    US taxpayers are helping too
    Govt. HGP budget numbers

  2. Will K Mart sell organs? on DNA Code - IP or Public Domain? · · Score: 1

    Great! BigCoWorldCom owns the patent for hearts.
    You can go to the meat market and get a new one
    any time you like. Just think, we can live any
    way we want to. Drink gallons of alcohol every
    day. New liver is just a click away on eOrgans.com!

    Ain't this a great time to be alive!

  3. Re:A better idea. on Glow-in-the-dark Christmas Trees · · Score: 1

    That will version 2 next for Christmas.

  4. Next they should... on Glow-in-the-dark Christmas Trees · · Score: 1

    Find a gene that will keep the needles from
    falling off.

  5. Re:This seemed more paranoid than useful on What's the Government /Really/ Classifying? · · Score: 1

    "Fact is, we don't know what the Govt is doing,"

    We don't get to know, but we do get to pay
    for it!

    Just imagine all the cool stuff "we own".

  6. Just a thought on What's the Government /Really/ Classifying? · · Score: 1

    What if Echelon could block any email it can't
    understand? My ignorance of encryption is
    boundless, but, that would seem to be a way to
    fight unwanted communication.

  7. Secrets on What's the Government /Really/ Classifying? · · Score: 3

    Back in 1994 I called my congressman. I asked
    for a copy of the crime bill about to be voted on.

    Their reply? "We wish we had a copy too".

    This was 2 days before it was to be voted on.

  8. Too mature? on CTO is Too Young for Comdex · · Score: 1

    Sounds like this "kid" has it together. Do people
    go to Comdex to work or play?

    I doubt this "kid" would be interested in playing anyway. Sounds like a worker to me.

    And, he should be an example to lazy butts like me!

  9. Sell it on How to Approach Venture Capital Firms? · · Score: 1

    Sell the idea. Get enough from the sale to
    start an even better business. Then sell it, repeat.

  10. this is an NSA test on October 21 is 'Jam Echelon' Day · · Score: 1

    they put out the idea to load test
    the machines.

    don't fall for it, don't use email today!

  11. Wild ride on Video Game Wars Aren't Always Games · · Score: 2

    I've been watching this video game thing since
    I saw a Pong machine at DFW in 1975.

    It's like I was telling my nephew, each generation
    of kids will grow up and produce better machines
    than they had.

    FS1 on a TRS80 with 4k was impressive.

  12. Re:Cool on Palm Pilot with Hard Drive · · Score: 1

    That is a problem with any computer equipment.

    You can stay up to date and pay to much or
    stay a few generations behind.

    Let the "early adopters" pay the development costs!

  13. Cool on Palm Pilot with Hard Drive · · Score: 1

    Won't be long till Palms are just like lap tops.

  15. Re:Jimmy on Simulating Human Musical Performance · · Score: 1

    like his amps

  16. Maybe Bill wants free improvements on Windows CE going Open Source? · · Score: 1

    Put it in the hands of 1000's of people, it's
    bound to come back much better. Cuts his costs
    and maybe keeps CE in the game.

  17. Re:Outstanding News! on 1100 MHz 'Athlon Killer' Due From Intel in December · · Score: 2

    AMD has been trailing Intel since the 286. Intel
    has had plenty of time to destory AMD.

    Thanks to AMD and others, Intel is not a monopoly.
    And, you can buy lots of nice machines for what
    a fully loaded TRS-80 cost in 1978.

  18. Outstanding News! on 1100 MHz 'Athlon Killer' Due From Intel in December · · Score: 1

    I may get an Athlon sooner!

    Let the price wars heat up!

    Don't you just love compition!

  19. Are the big boys losing it? on Apple & The G4 Order Truth · · Score: 1

    Intel is having problems.
    Now Apple. Are they getting fat and lazy?

    This reminds me of Microworkz, sort of.

  20. Re:Correction on Wired article ... on Cowpland Reacts to Insider Trader Charges · · Score: 1

    A small price to pay to live in a free
    country.

  21. Lobby = Pass Out Cash on MS Lobbies to Cut DOJ Antitrust Budget · · Score: 1

    So, which members of Congress will get some
    of that M$ cash? That's why they started this
    in the first place. Old Bill doesn't know how to
    "play ball".

    Sounds like he is learning fast.

  22. what? on Jeremy Paxman, BBC, Interview with Bill Gates · · Score: 1

    from the article:
    "The next stage technologically is
    accessing the Internet through the
    television and the telephone, says Mr Gates."

    did anybody at MS tell him he bought
    WebTV?

    something important about stocks.

  24. Victimless crime on Corel CEO Charged with Securities Violations · · Score: 1

    Who got hurt?
    Did he have to pay tax on the extra 7 million?

  25. Ok, if these are the problems, fix them on Gartner Slams Linux · · Score: 1

    You people out there that are "gurus" should
    stop reading Slashdot and start working on
    applications. If that is what "the enterprise"
    boys want, get it to them.



    you could start with a grammer checker
    from the article
    "Linux's major disadvantage in the enterprise space is that there are very few currently applications available for it."
