  1. Re:Young People. on The Future of IT in America? · · Score: 1

    True. On the East Coast they know that you are:
    1. Disciplined
    2. Trained
    3. Possible Security Clearance
    4. Mature

    On the West Coast (specifically Northwest) they know that:
    1. You Have No degree
    2. No Commercial Experience. DoD Experience doesn't count.
    3. Repeat 1 & 2

    So if you're going to get out...
    Get a job with a DoD contractor FIRST!!
    Then spread out into other sectors...

  2. Previous Works on McAfee Granted Far-Reaching Spam-Control Patent · · Score: 2, Informative

    Hmmm...

    I distinctly remember utilizing VirusX on the Amiga in the EARLY 90s. Along with many other virus tools of the 80s...

  3. Previous Work on Microsoft Receives Patent For Double-Click · · Score: 1

    Hmmm....

    Previous work exists in GemStar's Graphical environment. :)
    Maybe even some of the Amiga Workbenches can predate this.

    Gotta give them the credit for trying though...

    HELLO...

    Prior to any of this WWW stuff we had the compu-serve and prodigy networks. If I remember right they had something similar to this in the middle 80's.

    It isn't rocket science after all...

  6. K12-Linux Project on Linux & Education - How To Get It For Your School · · Score: 1
    http://plug.northwest.com/k12.htm

    K12Linux Project:

    Several members of the Portland Linux Unix Group have volunteered to assist local schools in the Portland OR Metro area in installing and configuring computers with the Linux operating system and related free software.

    The project is our way of saying thanks to Riverdale School. The school is very generous in providing a facility for a monthly Linux Clinic. Riverdale also proves to be a great example of how schools can cost effectively solve problems when entering the Internet.

    More information can be found at The Linux Educational Needs Posting Pages.

    Communicate with us:

    Enough PLUG members have volunteered for us to seriously get started. However, we are always looking for more volunteers and interested parties to join us!

    To join the mailing list, send e-mail to majordomo@riverdale.k12.or.us with the message "subscribe k12linux". You will then receive a welcome message describing how to use the mailing list.

    You can help:

    If you would like to volunteer your time and skills, please send e-mail to David W. Palmer dwpalmer@teleport.com with the following information:
    1. How can you help best?
      • What would you like to do?
      • What experience do you have?

    2. What time commitment can you make to the project?

    This information helps us establish reasonable expectations of what we can provide. Of course, if you are on the mailing list, you can jump in at any time! As with Linux, our greatest strength is the diversity of people we bring together for the project.
