So much of the real world testing on new kernels comes only after its been released, and even then it doesn't hit Joe Sixpack's machine for several months.
One of these days I am going to meet Joe, and I am going to complement him on his Abs.
I do too. If the neighborhood is all-white, I don't want to live there. I am a Caucasian. I decided early on that I want a more diverse area for raising my kids. It has worked out very well. E pluribus unum.
I'm glad to know it isn't just me. I have an Asus Netbook with integrated Intel video. It happens about 1/3 of the time I suspend. I accidentally figured out I could switch to console VT and kill Xorg. I'll look for the bug on Launchpad and add my $.02.
I hate Windows explorer. I really wish they would add back Winfile.exe, just add long-filename support. I always had two-panes, side by side in a single window.
Since they haven't, the first thing I do is install PowerDesk. It costs about $29, but it is worth it. I setup my two-pane view in a single window, with drive icons and other shortcuts on the powerbar above.
PLEASE don't tell me how you can open up two explorer windows and place them side by side. That's a nightmare when you have many windows open.
Total Commander is also good.
Most of the time I run Ubuntu, so this doesn't come up much anymore. But I'm also in school, which apparently is sponsored by Microsoft, so I keep a Windows box around for that - and a few games!
Syncronys Softram - twice the reported Ram! How do they do it? Magic!
Personally, I always liked Hurricane. It was one of the few that seemed to actually make a difference.
I have DirectTV.
I have a DVD-Writer I used to use like a VCR. I would set it to record my favorite shows.
I can no longer use my DVD-Writer that way, since the built-in tuner cannot tune DirectTV shows.
Thus it now can only be used to record what is on the channel I am watching (hit the record button).
I never hear this issue discussed. I never thought about it when i switched to DirectTV. Oops! I guess I will have to rent my DVR from DirectTV for 5.95 a month. Talk about vendor lock-in!

I am glad the Jimmy Hoffa finally came back down.

In the year 2035, there will still be a large number of speculative tech articles predicting ridiculous things in the decades to come. Really!
I can't see my data! Help, I have a bag over my head and I can't see my data. What should I do!

"we haven't a clue whats going on but reality's so wierd we've decided to pull a theory out of our ass!"
If that is true, then we must be smart asses.

PCMCIA is being replaced by ExpressCard, not USB. This was not a deep article.
