You can see just about every new corporate fad that hits your office as it roles off the press. You can get it for free just by breathing. You can see where they come up with their hair-brained ideas. And who knows, if you are in the right position, you might be able to point out that the latest fad works great for company X profiled in the Magazine, but doesn't fit your companies specific needs.
I bought a cheep system with Linspire on it. I thought it would have better odds of having hardware supported by other Linux distributions. I wiped Linspire & installed Centos.
Seriously, who has the time to look up every piece of hardware on a Hardware Compatability list.
Probably the best gift you could give a son or daughter is to give him/her a very common first and last name i.e. John Smith or Jane Smith. Obscurity by information overload seems like the easiest way to protect one's reputation.
I think they already started with their unreliable e-mail service. Around the first of the year, I started to get a bunch of AOL bounces. It wasn't all of the AOL addresses, but a good chunk of them. And it was inconsistent. Here is an example address. I told him to complain to AOL since he is actually a subscriber, but I doubt it will do much good with that behemoth.
Either
Start charging AOL subscribers for joining the mailing list & explain to them why OR
Put into the troubleshooting FAQ that AOL is their problem & give a list of alternatives ISPs they can switch to.
I don't know why everyone is going crazy over this stuff. I am personally concerned that mass media will get the wrong message. There are a lot of people writing/researching passionately about things they think everybody ought to know. For many people, having their ideas shared is more important than receiving attribution. Ideas should be free. So please, copy our stuff.
It appears that our man in question, living in Blue Ash resides near where this dot on the map sits.
Although trees to obscure some of the houses, it appears fairly dense. Also the plot size for houses along his stretch are about 40-45 feet in width and 160 feet in depth. How unrealistic is it that someone in a nearby house (or kid) that is fully aware of the risks, is taping into his wireless access point?
802.11g suggests that you can get up to 200 feet and still connect. Minus walls etc about how many houses do you think could have done it? What about the distances on other wireless standards?
You may laugh, but it's all fun & games until you wake up one day to find somebody stuck John Travolta's mug on your face. You couldn't beat the scientologists off you.

Where's Jerry Taylor when you really need him?
We called today's version of Nanotech chemistry. I think the term still applies.

They are just mixing up another batch of Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster.
Sounds like a job for the Video Professor?

"And for your own custom mouse, with the genetic modification of your choosing, expect to pay as much as $100,000"
That makes for a bunch of excited furry fans.
But no one ever got fired for choosing AC.

Kind of like popcorn, and yes I am referring to soybean oil burning fuel.
...hackers report you!
...I finally see a cure for Social Security problem. 100% Social Security Tax on the dead. They are going to need it once they are revived.
...that you aren't human?
Robot, Alien, Alien-hybrid, clone, some poor shmuck who has replaced the real you with implanted memories waiting for the trigger to set you off.
Finally there is a solution for dups on slashdot!

Just make sure you CYA & site your sources.
Come on. Let the little bastards run free. None of this, I don't want the to turn out like me BS.

...until little Johny trys to do a science fair project on ID and gets a failing grade for not following the scientific method.
