  1. Re:Better Advertising method.... on iVillage Renounces Pop-up Advertising · · Score: 2, Interesting

    it is very easy to buy ads on google. But 20$ on google brought less traffic to my site than a 10$ ad at K5.

  5. RAID5 on Win2000 on Hardware IDE/SCSI RAID for Windows 2000 Servers? · · Score: 1

    I myself am running sucsefully a RAID5 system based on the software solution of Win2K.

    I use 5 Maxtor 60GB drives (don't ask me for the type, I am too drunken to remember) having a redundant failsave 120GB online.

    It's fast enough for my pr0n collection and I allready had a harddrive failure, so I just exchanged the drive by a new one with a harddisk of the same type (my vendor exchanged it without asking) and all I had to do was a right-click and 'enable' in the drive-manager.

    I just like it to have the opportunity to create a RAID5 system by software without worries about controlers, harddisks, drivers, etc.

    Yes, sure, software-based allways is slower than hardware-based, so I wouldn't use it in a webserver (especially if it could get slashdotted). But it's fine for a fileserver in your company as (backup-)server or for your machine at home.

    I only ensured to use 5 identical HDs...

  6. Lifetime? on Light-Emitting Polymer Displays · · Score: 2, Informative

    according to this (rather old (2001)) paper, lifetime of polymer dislpays is around 10.000 hours against usual TFTs living around 50.000 hours.

    Let's assume they doubled it since 2001, its 20.000 hours.

    Unless they produce them for the half of the costs of usual TFTs, I wouldn't like to throw away my TV every 2 1/3 years...

    Pilots get trained to report 'hidden' that they were hijacked to the flight security. This did not happen what is a sign for the good 'education' of the hijackers. And it may be a sign that they killed the pilots.
