I have an Epson 8088 with a 20MB hard drive and CGA graphics. I'm pretty sure its modem is 2400 baud but that was a latter addition. It still makes an excellent Frogger machine.
I would have to think it's about 20 years old but it was a gift from my parents to my sister and me for Christmas and I have no recollection of what year that was.
I went to a Jesuit high school and had a fairly progressive priest as a teacher for a required ethics class. A student asked what he thought about reconciling creationism with modern science and his answer was basically the above. Who put the stuff there to start the big bang? What was before the big bang?
Personally, I much prefer the Ramen that comes in the bag instead of the styrofoam cup. For whatever reason, it tastes better; there are more noodles; and it's cheaper. Also, unless you dump out your Cup-O-Noodles--defeating the purpose of the styrofoam--it's much easier to customize the bagged noodles.
Second it is suicide only with older US aircraft....
Most older aircraft, yes, but it was possible and did happen with an F4:
Once again, he met the MiG-17 head-on, this time with an offset so he couldn't fire his guns. As he pulled up vertically he could again see his determined adversary a few yards away. Still gambling, Cunningham tried one more thing. He yanked the throttles back to idle and popped the speed brakes, in a desperate attempt to drop behind the MiG. But, in doing so, he had thrown away the Phantom's advantage, its superior climbing ability. And if he stalled out...
The MiG shot out in front of Cunningham for the first time....
"He now spends two-thirds of his time working on products...a line of futuristic watches unveiled last month...."
Does anyone know anything about these watches?
I like the idea behind Timex's pager watch but they are a pain in the a$$ to use. I wonder if it's possible for Microsoft to actually improve something.
I remeber reading this article in the fall or thereabouts of 1998. I would think that CNN would come up with a more updated version of this article and not just run it again to be part of the recent hacker fad. When MTV has done a special on something ("I've been hacked" -Serena Altchul when she really just forgot her password) then it is really mainstream. CNN has just tarnished their image with this re-post in my opinion.

That's no good.
I've got a running 8088 with 20 MB HD. Plays Frogger and Dig Dug really well.
First $8,000 gets it.
Why don't the IDers slip in a different spin:

It's not definitively clarified. With a 5-4 decision and the possibility of a liberal court in the future, this ruling could get over turned.
Also, DC has not banned guns for 32 years, it has banned handguns for 32 years.
I stopped caring about LucasArts after they released Grim Fandango and then abandoned the adventure genre
I joined in late '98, I think. I'm pretty sure I have the registration email at home.
My first comment was 10/28/99. though.
Amazon has WiiPlay in stock right now. I have it. It really isn't worth it but for only $10 more than a Wiimote, it's not that bad.

Rhodes published a follow-up
Dark Sun a few years ago.
Has anyone read it? If so, how was it?
You wonder why 3PO doesn't tell Luke that they are brothers when 3PO learns who he is.
