Yeah, wouldn't it be cool since it's already trivial? Howso? Start installing some distro that configures hardware after setting up all the software and rebooting. I've done it with Lindows on my laptop since I lack a hard drive, and it doesn't take much longer than subsequent boots.

Hey now, plenty of, er, people on MTV(Monkey Tube Viewers) have a lot of talent. Just like I have a lot of talent for hacking government servers. It's the complete lack of any skills that's a problem. Luckily for me, I don't waste my talent getting arrested, or making a fool of myself on international television, for that matter.
You mean you don't have a couple hundred bookmarks like everyone else? If I went through ALL my bookmarks, without going to work or school, or sleeping, I'd be able to do it in, oh, a week.
From what I recall, the judge is unlikely to award more than 10% of the claim, and the lawyers will probably get 10-25% of what is awarded. As for the $5 per banner issued. That's not per impression nor per user; anyone with a decent grasp of English should know that it is for every banner provided by Bonzi, wether seen or not, and regardless of how often it was seen. Otherwise people might go out looking to be 'impressed' just to raise the charge, making it a frivolous and untrackable lawsuit. OTOH there is a chance that almost every American citizen has seen these ads(to the sum of about $100-130+ billion, as stated elsewhere.) which could get the same hit.
That may be so in Milwaukee, and as far over as in madison, but you East-wisconsiners are lucky(I know, I used to be one with sprint) It's well-crowded over in the west, and very few options are available(I can get US Cell or AllTel(now that they bought CenturyTel) not to mention the simple lack of towers in many areas around here. And a lot of people have phones because they all drive 30-40 miles to work or school or a friend's house. So it's getting worse, fast. UScell is now switching WI to CDMA and the only real benefit of it: more phones/band/tower.
Not in my experience. I've had 95 drivers not work on 98 but on SE or ME, 98SE not work on 95, 98 OR ME, ME not work on 98 or SE or 95 and none of which work on NT, which don't always work on 2k. Can't think of what they were, unfortunately, but winmodem drivers come to mind, and I'm not using NT(pre-2k) or 98 currently(or trying to swap drivers around any longer.) A number of drivers are cross-platform(95 or even 3.1 through to ME) but certainly not all. Not when they depend on extensions normally only included with a certain release.
I've got it first-hand testimonial(a local has an rf-connector/amplifier fixation and he had to pull some hardware for such an FCC violation.)
Somebody complained about interference and they found the broadc-er leak.
True, it's fast most of the time but it does seem to have severe problems with link in the/. articles. The just take forever to load...</i>
I propose that this comment be modded to some negative value as Lies, Pure Lies. I can attest that Opera is loading/. links awfully quick and I have over ten such open on it right now(I'm ID as Exploder 5.0 for compatibility with Stupidity) which I can vouch is not possible(for me) in Mozilla(RC2; yet) for any great length of time without freezing(and plenty of my 512MB ram being free.)
Same thing keeping people from distribamiting Suse ISOs that aren't readily available from Suse as ISOs.
Apparently, since Suse says in they 'come buy me' blurb even says you can redistribute it, free, withouth litigation or license fees. And yet nobody but warez groups have the ISOs that I have seen.
Why? My guess is out of respect. Respect, despite wanting, free, the Leinenkugel of OS, that its creators do have developers, service providers, and possibly advertisers to pay, and the only way to get it means people who pay for the distro. So they buy and copy for some friends who ask for it, but don't use Speedy Universal Electronic Distribution(SUED:) via internet, before the originators say ok.
Respect. The belief that something that may help provide a free future is worth spending a couple hours of money to someone making an effort to provide it.
I think I've said this before, but with Slow Dialup in southwestern Wisconsin(only thing available at my home, but not half a mile away, except for satellite) and my typical(constant) average of 2KB/sec, I go to 4 gigabytes down/month. If I were to push it to constant downloading, that could go as high as 12. Now if they hold the meter to their own newsgroups equally, that means if 1GB=$2, I would pay $48 a month, for dialup! in addition to whatever 'connect' fee they put for just having me connected. I've seen metered DSL providers(in an area similar only due to Ameritech) push as high as $61/GB(.06/MB) over a 2GB limit, with $60 access. On that I, as a dialup user, would have to pay as little as $121 and as much as $670!! A month! For dialup! If dialup were metered for bandwidth, which(bandwidth) is apparently cheap in comparison. Though I'm sure their rates would have dropped, if they did it soon enough to not go out of business. If I pay $60/month for access, as it is, I expect to get my $60 worth: a cap of 38GB/month. Given that I pay $1 to be able to get 0.633GB Anything more($) is price-fixing based on a small demand for big bandwidth; a rate higher than dialup.
Well if you lived in Wisconsin(like me) you would realize that sometimes, you don't have anywhere to pull off and stop for as long as an hour(60 miles.) That's fine for me, because I live here: I don't know anybody who can't wait a while:) And how come nobody told me about the Kyocera 6035 when I could still use Sprint?(And I <i>sold</i> Sprint service.)
If my cable ISP(ie: if I had one) set a limit THAT low, I'd switch same day and hope that they didn't hide a backcharge clause on me. I was looking at DSL for my area once with a max on $60/mo at 2GB I'm still on dialup because I am exceeding that limit already, to the point where I, a dialup user, might sometimes have a $100-$150/mo bill to shell out at $.06/MB(What that isp would have charged on DSL) Now I'm on POV-up because I can't get anything else for less than a start cost of about $700.

If you'd ever played RO, you would know that there are no voices. The biggest problem is increasing numbers of misspelled words.

Incidentally, you can't spell.

Are ye all retarded? If the bike supplies AC current, use a transformer to raise the voltage, and sent that into the laptop's existing power adapter!
