  1. I'm waiting for... on First Cell Phone for Dogs · · Score: 1

    The all-in-one printer/fax/copier/cellphone version. My dog's a mover and a shaker.

  2. The Palm Trilogy on Palm's Mistakes · · Score: 5, Funny

    "Where Palm Went Wrong", "More of Palm's Great Mistakes", and "Who is this Palm Person ANyway?"

  3. Patent Abuse Tracking Website? on Another Hotspot Redirect Patent Collection Attempt · · Score: 1

    Anybody know if such a site exists? It sure would be nice to know not to buy products from Company X because they're a bunch of litigious wankers.

  4. Security? on Advice for Developers: Make Common Usage Easy · · Score: 1

    I don't know about everyone else but it seems to me whenever I see "easy to use" I also see "apply this patch immediately". And the patches keep coming.

  5. So SCO made money? on SCO and Baystar Strike a Deal · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Would this be seen as profit for SCO? I'd hate to see them have more funding for the FUD campaign from hell.

  6. Wow instant upgrades!! on USB 1.1 Renumbered To USB 2? · · Score: 1

    Just add a committee!

  7. But how good is it? on Geoprofiling Moves Into The Limelight · · Score: 2, Interesting
    Geo-profilers claim their methods have helped detectives solve about half of the 450

    How many of those would have been solved without the program? I'd like to see a head-to-head, although I assume most police forces don't have the manpower to devote 2 seperate teams to the same crimes.

  8. Is this a contradiction? on Servers with a Smile · · Score: 2, Interesting
    "A Linux conversion is not for the faint-hearted. Companies must install new hardware and software on a large scale and prepare for bugs and hardware incompatibilities galore."

    Then later the article reads, "Levanon says the hardware and software savings are nice, but what has really made the conversion compelling is that his labor costs are down 10% to 20%."

    If there are so many bugs and incompatibilities then why does administration cost 10% 20% less?

  9. Re:My special thoughts on Egyptian Pyramid Rover Finds... Another Door · · Score: 1

    she looked like a lollipop! Bug ole head and a twig for a body. I like something to grab onto. You know, a little meat with my potatos.
