I would wish that the Industry finally comes up with a standardized lithium-Ion Battery. In some form factor which enables it to be put on many types of devices. E.g. some sort of lego-type snap together or slide-on so if you want more capacity you just put more batteries. Yes, not round cells but square ones. Why do batteries have to be round?
didn't they say that during running of the Ad the live wire of the current would be switched to the outside shileding of the power cable so noone can touch it?
I don't need a web desktop. I just need a VNC client written in AJAX which can display my home PC anywhere on any browser behind ans SSL proxy/firewall. Now THAT would be useful.
Try to VNC home through a proxy where you don't have access to any way of creating a tunnel (e.g. a cybercafe)
it is way more tricky if you don't know if the coin is heavier or lighter. Usually this problem is done with 12, not with 24 because 12 is already difficult.
if the assholes are sitting in front of me, they get a freek coke shower from the rest of my coke. I unfortunately had no popcorn left (ate that *before* the movie starts) but the coke was very well recieved (they left the theatre).

I was soldering a video extension to my atari ST, that's one of those homecomputers which did not know about PCI. And to see results it was running live and I was checking the monitor.
OOPS... the soldering iron slipped and scratched across the whole motherboard bouncing off various chips. No SMD that time, lucky me... still it made contact somewhere.
For some obscure reason this triggered an SCSI-format command to the harddisk. Huh?
Punishement for soldering on a powered up computer is harddisk erasing? Interesting...
I can detect if I'm running emulated or not. Just reading 2 times a non existant memory location gives 2 different results (random bus signals). I don't know of any emulator doing this correctly.
Or waitstates. An emulator always makes same waitstates, even if on a real system they are slighly varying.
This is my really simple idea how to make a sysV boot in parallel. Keep it all like it is and just change the rc script to this: if the numbers are the same, start those in parallel. Then just change the S* links to identical numbers where you know they can be paralellized.
Result is that installers can dump their init scripts as before and they will boot fine.

Shops should simply stop selling data disks in the CD-audio section. They should put them into the software section where they belong. Then I won't complain.
All CD's I want to buy I take them to the cashier. Then I check if they have the mention "CD Audio" and if not or if it says "wont play on PC" I leave them there with the comment that those don't work on my system and that I'll download them as MP3 from the Internet instead:-) Shop will have to put them back themselves. It's their fault if they sell faulty items.

no you can't load NVC through java behind a firewall with a web proxy. The VNC port are not allowed through the firewall.
Have you actually tried this?

Still today I use XV
resize, crop, color adjust, little edits, rotation
covers 90% of my needs.
It lacks: resizing to bigger than screen size, clone tool and red eye removal

Thanks to the MPAA announcing the availibility of Episode III on bittorrent, I know now which client to start and search for it. Great service.

I have exactly the same problem and AOL is of no help. I will just remove AOL support from my system.
Yahoo works fine.

hehe, and what about this:
:-)
analyze CPU speed timings.
install Xor crpyting interrupt routines 1, 2, 3 and 4
routines 1 & 2 decrypt current instruction+2
routines 3 & 4 encrypt current instruction-2
the program has to run at exactly the right speed to be in sync with timers.
Oh and the main program of course runs in trace mode, doing some fancy things at each instruction, so a debugger can't run.
oh yeah... good old days
never noticed it?

Well nice from you, but *I* am the customer and you want *MY* money. You should do everything to get it.
