The magnets in the remote would use more power in the remote, but less from the wall.
The resonant frequency... not necessarily. The resonant frequency could actually use less power in the remote as well. Here's how it would work (I'll note that it was actually done as an early remote control, too.)
Depressing the power button strikes a tuning fork Sound waves from the tuning fork causes vibration in a switch of some sort on the TV, powering a microcontroller for long enough to turn another switch on
Actually, you could have a remote control - without even making it wired.
Magnets.
(Although this has some drawbacks of its own.)
Either that, or some switch that when it's exposed to a resonant frequency, powers a microcontroller for long enough to bring the TV up, and have the button on the remote emit that sound.
The thing is, with the school... they're required to report things at the first sign of trouble, or the school could be sued, and the person who didn't act could be charged with child pornography charges him/herself.
You know, a couple nights ago, I watched a movie... "Shooter," and in it, the main character was ex-military, and had sworn an oath to protect the US from its enemies, foreign and domestic.
And (rot13ed, as it's a spoiler of the ending) ur qvq xvyy n HF frangbe, nzbat bguref, to protect the country.
Alternately, the judge could go on a pre-emptive attack. The instant he throws the case out, have his own campaign team spam the hell out of every medium possible, saying that he freed six children from being raped by the giant dick of the government. (In other terms.)
Alternately, though, they could start an anti-politician movement, and change their notoriety from "those girls that got charged for making child porn... of themselves" to "those girls that died exercising their first and second amendment rights when they were gunned down for exercising those rights, and trying to topple the establishment."
I don't believe they did use BASIC's floating point routines.
There were two sets of floating point routines you could call...
The first set was in the Programmer's Aid #1 ROM, which was optional, and obviously required for anything that wanted to use it, so not too much stuff used it.
The second set was in Applesoft BASIC (a modified version of Microsoft BASIC,) but not in Woz BASIC (also known as Integer BASIC,) so calling them on an unmodified Apple ][ would result in a crash. (If it had the Applesoft ROMs installed, or was a ][+ or newer, no problem.)
That's actually not a lack of buffering going on, when a keyboard's not sending all those keystrokes. That's because the key matrix doesn't support N-key rollover (or, in that case, three-key rollover.) (N-key rollover means you can press an infinite amount of keys on the keyboard at the same time, and they'll all register. USB keyboards (with some exceptions) support up to 6-key rollover.)

Except that could backfire - you could lose on a minor technicality, and then you have to pay the legal fees for the RIAA's legal team.

Although there's still some rules in maritime law. But spacesteading isn't practical yet.
You know, I wonder if we should start throwing the T word ("terrorists") around to describe the RIAA - it is technically accurate.
However, they also lobby to have certain subsections of the law created or modified...

Except static on OTA analog lets the signal still be somewhat watchable.
Poor reception on OTA digital = no signal at all.
I think we all know that it's fucked up.
We're discussing whether it was even legal for them to be charged in the first place.

Maybe something like that is called for here.

Hey, the name's got history.
(to infinity)
Actually, no - Macs have enough market share and enough of a non-expert segment of the population that people cater to Mac users.
And, there's also MS Word available for Macs. I know, I've got it on my Mac.
Vista's highly annoying level of UAC was actually designed in an annoying manner on purpose, to try to get users to complain to the developers.
However, "Publisher: Microsoft Corporation" means... yeah, it backfired. :P
Informative gives karma, funny doesn't. Although I usually prefer to use Underrated in those situations.

You mean IIS server.
My Linux server's cost me exactly $0, and not all that much work on getting it going, either. ;)
(Using parts lying around FTW.)
There is a workaround, of course.
A small read-only FAT12 partition with two files... autorun.inf, and the installer for the ext2 IFS.
Then the rest is ext2.
What about Windows Server 2003 64-bit drivers?
Actually, there's a certain major manufacturer of x86 processors that's manufacturing a series of x86 processors that, in a 32-bit-only form, has experienced quite a success in the marketplace as of late. ;)
Chances are, it meets Vista's physical RAM requirement of 512, and is just taking that much for video.
Nah, they're modern HP printers. Light pinch, then the printer breaks.
If they were LaserJet 4s, though...
Cherry is huge in the point of sale keyboard industry, FWIW.
You might join up on geekhack.org, there's some people modifying Alps keyswitches, too, to get their desired keyboard.
