My dad is the tech admin for a small sized school district and I've helped him set up a Linux Terminal Server Project system for the libraries in the high school and elementary school. Once its up and running it works really well. The best thing is that you can lose the hard drives in the clients, and manage everyhting from one point. Only problem is that you need a mildly decent server. I believe this project is now compatible with Edubuntu, but we used Fedora.
My least favorite experience was when I had a hard drive that had the plastic around the power connector broken. Unfortunately, this allowed the power socket to be plugged in in backwards and one day right after I installed a new motherboard and hooked everything back up... You know the rest.
I go to my local Blockbuster quite a bit, and everytime im there the alarm goes off at least once without fail. The workers never do anything about it and just let people walk right out the door. It would be VERY easy to just put an extra DVD in your jacket pocket, rent another legitimately, and then walk right out when the alarm sounds.
I guess you could say that i am one of those people who have a problem waking up in the morning. Instead of using some crazy contraption, I just keep my alarm clock on a table across the room so I have to get up to shut it off.
I would gladly accept any kind of DRM that prevented me from sharing my music with others. I dont care about that. The only thing that I want to do is be able to convert the songs to my format of choice (mp3) and play them on all of my computers (I dont even care about burning CDs). As long as I can play my songs on my main Windows computer, my Archos, my Linux TV media computer, and the Linux box in my car i am satisfied.
I'd love to start using one of the encryption plugins for gaim. The problem most people have, I think, is that they can't even get their chatting partners to switch away from that monstrous program AOL provides, let alone get them to install a plugin. Its frustrating that in order to be secure, you need to make other, possibly less tech savy, friends and business partners do so also.
Didn't some cars have a plain keyless switch on the dash you can use with the actual key still in your pocket? I think this might be the reason for the RF.
I also had a problem with ground loops on the computer I put in my car (a whine that increased in pitch with the egine speed). I got a ground loop isolator on ebay and the problem completely disappeared. It connects in-line to the audio cable running from my trunk to the head. Maybe something like this could help with your guitar equipment if a ground loop really is the problem.
Im using Alltel with a Motorola V60i cell phone and aftermarket USB data cable. This phone has the capability to act as a USB modem which I have gotten working in both Linux and Windows. Then I simply dial into the ISP i get for free from my school, using my regular wireless minutes (hopefully offpeak). For windows I googled for a motorola usb cell modem driver and found one to support the v60i. In fedora i set up a ppp conection using/dev/ttyACM0 (you need the cdc-acm module, plain acm on redhat). Yes these connections are painfully slow but i just use it for emergencies mostly anyway.
I think the main reason is that Nintendo did such a good job blocking all this stuff. Sega making a mistake in Phantasy Star was the only way we got to run any code at all. Now that there is code out there written for the GC, I guess theres more of an incentive to find a better way to run it.
As of now there is no way to put any disc into the gamecube that wasn't made by Nintendo. All the images you can download can only be run over the ethernet card served from your computer. They run ok except for poor sound quality (the GC's nic currently only runs at 10mb/s using Phantasy Star).
I'm using Freevo and Redhat 9 on my DVR. With 2 120G Hard drives theres plenty of room for all my mp3's, recorded tv shows, Pictures, and Divx movies. All these are of course accessed using Freevo's interface.
I havn't used MythTv so I can't compare the two.
I'm sure others will be able to.

Wow, thats amazing! You must have upwards of 3 or 4 functions in that thing.
I zoomed in all the way to my house and all I saw was swiss cheese.
For a mini-itx computer that is one giant case.
No Dave, I don't want to go to the grocery store today.

I'll be damned if you catch me rewinding ANY media ever again.
...Not just for old people anymore.

Computer!? You said the secret word!!! AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

And Thunderbird 1.0.2 also
Oh yeah? It raped my mother and laid eggs in my brain.

Then again i doubt anyone here is running anything older than win2k/ Macos X unless they are a tightarse.
You're supposed to pay for Windows?

I loved this game when I was little
