Sure, that can be added to the code if you want, but its rather redundant because by the time it actually prompts the user for a new volume name, its too late.
At least with my code the user can come up with a wittier name than INFECTED for the volume.
Technically, if the partition was recently formatted, it is no longer infected... as Windows is gone.
One of my old roommates had a setup with one of these mice on his PC.
He setup the Mac mouse as his normal mouse, with a USB extension cable to reach his computer, and had a second mouse (PS2) sitting on the floor which he used as a right mouse button by tapping the button with his foot... all in all he still had 2 buttons, and his mouse glowed:)...feeling bored? try mass genocide
But wait... no... that's wrong...

Had Mr. Malda merely left it at the altered stance on Slashvertisements [slashdot] we could have all had our good laugh (at the ones who fell for it) and continued with our lives.
But no, now Hemos has to clean up the mess and exact sweet revenge upon our tortilla-wrapped friend. I wonder what may24 will hold... Maybe CmdrTaco's beer won't be se free.
I think this makes total sense.
x86 processors vary on the speed at which they run.
Since with mainframes they are bought for their speed and reliability, with the reliability being stable, the speed is the only part that varys.
Because of this it makes sense to price the mainframe based on speed. If you're benchmarking the price against speed, then that's what you count when shipping...
If you sell a mainframe that does 1.26*10^4 mips, then you shipped 1.26*10^4 mips, right?
I personally would assume not.
Playing a game really doesn't require that much time... as long as you can pause or minimize it when the boss walks by.
If, however, your boss walks by and instead of seeing logs being tailed endlessly (making it look like you're doing work is immeasurably more fun than actually doing said 'work') he sees that pesky little start button... you might as well clean out your desk.
I have used VNC before, and not only does it support acceptable refresh rates over a broadband connection, but it also had built in support for connectiong over a java client (if enabled) through its own server. Because of this you can access it anywhere that you can open a browser. I highly recommend it.
Remote Administrator ($hareware I believe) is also quite good.
I used it for a project when I was in school... My friend and I set up a VPN between two networks and a roaming host (my laptop on a dialup connection).
To display most of our data, as we required three internet connections (two networks + roaming host), we left our main setups at our houses and connected to them over Remote Administrator.
It worked well and we received 98% on our presentation.
Where I work all we use is Mylex cards for both 4 and 6 drive raid-5 implementations.
We use IBM drives, but because of bad experiences lately (6 of them blowing up) we've recently switched to Seagate Cheetahs
U have to drop your kernel down (we run stably under 2.2.12, and have had problems getting it to work on 2.2.18)
but if you're running on linux-based servers, mylex is the way to go
You can get both 32 and 64 bit PCI cards, and at only about 3-4 grand CDN a pop... it isn't that costly for a hardware RAID-5
With a little bit of ingenuity and good old-fashioned coding you can already make a box screen calls from your ex (caller id), monitor expiry dates (simple database, possibly + barcode reader), and 'reprogram' your TV (TiVO?)
Add to that a complicated mess of actuators and hydraulics (robotic arms) and it can easily make your bed and take out the trash. With a soundcard you can make the computer say anything you ask it to, and leaps and bounds have been made in the field of simulated AI chat programs.
and how about something that regulates seratonin/dopamine levels?

No matter how much security tehy put on such a system, it is still very vulnerable at a hardware level...
Obviously for something like this they wouldn't use a wireless solution for datacommunication... as that is very easily read by anyone with a reciever (although transmission on said backbone is more difficult)
Even a buried cable/fiber link is still vulnerable however, someone could easliy add a reader somewhere in the middle of the thousand-mile long cable running through the plains of southren US, even passive readers are easily available which do not require cutting the link and, since they draw no power from the line (the read the radiation given off by it) they are nearly indetectable...
I think this unhackable network idea of bush's is worse than normal internet communications, because at least with the internet, someone trying to find data has to sift through terabytes of data from regular users to get at the sensitive gov't data...
personally if I were a data miner I'd have a lot easier job if I knew all the traffic on a line was useable...
With the advent of NDAs being signed many times over by any professional at pretty much every company on the face of the planet... this may be a more difficult answer to find than you think.
I can tell you that my company uses linux for our servers, but we only have around 75 or 100gb of financial data in our databases
11 digit numbers really aren't hard to remember...
In Toronto, Ontario, phone numbers are ten digit... i.e. the area code is required to make a local phone call...
I'm sure many of the major US cities, most of which are larger than Toronto either have already or will soon adopt this policy... it really isn't a problem...
the security/privacy issues however, are almost as numerous as the amount of serious bugs in Win2k

The Library of Congress just isn't big enough anymore. The question is, do we need more books? or less genes?
