"I'm an MCSE + MCSD + CCNA + LCA getting an RHCE soon, and still looking for work. And I'm barely a 'pro'. So if you're threatened by a high-schooler, take that as a message."
Whats the message? That you paied for all that testing? I'm a highschool dropout feeding 5 mouths as a sysadmin. Personaly I haven't a need for MCSE + MCSD + CCNA + LCA + RHCE but starting my business in high-school has made me well known in my area as the "repair kid." Plus I'm able to laugh at inexperianced, overcertified, outawork M$ cronnies everywhere.
Ben Franklin, only went to highschool for 2 years and then quit his aprenticeship at 17 to start on his own, with hard work & study he became a very respected business man. Or it might have just been him printing all those perty $100's!
Kinda like pro sports. Paid so other wannabe(noobs) players can learn. Hehe I wanna be a pro MMORPG player. I CAN FINALY BE A JOCK! Where do we get a cool lettered jacket I want a rpk patch!
From my experiance most "wheel" mice have functionality to press the 3rd button(wheel) and your presented with a sort of panning scroll. SO how does adding more moving parts to a mouse help? I prefer as little hand movement as possible, I propose a vim mouse!
Wiki's are great tools for colaberation. You could structure it easly so everyone has there own "Free write" space and project space and mabe add a scratch board that everyone may take part adding to. build in a version tracker and you as well as talented students could be editors for "The project". yadda yadda I hated english, spell check is my freind. =P
Teaching it is not OOo's major drawback, its like the first post said. I for one have been actively converting our office to OOo for about 3 months now. For some users its great they type memos, letterhead and envelopes. For others they have literaly thousands of.doc's and only a small percentage of these will actually convert and not loose data and or formating. The spreadsheet app rarely and barely works. It screws up printing, it looses odbc conectivity, I see images loose data, and alot of other weird things. I hate to say it but it can't hold a candle to M$'s Excel.
Terrorists camp: "Go B" "GO B" "Go B" "howd they kill me so fast?!" "Shit Bubba, broke his leg!" "leave him, there comming!" "But hes got the bomb!" "take it" Bubba: "No, ill be ok, im still at 50%, there just n00bz you know"
You can!!! Just screw up your credit line Like me, you'll never have to worry about credit applications showing up in you mail ever again.
On the other hand I get too much, Bad Credit? Low Credit? No Credit at all? With this ez application our professional credit councelors can help you establish good credit in almost no time at all( in which I'd expect the flood of CC apps again).
If you really want to know the truth about squirrels ask someone from VillePlatte,La They get off work and school for opening day. But then if global warming hits Louisiana like its aparently hitting canada all our squirrels will be dead after one 150 degree summer. Got to 115 here last year.
"I don't think it is wise to call a "first beta" product a viable alternative to NT4, which is proven and tested"
If the SAMBA Team were to follow M$ standards it would be a "Full version" release.
They would hide all its faults and issue service packs upon public awareness.
IMHO Windows 95 shoulda be 4.0a
Windows 98 shoulda been 4.0b 2000 shoulda been released as v4.0 XP shoulda been an expansion pack.
I have the password to my box and it is a neet box but hardly worth keeping unless another ISP uses the "telocity" method. The only network service on mine is a little webserver with an admin interface that allows you to change the route(NIC, USB, parallel), reboot it , download configuration, erase downloaded configuration, or Erase Delta Image... Anyone care to tell me how to write a delta image, or what it is anyway.
Even though the admin interface has parallel as an option My box has no parallel port, but if you open it up the board has a spot for one if you care to solder it on. I was working on replaceing the box with a Linux router since telocity actualy gave 2 static ip's for $50 a month.
My X2 is just fine. Its had quite a few ocassions that required a rebooting(a cron, an HTTP auth/command") but other than that it served its pourpose well.
It seariously could be true. For 2 years I worked in the underwater survey field and as you might remember from old sumbarine movies those audible pings are used to calculate depth. These days subs and regular vessels even, use multibeam sonars, which calculate depths by waiting for ping returns and measureing everything. Departure angles of the sound, simple harmonic signal, amplitude, phase, period, frequency, quadrature components, phasor, phase advance and delay,wavelength, narrow and wide bandwith, just to name a few. To do this through wire would be much more simple, as you do not have to account for sound speed reductions/increases due to temprature, preasure, or salinity(if in salt water). ping would be cool
Screw it so you didnt tell them you needed upfront payment, now turn the tides Bill em and see if their as nice as you. If they pay GREAT! If not dont make a fuss out of it.

Are you suggesting an asteroid larger than earth is headed this way?
Last time I checked we had enough fire power to destroy the earth ourselves.
Hows about aiming those nukes at the inevitable asteroid.
