Nimoy is undoubtably well suited to Sci Fi. More so than most Sci Fi actors who seem to try and spout off quasi-scientific terms and come accross as total unbelievable.
But I could see him being in "4th rock from the sun", about a family of humans living on an alien planet (Mars) as opposed to a family of aliens on Earth...
I started with SuSe 7.3 Pro (you got the book, CD's, DVD etc). I now run 8.2 Pro and have found it to be better and easier. Installation is easier than Windows in my experience - but thats just my personal view.
Installation of Firefox & Plugins, Xine etc are worthwhile.
I think my only complaints when using Linux, relate to Web designers who insist on using Realplayer and Windows Media Player for Web TV, Rock Radio stations etc., Also Manufacturers, Training course providers etc who provide software that only runs on Windows. We cannot blame SuSe or any other Linux distribution for that.
At work I'm pressed into using a fairly restrictive XP PC. On a daily basis I long to get home and boot up my Linux box.
I'll say it again: "Three Cheers for SuSe".
Caveat: I don't play games Sorry. I do play games. I'm a Kolor Lines addict.
Thanks for the info. I must admit I'm starting to hear more and more positive stories about VOIP. Its certainly picking up in Europe and I have met engineers who assured me that in practice it can work really well. One pointed out that the quality seems much better than mobile phones and we don't complain about them too often.
Those Tariffs are interesting 2c / minute is seriously cheap. If I was living across the pond I think I could be tempted.
would be a "scientific study" of the respective disolving powers of each drink. Since teeth vary, I guess we would initially need to establish,the parameters of the "average tooth" of the consumer in terms of its resistance to:
A: Carbonic acid B: Phosphoric acid C: Sodium Benzoate D: Sugar activated plaque E: Anything else in a drink including colours (colors), flavours, (flavors), preseratives etc.,
Once we establish the "average tooth", we need to obtain sufficient samples which are sufficiently similar in size, type and quality of dentyne layer.
Incidentally, we also ought to test fillings and see what happens to them. We could look for loosening due to tooth decay or the disolving of metal amalgum, (or whatever filler they use).
I'd be particularly interested in the gases liberated from metal fillings and glues/resins by the corrosive action of the acids.
While we are at it, IF these drinks are made from domestic water, what effect does the fluoride have on the tooth. Fluoride is added to water supplies so that poor unfortunate people who apparantly don't buy toothpaste don't have to worry about their teeth falling out.
Obituary: J Bloggs croaked on Friday due to liver failure as a result of Fluoride overdose. The Coroner did note however that the deceased had a lovely set of teeth.
While we are at it, where are MY RIGHTS? I didn't demand fluoride in the water. If you brush your teeth with toothpaste containing fluoride AND drink copious quantities of water containing Fluoride (BECAUSE SOME MF SOB DECIDED IT WAS IN YOUR BEST INTERESTS WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT!) they can get stained black. Whoopee! Might as well issue black crayons. Why are polititians and tooth fairy campaigners so IGNORANT of long term health issues. They wouldn't have shares in fluoride mines perhaps now would they???!!!
Colours, sweeteners and preservatives are used to make products attractive to look at and cheap to produce. Medical help and therapy costs millions, maybe billions$. WHO PAYS IN THE END?
Sorry for the soapbox moment but some stuff has to be said.

Parent was marked funny but the potential is there. There may be enough people scared enough of being a minority to beg to be given their new WiFi implant with its unique xxxxxx.xxxxxx.xxxxxx IP address.

Caveat: I don't own any tin foil hats - they tend concentrate the RF energy into the body rather than away from it, especially near mobile phones...
"AND i'll probably run into compatibility issues later on that i'll have to spend time looking for solutions to anyways."
Well if MS really have stopped IE development, then you may well run into compatibility issues anyway if more developers start to use the agreed standards (whatever they are) rather than the MS "standard" for web design.....
This looks like an excellent solution to the problem. I noted the the long battery life, (rechargeable NiMh batteries + built in charger - 9Hrs to full charge, then trickle charge).
Early ruggedised portable computers looked a lot like this in the early 1990's but they were very expensive and had nowhere near the processing power this offers.Nevertheless, they were employed to do serious work.
Certainly looks tougher than my old Canon portable word processor, (though latter has pop up display and built in printer).
Er... just in case it was a typo, a "key feature", (geddit?!) of the Sharp Zaurus, (all the models I've seen or heard of anyway), is that they all have built in keypads.
As to plug in keyboards for the Zaurus, I'm not aware of any at present. I could be extremely wrong, but I don't think they'd sell that many keyboards...
I suppose you could investigate the i/o situation and figure out how to connect something up and get it to work, (some kind of port reader app?). That or figure out the keyboard matrix and grow your own port. I'm not sure if there is space in the case, (models vary), or if you're handy with a soldering iron etc...
With the new DIY port, although you would lose any warranty or guarantees of reliability, you just might be able to get one of those folding Palm keyboards to work with it.
"But if you make the state sufficiently totalitarian and the punishments sufficiently severe, as history has shown, that sort of thing does actually work, at least for a while".
Good point. If you become like that which you despise, do you then turn on yourself?....
I'm sorry to see what has been happening with RH and the experiences of some of its users. I've not tried a "proper" RH distro, however its a pity to see folk dropping Linux and going to XP on account of their experience with RH.
Perhaps I can ask them to consider SuSE Linux?
I tried Installing Linux in the late 90's and encountered problems from the beginning.
Freebie CD's based on an old "RH compatible" kernel failed - no suprise there. "Definite Linux" based on a later "RH compatable" kernel didn't wan't to compile on my machines. (Definite vanished some time back).
These were in no way valid tests of the official RH release. However, being European I decided to go for a European distro, which I figured was in the business for the long term. SuSE seemed keen to support the individual home user as well as the corporate users.
It was the purchase of SuSE 7.3 Pro that got me up and running on Linux at home. By the time 8.2 Pro arrived, YAST was making software installation much easier, especially from downloaded rpm's.
I am very happy with SuSE Linux which has after all helped to distill my interest in Linux. I have to use XP at work and always look forward to booting up my Linux box at home.
There will always be detractors of various Linux distro's. I think SuSE have been underated in the past. They continue to support the individual and the corporate user, providing a pretty good experience out of the box, while also giving the newbie Linux user confidence to take small steps towards learning by doing.
While there is plenty of scope for learning with SuSE Linux, I'm still planning to learn by trying other distro's when I can make the time.

Packets of sugar feee mints containing Sorbitol carry a warning about potential laxative effect.
Just as you said...I'll stick with coffee!
"two wrongs don't make a right"
Indeed so. Alas this is the curse of mankind throughout history.
Religion - single biggest force for evil
Ignorance - single biggest excuse for perpetual stupidity
Instead of sending probes in search of life in outer space, perhaps we should have probes looking for common sense.
Left and right are relative positional terms neither of which imply the presence of intelligence , common sense or relative correctness.
I've never seen rocking horse shit either.
