    Then get the AsRock version, it's pretty much Asus and it's getting raving reviews all over. And has an optical drive.

    Agreed, the keyboard on my X40 is near perfect and I've never used anything nearly as good. 12" also means more flexiblity, I could never use one of those gigantic 15.4" things.. whenever I see them, i think of mobile phones from the 80s.

    Large screens for stationary computing, small for on the go/relaxing in umpteen different positions on the couch and so on.

    You mean like Beagle (linux) or Google Desktop Search (Win)?
    Except you can use these on your PC today without installing a beta OS.

    (I know we consider XP to be beta)

    So it is your employers job to:

    1. Give you a key
    2. Keep it safe, in case you go nuts

    ...

    This is mandatory for home users why?

  6. Re:A router routes packets. on Linux Getting Harder To Crack · · Score: 1
    So... when I route my internal network through one IP, and route ports back to multiple IPs, is that NAT or PAT? The Internet is many. My network is many (well, not as many as the Internet ;). So it's a many-many mapping.
    Your network, to the Internet, is just the one IP. If you were to use NAT, you need an IP per machine.

    ALL ports to one IP = NAT. (So you can use an external IP through a router)
    ONE OR MORE ports from one IP to another IP = PAT

    I believe access times can be switches off on all the current, major filesystems by use of the noatime option in fstab.

    In that being in X means all window managers can do it, not just VTWM.

    Psst! You can do that with X ..

    I'd say kakahai or waimea is about as bare as it gets, I usually use one of those for my 800x600 needs.

    Do they come with 7200 rpm drives?

  12. Re:Integrated isn't ALL bad on Non-Integrated Motherboards? · · Score: 1

    In fact the AGP 3.0 (8x) specification allows for more than one AGP port :) So, atleast in theory, it should be possible to use onboard VGA and an AGP card at the same time these days.

  13. Re:Awesome on SVG 1.1 Becomes W3C Proposed Recomendation · · Score: 1

    You seem to have missed this summary :) quote: "Last week we brought you the story of Dominic Lachowicz having made a SVG GTK+ theme engine. This week Dom has added to that by creating a SVG loader for gdk-pixbuf. This means that we now should be able to use SVG images everywhere in GNOME2, including places such as the GTK+ stock icons, the desktop background image and panel backround images."
