Not only that but I think you have to be a bit of a wordsmith too. Being able to quickly redact and react to the world of interest to your company. I am a proponent of companies blogging in the sense that it may mean a reduction in meaningless marketing. Consider it like a good salesman who is passionate about his product and can convey his enthousiasm and highlight the important aspects of the product. For example a good blog for RedHat could track the open source movement in corporate environments, this could help to spread the news and gain general acceptance for the product and the segment as a whole. Apple has a lot of succes with blogging, except it's free and they don't know the blogger.. sometimes they disagree with the blogger but it's attention grabbing marketing nonetheless..;)
As with printed media, blogs suffer the fact that quantity does not equal quality and hence the selection of bloggers will now indeed be on a you-know-who-know basis, it's a question of trust I guess. In future these functions may formalize and we may see assesments geared for this kind of redactionary work. Perhaps journalist schools will embrace the medium, maybe they already have. For ommercial schools in the US this would be a good time to get started with a program.
The problem with airport extreme is that the chipset manufacturer, Broadcom, refuses to open the driver specs. Other than that, you can get everything working, you need wlan then most usb stick type adapters will be functional.
Yellowdog has a list of supported hardware as I recall.
damn right he was too... shoulda got Jabba on they way out to the fastest hunk a junk in the galaxy whilst he had a chance... but then again, Obi-wan shoulda finished off Skywalker at the lava flow...
Indeed, although I must add that, with the exception of the airport extreme, the iBook from apple is extremely well supported with a variety of Linux distributions. Most noteworthy being Yellowdog who also provides 1st rate vendor warranty and support.
Don't skip the sociopolitical commentary of Dune. Let's see... valuable substance, used for damn near everything, only found in a desert place, guarded by fierce people with a suspiciously Arabic language... Nope, no idea what he was talking about there.
There may not be a "cracker of mass destruction" but I do note that over the last year I have seen ip's in my intrusion detection systems coming from china, indonesia, hungary, pakistan, malaysia, russia, taiwan, hong kong, india... usually just a couple thousand attempts at a time to shake up ssh or rape my mailserver but still, this shows that the digital divide is dissipating on the dark side at least.
I have no clue as to what these countries represent in terms of actual security breaches as my systems haven't actually been breached but they are trying and there's a lot of 'em...
Yep this would work except they are hidden files and Finder doesn't like'em... of course having a Unix underbelly means you can use tools like konqueror and mc to manipulate files.
On this note... has someone figured out how to get fish:// urls supported on OSX(tiger)??
alternatly, has anyone been succesful in mounting their own "idisk" server?

ROFL!!
With all the jobs being sent overseas to dirt poor filthy countries like India, who has cash anymore?
uhm, well if the mice are made there then they could be simple and cheap.. of course if they are made here, then would be complex and expensive but there would be jobs to pay for them.. so don't keep the mice cheap!
Vote for the 300$ mouse Now!!
My iPod is filled with my own ripped MP3's, and copy fine back and forth using iTunes (the program)
which version of Itunes/pod firmware?
I have the latest Itunes (tiger) and 2.1 firmware on my 3rd gen and I cannot copy from the ipod back to Itunes within the Itunes application. You have utils like podripper that will help you but the Itunes application doesn't support this (anymore)

must.. resist.. it's wrong... it's not the Open Source Way!
*Palpatine's voice*
Ha! there is much the Open Source Masters won't tell you..
Um.. I thought the PowerPC architecture was an open architecture...(with Darwin SourceCode fully available in addition to IBM's Linux Source Code) but hey, maybe I live in a different universe.
I hear Cuban cigars aren't all that anymore, as many Dominican farmers perfected their tobacco crops.
you hear lies my friend.. Partagas Culebra and Cohiba Lancero still OWN the true cigar smokers heart... if you can get your gritty little hands on 'em that is..
and really, the Culebra is the most exquisite of all cigars, make the effort, find one and see for yourself.
and now we can spread Linux through the revolution.. uh huh.. and linux is out for world domination.. uh huh..
wait a minute ...
it is, right?
out for world domination?

499 too much for you? You shouldn't be spending your money on a computer...
What improved features? Take one for a spin, they're pretty complete...

LOL!
I guess that may be a case...
Foundation was earllier as I recall..
But then you could also draw paralels with LOTR saga..
umm. Greeedo bit the dust in episode IV right? Bug-eyed bounty hunter...
There is no Osama on Arrakis..
well the argument made by the moviemakers upon review of Lucas' first script was that they feared the risk of plagiarism lawsuits.
On the note of plagiarism:

http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2002/05/10/1021002
and last but not least:
http://www.jitterbug.com/origins/dune.html
Actually it was because of plagiarism... check who the co-author is of the script and when he hooked up with lucas...
Thank god Han Solo didn't sing! Patrick Stewart was bad enough as Guerney Halleck!!
Yah.. and the guy REALLY came up with it all is dead, his name was Frank Herbert....
Star Wars was rejected by moviemakers on first draft because of the plagiarism, only after a significant re-write did they want to go forward...
The real prequel is called Dune.
