If I had a dollar for every time I found some unbelieveably stupid thing someone had done with a computer, I'd be retired.
By that same token, I cannot count the number of times I've had some clown fuck up, lie, try to cheat, over charge, etc with a vehicle.
Me, I'm just as comfortable with a wrench in my hand as a keyboard. I do it myslef.

The motorcycle I bought many many years ago (90' FZR1000) runs a 10.5 sec quater mile @ 135 mph. STOCK. Off the show room floor.
I bought it for $4-5000 (can't remember) used. And it gets on average 35-50 MPG (depending on how I drive it).

Sorry, I have to call Bullshit.... RE:
Cars are tuned for fuel efficiency.
My truck doesn't get ANYWHERE near the stciker based mileage. My actual highway/city driving over 2000 miles is less than the sticker based city ONLY mileage by 2 miles per gallon. And I drive Normal. No tickets, no accidents, drive at most 10 over the limit and I don't "run it hard". My truck is a V6 with a manual transmission BTW.
My buddy's Caddilac Escalade with a V8 gets better mileage.
Sorry but the whole mileage thing is Bullshit Period.
Oh and by the way. FUCK YOU DODGE (aka Daimler Chrysler)!
Come on, you mean you don't use Microsoft's Remote Install Service (which doesn't multicast) to deploy 2K/2K3?
That's specifically why Uncle Billy developed and bundled this piece of shit in 2K server and demands you know it for MCSE certs.
Therefore, it must be the best. Not.
Ghost Enterprise w/ Sysprep is the only way to go. I saw some clown playing with RIS once. He must have been studying for that MCSE, because there is no other reason to use it.
I have been holding off on deploying a couple of Redhat servers for a client. The support lifecycle really made me think twice about deployment with Redhat 9. How do I tell the client that it'll be good until April 2004?
So I tried Fedora 1 (waited for 1, Not the RCs). As soon as I noticed some of the controls which require root access and just failed to launch because it didn't prompt for root password, I concluded Fedora IS NOT READY FOR PRIME TIME.
Why give Linux a blackeye with a product (Fedora 1) in which fundamental things that used to work in the previous version (redhat 9) now don't?
So I went Debian. I hate to admit it, but I tried Knoppix 3.3, liked it and did the HD install. Everything worked. It takes a bit of adjustment since I am more used to Redhat, but there just isn't any alternative (in Redhat).
Knoppix 3.3, it is ready for the desktop and prime time, too bad Redhat isn't (it used to be).
My experience is that different telecos will allow DSL (usually SDSL or IDSL) only on business accounts. Not "home" ADSL accounts. It can be done. I've seen it done. I have clients that have it. The telecos just don't want to give it to you with out you giving them more $$.
The one thing I noticed that I haven't seen posted about here are the cliches were excessive, annoying and greatly detracted from my enjoyment of the movie.
The next is that I couldn't believe when I read before seeing the movie (this is/.) that one should walk out before the last 1/2 hour. This should be required.
If you thought the end of Re-booted (Reloaded) was lame and a let down. That was nothing compared to Revulsions (Revolutions). I was begging for the scene to end. The finale fight with Smith was pathetic.
My advise (and I am a Matrix fan) see it at a matinee (spelling?). Then wait for the DVDs.

So... Your main box is the default host behind your NAT router and you run IM. I hope you are running a machine with a built in firewall set to maximum.
If this is the case, why even have a NAT box.
Why not just plug your machine directly into your internet connection, make it multi-homed, route & NAT for your other machines behind it? Problem solved (for your main box).
While you are at it, just turn off the firewalling on your main box, that probably what's causing the problems in the first place.
Have you noticed who is running the DOJ. Do you really think there will be criminal investigations into a company who's CEO is a top campaign contributor to GWB and has promised to deliver the votes for GWB?
