    from the Q&A:
    Q: And the old 11S series?
    A: Sorry, there's nothing that we could do for them. While the 51S and 2S share much in common, the 11S and 51S/2S are two rather different drive families. The 11S series uses an older chipset.

  4. Fedora Core on Linux for Non-Geeks · · Score: 2, Interesting

    The review talks about using Fedora, but doesn't mention whether it's version 1 or 2. This would be nice to know, especially since there are some major differences between the two.

  8. Re:How does it work? on The Heavyweight Sea Snail · · Score: 1

    With it being able to generate "generate more than 200 tons of downward force to the seabed" does this pose some ecological problems? That much force would potentially cause a great disturbance to the seafloor.

  24. It's True on Why Johnny Can't Handwrite · · Score: 1

    I'm a computer tech at an elementary school. They start the kids learning computers and typing in kindergarten (once a week). I've seen some of the 3rd graders that can easily type 40-50 wpm. So it's no surpirse that cursive could be erased with the kids so used to technology. I'm not sure how much writing they do in the classrooms, but most kids have typing twice per week starting in first grade. Personally I only use cursive for signing things, other than that I only print.
