Not bad for $50! (I bought an 8GB SD card preloaded with NOOBS and a case as well.) We're off grid here at Breitenbush, so the fact that it's easy on the power consumption is a big plus. I'm not sure if there's a daughtercard for this, but more memory would be nice. Mine uses aprx to act as an I-Gate for APRS and drives a TNC-X built from a kit (http://www.tnc-x.com/) and takes audio from the scanner from a USB Signalink (http://www.tigertronics.com/slusbmain.htm) which has a few extra features that make it really nice for this app. Y'all already know about Samba.
As a former fundamentalist Christian, I can speak to this.
There are a couple of things going on here. First, if evolution is true, then the creation story in Genesis is not true, and thus there is no fall of man and no need for a Savior. The whole of fundamentalist Christianity falls apart. This is why their panties get in such a bunch over evolution.
Second, in fundamentalist Christian circles there is a disdain for expertise not based on the Bible. This includes science. There is a well-known verse, Proverbs 3:5-6, that says, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight." In other words, only god knows how things are to be, and putting human understanding against the wisdom of the imaginary sky daddy is sin. Some would call it idolatry.
These folks will never trust science that does not already agree with them. We who do promote science should not waste our time in extensive debates with fundamentalist believers. Just leave a nice, bright Exit sign above the door for those who decide to leave the fold.

While I like having choices, I prefer that the out-of-box settings be reasonable and that the choices that are most likely to be used are obvious. This way, I can get useful stuff done right away, but I'm still able to hack as I need to.
Give it to your cat/other pet to play with (under supervision, of course). At least, I'd be tempted to do that, except for the small parts that may be involved.
Re-paint it and use it as a hamster-cage decoration.
I would also like to point out that (and I think others have provided examples of this) management may decide to just not tell him that something is wrong, or that management thinks that the problems should be obvious to the employee, and therefore the employee should take corrective action. This, of course, is not the way to manage people, but some managers are utter scum or clueless in this regard. PS. My advice to managers is "Always make sure employees know why they are in the wrong so that they can fix the problem." Dropping hints is not enough.
I am also a qwest.net customer, but I seem to have evaded the Cisco 675 lockup problem. I am guessing that this is because I have port 80 forwarded to one of my computers, which is running Apache. So far today, I've seen 22 hits from this worm in the Apache error log.
I found an article on this at the BBC's web site here. It lists several minor problems that have occured worldwide. And it's all minor stuff (or things that were easily worked around), for which I am thankful. Of course, we have a few more hours in which we could have problems, but it sure looks fine from here.
BTW, I am in Iowa, and everything appears to be functioning properly.

Yes, this is what I meant.
I'm in the US, and thanks to the our belligerence, I can now expect to try to defend my networks from the blowback from all this. Lovely.
I always knew my Droid was the right choice!
...without the Hoff. Thanks.

I know everybody else is saying this, but congratulations!
