ha yeah. I always had AC interference issues with an old school desktop tape recorder, until i got that brand new AC/DC tape recorder. Then it was on, well after I adjusted the volume levels...
agreed. some of my favorites; when calculating Weight:
Boeng 747's
elephants Distance:
football fields
trips to the moon
time around the earth
from New York to LA of course storage:
mp3's
DVD's

as i was reading the summary all i could picture where cavemen pointing and gathering. As one figures out how to turn it on, the others flee in fear, and slowly look from around corners or behind barriers to see what all the commotion was about.

Personally i would have refused, been denied my flight. Gone to the nearest UPS/FedEx/ (insert shipping company here) and sent it home. Then try again.
Another thing to try, is refuse / walk away, and go to a different line, where different TSA agents are, chances are you will get through just fine.
Submarine cables are essential for the Internet traffic as they are low latency. Geostationary satellites induce -due to the distance they must be at- significant additional delay on the packets, causing trouble for interactive work over those links.
From my small corner of the world, 32k. Our company (anon), purchased 32k pc's (from a major manufacturer), all arrive with Vi$ta business, all leave with XP. Funnily enough with windows firewall & auto updates disabled.
I guess i'll just follow all of the illegals (from both north and south), and bypass this headache.

Keep all my personal,private data at home and dial into it... until they block internet traffic at the borders too.
the funny thing is Best Buy contracts there Enterprise IT needs... to the company I work for. They will not let the geek squad touch any Best Buy corporate machine.
I was a bit disappointed by the graphics (especially if you compare it to recent release of Valkyrie profile 2) , but the game play totally makes up for it.
I can't even begin to count how many games I've had to rebuy over the years for my XBox simply because the DVD has gotten damaged from continuous use...
The more you damage, the more you buy...
The more you buy, the more they proffit.
I think that would be why they wouldn't allow games to be saved to HD's in the first place, let alone moding / pirating

lol it takes more than 30 seconds just to scan for SCSI devices, on my server anyway.
Total boot time is in the 3 minute range, most of that is server scanning for devices / POST'ing.
of course I'm in no need of true 24/7/365 uptime, but as stated above "Oh Cool!"
