Can some fellow/.'s recomend a webcam software that can stream to mutiple users (not just on a subnet or internal network) and has good authentication to prevent unauthorised viewing of the streams?
Depending on your application you may be interested in flexTPS, a GPL "flexible TelePresence System" intended for streaming telemetry data from various devices, primarily IP-enabled webcams, to web-based clients with various levels of authentication. Although the software is only packaged in RH Linux RPM form, I understand the only real environmental requirements are Perl and Apache and it should be fairly distro-agnostic. (Disclaimer: I am not involved in flexTPS development or application.)
It doesn't seem to have been released to the public, but with the smartphone market heating up at that point there might not have been much interest.
Other posters have covered the Intel/Xircom/Rolodex REX PDA series. I have a REX 3000 and it's really neat for what it is. Any modern cellphone probably has the same capabilities (except for fitting into a PCMCIA slot).
ACCRC has been parallel processing with vegetable oil for a while now. Here are some photos of their cluster I took during a visit circa July 2004, with another pic of the generator.
AFAIK the generator uses straight vegetable oil, rather than biodiesel which is formulated for use with unmodified diesel fuel systems. Note the copper heat exchanger and foil insulation on the generator; the oil must be heated to reduce its viscosity before introduction to the engine.
At this point I think SUSE was their distro of choice, at least for the desktop (SUSE/KDE is visible on the monitor node console). Not sure what the rest of the cluster was running.
At 9:40 a.m., as workers went about their business in the Catholic War Relief Office on the 79th floor, the B-25 crashed into that office at 322 kilometers per hour. The impact reportedly tore off the bomber's wings, leaving a five meter by six meter hole in the building. One engine was catapulted through the Empire State Building, emerging on the opposite side and crashing through the roof of a neighboring building. The second engine and part of the bomber's landing gear fell through an elevator shaft. When the plane hit, its fuel tanks were reported to have exploded, engulfing the 79th floor in flames.
The 102-story building shook with the initial impact, according to witnesses, but within three months, the damage was repaired at a cost of about $1 million.
Your post cites a definition of "anarchy". I don't believe the parent poster used that word once. Here's Merriam-Webster's take on anarchism:
1 : a political theory holding all forms of governmental authority to be unnecessary and undesirable and advocating a society based on voluntary cooperation and free association of individuals and groups. 2 : the advocacy or practice of anarchistic principles.
TeraTerm stores its settings in an external file (teraterm.ini), which can be quickly modified and eases large-scale deployment of your preferred configuration.
PuTTY stores all settings in the Windows registry; a deliberate (and, in some ways, reasonable) design decision that makes distribution of a pre-configured client a little more difficult. (There is a semi-hack
way of doing this in the PuTTY docs.)
PuTTY seems to have better emulation defaults, and I prefer it for personal use.
As proof, consider the V8 swaps that have been done into small cars such as the Fiero or even the Chevette. (My first car was an '80 Chevette...a bigger engine would've kicked ass.:-) )
Not to mention doubling the number of cylinders in a Volvo 240...a very popular sleeper
conversion.

I've never been able to get the HostAP drivers into promiscuous mode, myself. Perhaps your problem is somehow related.

I can't believe nobody's yet flashed on the obvious technology that fits every mentioned qualification.
And Steve Jobs' interest is hardly without precedent.
