  1. Put the phone on the ground and back away ... on Ask Slashdot: Best Smartphone Plan For a US Vacation? · · Score: 1

    Seriously, if you are going hiking or camping, put the phone away. The Pacific Northwest is a beautiful place that should be enjoyed

    Unfortunately, the vast majority of oil co's are Microsoft shops.

    Not when it comes to data processing. Plenty are using Linux clusters for heavy duty data crunching.
    Most of the data processing houses also use Linux clusters.

    Look at http://www.top500.org/ and see how many are oil and gas/seismic data processing related.

    Just my $0.02.

    Wired connection is best if you are going to stream video. I am running it on a G wireless network and that is great for MP3 and pics.

    Web browsing is OK and it supports AIM. I have the wireless keyboard and that works pretty well.

    All in all, I am pretty happy with it. I am not sure what the complaints were about, but if you can set up any wireless device on a network, this is a piece of cake.

    Try ebay for the best price.

  18. Prismiq on How Do You Handle Home Media? · · Score: 1

    I just bought one on ebay for $120.

    http://www.prismiq.com/

    It handles video (MPEG1/2/4, Motion MPEG, AVI and Divx), audio (MP3, WMA and WAV), images (JPEG, GIF, PNG), etc. It has both a Winblows and a Linux Media Server and can be connected via a wireless or wired connection.

    Best thing is that it runs Linux. ;-)
