  1. Re:huh? on Symantec Antivirus May Execute Virus Code · · Score: 2, Insightful

  2. Re:Gave up because the installer wouldn't let them on iPod Shuffle RAID · · Score: 1

    It is a quote from National Lampoon's Animal House. John Belushi played Bluto, a drunk and stupid frat guy. The frat house was being shutdown by the dean and Bluto was trying to mobilize his frat brothers with this quote. The point was he was ranting and did not even know what he was talking about. It does not translate well and was not meant to offend anyone. Underlying meaning was the original poster was ranting, but didn't quite know what he was talking about. MY apologies.

    It is much easier to swap parts on a human than it it is to give something a soul.

  6. HTPC on Multi-Room Wireless Sound System? · · Score: 1

    Build a Home Theater PC. My choice, because I am smarter than I am rich, is a MythTv box http://www.mythtv.org/
    Or
    You could buy a Microsoft Media Center box.
    Either should stream content to any room over 802.11g. Just don't plan on doing anything else on the wireless network.

  8. Re:Canadian Government... on Governments Take Sides In Blackberry Patent Suit · · Score: 1

    This is not how patent law works. Each country has their own laws, policies and procedures for; performing patent searches, applications, prosecution, issuance, infringement, ... What you must remember is the US government is not the plaintiff in this case. RIM could be sued in Canada next or any where else NTP has filed and can prove priority.

  11. Re:GSM/GPRS on Vonage to Produce a WiFi Phone · · Score: 1

    This is already being done today. GSM/GPRS and CDMA phones are in development. The network operators want to off load their free nights and weekends. I have also seen a Bluetooth version. Gizmodo http://www.gizmodo.com/archives/motorola-cn620-sea mless-wifi-to-gsm-voice-calls-017270.php on the Motorola CN620. I guess that is what Moto means by seamless mobility.
