In Sun networks, typically all applications and windows are served from a central location over the X protocol. In responce to your other point, in my 2000+ user network I am not root, and I do not have any special previliges. (And no I don't own a $9000 Sun Blade myself)
Through the use of remote X clients, windows from other copmuters can be displayed on Solaris X. I have been known to kill the dtwm process (ugly motiff window manager), replace it with sawfish (running remotely off an intel machine), and even run gnome-panel. The result is a desktop on CDE that effectivly is gnome. Programs launched from the gnome menu work fine. You must make shell scripts with timmers (sleep) to invoke the commands because on our machines, the keyboard doesn't work when dtwm is killed. Obviously the server running linux is on the same local network as the Sun boxes because otherwise it might be a little slow.
Poe wrote this in 1848, the big bang idea became popular in the 1960's, the article says. Did someone only now in 2002 just discover that Poe had the same idea? I guess there doesn't need to be an ocassion for interesting tidbits. Poe is cool.
At my school www.uncc.edu they run seti non stop on all the winXP boxes and slows the net work down. I don't know how much network activity seti uses, but I'm sure hundereds of boxes running it on a 10baseT network doesn't help the situation. We also run lots of dumb terminals, by which I mean computers just running X, so that needs a lot of bandwidth. Computers should be used for something more useful like folding.stanford.edu the distributed folding project.
The latest scientific data now is speculates that life may exist where previously overlooked: on the planet Earth, aka "The Blude Planet". Keep in mind that this is entirely unproven, but more effort should be put into researching this possibility.
China banned importing electrical scrap for salvage over a year ago, but organized crime continues to bring it in. The people use toxic acid baths to reclaim bits of gold. It is hazardous to their health and environment. India is also a large importer of this waste. Your computer scrap only goes to these places if you do drop it off at a recycling center. If you trash it, it goes to your local land fill. CRT monitors are very bad for the environment. Contact your local government to find out where yu can safe ly leave your CRT. If your PC works at all, schools and even jails will want it for donation.
I agree, magnets in your computer are a bad idea. (a magnet shouldn't hurt any chips, but the disk) The fact that these magnets are spinning, means that they produce lots of EM noise. This is how radio jammers work. Here are fans with out magnets: [geeknews.com] piezo fans
The technology to do this has existed for MANY years. It's just a matter of public acceptance, as it is with many other cool things that never came into mainstream. For example, it is much easier to automate subways than cars (one dimensional verses two, no traffic) and we've had the ability to for decades. The only reason is the "safety issue" of the computer malfunctioning, which is probably less likely than a human falling asleep. Another thing: people don't seem to like the idea of machines displacing jobs for humans, but it would probably create more (robot car industry). And the moral of the story is, "be open to new crazy ideas."
Why can't spammers be caught by simply looking at what it is they want us to buy and questioning the company? I would think that many spammers get a commission for buys or website hits, hence the long string of characters and/or numbers included in many links in spam (identifying you and or the spammer to the company).
It shows that Intel is a progressive company in that they are open to changes (better ways) and not stuck on proving themselves right. The last step in the engineering design process is "to perform post-implementation review and assessment," which this reflects. Intel also saw that their slot architecture wasn't good and switched back to sockets during the PIII's run. (What the benefits of either architectures are, I'm not sure) My question: will Intel's use of DDR bring prices up by decrease in supply?
The protocols in email allow for the sending address to be spoofed, so email can be compleatly anonymous. I don't know if this is a downfall, really. Lots of people get paid to harvest email addresses. I even get spam advertising lists of email addresses (with those of hackers removed). Anybody can run a email server off their mechine. The real way to catch spamers is to find out where they want you to send money (overtly stated in each message) or to which web page they want you to visit. And then you can haxor them or what not.
It seems to me that since, in effect, this is just a way to remotly set a jumper as open or closed. If one bought more than one of these cool little things (which wouild probably be pretty easy to make), one could also control the slave jumper, and therefor be able to easily use different drive set ups. Some stuff in the CMOS might need to be changed. I would think that these things could also be used for setting other jumpers, say the ones on your mobo.
I'm not Linux EXPERT, but why would these silly little features be built in to the kernel? It seems to me that a shell script could acomplish this easily, or a new shell. BTW, I think BASH is easy to learn and powerful on its own. Let me know what you think.
This is my first/. post!

So, will Sony contiune to call it iLink on their products? I think they used the term iLink so they didn't have to pay royalties to Apple, right?

Well, acording to my TI-89, log(x) is base 10, while ln(x) is base e. Do you want to argure with my calculator?

The article says that "...the natural logarithm of 2, often written "log(2)"," but really, it would be written "ln(2)".
