SGI 1600SW - 17" extra-wide display for ~ $1500 direct from SGI, ~$1400 from dell.com (out of stock). Make sure you get the multi-link adaptor. You'll also need a video card that supports DVI (and LCDs, some cards have DVI but can't run some LCDs).
Not much. You can find sites that use PHP that charge less than $10/month. Some less than $5/month. What professional can't afford that? Somewhere on php.net there is a list of providers so look there. I'm sure some of these same providers provide mod_perl.
Yeah but realistically the CD is just extra junk to anyone who has a decent connection (cable/dsl/wireless/dorm). I'd wager that most linux users are pretty techy and tend to have a decent connection somewhere (at least at work). If I were on a modem I'd be happy to get the CD but when I've got SDSL sitting here I'd rather go out and get the lastest version of whatever toy they are writing about or "apt-get install" it instead (gotta love debian).
Have you ever read the Linux Journal? It's pretty good, not too expensive to subscribe to, and you get access to all the back issues on interactive.linuxjournal.com. I'd have to say I enjoyed the magazine more a couple years ago than I do today but I'm not sure if that is due to my "advancement" or their slight decline...
If I were to pick on the LJ I'd say the newer look and feel gets annoying when some articles on the first page waste 1/2 the page with some graphics (not even screen shots). They don't do that often but when they do... Also they seem to be excited about filling up the front of their magazine with "factoids" about linux. Some are interesting but in general they tend to waste space with extra crap (in my opinion). I'm holding the jury on the columnist on the last page but so far I'd have to say his writing is a little too far out there... The other trend is their approach now to focusing on one big topic for each issue. That is fine with me but make like 1/2 the articles apply to that topic, not all of them. Also their reviews usually are pretty sucky in some ways and feel too amateurish (yeah, i can't spell).
Putty is the *worst* software you've ever used? That statement makes you look like a moron. Putty has some rough edges (changing settings in saved sessions is a pain) but it doesn't crash. I think a big 'ol CRASH would be required for any program to make it onto my worst software list.
Putty is small (so, as others have pointed out, you can put it on your www and run it from anywhere), fast, and free. What is not to like?

The only problem with the iBook is that the screen resolution is 800x600, right? If it were 1024x768 I'd consider it... But right now laptops are starting to get much bigger screens. See the Dell Inspirion 7500/8000 with the mamoth 15" LCD (I know the new titanium apple laptop has a big screen and it is *sweet* but it is pricey too).
I know it is unfair to compare an iBook to a higher end PC notebook but even PC notesbooks in the iBooks price range can be found with 1024x768. Don't get me wrong - I'd buy an iBook like that over a crappy low end PC notebook but not with a small screen.

This leaves me wondering who works at DirectTV! Obviously some very smart people at that company. Personally I think the people who hacked DirectTV to get free service got what they deserved to a degree. Of course now they can figure out how to hack the next generation (if possible). Dynamically updating the code in the receivers is a brilliant strategy...
Chalk one up for DirectTV. Lets see if the hackers (crackers) can get their TV back!
12.00$ CDs? Where do you find such things? All the big chain stores seem to charge 16-19$ *per* cd! The cost of media has dropped too, it is possible to get blank CDRs at 15-20 cents.
Well what else is he supposed to do? Can't you imagine some bumble fucks in Iowa wanting more junk mail?
Obviously we can question were that fact came from (the DMA) and then conclude (as intelligent readers) that the number is doubtful but does have a slight chance of being possible.
We are talking LAPTOPS here - just go ahead and bit the bullet - setup a database with all the makes and models. It isn't THAT much work. Especially when it is vital to your business. Also this would be a HELL of a lot easier than detecting the correct hardware under windows... Least IMHO.
My god that video quality is horrible. How did they mess up the sound *so* much? Simply amazing... Sounds like "fly wars" at times plus a bit of odd voice compression. Real Video @ 20.0 Kbps is horrible...
Jeez the mods are out in force. Can't we post brief replies to people who ask for more information? The post above this says "MySQL!" in terms of competition for mSQL. WTF is up with the mods on crack.
Thanks for backing me up. I too wonder WTF is up with the moderators sometimes. Sure my post is brief but I'm happy mSQL is back. Competition is good because:
Lets face it - each open source database (mSQL, MySQL, PostgreSQL, etc) can only really be innovative in a couple areas without experiencing growth problems in the form of numerous bugs, etc. (I'm talking short term of course, long term each will adopt the others great features). So competition is good because we get different projects focusing on the same general area but doing things in different ways.

No, nobody else patented it because it wouldn't hold up in court as the finding in this story shows! What are you missing? Some brain cells?
Yeah, yeah... I realize this is back in the day and all that but still...

That IP (207.46.230.218) is working for right now for me to get to the MS home page.
Of course you want one that can decode Quicktime 4 with the Sorenson codec. Well, this can't, but take a look and see what it can decode...

Bleem! won the law suit or they wouldn't be around today.
Or 80 cents in quantity.
