I guess Broadband and DVDs will be replaced one day in the future by something better. What a futurist projection. Wow, that takes guts.
When they shrink memory cards like SD and xD to be able contain Terrabytes and be as small as a dime, maybe we will all have fantasic collections of movies, backups and such. The problem of cataloging will always be the major prob at home... now, where's my movie of "War and Peace"?
I have found that putting an old monitor on the curb overnight with a label that reads "$20 Yard Sale Saturday" will cause it to be GONE the next day. Voila!
I can assure you that Uzi and Amnon(his older brother) have had their names 50 to 60 years or so. In fact Amnon was setting up web sites when most of us were joining BBSes and before the name Nissan was a car to be bought. Nice guys if you ever get the chance to meet them.
let me see... (thinking) The last time I "accidentally " made a 2 minute LD phone call from my house using ATT it cost me $7. I know because i called them and asked them what the $7 was for. Now I can go to SAM'S CLUB and buy LD credit cards by ATT for 2.96 cents a minute.
(thinking again)... I think I will stop my LD service with ATT before they stop it for me.
Mr Ebert is just plain Wrong. I saw it last night (preview) and it was better than Spiderman2 which was wonderful, too. I give it 4 stars. Spidy 3 stars. Imagine??? 2 hours of movie and no sex in it, although it had its share of curse words. Now if someone could just lower the price of popcorn and a drink, I'd be happy.
If you think that is bad, you should have been with me reading 2 linear feet of little red Netware 2.15 to 3.0 installation/upgrade books and 40 5.25 inch floppy disks at 2am in the morning. I actually used "poist-it" notes on the floppies to keep everything straight. Arghhh! All the crossreferencing in the world didn't help me because it didn't crossreference properly just like your article stated for the free SUSe "no registration" offer. Oh? Now? Yes, we're up to 6.0 now and loving it.
It's like the old joke about the Knight leaving his wife in the castle while he goes on a crusade and having his best friend running up to him before he's completely gone exclaiming "Hey, the key to her Chastity Belt doesn't work!"
What conrete, brick, and glass "investments" need to be made to sell the same software over and over each year? I mean, everything M$ sells now should be pure profit since nothing new ever comes out of them anymore. Hence a cash cow.
Yes, TIVO has a little "glue on" IR device that changes the Cable box channels. It sits on top of the Cable box, and "peeps" over the edge at the spot where your remote IR would be aimed at.
This little device plugs into the back of the TIVO in a little jack.

Agreed...Just put the sticker on the package and let's see how many Nikon's are sold... and I love Nikons. Stupid move, Nikon, if you don't allow.

Absolutely The fastest and cheapest way. It'll be around for at least 20 years on servers around the world. Brilliant.
If you don't like the way Disney does things in the park then the Stay The F out. Simple as that.
Simply physically take the USB ports out of the machines = no storage device can be attached. Duuuuh.
Yes, Billy, we know you like it.
Equation of the year award goes to you. Hot damn. Booble, indeed.

Well, do you kick hin in the ass to reboot the thing?

Just wait until the RFID police track my purchases to the town dump... or do I have to keep all the boxes that I purchase?
I saw 300 feet as the outside limits on RFID.
Don't get married. ;-)
PEBKAC pronounced "PEBB KACK" stands for (as well) "Problem exists between Keyboard and Customer." That's 90% of the problems in a nutshell.
Sure there is... how do you think they wash their hands when they get dirty? Oh, you don't mean the soap!
It's a known fact that 90% of all statistics are just made up. No, make that 95%!

Correction: Writing on Slashdot seems to be getting more worser "ever" day.
The ark will be easy to find. It's the object with all the thousands of parking tickets on it. The neerve of parking there for all those years.
