I don't know why you guys are moding it 'Funny'. He is being quite serious. In fact, I just watched a friend link to his comment. He then just disapeared. I guess this things are serious.
If I remember correctly, my browser already has this feature built in, I think I can get to it with a simple
CTRL + F
Now, where can I get some real news?
At my school (PA College of Technology), in the Computer Science area, every table has one outlet per chair. (And with people skipping or not needing an outlet, you could easily use 2 or more.)
My college (pct.edu) requires now that all students (in computer feilds) have a laptop, so many students have laptops here. Also, so far, i haven't had much of a problem because mine isn't the best (or best looking) laptop here. Then again, maybe runing Linux on it scares some people off.
"Like many others, I'm shipping off to college for the first time in a few days..."
You are just leaving now? I am starting my third week!
Oh, I get it, you submitted it 3 weeks ago and it was just put up now. By now, you've already had your laptop stolen, so this is no use to you now.
Most laptops fall in the 2-3 hours or less range, or the 4-5 or more range. The primary difference between the two is the processor. Processors designed for laptops (Pentium M, or Centrino) will give you the longer battery life, and the laptop will generally be lighter. The processors designed for desktops (Pentium 4) will give you a shorter battery life, and will weigh more, but will be cheaper.
I own a Dell Inspiron 8600 powered by a Pentium M processor. I have watched full movies and only used about half of my battery life.

"Windows Web server is more secure than a similarly set-up Linux server"
So, they had to degrade the secruity on the Linux server to allow it to be "similarly" set up to the Windows server?

Am I the only one who first thought that this had something to do with wardriving?

Q: If I leave Oakland County, will my computer work?
A: Of course. But you might have to revert back to a wired connection, at least until the whole nation goes wireless.

I don't know how stupid it would feel since the current bid is $15,099.

Thank you /.
Dear Visitor,
We're sorry we missed you. Tonight our site appeared on Slashdot.org.
And, in its infinite bounty, Slashdot brought down our server. We feel your pain. Literally.

Who would have ever thought?
"The No. 2 wireless carrier, Verizon Wireless, is also controlled by a Bell company, Verizon."
AOL is still around?
By way of Canada?
Good point, but you should be browsing at -1 anyways, so you shouldn't miss it.
I believe that my local library only lets people browse with Netscape.
You ment "-1 Evil", right?
How dare you. (now I can't get to my account and rate pictures, like the one that I took and is posted (one student at a time))
Finally found the money Micro$oft stole from me!
This isn't off topic this time.
One of the two models includes a firewire port.
"Samsung has also included a built-in microphone..."
That's odd, my cell phone has had a built in microphone for ages.

Shouldn't that "A choice of 5 mp3's to kill their server with and [entertain] thousands of /.ers"
And:
tipsa=new Array(5);
average geek. Now when we burn ours out by staring at bright monitors in dark rooms for countless days on end, we have a replacement.
So, you just post a list and no links, the /. zoombies will just skip over them like they do to article text.
