I know everyone thinks this is a bad idea, but I think it's great. Finally, a senator who doesn't have his own adgenda: one that's sincerely willing to accurately represent the wishes of the people whom he represents.
If he could make it so only people of his constituency could change it, even better. To me, however, this sounds like a welcome departure from the norm.
Look, this is a little off topic, but stop calling them i386s. That's not the arch anymore, and hasn't been since they introduced the 486. The proper term would be to call the arch an x86, where the x represents any number. This encompassess the 386, the 486, the Pentium, and beyond.
When you're going to be more specific, use i686, or really just 686. All Pentium Pro, Pentium II/III/IV/M/D, and AMD compatible chips are 686s.
Ah, but once you get into GNOME, your system is up. Running. Finished.
When you're in Windows, after you login you're still loading services. That's how Windows seems fast: it throws up a login screen before it's done loading. Linux doesn't do that.
The article is about windows PCs, in case you haven't noticed. Linux uses a built-in firewall - in fact most hardware firewalls use linux anyway.
You'll be fine. With linux you never ever have to worry about worms or virii.

And of course, all of this was ripped from Carlin's book, "When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops?" But then again, who's checking?

That was a year ago. Things have improved since then.

Look into ifplugd. emerge ifplugd.
Also, try using the ~x86 baselayout... they've GREATLY improved things from the standard.
Yes, this is OT
I did this years ago with my ati 9800 pro. It's a little loud, but I'm able to overclock to 465/395 without problems. So this isn't really news.
I'm sure you could opt out of these things, but I'd bet most employers would require them. Sounds like a precursor to GATTICA to me.
