Yeah, funny you should mention that. Maybe these guys should get involved. Or maybe these instead. Software-defined radios have been built and marketed for hams for quite a while now.
I haven't seen one available for VHF/UHF until now. I'm sure someone will correct me though.
The only thing I find missing in this discussion is that the FCC and local power companies have enough problems taming the unintentional radiation from their equipment, without introducing intentional broadband radiation! Remember that those miles and miles of power lines make reeeally good antennas! The thought of possibly wiping out military, amateur, and fixed service HF allocations trying to run broadband over a broken power grid should make everyone think several times about "whether-we-really-should-be-doing-this."
Just for the record, our local mono^H^H^H^Hutility has let problems go for years before finally finding and addressing them: Link Here to Cinergy/WLW story
At least this time the problem was resolved. Multiply this by hundreds of power companies and you should see we *might* have a problem...
If Win 2003 server has 18Mb of patches in the first 6 months then we will know the answer.
Looks like they'll have at least 18 Mb of patches when it's available! (Remember that it's supposed to have gone gold so CDs can be produced.) I can't _wait_ to see the size of SP1.
Personally, I am hoping the start doing better.
Yeah, I'm hoping so too. But experience tells me world peace will break out first...
I learned a bit about these when I was in college...when set up right, they are much faster than microprocessors, and can be changed on-the-fly by writing new array logic to it.
Future DRM?
That would be the TCPA chip, my friend. Palladium anyone?
OK, so this happens a year from now, let's say:
MS: OK, we think we have this ActiveX stuff fixed. Really. This time for sure. You can trust us now.
user: I don't think so. You told us you couldn't be trusted. Back in November 2002 if I'm correct.
MS: Oh yeah...
user: Go away.
Microsoft learning the hard way that it takes many good experiences to build trust and just one bad experience to break it.

Sounds like you need my unofficial title:

Or maybe I need to choose one of yours...

Caldera sues itself over code contained in OpenLinux and UnitedLinux distributions!
David Boies of course loses the case.
we're still not sure WHAT that means though... film at 11
