I was gonna use the PI as a network storage device, chaining 3 or 4 external usb hard drives to it via powered usb hub, and it worked and all but the PI is soooooo slow the transfer rate would dip down to 5K-10K/sec over LAN when trying to save a large file or copy a large file from it to desktop.
I think you are doing something wrong. I'm getting 8-9 MB/s using SMB shares on an external USB HDD (whcih also contains the root fs).
Don't use meaningful names! Instead use a number scheme. Call your servers Z000001, Z000002, etc. That way you don't have to change servername when the server changes function, location, etc. (if that's how you previously named your servers).
If you really need different names then create a DNS Alias/CName.
The article states that 33% in the range 0-10 years have a mobile phone. That translates to 100% of 6 2/3 - 10 year olds are having a mobile phone. That seems way to high -- especially when I compare to the real world (here in Denmark)!

I use iGoogle.com and cannot see why anybody would use drudgereport.com. Everything is just headlines. In iGoogle you at least get to read the start of the article/rss-feed before you proceed. How many times haven't you clicked on a headline and got disappointed when you discovered the article was about something completely different from what you expected?
I know google tracks me but I don't mind when I get something in return. In this case a useful feature...

I've got trouble getting my 10 year old to use a phone -- I can't see how you'll accomplish it with a 4 year old without surgery...
Why don't they do that themeselves?

With a name like that it's got to be real...
That's got to be the coolest avatar I've seen in a long, long time....

There is one really easy answer to that question: The article is in Dutch.
Notepad is good enough for most people. (I'm using it right now.)
You surf slashdot from Notepad? Wow...

WTF? How much bandwith does Skype require?
