Both the v1.0 and v1.1 WRT54G routers have 16MB of RAM and a MIPS processor running at 125Mhz. The v2.0 of the same router has the 200Mhz CPU.
If you have a WRT54GS, it comes backed with 32MB of RAM and a 200Mhz CPU also. That's some beefy hardware for just routing alone! Even better, these routers run on a version of Linux. The source code is available from Linksys for free.
Screw having another bulky PC laying around. You can have my Linksys when you pry it from my dead cold hands!

Two types of Quality of Service features are available, Wired QoS which controls devices plugged in to the router with a Ethernet cable, and Wireless QoS, which control devices that are wirelessly connected to the router.
Wired QoS
Device Priority : You may specify priority for all traffic from a device on your network by giving the device a Device Name, specifying priority and entering its MAC address.
Ethernet Port Priority : You may control your data rate according to which physical LAN port your device is plugged into. You may assign High or Low priority to data traffic from devices connected on LAN ports 1 through 4.
Application Priority : You may control your data rate with respect to the application that is consuming bandwidth. Check Optimize Gaming Applications to automatically allow common game application ports to have a higher priority. You may customize up to eight applications by entering the port number they use.
Wireless QoS
Wireless QoS is also referred to as Wi-Fi MultiMediaTM (WMM) by the Wi-Fi AllianceTM. Select Enable to utilize WMM if you are using other wireless devices that are also WMM certified.
No Acknowledgement : Enable this option if you would like to disable acknowledgement. If this option is enabled, the router will not re-send data if an error occurs.
I haven't read through the PDF documents, but here is a link for some rebuttals. I will read them later when I'm off work. At any rate, you may very well be correct in that a national flat tax might be bad for the poor, but I can't say for sure. But given this is a rather basic concern, it might be found here.
This is a prime example why the IRS needs to be demolished and replaced with a unified sales tax. That's it, pure and simple.
By letting our government tax every little nit-picking thing, they can shape society in the most mundane way. The power to tax at such a fine resolution provides the government with too much control. Seriously, that bothers me quite a bit!
It's not refundable if they file bankruptcy. At that point, everyone gets fucked starting off with the investers all the way to the employees. The debt simply gets "written off".
A well known scam in the US involves taking investment money and buying a home in Florida. Then, once bankruptcy is called, the home that all of the investment is locked up in, gets sold by the individual. As I understand it, even if the court knew this for a fact, it's against law in Florida to seize someones home.
I'm not saying this venture is a scam. But, you always must be aware of the possibility. 20 grand is a lot to keep an eye on.
Hmm, how about we combine the two. How about..."ROBOBEER". Ya, I can see the future now. Just attach some walking legs to each can of beer. Then, sell a master ROBOBEER remote control for mucho grande!
It's bullshit is what it is! Fuck Amazon! Business ideas should NEVER be patentable. If it was, Ford would have a patent on the assembly line process. Thus everyone in the fucking world would be forced to pay Ford a royalty payment regarding manufacturing of goods. If not, they wouldn't be able to export goods to the US.
I agree with you. But being that I leave my WAP wide open, I don't mind if people use it but not abuse it.

It's your call, I'm not going to stop you from leeching bandwidth. However, may I urge you and fellow slashdotters to be ethical about it. I mean, if you really need net access and just plan on checking e-mail for a moment, then I suppose it's alright. But please, for the love of God, don't be pulling shit from IRC or saturating the connection with Bittorrents. If you need that kind of bandwidth, do it at home on your OWN connection.
If Mrs. Clinton is the democratic candidate, then the obvious victor will be the republicans in 2008. Basically, you will have a very high turnout just to vote against Clinton.
This is really scary. If she does become the 08 candidate, then republicans win by default...and it will be regardless who it is. We seriously need run off voting!
Oh common! The solution is simple. Just build the worlds biggest trebuchet and launch that stuff outta sight. As long as you don't see it anymore, it's not going to cause any harm.
Besides, hunting mutated chickens and deer will be fun in the next 10 years.
You laugh now, but a future "Scenic Channel" could be in the works. Imagine not only having realtime HD video of Earth from outer space, but also HD video of a fireplace, aquarium at seaworld, the beach, etc. Being that LCD technology will replace all of the CRT TVs in the future, you could leave them on all the time and hang them on the wall. Basically, a screensaver like channel with some kick ass footage.
Let's just assume for the sake of argument that we do have extraterrestrial technology (in Area 51 or something). Our military will keep that technology under wraps and never expose it to the world unless it's absolutely necessary. Think of it as an Ace card up the sleeve. When all our technology fails in wartime, or the USA needs a last cry of hope, only THEN when this extraterrestrial be used. However, once it's exposed to the public...it would only be a matter of time before the rest of the works sees how possible it is and throw R&D project money into something similar.
Think of it this way. No corporation would invest in warp drive technology because we don't know if it can be done. However, if they saw a working model, then they know it can in fact be made. As such, it's worth the risk in R&D expenditure.
Hey, I'm not backing Rove, nor am I going to burn him to the stake. Why, because as of yet, there still is an investigation undergoing. But I will say this, if Rove is indeed found guilty then his ass needs to be nailed to the wall just like this hacker. Anyone regardless of citizenship should be treated equal based on crime. I know that polititians are a bunch of maggots and tend to slither out of harm way. Regardless, when someone compromisses nation security in any way, they put our country at risk.
Works case scenario, this "hacker" might have downloaded important classified nuclear secrets and sold them to the Chinese. I don't really know what the fuck he did other then what he "claimed" to have said.
The issue with Rove has not been confirmed a fact yet. According to the media, it was a reporter who informed Rove. Untill the facts known, let's not spread FUD, ok?
Portable MP3 players are sure to play, well...MP3s. But most players will not read the OGG format. Personally I would rather lay in bed with my iPod and listen to an interview then setting upright in front of my PC just to playback the OGG file.
How is 70 years in prison a justifiable sentence for these actions?
As a deterrent, pure and simple.
Point is, the military will make it damn clear not to fuck with national security. That said however, the military should do everything possible to secure it's own networks. Clearly, it has been demonstrated that they have some catching up to do.
We are talking about government property. They will not judge him based on his "intent". They will judge him based on what he DID. The military will treat every civilian like a possible spy. Even if the door is wide open, you do no walk into a military base. Same goes for their network.
Your advocating communism. At trust me when I say that communistic countries have a much more relaxed regulation when it comes to protecting the enviroment.
