Conroe doesn't support more than one processor. That's why the speculation says Conroe won't be in the "Mac Pro" - the lack of a dual processor setup. The new Xeons, on the other hand, do it gladly.
Although I don't agree with the idea that Apple needs to support thin clients, I do definately agree that they never should have cut the eMac. Schools need that $600 or so price range - $900 is a lot for cash strapped schools. When 90% of the kids using them aren't doing anything other than browsing, word processing, etc, there's no need for a core duo and LCD. The eMacs stood up to abuse, and while not fast, were plenty for most solid school workstations.
The best known attacks to WPA2 are social engineering - cleverly posing as tech support, or flat out stealing someone's laptop. That's much easier than renting a super computer to get "fluffy4-27-1968" out of a wireless network.
That's actually relatively secure. If a user has a strong password, but with it written, it's much more secure than if it's weak but memorized. If a malicious user has physical access to the machine, then he's going to get what he wants, one way or another password or no.
Webalizer. Just feed it some nice Apache logs, and let it do the talking.
Or, if you're less of the command-line guy, I've heard Google Analytics is great.
Even the current mice Apple makes do the same thing. I'm damn near ready to throw my Mighty Mouse out and get a *gasp* MS wireless explorer. They are actually ergonomic, and while they might not work with both hands (or look nice at all), they contour your hand and don't make it feel like death after a few hours of internet browsing.
That's the attitude that makes a lot of software so crappy these days. Oh, we'll just release it a year later, by then everyone will have 1gb of ram and it won't matter.
If it were simply designed better, everything would work much more smoothly. OSS is great about this, but many companies (Symantec, MS, et al) aren't.
Honestly. $60 for games is rediculous. It's nice to be able to find a year old GC release selling for $25 or so, and only the really hyped GC games are $50 (Twilight Princess, I'm looking at you).
You mention common sense, but to a 15 year old signing up for a socical website, their common sense is to put their real name and school so they can meet up with other people from their social realm.
I can agree with the not talking to 30 year olds stuff, but asking kids to be anonymous on a social site is barking up the wrong tree.
Giving up soda (really, caffeine in general) is really a great thing. You feel better overall, and your waking hours feel much more... Awake.
But, I'd also suggest tea. No sugar at all. Iced tea is really refreshing, and you get your caffeine (if you want, unlike sodas there is no taste sacrifice for decafe).
I don't know if that was a joke or not - but in case it wasn't, there is no connection at all between the Dvorak keyboard and this 'enlightened' columnist.
Why would people want to use their bandwidth in something they are paying for? Unless if it was an option and was significantly cheaper, a lot of people would prefer it be downloads that are more reliable, fast from start to finish, etc.
Rambus is one of the companies that brought forth this crackdown. This isn't a case of price fixing everything high, but rather stifiling competition with low(er) prices..
Server 2003 isn't effected by this. Personally, I've found it to be much more stable than XP (like the stability of 2000, but with the extra features of XP). If you can stand not having themes and window effects, it's great, and plus, you can still update it (even after this "crack" is fixed).
I completely agree. They are just reinventing the wheel, this trackless nonesence just results in slower downloads on non-regulated torrents, and forces private sites to change the ways they handle their torrents to check that it is indeed a private torrent. I seriously hope that trackerless torrenting doesn't get a foothold, I never liked eMule or others much.

I subscribe to blockbuster and it gives you a numerical queue. This is great because you have complete control over it.

A stopwatch.
Let me guess.. Snappier?

To create loud noise for the phones to pick up and transmit. Or you could yell into them...
They are out of their support lifes. They aren't supposed to get updates.
Try last.fm (formerly Audioscrobbler). Works by analyzing what you listen to the most and comparing it with others. Great system.

How much do moving trucks to Canada cost these days?
So basically, the only thing you're now using your computer for is checking to make sure it isn't infected?
