I wonder, everyone is talking about windows on PPC. But what about MacOS on an $600 computer? I know a few people, my self included, would like a macosx box, but find the price prohibitive.
That poor australian webhost...

For like $100 a month you get 2gb of bandwidth and 20meg of space for local hosting here in australia. That site will/went go down faster than a server on a C64. I hope someone has mirrored this!
I await the day when freenet becomes popular enough to work at a speed considered 'useable' to the average internet Joe. Insertions of information such as the diebold memo's can be completely anonymous, makeing sure there's no one to target with a law suit. The more people who use freenet 24/7 the better it gets. I'm sure theres plenty of slashdot'ers with unlimited and fast connections (unlike those stuck here in australia, where freenet eats into my quota like a fat man eat pancakes). Do the world a favour. Run freenet.
Is bigger and cheaper than your e-penis.
Seriously, if people are willing to spend whatever amount of money on a solution that does the job, who cares how it stacks up price/performance wise against another system?

Freenet does have one immediate advantage (though i'm sure you hardcore geeks won't appreciate it), Windows support.

I guess i just find it all so petty. If people don't want to research all their options then fine, they deserve to be ripped off.
