I do actually want SMS capability in phones that I buy as that is what I primarily use my phone for. The next phone I buy will also need WAP, but they all come with that these days anyway.
Things like SMS were just 'add-ons' to bulk up a package, but they've effectivelly created their own industry and language!
Maybe there should be 'simple phones' for those who want them, but then they wouldn't be able to receive text messages, and those who send them wouldn't understand cos "everyone's phone can receive texts".
I've got the copper one (~800g) on my Athlon. I've had it in the back of my car travelling between uni and home for vacations. I've probably done at least 1000 miles of travelling with it in my car.
Tip 4: Make your web site not look like ass [prairie-engineering.com]. Clean, simple designs are easy; use one. If you can afford someone to write a stupid Java based hover effect (better implemented with JavaScript or CSS), you can afford a professional looking web site.
Look at the source - they used Front Page, version 3.
Damn Small Linux is very usefull. I have a copy of Knoppix with me at home, but its not something you can keep on you at all times as its too big. CD is larger than pocket.
However DSL fits onto a buisness card CD that I can keep in my wallet. If someone is having problems and Windows won't boot for whatever reason then I guess its geek to the rescue. Normally I'd have to go home to pick up the Knoppix disk but now I can use DSL. Tis good.
If you're looking for something quiter, then try one of these. I have one in my computer. It was a very good purchase, now all I hear is my PSU, so that'll have to be sorted out next.
As an added point, two minutes after setting Windows Media Classic as my default player; I got a message from Real to inform me that it was no longer my default player for ram files....stupid messages like that would be the reason!
I'd rather keep the pilot in control and have these sorts of systems only as a warning.
Wouldn't it be better to weld the cockpit door shut and have a seperate door for the pilots from the outside? It may be a bit of a bodge on current aircraft but all new ones could be built like this. Then we wouldn't need overriding computer pilots or (more worringly) armed air marshalls.
We'll have to move from physical money to electronic money like we currently have with credit and debit cards. There isn't really any need for physical money and more.
All the goverment needs to do is remove bank charges for small businesses and we can wave good buy to the several thousand year old practise of exchanging pieces of metal.
People who use it's integrated rendering engine for OE/HTML email - but you can change that easily too.
How can you change that? I assume you're talking about the pretty little button you get for making rich HTML emails in Yahoo! mail if you're using IE. You don't get them if you use Mozilla. So when my gf wants to write emails from my computer she is 'forced' to fire up IE, simply to get those extra buttons to make emails look better.
This is an intresting idea. However this would probably be possible at the moment by using a sailing ship fitted with a computer to control the sails to get the maximum energy from the wind and travel in the desired direction. The computer could be powered by solar cells.
This has actually been done by a Japanese company a few years ago. I saw it on 'Tomorrow's World' (BBC TV program). They successfully transported goods across a large distance without the use of fuel. However diesel is currently cheap enough and diesel ships travel faster, so there seemed to be little intrest in the idea. I would like to know if that company still exists, but I can't find anything about them on the net.
Yay! The Casio Data Watch. I had one exactly the same, and have had it for years. Unfortunatelly I changed the battery and inadvertently damaged the seal. When I went swimming it killed it. Amazingly it started working again!
Since I got a mobile in '98, there hasn't been much use for it as everything I want is on my mobile and easier to access. Now I just use an anologue watch which I find easier to read.
There is a linux on a watch thing that IBM made, but I'm now so hooked on using my mobile, I'd need to make calls and sent text messages before I replace that with a PDA watch.
Why are there two branches of Apache? There's the 1.3 and 2.0 lines. I've heard that 1.3 is better than 2.0, so is 2.0 effectivelly a beta? Why are there still new releases of 1.3, why not concentrate on 2.0?

Now, thats an intresting time.

Um, we're not charged for receiving calls. On cell phones, yes, but not on POTS, which was the topic at hand.
How much are you charged for receiving calls?
I'm from the UK, and didn't really know this happened - I don't think it does here. Does it only happen if someone from a different network calls you?

Will OSDN be donating any equipment or money to Wikipedia for the effect of slashotting their servers? They seem to be falling all over the place.

No problems...
This is probably FUD

Unfortunatelly there are no binaries up on their SourceForge page yet, although they do have the source up.
This does look very intresting and will save me rebooting to switch between Linux and Windows apps.

Why not just sell these pre-programmed with Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera modules?
Sell? It'll be out on P2P before long, unless the DWAA (Dream Workshops of America Association) get to you first, then you'll have bad dreams.

The windows url files have no support for bookmark groups
You could just use a directory to store a group of bookmarks.
As an added point, two minutes after setting Windows Media Classic as my default player; I got a message from Real to inform me that it was no longer my default player for ram files. ...stupid messages like that would be the reason!
This is exactly what I'm looking for. I no longer need Real Player or Quicktime.
I'd rather keep the pilot in control and have these sorts of systems only as a warning.

This is the article they wrote and submitted to Linux Journal:

FYI C&A closed down a few years ago.
yeah, I remember that.
tech ppl seemed to care more that memory prices went up than ppl loosing their homes and sometimes their lives.
Yes, that seems to be correct. It sounds like those access points route you through to the top of the mountain.

If this friend moved over to Linux and removed Windows, then they will loose ntfs.sys and will no longer be able to access their NTFS partition.
In other words they'll always need Windows and will never be able to fully migrate.
