Well generally if a animal can see and you make a sudden move they flinch dont they? When blind mice start getting visual reflexes then you know they can see again.
(No I dont know if thats how they do it but its a good assumption)
Well our house was two story with many jacks on each story. It was rather difficult to wire. One cable goes outside stapled to the bottom of a balcony for ~5m.
We got the electricians to do it along with some antenna coax, powerpoints and a few other things at the same time.
AUD $1,500 to wire up a house. We got it done a few weeks ago to replace our 11mbps wireless. This is a big house too and the wires went from one side of the house to the other on both stories.
What house needs a stretch of cable longer than 100m?
I havent RTFM but I assume that this standard has the same 100m limitation. The signal just grows too weak at long distances and when your transmitting at high speed you need all the signal you can get.
Yep. Gigabit over Cat 5e. Our entire house is wired up with the stuff. I've maxed it out at 60MB/s before my CPU hit 100%.
Its not a small house either. The strech of cable my computer has to the server must be at least 10-15m long. No packet loss, great ping and way too fast.:D
Multicast is in the best interest of the ISP. It means that their backbone carries less traffic which allows them to spend less money expanding their capacity.
Why not P2P? Multicasting is just a packet with multiple destination addresses. P2P has a seeder who sends a chunks of a file to people who dont have the chunk. Being able to upload the data once but have it addressed to many peers allows files to be transfered far faster.
I dont see any flaw in my logic but do tell me if you find a problem with using Multicast for P2P.
Speaking as someone will eventually go blind (Retinitis Pigmentosa) current websites are hell.
Open up Lynx and surf sites you often visit. Unless they make some attempt to be standards compliant (doesnt have to validate however) it comes out as complete nonsense.
ADA is good. It forces businesses to pick up their act to produce standard websites (which is good for everyone) and when they dont it offers blind people some comedic relief as they sue the companies in question.:D
I was thinking about this myself. Just have a online translator which recieves a request, queries the MS servers, converts the data format and you've got textured buildings on Google Earth.

Its not a computer game. Being smarter, stronger and more muscular doesnt guarentee that you'll make it to the next level.
It sucks to live in a world where people cant accept their differences.
We all have to be 'equal' for some reason when its plainly obvious we are not the same.
Yay! I have a bump on the back of my head. Me > you. ;)
I too would like to hear more about it. I think I have heard its name before but I didnt bother to remember it.

They dont have to last too long. Just long enough to figure out where the fault is.

The other two wires are for power. Notice how the phone works during a blackout?
Do tell me how using the other two wires goes though. I think you'll have a lot of fried DSL hardware.

Guess what I'm using right now. :)

Someone uploads a piece of a file and its addressed to multiple peers who dont have that piece.
You need to think outside the box with these things. Just because its not what multicast was designed to do doesnt mean that it wont work well.
Its people like Dvorak who are extremely dangerous as they can create very effective FUD.
Such a kernel module would have to be open source which allows it to be cracked (relatively) easily.

Multicast is a good example of something new in IPv6.
:D
It means less bandwidth consumption for stuff like streaming audio/video.
It also means that P2P is far faster.
At least with IPv6 there is a *LOT* more addresses so trojans and viruses cant just sit there scanning ip ranges for new computers.
I agree. We have two Canon DSLRs and we love them.
Yeah lets hope that Vista gets rid of IPv4 and then Linux gets rid of Vista.
If we can pull it off the benefits will be wonderful.
Still dont you prefer Google as your home page compared to live.com?
If Google doesnt have 3d textured buildings in their labs I will be very suprised.
They have put the capability in with Google Earth 4 and they certainly have the data and processing power to do it.
Engineers will be wanting to the millimeter not to the nearest inch.

No need for a automated ActiveX control.
But by trying not to miss the next big thing they are infact shafting themselves.
The difference is people WANT Google as their home page. People dont want live.com.
All the desktops under my influence use Google as the home page.
