I watched Prof. Jeff Erickson swipe three times before the reader finally recognized him. The elevators fried for a few hours the other night too. It'll all be nice and pretty in a few months.
The housing administration can administer new cards, for those students that lose them. Until these cards are completed, students are given replacement cards to use for meals at the dining halls. Are you sure that is the only thing encoded?
Probably the same as, well, all the other buildings looked after 5-10 years.
In any case, who cares about the architecture? It wasn't meant to be a work of art. It looks fine on its own, and I'm sure the College of Engineering will do their best to maintain it, just like they do with the rest of their campus.
By the way, most of the file cabinets, desks, etc. were brought over from the Digital Computer Laboratory right across the street, and most of those looked like they were in the building during "HAL's" time.
I would much rather spend $300-$400 on CDs to burn whatever I would stick onto 400GB of space than shell out the cash for this beast, only for it to die on me unexpectedly.
Yeah, it'll be great for those of you out there who are downloading fiends(though that is unlikely what Hitachi had in mind as to the uses of the new HDD) and for other specialty tasks. You might still want to backup though...

"...SCO, a small Utah-based software maker suing International Business Machines Corp. over the use of code for the Linux operating system, has been the target of denial-of-service attacks in the past by apparent pro-Linux protesters..."
Awfully boring compared to the BBC article, isn't it? It's too bad that something like this needs to be "sexed up" for people to actually pay attention.
The characters you've come up with to use as our "proud" tradition are all people whose political opinions most Americans don't give a damn about. Henry Ford? He should have stuck to making cars. The same goes with Edison and his inventions. Nixon? We impeached him because we found out he was a crook, remember? Louis Farrakhan? I don't even know if his own race takes him seriously, let alone any others. Anyone with half a mind wouldn't listen to these extremist opinions.
The 1930s, eh? Not exactly representative or our time. Remember, it was thirty years later when African-Americans were struggling with civil rights battles. I'm damn proud of how far it has gotten them, too, though there is still a lot of work to be done.
Everyone has people in their culture who have unpleasant opinions of other races and religions. It's just a matter of whether you feel they are important enough to listen to.

I can't wait to be inside and hear Gaia (is that "her" official name?) start babbling about sending error reports to Microsoft..
I'm graduating, so I don't have to switch over. Suckers..ha!

The only computers I've used so far run LynxOS. Of course, they haven't moved everything in yet...

Nintendo IS confusing and pretentious. Their marketing staff is doing a good job, given that fact.
