I love Orbitz's searching (especially the +/- 3 days matrix price comparison). But I've never bought through them, as I can just to directly through the airline's website after arming myself with Orbitz's information.
BitTorrent isn't designed to make the original source unnecessary...it's designed to simply reduce load on the original source. Which it does quite well. The original source tends to send out around the bandwidth of a single upload at any one time.
This is not true, or at least is potentially misleading. BitTorrent's 'original source' is actually a peer setup by the.torrent's tracker operator (therefore seeding the BT network with the.torrent operator's bandwidth). That could possibly be the original source, but it's likely that its not. Such would not be the case (until movie studios setup.torrents themselves) in the case of movie trailer.torrents.
See this thread on the BitTorrent development mailing list for more information on the possibility of extending BitTorrent to fall back on a true original source if the number of peers is insufficient.

there was a 7.6 quake w/ epicenter in Colima, Mexico (a bit south of Puerto Vallarta, west coast) that hit a few hours ago. Shook the house a fair deal here in Guadalajara. Far as I can tell, Guadalajara (only six million people) is a deal closer to the epicenter than Mexico City, but the sensationalist US media seem to think nobody else exists. Oh well.

Interestingly, I did choose to customize the packages that I upgraded, but I didn't see Apache there. It apparently forced me to upgrade. Can anyone confirm this? Perhaps I overlooked it.
Yikes? From what I've read on the subject of Australia's extinct giants, they were most likely wiped out 'quickly' by our human ancestors after they found their way to the island, as the animals had not had the advantage of millions of years of learning to fear man. So we just clubbed them on the head, had a ton of duck stew, wore duck skin coats, and laughed at those stupid enough to walk underneath trees with crocs in them.
I've used/tested Evolution for several months now, and was looking for a way to get it to play nicely with my current mail setup, fetchmail + procmail + mutt.
What I found worked best is this: make a virtual folder in Evolution for your mail, go to the directory that Evolution created for it (~/Evolution/local/... I think ), delete the mbox file there and replace it with a soft link to your existing Inbox.
With that setup I can use Evolution when I feel like using the GUI and having the extras it provides, and I can use mutt every other time (for quick messages, ssh connections, etc).
Gimp 2.0 uses a little over 28MB with two 640x480 images open (10MB of which appears to be scriptfu stuff)

It's also used effectively in Cory Doctorow's "Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom." Wuffie!
The cost of a license for commercial development is not a valid argument.
Doch! Perhaps not for large software companies, but for small time developers, a free SDK is obviously a huge plus.

The apache package has been renamed to httpd.
