Try TuffTest Pro (I think it can be found for $20 with a quick google) with the $20 plug set, and get a POST Probe from cwlinux.com, and codes from bioscentral.com. Voila, all you need for MUCH cheaper than MicroScope WITH their POST probe, and works better.
We cancelled ours already, without knowing. We were screwed by AT&T's coverage maps being EXTREMELY inaccurate and their salespeople lying, but we got out in time to switch to Sprint.

What time did you post this? I've got 9:48AM as your post time (but the time zone is often off), giving you until 11:48, or 3:48 battery life. 3:48 isn't that good, unless it's a very small subnotebook.
There's Trend Micro's HouseCall, which is an ActiveX applet that runs virus scans. Actually, most diagnostic web sites have ActiveX. Also, PowerLeap's InSPECS system requires IE with ActiveX enabled.

Actually, the G5 is close competition for the Pentium M in both performance and efficiency.
Actually, on Winboxes that I've worked with, running stuff like setup.exe will automatically bring up a "Run As..." dialog. Also, you can Shift-Right Click on an icon to get Run As.
Last I installed an RPM on my Mandrake box (about a week ago), I had to put in the root password.
Nitpick: Said convicted monopolist used directory for many years, while Apple used the term folder. Microsoft simply ripped it off of Apple.
Also, if SUSE 9.0 is at all like 8.2, be afraid. Most RPMs crashed and burned, and compiling apps? Never. Mandrake isn't the easiest to configure (especially when your old box is dragging along), but it Just Works. RedHat (now Fedora) is also good BECAUSE it's the industry standard, and RPM was designed FOR IT (the R in RPM is RedHat). However, it's bloated to hell, and Mandrake is about as popular, meaning that many of the packages are available for it.
Roll your own PDA will never happen any time soon, unless you build your own board. However, I'm actually working on designing a roll-your-own laptop spec. Here's what I've got so far:
12.5"x11"x1.5" Up to 15" LCD @.5" thick LCD module will be in two pieces - module and hinge, hinge will be 12.5"x1"x.5", will connect to back of laptop Graphics can be embedded, however, a Mini-AGP slot is recommended Will use notebook HDDs, slimline CD drives, NO floppy drive Two PCMCIA slots
Avoid AT&T. Their national GSM lan doesn't cover everything their local GSM plan does. The local plan covers a lot of Ohio, but the national plan only covers Columbus and a little bit of I-71. Or, should I say, you get slammed by roaming if you have coverage but aren't in that area.
You haven't seen an AT&T, T-Mobile, Cingular, (all three GSM) or Nextel phone, have you? They all take SIM cards.
Also, I've found that SMS is actually quite well supported, but it's not cheap either way, except on AT&T, where it's free to recieve. Nextel actually forces you to recieve the message, and it's (AFAIK) 15 cents per RECIEVED message, and disabling SMS prevents voicemail alerts from working.
Actually, come to think of it, the Amiga might autodetect floppies. However, the only platform that still exists (as in new systems being made by the company that originally made them and have some binary compatibility with the earliest systems), and the first one to do so, would be the Mac.

Umm, maybe someone who overclocked a few too many CPUs, and now wants to make some keychains (damn, that ceramic is a BITCH to drill through...)

Sprint or T-Mobile. T-Mobile has HORRIBLE coverage, and Sprint has great coverage if you spring for the $5/month free roaming.

A 402MB installation of Windows XP doesn't come with NEARLY as much as a 1200MB install of RedHat. Let's add it up:
WinXP: 402MB, 1CD
OXP: 2-300MB, 1-3CDs
Various games: ~500MB, ~5CDs
Server software: ~1GB, ~5CDs
PhotoShop: ???
RedHat (and others): 1000-1500MB, 3CDs
OOo: Included in distro
Games: Included in distro
Server software: Included
GIMP: Included
Hmm... which does better in THIS comparison?

By the way, Linus is now with OSDL.
I can remember some of my Win2K Pro CD's key (it seems to not accept other keys, and it's very similar to, but not the same as, the French key):
DDTPV
B9GHM (89GHM for the French key)
The whole key is: DDTPV-TXMX7-BBGJ9-WGY8K-B9GHM

Actually, it would have to be Socket 478 (or 479 when the PowerLeap adaptor comes out for the Pentium M). The 1.4 P4 was only available in Socket 423.
Did you notice that it's a MINI-PCI card? Didn't think so. They really had to do a lot of work to get it in that form factor...

Come to think of it, wasn't AutoPlay in versions as early as 95, and didn't it start up the CD player app?
I thought a day without sunshine is good for nerds, which according to the Slashdot logo, is the intended audience of this site.
Actually, he did put it on an old P1 heatsink. It had higher latency, but also higher accuracy.

Three of them were issued before the MS Autoplay patent, is what I was saying.

BTW, the link found 15 items, all of which either had software or bugs in their titles.
