    Nice and all, but what I need is a way to keep a 3COM Corebuilder 3500 layer 3 switch quite. The dang things keeping me up at night.

  3. Bleh, too big. on Sony-Ericsson P900 Released · · Score: 1

    I think I like the Nokia 3650 better. Smaller lower res screen but its cell phone size. This thing looks like its bigger then my PDA.

  4. Re:What I like about it on Sony-Ericsson P900 Released · · Score: 1
    This is just the Symbian SDK using the borland compiler. You dont realy get to use the interface builder to make the app. Whats more the SDK for Visual Studio is a bit better right now.

    That being said I'm going to a Borland/Nokia dev con next month where I'll get the new version of the dev kit which uses C++BuilderX and is suposed to be much better.

    When I click on a link in Mozilla it opens in Mozilla but IE is my default browser.

    Given that MSN is IE based what did you expect the links to open in?

  6. Re:You get what you pay for. on SCSI vs. IDE In The Real World · · Score: 1

    DLT? You heathen, go with AIT. I even use it at home (ok so its AIT-1, but 70GB per tape is good enough give the 160MB/min write speed).

  7. Re:SCSI vs. IDE: Same experiences on SCSI vs. IDE In The Real World · · Score: 1

    Whats more SCSI can reorder to commands to optimize head movment. So if you have FILE1:FILE3:FILE2 on your drive IDE will have to hit the first file, then the second and then move the head back to the third one while SCSI can see that reading the third file before the second would be faster and optimize the head movement on the fly.

    I like hoe you trimed the term "most" from my statment. Or are you going to claim that most Palm powered PDAs are not running at 160x160x4bpp? Of course you can get higher res and larger screens. The point is that these phones do not make half bad PDAs.

    The screens on the Nokia series 60 phones is 176x208x12bpp and larger then most Palm screens which run at 160x160x4bpp.

  10. Re:Yeah, so? on Death of the PDA? · · Score: 1

    The Nokia series 60 phones (nGage, 3650, 3600, 6600, etc) run the symbian OS and have basic PDA functonality as well as the ability to run third party software. They even have built in blue tooth so syncing to a desktop system is a snap. However, they cost a bit. If you dont want the built in digital camera they are not realy worth the price.

  11. Re:PDAs are not for all types of people on Death of the PDA? · · Score: 1

    I use my high end iPaq PDA which I built out of several broken ones to keep track of my D&D charictors. But then again, I'm a bit of a geek.

    Acording to Panasonic it does, but hey, what do they know. I've used both iBooks and Tough Books. The Tough Books are much MUCH tougher. However most people have no use for that. However there is no other notebook that I'll go hiking/kayaking with.

    Do you even know what civil disobedience is? Its not breaking the law and then acting shocked when you get arrested/sued. Its not breaking the law and then bitching about it on slashdot. Its when you break the law and are willing to pay the consequences in the hopes that you're position will be recognized by the general public who will then work to get the laws changed.

    You want to protest copywrite laws through civil disobedience? Great, then here's what you do. Share gigabytes of songs, get sued, refuse to pay and go to jail. Do not bitch about how unfair it is, you knew what you where doing and you knew the consequences. Just go quietly to jail and your supporters on the outside can start making "free TyrranzzX tee-shirts".
