  1. SBS 2003 on Fax Server Solutions for 2005? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Windows SBS 2003 has a fax server built in? Might be a little light for your needs, but we use it at work quite happily...

  2. Re:A sample? on Turing's Original Test Played First Time Ever · · Score: 1

    Have a look at http://modernhumorist.com/mh/0107/turing/ - there's some great turing test humour there ;)

    Classics such as:

    MH:Are you a computer?
    Dell:Nope.
    MH:You'd be surprised how many fall for that one.
    Dell:Not me.

    and the wonderful:

    MH:What's fifty-six times thirty-three?
    Dell:One thousand eight hundred forty-eight.
    MH:You're pretty fast!
    Dell:Those are my favorite numbers.

  3. Re:Similar one in my car on Cheap Cell-Phone Detector · · Score: 1

    Ah, but think of people trapped under rubble whose cell phones are still working and on their person - It could help in finding them...

  4. Re:Can't be removed? on Mexican Attorney General Gets Microchip in Arm · · Score: 1

    Aaaaarrrggghhhhm, what a bad pun ;)

  5. Re:IE SP2 RC2 is not vulnerable on 4 New "Extremely Critical" IE Vulnerabilities · · Score: 1

    An additional issue allowing malicious sites to inject script into the Local Security Zone using anchor references has also been reported to affect Internet Explorer 6 running on Windows XP SP2 (release candidate / beta). This issue could not be confirmed on a fully patched Windows XP SP1 system

    Yes it is ;)

  11. Re:non sense on Gmail Users Get A Storage Boost [updated] · · Score: 0

    Reminds me of that futurama episode where Bender sees a "2" in his binary dream. Similarly confusing ;)

  12. Or using Microsoft's version... on How Apple's Mail.app Junk Filter Works · · Score: 1

    ..."Wow, the article just turned me on."

  13. Re:You know on Device for Taking Travel Notes? · · Score: 1

    >> Desktop PCs don't come with the codec, and the audio recordings don't automatically sync to the PC (?!) so you have to manually back them up. You can find the codec, and you can manually back it up, but I do want to stuff my foot in MS's ... for that little oversight.

    Er, i think you've missed the mark here. Maybe if you're using 95/98 or Me *shudder* then the codecs aren't there automatically, but AFAIK in 2000 or XP they are (defo in XP). As for the audio recordings not syncing to the pc, you just have to turn on Sync Files in activesync, and you can get everything in my documents on the pocketpc backed up to a folder on your desktop automatically.

    As for the poor quality, why not try the freeware NoteM Voice recorder, which can record in mp3 (and at a quality level you can set)

  14. Re:put it under the hood on Freecache · · Score: 1

    Yeah, but you'd have to set up some rules allowing freecache to get the content from your webserver first. Otherwise freecache would be trying to download files from itself be requesting from your webserver...

    Hope freecache have fire extinguishers near the servers, in case of too much recursion ;)

  21. Chernobyl heart on Chernobyl...18 Years Later · · Score: 2, Informative

    Don't forget to keep an eye out for this years Oscar winning short documentary Chernobyl Heart. Imagine if a tragedy like this hit some built up part of the western world - in the states or the u.k. etc...
