I think i may go into a profession where people don't want to ask you questions. Mortician, perhaps.
I have the PCMCIA Jacket with the extra battery. I have the CF jacket. I also have the slim case. Unfortunately, I have my choice of wireless OR bluetooth OR GPS. I'm waiting for my next one to have internal G and bluetooth. If I could get an internal 40 GB Drive for it too, then all I's have to plug in is GPS, and maybe have a SD slot left over.
Nevermind. I just realized I'm a complete tard. I forgot we were talking actual ribbon here and focused on the elevator part.
Let's hear it for coffee kicking in 15 minutes too late.....
if it's tapered at the ends, couldn't you just make the ends large enough in diameter to support your payload inside? That way you could have a consistent size to run your capsule or whatever through on the inside?
How about a more intuitive way to set up servers, DNS, Shares, etc. Themes are nice, and I will appreciate the Wireless support on my laprop, but it would be nice not to have to jump through my own ass to get interchange, etc. to do what I want.
Yes, I know....RTFM.
sorry
This is the first incident of its kind, so dont write of paypal, unless of course they are not at all willing to take any corrective or remedial action.
This is most certainly NOT the first incident of its kind. I refer you to http://www.paypalsucks.com http://www.paypalsui t.com/ Look at the forums. This was just the first time a group slashdotters care about got ripped off.
Nope.
I work Tech Support (Graveyard)for a company with offices in many countries. I have Wintel, UNIX and Network guys everywhere. And everyone is on my contact list, from the CIO (so I know if he's upstairs), to our UNIX guy in Singapore. If a call or ticket comes in, or a situation arises, I can - at a glance - at 4AM - tell who's in, and if they're actually using their PC. Instant messaging someone for whom it is a minor issue to perform some small task (restart something, whatever) certainly beats the hell out of Dialing For Dollars and waking people up who then have to boot, connect, fix it and try to get back to sleep.
It also beats calling the guys overseas, who I frequently cannot understand. For some reason, these guys have perfect spelling and grammar on Trillian.

I was cutting edge for about 14 minutes once. But that was a very long time ago......
DAMN. One minute off the mark. So much for preview.

mmmmmmm, popcorn.
Funny - it's quicker to NOT ACCEPT as accepting takes you to the AAdvantage enrollment while NOT accepting drops you right into making a reservation.
One step closer to my own rat thing...AKA Jet Dawg. Now if I can only overcome the cooling issues.....
But will it work with my DirecTV?

Hmmm, I think I just figured out why MS went with Intel guts for the xbox - check out the eXo. All packaged really pretty and ready to go (almost).
