It is interesting to note that many public products use 128-bit secret keys by default; it is possible that NSA suspects a fundamental weakness in keys this short...
I want encryption where you have to use a quantum computer or at very least a super computer to crack it.
You can call me paranoid if you want but I will never use the wireless access on my router. I use the very same router the guy used in the article. WEP, WPA or WPA2 are too insecure for me to use.
A wireless router I would use is a router that uses at least 256bit encryption but would prefer military strength. And I want routers to containt a SD Memory card so I can use multiple encryption keys.
Wireless Routers are not ready YET. They are to insecure.
Consumers Reports is the most trusted amoung consumers. They put products through their paces and ensure they work well. With that said, yes Consumer Reports create viruses. They already have done so for testing lastest virus programs. Consumer Reports September 2006 issue has said this. They have rated Bit Defender as the best. The issue specifically said they created new viruses to test how well they did against new viruses not already in the signature lists.
People like Igor Muttik are just scared their crappy anti-virus software sucks. Mcafee ranked #6 in the Sept 2006 issue. And even if a CR virus got loose, CR can release the viruses details to venders immediately. The virus wouldn't last more than couple days.
Microsoft could go Linux but in it's own way. It's called reverse engineering and rebuilding NT Kernel from ground up. It's called putting Linux's best features into a new NT Kernel.
If the new definition is adopted, it won't last for long. We will redefine what a planet is and is not when Humans finally explore the sol system and interstellar space for the first time.
BUT I hope the IAU holds off until the satellites visit Pluto in few years. It's purpose is to study pluto and we can use it to determine if Pluto is actually a planet. And if pluto gets dropped as a planet, We will still have nine planets. Scientist are confident that UB313 is larger then Pluto. So UB313 could become our ninth or tenth planet in the SOL system.
Anyways, The moon is needed (tides). And even if it did move outside Earth's gravitational pull, It will still be called the Moon or 'Cheese' world. Old habits die hard.
And those worried about Sol becoming a red giant. By the time that happens, a Human colony is most definitely ensured.
FYI: To some idiots on/. Mars comes after the Earth. Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, and UB313.
Americans don't believe we evolved from monkeys because We are nation founded on God and the Bible.
A quote of the Declaration of Independence.
When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
And the US Constitution does not seperate church and state.
Now I know why I recently bought a Wireless Router. So I can use it with Nintendo Wii.
I just hope Nintendo doesn't blow it with the games. It sucks to blow money on a console that doesn't have good games. "Super Mario" isn't what is considered a good game.
Actually, Apple's pricing is very competive. Let's compare Dell and Apple.
Mac Mini is $599. Cheapest Dell Duo Core (Dimension E510) is $799.
MacBook is $1099. Cheapest Dell Duo Core for Laptop (Inspiron E1405) $1381 with 80gb hdd and 1gb ram.
Mac Pro and iMacs are a different class but are priced competively. Mac Pro is a Dual Duo Core with ability to have 4 500gb hard drives installed.
If you really compare apple to dell then use computers that have similar hardware.
$50/month cable would not work with a Cyber Cafe. You need a T-Carrier line (aka T1, T2, or T3) for internet access. Cable won't cut it. My local cyber cafe uses T2 line so even/. users will gladly use it for downloading their favorite Linux Distro DVD much faster.
In Hampton Roads Virginia (Southeast Virginia), there is a cyber cafe that has been in business for years. I'm not sure how long but at least 5-10 years. I would imagine the most expensive part of Cyber Cafe startup is the Tier line and being able to pay for it on monthly basis.
Check out Website CyberCafe. They have webcams and photos of the place to see how they got it setup. Webcams are live so you can also see how busy it is with a 1.6 million population.
I would personally love a Computerized house like the one on Eureka (Scifi TV show). Too bad it's faked but probaly could be made quite real for a large sum of money. I'm not sure how much the computer's charming personality can be made. How good is computer AIs?
Does this mean Microsoft will consider open sourcing parts of it's NT 'Vista' OS? If Apple is willing to embrace Open Source community then Microsoft should seriously consider it. It would appear Microsoft is dragging it's feet in accepting Open Source.
The only true way to surf the web is to not log on at all.
But for those who just can't go cold turkey. Best way to stay safe is use hardware firewall and/or new wired router, software firewall, and VMWare's Browsing Appliance with ubuntu.

This type of router would be much more functional if it had a proxy server capabilities with builtin virus scanner.
Though, Asus is starting something Linksys, Dlink and Netgear will probably jump on.

That's why ISPs are switching to Fiber Optics.

Will someone please think of the poor helpless penguins !?!
Consider the Source -- The French. Need I say more?
Anyone notice that Apple was first to have a usable GUI?
Anyone remember when Apple sued Microsoft over the GUI?
Ever notice that Microsoft is always one step behind Apple when it comes to it's operating system? Whose the true copy cat?
So this means there is two lifeforms that shall inherit the earth after nuclear war.
Roaches and Shewanella oneidensis bacteria.
But I got nothing to hide from Google or the authorities.

I, for one, welcome our new computer overlords. Seriously, I am a slave to my computer. I would do what it tells me to do within legal limits.

You are so wrong. Advertising is the way to make a profit. It's not the overall goal.
What's Google's Business Plan. It's lifetime goal and purpose.
It's INDEXING every bit of INFORMATION on the Internet. HTML, Text files, music media, video media, binary files, products, news, xml, rss, etc, etc.
I really want to see a remake of the Apple Newton with a more modern stylish design.
Some notable feaures could be;
Today's standard pda features.
Wireless VOIP builtin.
Map software with optional GPS.
iTunes for PDA
Bluetooth enabled.
Built on OSX Kernel.
