Stock options are stock which are given to you by the company at a price which you pay back at that price when you sell them, so basically you get the difference between what you sell them at and what price they were at when they gave them to you.
Just got ours, Ultra66. Flash the bios. 100 Ohm resistor from pin 16 - 23 (Don't pull out the bios - just solder. over the top or underneath.) Reboot and sweet.

Don't know if it'll work, but sure as anything it'll be a lot easier for newbies:
You seem to be entirely missing my point, but maybe it's because you're an American and you don't understand where they're coming from?
I am not worried about my privacy, I thought I made that clear in my post when I was talking about the non geek population, I take appropriate precautions when I wish to protect my privacy, like any geek should, but what about those who don't know how to protect themselves, surely they should be granted protection by the state / law / whatever, I know I know whinge whinge whinge it's not a perfect world, blah blah blah, but something should be done.
I notice from a number of your earlier posts on other topics that it's entirely not worth my while to argue with you further so I shall cease and desist.
Have a groovy day and watch out for big brother;-) Jeremy.
What people seem to be missing when they're saying that it's nothing new and that we should just use stronger encrytion if we have issues with Echelon, is that systems like this are wide open for abuse by superpowers like the US who want to be market leaders in technology, banking and any other such markets.
Sure us geeks can use strong encryption to hide our pr0n from prying eyes, but ego's aside we're the minority!, what about the other 95% of people out there who don't have enough knowledge to use systems such as PGP, or frankly have no idea of what they are or why they exist?
How many upcoming international companies have gone under because information about their new products has been leaked from surveillance?
How do we know that Micro$oft's dominance hasn't been influenced by Echelon leaked information?
Now that I think about it, it's only a small step from this to having a full blown death ray in outer space, imagine the uses... other than the obvious of wiping out your enemies of course!!
Dr. Kevorkian could have a new euthanasia device consisting of a GPS unit and a wireless webpad, simply key in your co-ordinates to commit suicide!
Theres no stipulation in the rules about either party having to be intelligent, having a bot who chats with h4X0r d00Dz on IRC is gotta cut down the complexity requred;-)
Something worthy of note is Jade, it's relatively new, Object Orientated and the latest release offers a variety of clients, including a Smart Thin Client and an Html thin client. Some of the work I've seen done on a database system we were evaluating as well as with my contacts with the developers, The Cardinal Group, here in Christchurch, New Zealand has been very impressive.

Ha! Thats what they want you to think, obviously you're not wearing your foil hat and have succumbed to Micro$oft's orbital mind control lasers!! If you read the pages on MSNBC backwards they all appear to say "Linux sucks, run NT, Linus is satan, Bill is god".

And if linux reached desktop domination... same problem...

It sure makes me wonder sometimes...

Ohhh thats bad taste!!!

Is there any talk of releasing it under the GPL? ;-)
