I used to work for Zenith back in '96 and we tried to recognize logins by the way people typed. It successfully recognized when I logged in with just my left, right or both hands. There was a problem though. Good typists type fast. Because of that, good typist filled the keyboard buffer and the software saw them all good typists as typing at the same speed. Looks like keyboard buffers are faster now. We were using a lightning fast 16MHz 386 at the time. Ah, the memories of starting a compile overnight and it not being finished when you come in the next morning.

Talk about timing...
4 weeks ago I was diagnosed with MRSA. They kept me in the hospital in isolation for the first week. The MRSA was located in my right foot. It was so severe that the had to amputate it to in order to save my life. The worst part of the ordeal was spending 2 weeks without Slashdot. The best part was the spongebath with 3 of the nurses.:-)
Now I'm at home taking a antobiotic called cefazolin every 8 hours until the remainder of the infection clears up. But now I get to spend all day reading Slashdot. I guess somepeople would give their right foot to be able to do that.;-)
Hey, what do you expect me to do, cry about it? Just keeping my spirits up.
2. MP3 Toilet
Technically, it's not a stand alone MP3 player, but rather one that works with your toilet. This SD memory based player attaches to the wall above your toilet and includes a special receiver that goes under the toilet seat, how sanitary.
Wally: (to PHB at meeting) My business plan for the year is to stress test our network. I'm going to transfer large files from some of the busiest servers on the internet. Wally: (to Dilbert after meeting) I came this close to making it my job to download naughty pictures all day. Dilbert: I would have had to kill you.

Your keyboard is more dirty than your toilet

That's 200 for the screen...
$200 for an LCD monitor? New? Where?
I've been waiting for the price to come down.
