I have a small printing shop that switched 6 months ago. Our first thing was to make sure your bandwidth settings were set to the highest value. This can be set on the Vonage website and I last I looked there were 3 choices. I have seen new lines default to the lowest setting which is total crap. I have 3 lines on a cable modem connection and have never had call quality issues. I have had just about every other issue with ringing and connect delays, voicemail, caller id, etc. Most of the time you pick up and say Hello and the other person doesnt hear anything cause the call has not properly connected yet. But it saves me hundreds/month and the minor issues I have learned to live with.

When the DMD first came out, Larry Hornbeck, the inventor talked about applications like that at a presentation I saw in Houston, but I haven't heard of anything about it since.
Certain psychotic people seem to focus on the aluminum hat / radio waves are controlling me thing. It is quite universal. What is it that makes it a common theme ?
They were great machines in the day. It was really easy to grab video with them back 10 years ago when other machines were such a pain to work with. Too bad they couldn't adapt to the changes of the computing world.
I believe in evolution - it happens with germs all the time. but the history of human evolution is just some vague conclusions drawn from scant fossil evidence. Do I believe it ? Yes. Is it science ? NO.
Funny youshould ask, since I think parts of it are really not physics but math. All the stuff about exotic things like black holes are very loosely "verified". As far as I am concerned, something is a science if you can do experiments, not just make observations. You have to be able to first make a prediction, and then test it. And there are parts of astronomy that is not science or math, like looking for extra solar planets. This is just whatever it is. We will never be able to test any of it!!!
Intelligent design is nonsense. BUT evolution, based on fossil evidence is a soft science at best. YOU CAN'T DO EXPERIMENTS only make observations. So evolution from the viewpoint of how humans developedis not ahard science.
There actually was an issue that wasn't totally different with the SONY walkman. Back then the record industry was concerned about people taping albums and there is a story about it in the NY TIMES magazine around 1981, but it never mattered.
The article is ABOUT people switching to Linux. This means they have to go out and replace all of their external devices ? Good way to get people to make the switch. I think the attitude I've seen in this thread speaks for itself when it comes to answering the question of why Linux won't become mainstream.
I point out that I've had a problem with Linux and get jumped on by a million posts saying that I am dumb.
Just because it is true, and probably the #1 outstanding issue with Linux being used by non-geeks makes it flamebait ? Even I couldn't get my Olympus C-3030 working with Mandrake last year WITH the help of my system administrator.
They should only charge for articles that are true, or where the reporter actually did the work, instead of sitting at home in his flat in Brooklyn smoking dope.

Yes I see that there is a typo in my "typo". It was a legitimate misteak.
Two points about the book though. Even though I like it, the binding cracked after a week, and also there are many typoes, especially in the index.
ALL WIRES are a pain. Wireless will always dominate where possible to use. Just wait until wireless power is available...

According to your idea, Art history is science.

The Koreans are always making claims like this. In this case I read that there was a real problem with the myelin sheath development.

The number 666.
That there are quantum mechanical problems with having the tubes alligned and getting a good signal through them.

Until this problem is solved, Linux will be an outsider.
they don't discuss the bus problems that have been rumored about...
the stiff, lifeless George Lucas himself...
It starts the first intergalactic war.
I had a serious problem with my external drive, and lost some data.
Thailand did this 6 months ago!

This actually was first used at Los Alamos in part of the bomb project in WW II - see John Mcfees book "the curve of binding energy".
