Theres a better (i did _not_ say faster) alternative to SCSI. Its called USB. Its fast enough for CDR and Scanners. You can hang 127 devices off it. And almost every computer sold today has it. Did i mention you can hot swap devices and they configure themselves automagically...

Hello everybody out there using minix - I'm doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won't be big and professional like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones.
I live 45 mi form VAFB adn i watched it go up. After about 20 sec it changed from a fuel that make a puffy white trail to an almost clear one. Anybody know why? Was it solid at first and then changed to liquid? Mark Duell

Now why can Netscape export it? Maybe the figure Netscape crashes so much it dosent matter...
I got this with Visual Route on Win 98: Report for hurd.zugzug.com [24.113.102.239] Analysis: IP packets are being lost past network "(private use)" at hop 14. There is insufficient cached information to determine the next network at hop 15. Connections to HTTP port 80 are being rejected.
I could swear that ISDN lines in my area used to be $40/month and $0.4/MB... Probably the same idea... The phone company made a killing until the cable company buddied up with @Home to do cable internet for $40/month...

Hey, before you post, you guys should actually look at the links:) The overclocked 486 was a hoax...or so the last line ( Well, actually that isn't entirely true...all the notes, recordings, videotape and logs from the experiment were destroyed when the processor blew. Everything posted here is taken from eyewitness accounts ) leads you to believe...
Among amalysts there are good ones and bad ones. Just like any other field. Look at the new reporters. There are good reporters like the BBC and Salon, and there are bad ones like ZDnet.
Please dont moderate me down to -99 (it'll hurt my karma) or start a flame war. Just trying to share my thoughts.
I think its a great idea to have online voting, but there are still too many problems. First off, no operating system is "unhackable" there will always be people hacking it. Second, Denial of Service attacks (there was a/. story on this not too long ago, but I dont care to find it). Its fairly easy to take over 100 servers and use them to ping flood the voting servers. Lastly, and probably most importantly, how do they know you are you? Your Social Security number is know by your school and your employer. One easy hack and someone could be you. Your drivers license is known by every cop that pulls you over. Fingerprints and retina scans are expensive and require a huge database to be stored on every terminal.
I think its a great idea to make voting easier to do, but there are too amny problems today...maybe in 2010...

I think the human eye is 5000x5000 pixels per eye so it definately has a LONG way to go...
I saw on TV that hey have decided tyhat he is NOT a good canidate for the surgery... Some other guy is gonna get it...
I think something went whacky to the scripts, it was marked as Flamebait and went UP one... Someone made a little error in the code...
I could swear that ISDN lines in my area used to be $40/month and $0.4/MB... Probably the same idea... The phone company made a killing until the cable company buddied up with @Home to do cable internet for $40/month...
From what i have seen, the K6-3 has the same problem the G4 does. When it hits 500 MHz, the onboard cache goes crazy.
