    And I doubt the data on the platters is encrypted. Password maybe, but not the data most likely.

  2. Re:Drops the fine? on Microsoft Drops Blaster Author's Fine · · Score: 0

    Disable the USB ports from the BIOS like some machines let you do. Or remove the drivers for the USB controllers. Of course there's the "what if they use a USB keyboard and/or mouse" problem. Maybe you could remove just the usb mass storage driver or something. Though a friend said in the group policy you CAN disable the ability to use usb flash drives. Could be wrong though.

  3. Re:Windows' memory mismanagement woes on Comprehensive Guide to the Windows Paging File · · Score: 0

    In the old days of MacOS this value was adjustable from the Memory control panel, along with other crap like the VM size, some weird memory management option noone understood and RAM disk sizes. Shame Windows doesn't have a single control panel to control all that.

    That reminds me of what happened the last time I went to Publix, the bagger's nametag said "Matt v2.0b".

    IIRC, HP Europe supports Mandrake on their systems...

    Funny why you people still post goatse links when they're dead now. In fact, when you goto goat.cx now it simply only says "be right back" you insensitive clod!

  7. Re:High-power RF interference on Build Your Own Cell tower · · Score: 0

    Its because his Treo only puts out around .8 watts, which only can be heard if the speaker's amplifier amplifies it. Now if it was much stronger, it'd make the noise if the speakers were off. Its all in the amplifier.

  8. Re:the IIfx effect on Apple's Dev. Tools Hint @ Dual-core G5 & Quad Mac · · Score: 0

    Yeah, the IIfx was dropped by then. In 1993, the fastest mac available was the Quadra 840AV, which was much faster and cheaper than the IIfx and only cost a little over $4000 when it was launched instead of $10,000.

    1990 dollars you mean. By then the IIfx was killed off, and the Quadra 840AV of 1993 was a lot faster and only cost around $4000.

    Actually I was refering to the design. The design part is done in Japan.

    Yeah, but having traveled to the PC design division in IBM's RTP location... they informed me the ThinkPads were done by IBM Japan, so I'm curious if this will mean anything...

  13. Re:Yeah but cheap quality on Nokia 6820 Wireless Messaging Handset Reviewed · · Score: 1

    I agree. I don't like nokias either, due to their crappy creaky dust gathering "XPress-On" covers. They also just rerelease the same thing over and over again these days. Nothing of good value. Pathetic 128x128 screens on Series 40, which JUST became 65k color. I'll stick with my SE T637 thank you very much.
