ mouse systems
He says they can be used for an in eye display. Ok, I'll buy that. The mirror and such doesnt need to move THAT fast for an acceptable refresh rate. But how fast does the mirror have to move to replace say...a 40" TV? or bigger? Also, will we be able to see even higher refresh rates with this?
Most of the posts here seem to be argueing about how to run the MacOS on one of these. While that might be nice, I think the user experence of a mac (hardware/software all matching and working together and whatnot) is good. There are, however, other uses for a PowerPC chip. PPCs are some of the smallest, fastest and coolest chips around. These could be used for any number of (mostly) imbedded systems. The new G4 towers apple makes have one (very quiet) fan to cool them with. Show me a compareably fast system that doent sound like a jet engine. Quiet is quite often good.
This is just a PC. It doesnt come with windows, but it's a PC. Comon, 20 gig hard drive, CD rom, 800MHz Pentium3? I'll betcha it's got a pretty damn standered BIOS too. Don't be fooled tho, this is just a windowless PC. And easier to set up then an iMac? Please. Unless this thing comes with a teenage tech in the box, it's not going to get much simpler. Also, the original iMac is $799, the specs are pretty equal too, except for the iMac comes with a full fledged OS. Both would make very good cheap linux boxes. Almost any distro will run on both PPC and x86 hardware. Except this one Ok, you got me. That's a BSD. Still pretty damned nice.
I think it's very doubtful that either Apache or ISS will be going anywhere, any time soon. Infact, Nothing MS makes (with the exception of all their osses but XP) is going anywhere. Don't get me wrong, Apache kicks ass, But, IIS has Microsoft and their billions of dollars of bank account. That's why it's hard to beat MS. Even the best quality sometimes loses out to piles, and piles of cash. On the other hand, Apache is one of the most easy to use and god damned powerful peices of software i've ever used. But, the poster was crazy. MS will not dump IIS for a long, long time.
When I watch TV (not all too often) it's because I have time to kill. I turn to Comedy Central, or some other chanel, and I watch TV till my brain rots. That's all I like TV for. When I'm looking for something SPECIFIC, that's when I visit my good buddy google.com, or a p2p app, like morpheus. The whole point of TV is not to be a searchable database of human history. That's the internet. TV is the thing with all the ads, and mind numbing video, that requires NO USER INTERACTION.
In short....I like TV the way it is. Use this tech to make web searches work better, not to make TV more work.

Perhaps you've keyed onto the true origins of the east cost/west cost "issues" in rap.

Shouldn't that be "Verbing nouns weirds english"? Unless youre verbing the english language itself, in which case, that's a whole new kind of weird.

Firewire (Wired) is bus-powered. Provides much more juice over the bus, as well. The 6 - Pin version, at least.
Firewire actuly has quite a bit of power on the bus. 12V/65W max I beleive.
Yes. I do. Damned not previewing.

I just bought a 2000+, and I thought I was cool. Looks like I'll have to upgrade again. Can anyone lend me some LOX to cool this thing down?
