Actually, I live right next to a Ford plant that has a sign right on the gate, "All Foreign cars parked in this lot will be towed." Obviously that's not GM vs Ford, but domestic vs. import. but, same deal.
(so an employee there can drive a Nissan to work, he just can't park it within a mile of where s/he works)
i've tried to bring 2.5.37 up on 5 different machines, and they all crash anywhere from "OK, booting the kernel..." (hard lock) to getting all the way down to loading SCSI drivers, and getting "Powering off device 0." and then locking up.
EFnet has also struck 100,000 concurrent connections many times. THis is apparently just the first time anybody actually NOTICEd because I bet that 99,997 of those "concurrent connections" were robots, and/or "idle 7 days 21 hrs 36 min".
way back when the movie Pump Up The Volume came out.. if I remember, back in the mid to late 80's, licensing alone was $50,000 per year, before you get into any equipment costs.
Considering that I went to a high school that had it's own radio station (which I did DJ for for quite a while), I expect that there are probably substantial discounts for an educational institution.
Does your college have a radio station of it's own? If not, would it be possible to get the ball rolling to GET radio classes?
The college where I grew up by has 2 radio stations (Western Michigan University), and there was one at the high school I went to.
It's pretty cool for laptop connectivity - both Verizon and Sprint PCS offer PCMCIA cards that do all the work, without hooking up to a phone, and both can be added to an existing phone account.
Network upgrades by the end of the year (maybe) should increase max throughput on both systems to 384Kbps, with averages around 100Kbps, isntead of the current 144kbps max, with averages around 50kbps.

Looks like their web servers are about as reliable as their vehicles. It's too bad, because Deloreans really did look cool.
My 1993 Daytona is often said to resemble a Delorean in body style.. i think the older (89 or so) daytonas do even more so.. But the stainless steel idea just rocks. 'cept in the sunny days when you blind everyone around ya.
And they've been used rather successfully for many years in other vehicle applications. Just no one has bothered to apparently try it with an electrical motor. The gasoline powered motors turn an alternator, that then charges the battery. The difference here, of course, is that the batteries are also powering the engine at the same time. I'd be very willing to guess that there is also a Solar battery charger applying here as WELL as the alternator charger, to make up for the energy lost in the conversion, and the energy that is used to power the motor that turns the wheels.
A few alternators (available at your favorite motor parts store), plus a few solar 12V battery chargers (available at your favorite RadioShack), = enough power to likely keep those 12 12V batteries charged.
Do not underestimate the power of Solar energy. it's not perpetual motion, but it might be as close as we'll ever come to it.
I highly doubt you saw the OS/2 screen "crashed".. I've seen many an ATM left in "Admin" mode, where you can obviously tell it's OS/2,b ut can't do shit because it's expecting input from something locked up in the cabinet.. but i've never seen an OS/2 box crash. Ever.
I've gota P100 laptop, that is currently running Doze '98 on it. I've played with Linux, and OS/2 on it, but nothing gets the battery time out of it that the original Windows '95 install or the '98 install does. ('95 with the original laptop drivers was best for battery, but wouldn't load IE 6, so I upgraded to '98 on it)
40MB ram, 800MB hard drive, P100. Runs pretty well.
Linux and OS/2 also performed very well on it,but the battery time in both were awful.
The weirder part I think, is that I've been looking all damn day through SCSI drivers for Linux, Be, and other OS's, and I've probably run across his name a good double dozen times or more, and then I load up Slashdot for a quick douse of News before bed, and then.. there it is.

That's almost as freaky as the first Multiuser BBS system out there http://m-net.arbornet.org/.. where I disappeared for about 6 years, show back up, finger some of my old friends, and I get back "Account Reserved" along with an Obituary for the user.
As a complete and total aside, I think the Quake III bots do become smarter, until you reset them. Take a map that wasn't built by id, import a couple of medium skill level bots into it, and then watch them run around for a while. If there's a really difficult area to get into, that they don't find on their own, but they see YOU run into it, or rocket jump into it, or whatever, then they learn to do it. It's pretty cool. Kinda like my cat that learned to jump over the gate seperating the living room and the dining room, because the other cat was obsessed with my foot one morning, and followed me as i walked over it.
The first cat, who previously only knew how to crawl UNDER the gate, learned that he could, as well, jump OVER the gate, just like the kitten did.
The quake III bots often do the same. Another human showed me an area that is VERY difficult to get to with rocket jumps, and I started a level once, loaded a bot, and showed it how to get there. It started hiding in the spot!
well, actually, when given a URL, it downloads all files referenced by IMG tags within the page. Not the entire page. Also has some basic options for only taking files that match certain patterns, and stuff like that.
well, the pie menus killed my PReferences menu, so I used that as an excuse to install 1.1b. Holy Sweet Jesus, 1.1b is MUCH faster than 1.0/1.1a. Oh my God.
got it in, and whenever i right click, this pretty little graphic pops up, but no matter what i select from it all it does is select all the text in whatever frame i happen to be in.
...I had that problem with a site I really wanted to save a picture from (and it was a picture of myself!).. so I wrote a PHP script to download an entire site.

I regularly hit radioshack.com with Mozilla. Sounds like your lizard is smoking crack, sir.
Besides - isn't there a store somewhere near you?
This story is linked to by news.google.com in the sci/tech section! sweet!
Now slashdot can get slashdotted!

IRCnet is the largest.

A fuse is a fuse, is a fuse. Since you're talking about an amplifier, that probably means you want a slow blow fuse.
.25" glass fuse
8 amp 250v 1.25" by
Right size, it'll fit, it'll work.

....and I was a beta tester for 3.0 and 4.0.
Just to add some qualification to that.
OS/2 is freaking bulletproof. It's too bad it requires 512MB ram to run slow.
*sigh*

Well, honestly, I wasn't sure how it worked. But that clears it up a bit.
How could a single TCP session saturate a multiple-channel link? boggle....
Yes, I am quite interested in knowing, as well, the difference between a Metric unit of Ass and an Imperial unit of Ass.
Seeing that line re: metric assload is perhaps the funniest thiing i've seen on Slashdot all year so far.
After only 4 comments, I'm getting a blank page on the site listed in the article. Guess that didn't take too long to slashdot.
