In the early 80s we had van halen on the apple 2+. creative computing magazine published a assembly language sampler with variable sampling rate. the apple 2 had a sound input - the cassette input.
On the crappiest setting, which had a grainy AM radio effect, 48Kb held about 20 seconds of audio. the best setting was something like 2 seconds.
You plug your 12V appliances into the 12V socket on the dash of course, the same place you would plug your optional cigarette lighter if you had ordered it.
I have a black and white Electrohome EVM 1410 (V10421) that was manufactured on February 14 1980 hooked up to a Philips Colour Voice 2000 cable converter. The Electrohome has the 'Walnut' finish - fake woodgrain on metal.
I also have a colour Commodore 1702 that I use as a TV and Apple//e monitor and a green Apple Monitor///.
I have two early-mid eighties Xscribe HRM-1 High Resolution Monitors (and a Xscribe C/PM box to go with them).
Oh yeah, the oldest TV I have is a Sony 5-303W Micro TV from 1962. Ten bucks at the Salvation Army. Bought a power cord (first place I went to had one in stock) and it works great. Original carrying case with Sony hardware.

then point that out. and as to taco, well i don't know too much about this site, and i'd like to keep it that way. some people around here don't seem to have a life outside of slashdot. sad.
Actually, to me (a Canadian of USian descent) it always seems weird and wrong to hear the word America used to refer to a country rather than a continent. It reinforces the stereotype the all USians are stupid.
Using apt-get with cdroms is simple - you add lines to/etc/apt/sources.list referring to specific cd's. Debian has this feature and it is quite user friendly. I don't remember the details as I don't use it myself these days.

The first video you've posted is of a Volkswagen double cab vanagon truck. Definitely sold in Europe.

This post makes me want to spray my powerbook beige. Come to think of it, beige was the colour of choice at Apple for over a decade.

actually the navy has marines to do its soldiering.
"BS. Police have the best guns, best equipment and more manpower than ANY criminal organization."
Except when the police are the BATF and the criminal organization is the Branch Davidians.

It sure is refreshing to see loose misspelled l o s e.

no, taco (whoever the fuck taco is) does not say that in that link - someone else attributes it to him (her?)
Actually you are making this up. The article is not about transmitting signals through gas. It is about installing fiber inside live gas lines.
although the word "fucking" was spelled out in the Wired article, it was edited out in the Slashdot post.

"'Freely' enjoying Microsoft since 1980."
Why not? It's perfectly acceptable to make a business out of modifying hardware systems. Ever hear of cars or trucks?

"'Freely' using Microsoft since 1980"
I thought the "Pearl Jam Effect" was the Eaglesization of punk rock.
Speeding is a civil, not criminal, offence. Big difference.
