When I was in school, our wireless network worked very well unless you dropped the cassette tape as you were walking over to the other TRS-80 in the classroom.
The only hassle was the NikeNet had to be reinstalled every morning and was sometimes stinky after gym.
One good quack deserves another!
Both are founded on illogical systems and merely pull users into repeated sessions of treatment which are profitable for the practioners but ultimately do little to solve the problems of the patients.
I built my case out of chicken wire and straw which gives me that Faraday cage effect and dampens sound. My friends have tried wood and brick with less success.
I have a 17" lcd imac at home. I would have preferred a more powerful machine but silence is golden if you live in a rathole apartment like mine. It has a fan (variable speed I think) but I have never noticed it before. As I sit here typing on my silent Titanium Powerbook, my work provided PIII is whining away like lawnmower in the background.
I can see this monstrosity outside my office window. It is a joke to many and a great embarassment to others. ODU is a small urban campus and the maglev line runs 4-5 blocks through it crossing a busy road that separates the main campus and newly contructed student housing and business district. It has one stop near the middle and stations at either terminus.
I think it was conceived as a showcase item more than a solution to a real problem. Unfortunately, it now stands a monument to bureaucracy.
Nitrogen narcosis does not result from a buildup of the gas but from higher partial pressures. Thus going deeper makes it more likely, but the effect is immediate if it occurs at all.
People spend days or weeks working at deeper depths than the scooter goes. You become "saturated" and have to undergo slow decompression before surfacing.
I spent some time in the Aquarius with no ill effects other than some interesting fungus blooms.
The larger squids tend to tast very crappy according to Clyde Roper, a Smithsonian Biologist that works on cephalopods. They apparently use ammonia like compounds to achieve near neutral buoyancy.
Crappy robot sez: "On the same note as you were addressing, if the G5 was such a performance giant, then why aren't we seeing these things in datacenters? If Apple is the consistant leader in performance and reliability, why don't we see more Apples out there?"
Yea! If they are so great why doesn't somebody build a supercomputer out of 'em? Err.... nerver mind

This comment is why TS stays the way it is. Your hard drive was probably fine. They send you a new one, get you off the phone and you are happy, just like the article says.
I, for one, welcome our new death-satellite overlords.
Riots in LA, zap 'em.
Third party convention in Des Moines, death rod from above!

well, like I said, I am missing the obvious.
my school science teacher always threatened us with a ruler if we put independent variables on the y-axis, thus I can't think the way you suggested!

Unless of course it is in solid form. It will slowly sublimate but would remain for a long time. IF melted it would be as "clean and fresh" as when it froze.
This is OT but it has always bugged me when someone describes something difficult as having "a steep learning curve". If you graph mastery of a subject vs. time, the curve would be steepest for EASY subjects not hard ones.
Am I missing the obvious? Most people that I ask about this just think I am a crank.

On a serious note, don't forget cordless phones. I can turn mine on and off and see my signal strength go nearly to zero.

Oink.
Gives a whole new meaning to "Fanboy" doesn't it.

IIRC they were also concerned about power/heat issues since they would be housed in a metal tube

I think 1.0 forwards is metric for 1.0 backwards, hence the NASA mixup.
