  1. Re:Just what we need... on Building a Town-Wide LAN? · · Score: 1

    unless they are running you through a proxy server (which I doubt) there is no server that effecting your speed. Please learn networking and then tell us "Just what we need..."

  2. Re:I can think of something on Apartments for Techies? · · Score: 1

    This is where the problem lies... there aren't enought techies in a concentrated area to get the things that we all want like....

    1. Mt. Dew/Beer despenser in every room
    2. Maid service (the kind that look like models)
    3. Community access Divx movie server
    4. Gig connections to each room
    (This is the biggest thing.. if you could get enough techies in one area you wouldn't need to access outside the building to get anything since there would already be hundreds of copies of the new linux distro right there on your network.) Anyone up for taking over a small city? It could be called "Hacker Town" and soon other towns would crop up around it like "FBI Town", "NSA Town", and "CIA Town" so you know we would have the best telecom infrastructure around.

  3. Re:Move to �rebro in Sweden on Apartments for Techies? · · Score: 1

    Ok... I just started looking for a job that I can work from home... If I ever get 100mb/s connection I'll stay home and guard it with my life... :-)

  4. Re:What a great idea! on Apartments for Techies? · · Score: 1

    I can get a atm ds3 that the building could use for voice and data running 45mb/s for roughly $4k per month...

  5. just to take the dream a step further.... on Apartments for Techies? · · Score: 1

    Apartment community features that I would want to see on the list...

    1. divx server
    2. quake server
    3. unreal server
    4. mp3 server

    It would also make it so much nicer to see 1000mb/s on gnutella when I pull from my neighbor instead of the typical 15kb/s from the guy down road.
