  1. Lock box bolted to the floor on Ask Slashdot: Protecting Tech Gear From Smash-and-Grab Theft? · · Score: 2

    I have a similar problem. I drive a club cab pickup truck, so I don't have a trunk. What I did was I bought a First Alert Electronic Digital Security Lockbox model 3040DF. I found it at my local national hardware chain (the ornge one, not the blue one) on sale for $40. I bolted it to the floor in the back seat. It would be a bear to take the whole thing out.

  2. I know what you mean on Video Game Conditioning Spills Over Into Real Life · · Score: 1

    For years, I've been plagued with the overwhelming desire to run motorcycles off of the road a la "Spy Hunter."

  3. Any portable storage is good portable storage.... on Iomega Plans 20GB Portable Drives · · Score: 1

    as long as the kernel supports it!

  4. Already in the rumor mill...from February 99! on Apple, Pixar And Disney To Merge? · · Score: 1

    This one already hit the /. rumor mill. Check out:

    I guess it'll be news until they finally do become Ultimate MegaCompany, Ltd.

  5. Postscript of PDF on Publishing-Online or "Dead Tree" Format? · · Score: 1

    Well, either of these formats would give you the most platforms for the buck. I guess the problem them becomes how to profit from it. I suppose that you could simply have a pay-per-download approach, but that wouldn't eliminate passingof already-downloaded copies around.

    I guess you'll need to develop a PGP-capable PDF viewer ;)

  6. How does it REALLY stack up? on Trillian Project Release Linux for IA-64 · · Score: 3

    Is there any information on how the IA64 is supposed to perform compared to current 64-bit chips (like the Dec Alpha)? I mean, are we waiting around just to get another been-there-done-that?
