"..... it is apparent that the
USA's corporations are trading in their long term
financial and industry growth for potential
short term profits." in one word, Duh. Its a sad state of the US system. My companys new VP has held positions in 4 companies in the last 5 years.(That was stated as proof of his experince when he was announced, what a joke) Given that track record where would be his motivation for long term profits for the company, assuming the trend of his employment continues.
One thing my college did was made by some grad students. It was an add on to the traditional web registration. What you would do is enter the courses you wanted to take. You enter the course number, not the section, the program came up with several combinations of class sections to fill your schedual. It would then show a week long schedual. This way you don't have to wade through all the offerings and figure out a schedual by yourself.(not that its hard just takes time) Usually one can find one combination that is good, if not just rerun the program and ask for more combinations!
Last time i checked any QAM ready (read digital ready) tuner can recive digital AND HD cable off my standard cable connection. I can recive all the major networks in HD! The only thing I can't recive is pay channels(example HBO) The reason is that a pay channel needs to be encrypted so that people who aren't paying for it can't get it. If somebody made a cable card compatable PCI card I would be able to tune PAY channels on a computer also. So while the parent has a valid point on pay channels the main body of his post is at least misleading if not wrong.
that is a slick idea, combined with power over ethernet. one wire to the unit. i'd love to see more things have one wire only, the spider web effect sucks, i'd like to see more of a hub and spoke for stuff. Of course the PC would need to be the center. And of course all this is just random dreaming.
In my personal opinion...the firefox logo is not very clear as to its usage, I'm a tech savy person and i have to stop and think, 'ok click the orange thing for internet' a generic globe icon may be better. perhaps making the fox green or something, any artist types have ideas?
...not that the 99% of the spamers lose money, i suspect most of them make money. They charge a company to spam for them, profit for the service of spaming. What you mean is that you think it only increases the buisness of 1% of the people that use spam to advertise.
descrete codes. It does sound interesting and a great way to avoid many problems. I've setup remotes with macros before. But I have never seen any that had the type of descrete on/off signals. links to products/ usage???
I'm not sure where you get your information, but last time i checked win 2k pro allowed 2 proc, win 2k server allowed 4 proc and win 2k advanced server allowed 8 proc....So going on that you do NOT need to install ADVANCED server for quad processor boxes. You would have to install server though.
The link you provided shows that the camera is wep enabled not sure about wpa..but its a start. I mean when people drive around its alot less time to just drive to the next house and peek around their wide open wireless network than break the wep plus mac filtering on a geeks network. (note: don't say it, mac filtering doesn't do to much for intercepting the stream, and wep is not unbreakable)
not that i'm an expert or anything. But when i've found others doing ill/breaking the law on the net and informed their ISP... The ISP is unwilling to do anything. Unless your the cops with a warrent they do nothing, and if you are the cops with one, all they will do is give you info on the person. The ISP won't do diddely. I Think they should just like you but they won't and don't.
Um...so after bending the card is ways it was not meant to be bent, it didn't work right. I am so shocked, abuse an item and it breaks, what cheap junk.
Nope this appears to be software accelerated dialup...as in special software on each end that compresses the data in one or more ways. Meaning you need more that just a broweser and a modem. This is done because the main bottleneck in is dial up service is...gasp...the analog phone line connection. They haven't written the software for macs at all yet. All the usual argument, low % of mac users, mac users can afford/have broadband.
Um slick...i'd hate to tell you that rh 9 allows you to use SATA drives...all you need is a driver. I have 3 SATA drives in my webserver now...unfortunaly its down right now because of bad SATA drives, but that is OT.
OK 300 gallons is almost a gallon a day, and like they are going to be busting down your door for making 301 or for even that matter 350 or 400...its like speeding. they just say it so when somebody is making 10,000 gallons a year for personal non-commercial use they can say thats too much. Remember the law is meant to be interpreted not followed to the "T" here.
There is little to no way for anybody but you to track every gallon of beverage made, and you don't keep records just say i'm on track to make about 300 gallons this year.
Also I wish I had enough time to drink a gallon a day 300 days a year. (and not gain weight, but thats another topic)
You are correct(how often do you hear that on/. ???) that every one gets a bigger straw but the well only fills so fast. BUT you should get a bigger pipe to your email server(could be good!!) ALSO in my area TWC hosts a mirror of the OSDN downloads on their network locally(and i suspect mirrors of other stuff) so in theory when i download any of that stuff the fill rate of the "well" does not matter, actually your analogy does not even work. This does not cover 90%+ of the net but it is notable...also i belive that others on ones subnet would get a better connection to.

Did anybody or any percentage of the people who held a valid recipt get the product??? I was not one of them, just wondering.

(sorry for poor links do a seach on pages for '4' or '8' respectivly.

Nice try but read the whole story first slick "I don't want a web or email-based service"
The phone both there would be alot cooler if it actually worked as a phone....and didn't tell you the damd code to enter after picking up the handset.

I'd also like to use SATA drives in my new server

For those that actually want to follow the link above remove the space between the zero and the comma.
