In most offices I've worked in your monitor just has to withstand NERF darts and the occasional hacky-sack attack. I take it Ukranian office wars are a little bit more serious with their choice of weapons.
I've had no problems dragging my existing "acquired" mpeg 2 format video clips into the itunes video library, complete with sexy reflection effects. Obviously DivX, XViD the like will be a different story...
One of the main reasons ISPs in countries like Finland, Japan and South Korea are able to run these huge pipes to residential homes and not have to worry about the size of their international feeds is because a lot of content that will be fetched will be local due to the native language of the country.
As long as ISPs and co-los within the country are well connected (which is comparitively cheap to do), then users can get some real use out of these services.
Here in Australia we suffer quite a bit because we're "English"-speaking, and most of our content is served up from the United States and english-speaking European natioans. Fortunately good local content is definitely on the rise.
Did anyone else read this as Microbees Alive After Being Frozen for 32,000 Years.
Sure they were slow PCs, but damnit they'll recover from crashes eventually...
For what it's worth - I currently run Warcraft III, Quake III: Arena in native and Unreal Tournament 2004 on an emac 1.25 which is virtually identical to the mac mini. With a gig of RAM loaded up, the emac handles all 3 superbly.
I would recommend upgrading your UT2004 demo to the latest (there were several major ATI bugs in the first release which caused those terrible screen renders you are referring to). Also, stuff as much RAM into your ibook as possible. I swear, the jump from 256 to 1 gig is like doing a CPU upgrade in UT2004
The SSID of a network can be spotted when a client associates with the network. Even though the AP is set to not broadcast, the client still needs to pass it in plain text to make the initial connection.
You might have to be patient to catch it though...

You're forgetting the most important button combination: UP DOWN LEFT RIGHT A START Level select on the ipod is going to be a bitch!
World of Darkness. Maybe they could speed up development time by using the Doom 3 engine.
