Richard Stallman didn't seem to have any problem with making money distributing software under the GPL. Follows is a bit of his writeup of the GNU project. He's quite clear on the point that he made money distributing source....
I began work on GNU Emacs in September 1984, and in early 1985 it was beginning to be usable. This enabled me to begin using Unix systems to do editing; having no interest in learning to use vi or ed, I had done my editing on other kinds of machines until then.
At this point, people began wanting to use GNU Emacs, which raised the question of how to distribute it. Of course, I put it on the anonymous ftp server on the MIT computer that I used. (This computer, prep.ai.mit.edu, thus became the principal GNU ftp distribution site; when it was decommissioned a few years later, we transferred the name to our new ftp server.) But at that time, many of the interested people were not on the Internet and could not get a copy by ftp. So the question was, what would I say to them?
I could have said, "Find a friend who is on the net and who will make a copy for you." Or I could have done what I did with the original PDP-10 Emacs: tell them, "Mail me a tape and a SASE, and I will mail it back with Emacs on it." But I had no job, and I was looking for ways to make money from free software. So I announced that I would mail a tape to whoever wanted one, for a fee of $150. In this way, I started a free software distribution business, the precursor of the companies that today distribute entire Linux-based GNU systems.
Consider labyrinth ducts and a forced air fan. Put the fan in the server closet, build labyrinth ducts in and out of the closet. Labyrinth ducts have been used for years to sound isolate recording studios from each other.
But should be a stepping stone to having your own company that actually *makes* something. I was a consultant for about 1.5 years. Not great money because I was only doing part-time while designing my own product.
First a question about WEP on Win, now it's big news that HP is giving away a free browser.
Of course, I'll get modded down as flamebait by the fascist moderators, but that's life and my karma can handle it. If you can't laugh at my post at least laugh at my sig...
Second that. Works fine at my house on 2 laptops w/XP home and one with Win98se. I don't seem to recall having any substantial issues getting it to play. I did use numerics and upper case hex chars for the shared secret because I wasn't quite clear what would and wouldn't work.
Like why the tail broke off of an A300 just because the pilot made alternating rudder inputs. FYIO, this flight was AA587, the one that went down a few days after 911.

Who we say Fuck to: Alonetrio and what remains of the WAB team, Artik from SPAXXX, Toc2rta lamerz and especially Niacin (as they stole the 2.0 overflow discovery from a pspupdate's forum member) and released crappy code like a useless kernel dumper), Cpasjuste who said Yoshi is a liar but whose main hobby his to steal code form others. Any people who joined toc2rta, People who said shit about Yoshihiro or blamed him, people claiming we had to release the downgrader to them as they owned that priviledge, and people who forgot that devs have a life.
now you have the proof Yoshihiro knows to code and doesn't code shit !
The next one who will say shot about him or any respectable devlopper will get my kick on his ass.
Not exactly. There is, however, serious speculation that the Microsoft/Starbucks/Boeing Triumvate of Evil it behind it. It's common knowledge that car drivers drink more coffee, buy less software and fly on fewer commercial flights than their mass-transit cow-orkers.
And survey your living spaces. When my daughter was a couple years old and the powerline/childhood leukemia thing hit the news, I did just that. I relocated the main feeder cable from my meter to my breaker box to get the field down to zero in her room. I was able to do it by just pulling some giant staples out of the cable and moving it without disturbing connections. YMMV, hire an electrician for anything more invasive.
As to the stuff not on your property, I'll bet that it's still undetectable thanks to the inverse square law. In any case, if it's bothering you, the first thing to do is rent the meter and do a survey.
I'm not sure where you got your information. You can pick up a used series I with lifetime service for less than $200 on ebay. The lifetime service is good for the life of the unit and is fully transferable. I have 2 units that I obtained that way. Install a network card and hack them for shell prompt, ftp, web server and video extraction and have a ball.
Just a change in business plans, RTFA. Tivo is giving deep discounts and rebates for the hardware. $50 for a Tivo means that they *have* to get a service commitment to break even.
First of all, don't muck with your house wiring. It would be far better to reorganize your room around the UPS than to change the wiring inside your breaker box. It's unlikely that it would be legal and if there ever was an issue concerning fires or insurance, your ass would be in a sling.
As to batteries, I have an old surplus 700 watt APC UPS that I run 4 servers and a couple of switches on. The batteries were dead when I got it and I jury-rigged 2 garden tractor batteries in series to it. It works perfectly, but your mileage may vary. The UPS manufacturers generally *do not* want you to do this, so do it at your own risk.
With Google's book-scanning program set to resume in earnest in the northern autumn, copyright laws that long preceded the Internet look to be headed for a digital-age test.
For getting it's act together. I built up 10 P4 systems each with Abit AI7 motherboards. They all worked flawlessly... except for the bullshit Northbridge fan. I had to replace every one of them.
Nice to see that Abit figured out a fix with the heatpipe system on the Northbridge chip and this board.

At least they're usually not used for mission-critical applications.
Try telling that to a bride on her wedding day. It's obvious you've never taken pictures for hire.

Correction. I've not tried WEP with the Win98se laptop.

No static IP, but mine hasn't changed in the 6 months I've had service. I know because I set up a VPN link tied to the IP and it hasn't gone dead yet.
