I know when I proposed that my Marine unit use wireless instead of running Cat5 everywhere out in the open while on unit field ops, I got shot down quicker than hell because wireless isn't secure enough to meet our standards. Anyway, I know the Marine Corps won't be using wireless for a long while. Can't comment on other services.
Eddy Marin uses a company known as PG&C Leasing as a front for his spam operations. Here's the Google cache of what appears to be evidence of his company filing for Chapter 11. I don't think this is good news-I think he's restructuring.
Seems like a large percentage of stores on Pricewatch are California based. This tax ought to hurt them a bit. This is, of course, a geek's analysis of where the tax will hurt us:)
I noted earlier this asshole used his uncle's info in setting up Earthlink accounts. He also used his mother's name and his mentally-handicapped brother's name. These mistakes and his persistence in using Earthlink as his only ISP cost him quite a bit.
This guy used his relative's info for setting up accounts. When Earthlink talked to his 58 year old retired uncle, they figured out what was going on when he mentioned a nephew that works at home w/ computers. (I read the Wall Street Journal. Headline news!)
I don't think Troed's haphazard collection of web sites can kep up w/ the facts, thank you:) Nicely done, Tackhead.

So which one would you trust w/ your data? NTFS, ext3, xfs, or reiserfs?

Well, that wasn't flamebait but anyway. I believe that ext3, reiserfs, and xfs are all much better at what a journaled filesystem is named for. I have lost data w/ the fabled NTFS journaled filesystem, I have not lost data w/ reiserfs and ext3. Also, it sure is nice not to have to defrag!
To echo a wise Anonymous Coward below, have you TRIED Libranet? Maybe, just maybe it's more than plain vanilla Debian w/ an installer like you hypothesized.
I have already addressed this in another post but I use apt4rpm and it's great especially compared to the default package manager but it doesn't compare to Debian apt-get. There are more packages in Debian, the packages are better tested, and apt-get is more mature. I still get dependencies sometimes w/ apt4rpm, especially on KDE packages.
You don't know what you're talking about. I run both Redhat 9 and Libranet so I think I'm a bit more qualified to comment. Aside from your gripes about the default Gnome install (I wouldn't know, I don't use Gnome), Libranet 2.7 (haven't bought 2.8 yet) is far and away better thatn Redhat 9. No more endless lib dependencies when installing a package, everything just works. In my opinion, usability also is a measure of how hard it is to install a package, recompile a kernel, etc. Not just the menus. Libranet's Adminmenu tool allows any newbie to setup a personal firewall, install packages, recompile a kernel, install Flash, install Microsoft Truetype Fonts, or even RealPlayer. You can install Java when doing th actual install. Last time I checked, Redhat had no tools that could do these things for a newbie w/ a GUI. Well, I guess Redhat's package manager is alright if you like RPM hell. I haven't even gotten into how much better apt-get is. I know ap4rpm is out there and I use it weekly but it doesn't compare to the speed, selection of packages, or the stability of Debians's apt-get
Bottom line: You haven't used it so you don't know what you're talking about.

How about a easy to install tested Debian w/ the same packages as other bleeding-edge distros? Also, the Adminmenu tools is great, allowing even a newbie to recompile teir kernel w/ ease which is something I haven't seen the likes of anywhere else.

Always got to get in a shot about the US, right? When was the last time you were here? Oh wait, you only know what you've read.
I see their outline momentarily when I shoot them. Fucking jackass afraid to post w/ your username.
I see a lot of invisible players on Unreal Tournament 2003. Annoying as hell. You can usually find them by firing blindly w/ the flak cannon :)
You're a brave man to use a sig like that. I wouldn't dare :) Not on Slashdot

My comment still applys to Win2K as well.

Mozlla does a very good job and it's free too.
Well, right click on My Computer, go to device manager, and set XP not to complain about unsigned drivers. How hard is that?
Speaking as an IT guy about to get out of the military w/ a higher level security clearance, they alway seem to be hiring people like me.

Where's the mass flaming from Mac users about that Mac OS flaws comment?
Sheesh, Slashdot w/out flaming? What next?
Hmmm, when was the last time you saw NTFS recover a journal after a power outage? Maybe a journaled filesystem by your standards...
You're dead right. I think everybody agrees w/ you.

Yes, they have their own apt-repository.
