The pain, when will it stop
Sony Music and Sony Electronics are different corprate entities owned by Sony. As different entities, they act, or should act, entirely out of self-interest.
I run MS Windows on my laptop and Linux on my web server and desktop. MS crap is good for some stuff and I am sure many Slashdot readers use it now and again.
When I clicked the crash link,Explorer crashed but then relaunched all by itself. First time I have ever seen that happen. Running IE 6 on 2000 pro. guess I have to fire up Mo*illa to see what the lines of html are.

And why should they? The race was in Baltimore last weekend. Boulder has a race in May. When they report on the race in Boulder should they mention that there was a race in Baltimore a few weeks ago?
How are these sensors powered? From reading the article I would assume that they draw there power from a central battery of sorts. And why would you want a sensor network in your bedroom? I am thinking they are something like a bunch of small video cameras... No?

Yes, there is a problem getting bandwidth to hotspots. I run a wireless "hotspot" in Baltimore which serves a two block area. If I were to bump to a T1 I would need about 50 monthly subscribers to cover costs and a small profit. In order to do this I need to expand my range which means I need to set up additional acess points. The problem is that where the acess points need to be is not line of site to my base station so I would have to have a wired conection to each point or have a series of repeaters. This isn't practicle or cost effective. If I could set up an 802.16 base pushing bandwidth to five or six 802.11b acess points then I could run them all off of one T1 line and put them in locations where they need to be.
As I write this I am looking at a 730.8MB hard drive. I remember the first time I installed one that big and I remember thinking that was all I would need for the next five years. I didn't know then what I was going to put on it and I don't know now what I am going to put on my cell/PDA five years from now. (rounding the numbers and guessing wildly) 1993 1GB HD. What I thought I would need 2003 40GB HD. What I need 2003 12GB Flash. What I think I will need 2013 12x40==480GB What I will need
Don't ask me what for. Me looks at partition... I'm guessing porn...
Perhaps it had something to do with Cheney and perhaps it didn't. What I do know was that in my six years in the U.S. Army I ran into Brown and Root (Halliburton)on every deployment I went on. During this period,Clinton was in the White House.
Yes, since we all were using Corel Linux at the time, come to think of it who actually ever used Corel Linux, someone had to, I just don't know who.
My mom has a copy with a Corel Linux book on the shelf at home. Still shrink wraped though.
I asked her about it and she said she wanted to learn about "that Linux stuff" we were always talking about. Funny thing is the computer she uses every day runs SuSE. We set it up for her a few years back and one of us does updates whenever we go back home.
Does anyone know the best way of charging a minimal fee for 802.11 access?
When I first moved to Baltimore I had to get a busness account to get decent service. In order to pay for it I wired all my neighbors and we split the cost. I have recently gone wireless so that the people accross the street could get on the network. I would like to be able to let people who are passing through use the network but at the same time don't want to open the network up completly. I would love to be able to charge a couple dollars an hour for service but I have no idea how to implement that.

You know it's bad when you find out about this on Slashdot and it went right past your house...
Me wonders what I did Friday night...
I don't know about Boulder, but here in Baltimore the harbor is rather nasty. Cold too.
without mention of the Boulder Kinetics race

Can you imagine how much it would suck to have to have a diferent card for personal and comercial networks?

Less then twenty posts and I get this:
"The server is too busy at the moment. Please try again later."
now a blue screen would have been funny...
A small pressurised canister of explosive liquid... I wonder what the FAA will say about taking these things on airplanes.
There's a key brokenon my laptop. I'm sure you can figure out which one.
Very hard to come by these days, though...

You said you're willing to pay, right?

You don't own the music on the cd either. Got recipts for all your cds?
3. Even if they did deep and sell it cheap they'll only undermine their own dwindling CD sales.
If they sold mp3s cheap and it undermined CD sales, it would show that free mp3s undermine CD sales. (Ceteris Paribus)
If, as many think, downloading music increases sales, there would be no detremental effect on CD sales.
What they are doing now is not working.
Price mp3s at $.10 ea and find out.
