  1. Re:Support supported cards on NDIS Wrapper For Wireless LAN Cards Under GPL · · Score: 1

    Anything with Prism chip sets are OK.

  2. Bah! GNU's Not Unix on SCO News Roundup · · Score: 1

    Repeat after me...

  3. Re:micromechatronics? on Epson Creates Tiny Flying Robot · · Score: 1

    Micro Me chat ronics? Sounds like something from Austin Powers...

  4. Re:stupidity on The Case for the Moon · · Score: 1

    Hmmm, last time I checked, solar power was nuclear... ;-)

  5. Re:to paraphrase - space sucks on Voyager 1 Reaches Interstellar Space · · Score: 1, Funny

    Nothing strange about that small accelleration - space sucks...

  6. Re:Hmm... on Intel: Metal in Future Chips = Less Leakage (updated) · · Score: 1

    Liquid Nitrogen drips? Well, it will just turn into gaseous Nitrogen, which is commonly known as air - no sweat...

  7. Remember Micro Alloy Transistors? on Intel: Metal in Future Chips = Less Leakage (updated) · · Score: 1

    This is very mature technology...

  8. Aaaww come-on on DARPA's Autonomous Vehicle Challenge Too Popular? · · Score: 1

    they don't have an old military airfield that can handle 200 teams???

  9. The return of the killer tomatoes on Simpsons Fan Creates Real Tomacco Plant · · Score: 5, Funny

    I can see the crowds at the movie theaters...

  10. Re:OpenOffice.org Reader - please!! on Dreamweaver MX, Flash MX With CrossOver Office · · Score: 1

    I don't know of an OOo reader - 70MB is small enough, but MS and Corel have readers for download on their sites. So, just get a reader from MS.

  11. Re:Supported = stable? on Dreamweaver MX, Flash MX With CrossOver Office · · Score: 1

    You'll have to try an application and see for yourself. I'm using QuickBooks on CrossOver for my business accounting and it is rock solid. So, it works very well, when it works.

  12. Re:fascinating article.. on Using Honeypots to Fight Worms · · Score: 1

    Well, responding to a computer attack is not self defence - you are not under personal attack - even though it may feel like that. It is merely an effort to protect your own property and as such is probably allowed in most jurisdictions.

  13. Belief system on Microsoft Antitrust Compliance Questioned · · Score: 1

    When a lawyer says in court: I believe... it is actually a sign to the judge that whatever follows is not true. So, I believe MS knew they were lying when they commented that they believe... Whatever...

  14. Nuclear Batteries on Toshiba Pushes Safe, Small Nuclear Reactor Design · · Score: 1

    There has been talk about this for many years. One way to handle it is to drill a hole into the earth and put the reactor way down there, then fill the hole up with only the power bars coming out. Once the thing is spent, short the bars together causing the reactor to self destruct - melt into an amorphous blob - way down in the hole and then just leave it there. Safe, clean and zero maintenance.

  15. My Laptop on Home Stereo Equipment With Online Music Purchasing · · Score: 2, Interesting

    machine can do that too. So what is so revolutionary about this? I have been using an old IBM Stinkpad as a stereo system for quite some time now. Sounds great when hooked up to a 600W stereo amplifier with 12 inch woofers and an array of horn tweeters. Stinkpads are good for something after all...

  16. Re:The pot and the kettle are both black. on Microsoft's Take on iTunes for Windows · · Score: 1

    No, write it to an ISO file, loopback mount it and rip it. This process can be done with a simple script and saves you from wasting(?) a CDR.

  17. Re:Non-Outlook mail clients? on E-Mail Controls in Office 2003 · · Score: 1

    Remember Lotus Notes? Nothing new here.

  18. Re:AVG anti-virus on Top 10 Software Titles Every Home PC Needs? · · Score: 1

    www.free-av.de is better

  19. If you repeat anything on Might Mars Contain Life? · · Score: 1

    long enough, some people will believe it.

    Its true, I read it in the Bible...

  20. Re:Enough, please! on SCO vs Linux.. Continued · · Score: 1

    Well yeah, good analogy, especially since Ford didn't invent the motor car...

  21. Re:This again? on Asia Running Out Of IP Addresses · · Score: 1

    Well actually, I can remember when the world was suffering from global cooling...

    Fads keep changing.

  22. Linu's Raelian quote on Today's SCO News · · Score: 1

    "..We were the ones who made all life on earth" "you mistook us for gods" "we now reveal to you the secret behind the main religions" "and how to realise your potential and achieve global peace" - Yahweh

    Read this book dictated by the extra-terrestrial to Rael. Contact those people whose lives have already been radically improved by this revolutionary philosophy.

  23. Stable door on SCO Claims Linux Sales After Suit Irrelevant · · Score: 3, Funny

    Judges are familiar with 'closing the door after the horse bolted'.

    SCO has no case.

  24. Their sales dropped to zero, on SCO Claims Linux Sales After Suit Irrelevant · · Score: 2, Interesting

    so they would not have had any sales after the suit was filed...

    Obvious.
