I saw somthing like this in a very old Popular {Science|Manachanics} mag from around 1948, but was used for lamps instead of mice. The idea was to have a bunch of radio transmitters in a restrant and let customers carry around a lantern like device.
How long would the processing of such a thing take? Most U.S. gov. items take at least 3 weeks. If you wanted to change schools, would you have to wait a month for approvial?
This sounds like more "Big Brother" (not always bad).
I have found that using GtkFileChooser with most of the apps that come with Fedora Core 2 make it very hard to go to a directory. With the old file chooser, you could just type in where you wanted to go, insted of clicking away.
I've thought about having a bunch of nucular waste sent into the Sun. Sure, it might take a few years for a bucket of the stuff to reach the Sun but it might work.
It would seem that even an old VT100 would have sufficed,
A thrift store near me has their POS running a dos program in window mode on some very nice hardware (but a pretty bad OS:).
Ok, so I don't shop there very much, but I keep thinking those people are wasting their money. Why, they could just go on ebay and get a few '386s and load freedos on them.
Really, I've been trying to make somthing like this using 'ac' (actually it would 'killall X', or somthing) but FC2 somehow forgets to write to wtmp that the user has loged out.:(
That would be really nice. Not only do we not have to pay the license fee, but if the.org that "owns" the codec goes out of biz, (WinXP) SP2 would not cripple it:D.
I just got done reading one of the papers on MS (R)'s "Get the Facts" thing, and I noticed that the amount of time spent on the survay was quite short. If it was going to have any value, the survay (about what OS is cheaper. etc.) should have been double blind and, not tell anyone it was going on. Not even Microsoft(R) should have known when it was going to happen.
I'm not going to yack (talk) all night about how Microscot(R) payed those "people" at Forrseter. However the approch to gathering the data was really bad.
Dude, I like giving credit where "credit" is due.(R)
Mathemetician Claims Proof Of Riemann Hypothesis. First of all, to "prove" a hypothesis (or thorie or law) would not be with the scientific method. The sci. method is to have refinment etc. etc. if you "prove" that the stars circle the earth, what would happen when you find moons of jupider orbiting it?

It would make it easier for "New" Linux users, if there where a couple of CDs (or DVDs for the rich) of Linux with the book. SuSE, Mandrake etc. somthing that is easy to get running but has all the programs without paying extra (not somthing I can say about Linspire.)
However, IDG likes to put nasty (C) things on CDs with their books. Or are the dummies books published by Hungry Minds this year?
"Open Maps" would be very good if they allowed local people to update the maps in there area. Somthing like Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page.) One chalange would be to get the data precise.
I have been running Mandrake 9.1 for about two months and like it. Maybe its because I started out last April with Slackware 3.0 on a 386sx. But, postfix was not working "out of the box." Even for using the default hostname "localhost." That was all fixed with LinuxConf.
I've heard about Linspire (Lindows) and (IMHO)think that there more "we want to make big money."

The Linux Terminal Server Project would make it "easy" to have everyone be the same.
Unless I'm mestakenm, MS-DOS 6 had a sort of anitivirus program (yes more then fdisk)

I hope they would not fill the whole thing with ads like cable and 'dish TV.
Also, what would happen if $DVD_John got one of these?
How are they going to cool the reactors?

I have not tryed it yet but The Linux Terminal Server Project appears nice.
I could not help but thinking about an old story on that had somthing very much the same.

Knoppix will use a swap partition if it finds any. Why would a Windows(R) user have a swap partition?
But not if the video is encripted by the device number on the first TV its viewed on. :(
This kind of display would be huge, and better then most (if not all) displays I have seen.
My K6-3 400 (410.4 MHz according to /proc/cpuinfo) works good for me, at least it can run Tux Racer fine and Super Methane Brothers great.
