same here - rdiff-backup is a complete no brainer for small scripted backups. Try Boxbackup as well - a little more work to set up, but it's got a native windows client that works well and is easy to manage for a larger install.
There is still a ton of overlap - most hams I know are interested in both 'hobbies'. I like the comparison though - I think there will always be a group of people who love technology for it's own sake and will be very innovative simply because they're not out just to make a buck.
All sorts of things seem to be illegal but that doesn't really stop anyone.
In Minnesota, junk faxes and automated calling (where the answering machine calls you) is apparently illegal. Yet I get a ton of that stuff. What needs to happen is for a significant number of people to start calling their attourney general to stop companies from doing this stuff.
Would this mean that AOL could potentially pull the same stunt with other excellent Nullsoft items. I assume that anything released under the GPL before the buyout is good to go. Can they stop anyone from using code that was released post buyout?
I Agree - most reviews I see lean way too far in the political direction and don't say much about what I will actually see. It's also great to know what I will have problems with.
I've been wanting to play with one of the LX chips for a while, but their development kit is too spendy for me at the moment. Is there an easy homebrew way to use these without a ton of specialized mounting equipment and a machine built PCB board?

I tried a few domains and got the Verisign page, but now the 'feature' seems to be missing. Did they backtrack already?

What does this mean for open beos people?? I would hope the YellowTAB people could keep their source somewhat in the open ala OSX at least.
