  1. Re:This is news? on The Ancient Computers Powering the Space Race · · Score: 1

     

    I think that has more than enough extra capacity to satisfy ANYONE.

      Oh yeah, 480 kB RAM was enough at the time, but take a look at MY space ship -- it would hardly evade that thirty molecules of hydrogen before deflector moves them! Imagine that bang at the speed of light!

  2. Re:I recommend blau.de on Best Pre-Paid Data Plan For a Visit To Germany? · · Score: 1

    I am currently on my second visit to Munich, Germany, and I can just confirm that blau.de for EUR 19.80/month just works well with my brand new Nokia N900. Internet radio and ssh sessions are just fine. Btw, you can buy them in dm drogeriemarkt stores for about EUR 7.00 (effectively EUR 10.00 credit), but you need credit EUR 15.00 more for activation (vouchers available almost everywhere), which is in German only. You also need to make a paid call to activate the SIM card.

  3. Re:MS doesn't need Novell, not now, not ever. on Why Microsoft Can't Afford To Let Novell Die · · Score: 1

    At the end of the day, the fact remains. MS would like everyone to use their proprietary software. MS would like everyone to forget about open source. The only way this will ever change is if open source becomes more profitable to them than proprietary software. Then MS would transform into the #1 proponent of open source.

    We've already seen MS transform this way, in Browser Wars.

    This whole "We are Borg" attitude makes them look scary.

  4. Re:Looks promising on A Wiki For Cable and Connector Pin-Outs · · Score: 1

    Yes, but they did not answer to any of my emails regarding pinout corrections.

    Thus, I greatly welcome our new, wiki-styled pinuot overlord! :-)

  5. try wiki on How To Manage Hundreds of Thousands of Documents? · · Score: 1

    JamWiki.org, for instance, has search capabilities built in. Has security built-in and easily mnageable. You can upload the documents and even migrate them to wiki format later. Keeping the documents in near-text open format will help you re-migrate them into the future sometime later.

    Is that you, Mr. Spock?
