I'm guessing that someone out there might know. Were there any BBS's in the late 80's early 90's that were conducting some sort of business through their systems that might invalidate some of these remote electronic commerce claims? I'll admit to not reading the patent claims, but I'd guess someone must have conducted some remote electronic business transactions before these guys came along. Anyone have any more info?
Agreed,
After me neither of my parents were able to have kids but wanted to have more of their own. My sister (now 16) was a GIFT (Gamete Intrafallopian Transfer) baby and my brother (now 11) was In Vitro and actually frozen for a year before he was implanted. Both are now doing great. I know that there are many children out there waiting to be adopted which is another great option for parents that want children, but I do believe that modern infertility are amazing and worth looking into if you really want to have a child of your own and are unable to. Be warned however, the process is not cheap.

I'd personally use dd if I had a Linux box around and could, but if you'd like a simple inexpensive tool for Windows that just works try Undisker

Bring back Mahir!! Maybe we can get Lucas to include a light saber duel between our favorite turk and our new friend the Star Wars Kid!
