  1. big show stopper on Open Office - What's the Downside? · · Score: 1

    lack of ability to embed audio into the presentation of an Impress document...so it plays continuously while you switch through the slides..

    there is a hack creating a macro to play a sound file via quicktime or windows media player or xmms but they are HACKS not solutions.

  2. Re:So you were sitting on it... on How Do You Re-Sell a Domain Name? · · Score: 1

    yes, you should..oh wait..it wasn't me who offered the $3k...

  3. Re:The appearance thing aside... on High Schooler Is Awarded $100,000 For Research · · Score: 1

    here.. MIT Tuition and fees $33,600 for undergrad studies with ZERO financial aid...
    certainly not the cheapest of Universities...but no where near the mean either.
    enjoy

  4. Re:Robotic, cookie cutter hiring on Ballmer Says Google's Growth Is 'Insane' · · Score: 1

    the problem is you didn't come up with a creative response to a question you didn't know the answer to ;)

  5. Re:The appearance thing aside... on High Schooler Is Awarded $100,000 For Research · · Score: 2, Insightful

    a couple of years?

    $100,000 will get you all the way through your masters now days. Assuming you can maintain some semblance of a GPA.

  6. Re:Depends on Using Technology to Improve Kindergarten? · · Score: 1

    K12LTSP is a distro directly aimed at education.
    and has all of the fun edutainment games.
    Watching the 1st graders use TuxPaint and KTuberling has been quite enjoyable as they create wildly imaginative "artwork" ;)

    http://www.k12ltsp.org/

    free with a very large support community.

  7. Re:Yes on Can You Be Sued for Quitting? · · Score: 1

    They'll sue him for wasted productivity while surfing slashdot at work...

    the rest of you beware!

  8. Re:Spaceballs? on AmigaOS 4 · · Score: 1

    Sorry Captain, they've jammed the hardware...

  9. Re:if you like this... on Building a Programmer's Rosetta Stone · · Score: 1

    oh if only I had my first pascal program of 99 bottles of beer....it was wildly entertaining for such a lively song.

  10. Re:If you're like me on After 100M IE7 Downloads, Firefox Still Gaining · · Score: 1

    Likely MANY LESS...because installing FF does not BREAK currently working pages(they actually adhere to some semblance of a standard)...more likely is it is sitting there installed with the desktop icon deleted...and merely unused.

  11. Two Words on Who won? · · Score: 1

    Electoral Votes

  12. 1.6 million hours? on Seagate Claims 2.5" SCSI Drive is World's Fastest · · Score: 1

    divide that by 24...and you get 66666.66667....

    definitely looks fishy to me

  13. Re:Minor correction on Largest Twin Prime Yet Discovered · · Score: 1

    first of all... did Eric Vautier PROVE this is a twin prime?
    and also...

    doesn't that +- 1 at the end allow for some sort of variance ?

    I'd like to see the proof written out ;) LaTeX that bad boy Eric!

  14. Re:If you're like me on After 100M IE7 Downloads, Firefox Still Gaining · · Score: 1

    and how many of those 100million downloads of IE7 got uninstalled immediately following?

    I know at least 15 that did and that's just at 1 tiny location. Using IE7 caused some webapps to no longer function...

    and yeah..download FF once .. create the image for all of the network boxes and push the image out... 1 download 100+ installs...I prefer to look at site traffic-stats than download stats.

  15. yay 5 comments and /.'d already on Home Theater Transformed Into Star Trek Bridge · · Score: 0, Redundant

    poor trekkie, no bonus points at the Star Trek convention this year.

  16. Re:Everyone uses it on Inside MySpace.com · · Score: 1

    26 million accounts....of which 1 million of them are active more than once a month(as in the creator managing the account) ??

    No hard numbers..just a guess.

  17. Re:you know.... on Teacher Found Guilty of Endangering Kids Due to Spyware · · Score: 1

    10 times 4 == 40...

    they would then REQUIRE any and all illicit sexual content on the web to use .xxx
