The Ti calcs had a wiered 'feature' that if you held down keys in a sequence you could get it to react as if another key had been pushed. The ON switch was the three keys in the corner.
Hours of endless fun seeing what wiered display you could get it to show by holding key combinations.
No, the checksum changes. Just the filesize and function of the file stays the same.
The post about swapping ADD and SUB function is correct as they have the same bit size.
Well this is just daft! How can IBM tell Microsoft customers to become potentially unsupported so that IBM software will work.
This is Big Blue flexing its corportate might so that it doesnt have to fix the workings of its own software and by coincidence tying in its customers to a PC support contract to boot.
If your company is updating from a six character password, its about time too! Six characters is WAY to low, especially if that standard applied to administrator or root accounts.
SANS now recommend using Passphrases, not passwords, as the LENGTH of the password, not the complexity gives the overall strength of the passphrase.
A 14 character password, to all intents and purposes, is uncrackable due to the length of time it would take to brute the password.
