"5. CRTs side by side create magnetic interferance and distort each other"
Doh. Aren't bigger more expensive CRT's shielded to prevent that?
No matter how well CRTs are shielded, if they use same frequency (e.g. when connected to one videocard) - they will interference each other. Connecting them to different videocards helps a lot.
I ran a 17" and a 15" CRT on my desktop for several years but recently I have switched back to just running one. Why? Even if it saves me $1 on my electric bill (it actually saves a bit more than that) it's beneficial.
You could run TWO 17" LCD monitors and use less than that one 17" CRT you have.
You have not been to Russia evidently. Almost every company here is at least partially illegal. I can't speak for them all, but that's just what I see here. None of the stores sell legal software either. (Maybe different cities of Russia are different? Where have you been?)
I live in Russia. And I said big companies, meaning 2000+ or more employees, and in big cities (with population of million people or more)
Usual practice, though, is to buy one copy of windows or Office and install it to everybody's computers:-)
In Russia, everyone owns a pirated version of Windows. Getting a legal version is impossible. The huge stores all sell illegal copies.
Getting a legal version is possible. Most big companies in big cities buy legal versions, being threatened by BSA/whatever. But Joe The Home User rather spend $3 for pirated version that sold at every corner than will bother seeking legal one for $100.
https (SSL Certs) use MD5SUM's don't they? What if they're going to try and attack the cert root authorities.
No sane certificate root authority will keep its private key reachable online. And if the hackers stole CA keys - what can they do? Fake some https websites?
And it is MD5 hashing algorithm, not MD5SUMs. And it's being replaced by SHA anyway.
It may have something to do with backwards compatibility with Windows 9x. In that case, yes, the application probably could have littered itself with millions of 'if (WindowsVersion >= 4) SafeFunction() else UnsafeFunction() calls, each of which would have killed performance dead.
wrap (Un)safeFunction() with MyFunction() and you're set.
And one "if" is nothing compared to Windows API call, so it cannot "kill perfomance".
I'm running Debian unstable on a libretto 50CT with only 75MHz processor and 32 Mb of memory. Blackbox, rxvt and "links -g". Oh, and 16-bit WiFi card:-)
0.01 is available from kernel.org, and is dated from the fall of 1991. With headers and everything, 'wc' reports that the entire thing is less than 7500 lines. (That includes blank lines, comments, lines with a single brace, etc.)

Here is word-to-word translation (english is not my mother tongue):
As SecurityLabz was informed, in May 13, 2004 all source code of Cisco IOS 12.3, 12.3t was stolen. Cisco IOS is used in most Cisco network products. Full size of the stolen information is about 800 MBytes archived.
Source code leak was made possible because of Cisco's corporate network compromise. Cisco gave no official comments yet.
Someone known as franz at IRC channel #darknet@EFnet showed
a small part of stolen code as the proof.
First 100 lines of source file ipv6_tcp.c and ipv6_discovery_test.c is listed below.
I had to move to the m125 because there's a glitch in PalmOS before version 3.5.2 that conflicts with certain apps running on MacOS 9.x, and the m100 can't have its OS upgraded because it's burned to ROM.
I have PalmOS patch v3.5.3 in the RAM of my m100. No need to have it in ROM - just download the patch after every hard reset (which happens once a year for me).
I really doubt I can even _install_ FreeBSD on my Libretto 50CT - I'll probably need PCMCIA CDROM drive for that. Debian unstable works like a charm though. I've installed it from windows partition.
dosemu or dosbox (which will surely be too slow as it emulates the entire cpu)
Neither DosEmu nor DosBox emulate entire CPU. They are emulating only BIOS and DOS services (API) and specific protected-mode CPU commands. All other CPU instructions are executed in native x86 mode. That's why DosEmu/DosBox work only at x86 linux - you need Bochs to emulate x86 on Alpha/ARM/etc.

Have you ever heard of salt for DES or MD5 passwords?
Not only that, but generally Windows likes mounted FATs to be valid...
Then do not use stored password/hash and check for valid FAT instead. Secure and fast. It is easy, FAT is well documented.

Like this Linksys box. It is silent and cheap and has Linux inside.
VIA C3/Eden EPIA motherboard + Mini-ITX case combo fits that role better. Why use live CD on P3 when you can use CompactFlash on C3?

But long TODO lists scare me away, I have to use NextList with them. NextList shows just a few top items from ToDo.
I even wrote MoinMoin plug-in to insert ToDo into any wiki page with macro [[NextList(N)]]

Linux v0.01 source tree:
Well, if you reflash WRT54G with this distro it WILL do OSPF and BGP routing - OpenWRT includes quagga/zebra.

No it is not. Trinity is spelled "troyitsa" in Russian.
Buy an USB->RS-232 converter for $5 and be happy. That's why USB hubs exist for.
nearly all newer motherboards can boot from USB, one way or another. At least there are 'Boot from USB ZIP drive' or 'Boot from USB floppy' options.

We use it at our 50+ PC routers.
