What's more interesting perhaps than the bike is the Tiny InterNet Interface - basically a Java computer running on a 72pin SIMM that's part of the bike.
The SIMM and a board to bring out the RS-232, Ethernet, and 1-wire interfaces is quite affordable and begs to be used for all sorts of cool projects.
It's at TINI
I just finished rewriting about 40 html pages to be DOM, CSS1, and HTML 4.0 compliant using the W3C verification tools. It runs fine under Mozilla and IE 5.0. It has javascript too, for dynamic drop down navigation menus. What's the problem?
If you stick with the W3C DOM1 standard you should have very little trouble with your javascript code.
Yeah, it's $150.00, but that's equivalent to Windows NT server which cost you $680.00. The professional version gets a license of the RSA Encryption required for use in e-commerce if you want to provide secure web pages via SSL.
If you read the openssl-users mail archive, especially the thread "Is it legal?" it seems that you still have to license the RSA algorithm if you plan on using OpenSSL commercially.
That's why I bought a copy of RedHat 6.1, which includes a single RSA license for use with Apache.
I tend to trickle my old systems down to family members. When that doesn't work, they become Linux boxes. I have a Cyrix 6x86L-PR150 sitting headless that just cracks RC5 keys because I can't find anything else for it to do. (it "only" has 16M RAM and a 600M hard disk) My K5-100 box is my modem ipmasquerade box, print server, file server, Postgresql/PHP/Apache test box, etc. I just put a MII-300 CPU in it because it was only $30.00 and it looked fun to do.
I'm running out of wall outlets though, and my 'office' in my house is getting harder and harder to keep cool...
Further, my wife is getting suspicious of how the CPU boxes seem to mysteriously multiply.
I agree. I also tried Oracle 8i and ran into similar problems using a Debian distribution. I still can't resolve the java.lang.thread issue even after following the Oracle OTN discussion about 8i Linux for several weeks. I finally gave up and installed Oracle 8. I got that running at least, though it was still slightly painful, and forced me to drop back to a glibc2.0 distribution. Oracle 8 will not run on a glibc2.1 distribution.
Still using PostgreSQL to run our web based, bug tracking system internally.
Is Slashdot still running on a single P2-450, 512 megs of RAM, Linux, Apache, perl, etc? That seems amazing compared to what Anandtech has. That site appears to require a Sun in addition to 2-3 Dual Xeon servers to keep running. Maybe it's all that Cold Fusion code running on Microsoft OS's that's slowing him down...
Or maybe he's just using all that big iron to maintain his #1 spot at distributed.net...

Agreed - a retractable screen such the ones on the communicator devices carried by characters in the show Earth, Final Conflict would be perfect.

Actually, you do have to modify your application if you want to make it MS Cluster aware.
Look up MSCS in the Platform SDK one of these days.

Was anyone besides me bothered by Tom's use of the FreeBSD daemon mascot in an article that has absolutely nothing to do with FreeBSD?

Where does that place Red Hat Secure Web Server and Covalent's Raven SSL for Apache?
