When I had dial-up in the dark ages, I used to keep it up 24/7 just by having my mail client check for mail every minuet. I guess you could also just run a script that does a single small ping every once in a while. I did get some nasty emails from my ISP, but they never shut me down.
I don't think that he was speaking about WAP as in Wireless Application Protocol from a CellPhone. He was speaking about WAP as in Wireless Access Point. Unsecured 802.11 wireless.
Those are the ones! After further research on this topic, it appears that Jarts were banned for manufacture and sale in the US in December of 1988. So a good set of Jarts (4 jarts, 2 hoops, and a box) sells for $40-200 USD (the higher priced ones were unused vintage 1960's Jarts).
I wouldn't worry about creating guest accounts for your users. Linux is far to difficult for your users to use competently, let alone change settings on. Your users will be so overwhelemed with "how awful looking is on this computer" that they won't have time do change your precious settings
I grow tired of the microsoft anti-turst lawsuit. Lets sue the real evil, AOL/Time-Warner
I liked it better when Time-Life could only send me empty threats over the phone because I evaluated "Wizzards and Witches" and didn't pay $17.00 for it...now the Beast AOL/Time-Warner, if I piss them off, can threaten to take me 'off the grid' I don't like that.
....and keep in mind, the DOJ may not catch all of the enemys of the state, so if you suspect your parents and neighbors of 'Anti-Americanism' it is your civic duty to report them to your local branch of the FBI.
damn, you beat me to that one. Although, most CDR media is a single piece of plastic with an aluminum film on one side. So if he is speaking about manufacutred CD's then he is speaking about plastic covered Aluminum discs, but if he is talking about CDR's then he is somewhat correct
That is a pretty flimsy argument with little in the way of factual data. Out of the box, Windows 2000 server and now the Windows XP client allow outstanding remote administration through Terminal Services. The overtime degradation you are talking about can be severely limited if not eliminated all together with native windows tools such as Group Policy (considering this degradation you speak of is the result of poor quality 3rd party applications and programs...Comet Cursor anybody?). I could easily train a part-time admin at any of my client sites to keep a windows server up and running for the day to day types of tasks in just a short time. Linux on the other hand is less intuitive to somebody who is already familiar with the Windows they are running on their own PC. Linux has made great strides and continues to improve by leaps and bounds everyday but in a smaller environment (for instance), Windows makes a great argument for a lower TCO.
"Yeah, Microsoft is evil because they have taken away our choices, let's crush them so that the thing we like becomes our only choice" Why do we have to be for this camp or that camp? Why can't we all enjoy the best software available reguardless of who developes it?
I just connected to www.msn.com with netscape 6.0 what browsers are they talking about? Or what part of the MSN site in particular won't display with anything other than IE? Or is this just a shoot first ask questions later type of article where nobody botherd to check the accuracy of the story?
My first reaction to the picture was "aw how cute" but after I really looked at the thing for a second I started feeling the same wave of contempt that I feel when I see a bug crawl out of my shower drain...you know those beatle things that look like a leaf? And when you squash it green smelly stuff comes out...thats what that car reminds me of. If I saw one of those things on the road I'd be compeled to 'squash' it and pound it into the earth. One of those "protect the women and children" responses.

What the hell am I supposed to do with all of those micro channel cards I've been hoarding?

Not the plastic tipped ones either...

what the fort are you talking about?
Thanks to technology we can insulate ourselves from ideas and thoughts without lighting a bonfire.
Isn't Jupiter suposed to turn in on itself and become a second sun in 9 years...or was that just a movie I saw?

(from the CNN article)The system promises fewer computer crashes and will allow users to delete data from their hard drive.
Delete data from my own hard drive? What is this the year 2078? What an amazing feature!! What the heck are they talking about?
How the hell is this a Troll? Its Damn funny!!!

Except for the fact that you CAN get desktop systems with Linux pre-installed on them.
well, why would I spend $500 on a copy of Office XP when I could buy a copy of Office 95 for $20 and then an upgrade copy of XP for $200
