When you run CAT5, you will be close to pipes, electrical lines, etc. There's always the potential for danger.
While I imagine you're right about the qualifications and the illegality...one has to wonder how much of a strict qualification/certification process is necessary to the skill of drilling holes, installing face plates and laying CAT-5 cable...it's not like you can electrocute yourself with CAT-5.
Tom's Hardware has the latest and greatest Pentium 4 3.2GHz running Quake III at 450 FPS. So this computer is almost 5 times slower than the top of the line, at least as for as OpenGL/Quake/games go.
Epic MegaGames actually started like this. The two guys that started the company drove semi trucks, and while one guy drove for 8 hours, the other would program, do art, level design, etc.
Kind of neat, eh?
Inspired me to write a Tetris clone on our 30 hour drive to Disney World in the family station wagon. I wrote it on paper then actually typed it in at the Hotel. I didn't have a cigarette lighter power inverter back in 1993.

You can't get any work done in 800x600 anyway. Hell, for much other than Word, 1024x768 stinks too!

LCD specials
14" for $159
15" for $219
17" for $319
Do we see 17" LCD's for $249 this Holiday season?
LCD's are great for multiple monitor set ups, your desk doesn't collapse like with CRTs. Then again, your colors don't quite match up either...
There are a bunch of ASP's and B2B sites that only work with the latest versions of Internet Explorer, and we frequently use them here at the office.
You can always 'vote' by not buying the thing.

You can download a program to do it, or you can edit the registry:
Hive: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

The part that worries me with how well 2000 works, how many defects do the 9x, XP, and NT versions contain?
It's not really that 2000 has less bugs, it's how well it handles them. Windows 98 might have more or less bugs, but it crashes way more often.
Not to mention how much more functionality is included in Windows 2000 than Windows 98.
Windows 2000 has finally given Microsoft the "five nines" it needs to compete in the business market. (99.999% uptime)
The latest service pack apparently has about 675 bug fixes.
Great. Only 62,325 more! Go Microsoft!

You've got to WANT to learn something.
The other two were:
MONEY.BAS (home finance program)
REMLINE.BAS (removed line #'s from your GW-BASIC/BASICA programs)
I'm almost embarassed to admit I know that. So many late nights staying up late, typing lines of code in from "MAKE YOUR OWN BASIC GAMES" books.
