I noticed that everyone got hung up on the DVR part of the post, not the complete post which is a DVR specifically made for a security system. My department is looking into this solution which looks pretty complete.
I work for 4 k-12 schools and it's taken me 2-1/2 years to convince two of them to switch to color laserjets for all printing instead of b&w laserjets and inkjets for color. The politics and arguments to get a switch to happen is staggering. Even with all the research and documentation on the net and doing calculations using the factory "pages per inktank/toner cartridge", it wasn't like leading a horse to water. It was like holding the horse's head under water and it still wouldn't drink.... damn horses..
At this time, wouldn't Gnutella be considered the best example of a bazaar project? Given up *forceablely, I might add* by it's creators, and now steered by a collection of people attempting to add new platforms and options. It would be interesting to see how Gnutella would have developed with the original people guiding the project, as opposed to how it is currently developing.
A VPN and a home network are two completely different things. A virtual private network is connecting a computer or LAN to another computer or LAN across public, ie the Internet, wotj encrypted connections. A home network is using a computer/LinkSys/router to share your single broadband connection. What @Home is describing is the VPN. However, for my Charter Pipeline *cable modem server*, the agreement wording is such that I can't run a home network either. I suspect the @Home agreement is similar.
You're correct, a VPN is "Virtual" Private Network which allows a computer or a LAN to connect to another computer or LAN across public "ie the Internet" connections usually with encrypted traffic. It seems like most people posting are confusing a home network with a virtual private network.
