most home networks are not even 100Mbit, for the average joe user, who has multiple computers, it is much easier to set up an unsecured wireless network (802.11b/g), neither of these is much faster than 6-12mbits (in any situation I have seen).
I think it would be cool for home servers to become the norm, but there are problems with that too. 1. US ISPs suck. Other developed countries offer 50mbit or even a gigabit to the home, while US isps are generally stuck at some small fraction of a mbit upload. You also have to remember that not having net neutrality will likely make it so that ISPs will try to forece more money out of you to get reasonable service. and 2. many companies are likely to offer the same service (online storage) and are likely to include software to automount these drives on boot/sync local documents, which would seem seem easier to that average joe who does not know the first thing about networking.
Movie link failed my first test:
Sorry, but as of May 2, 2005, Movielink no longer supports Windows 98 and ME operating systems.
Movielink also does not support Mac or Linux.
In order to enjoy the Movielink service, you must use Windows 2000 or XP,
which support certain technologies we utilize for downloading movies.
And by technology they probably mean DRM, or what I would more accurately call anti-technology, for limiting the amount of technology which one can use with the media that they buy.

For those of us living in places where we have to use DHCP, thats one of those things which can usually be done in the background.
If you are using fedora/redhat the easiest place to do this is in:/etc/sysconfig/ifup-eth . This script gets called at boot.

The andpersan tells the shell to spawn a new instance, while I put everything that happens after the if-else block in a function I called doRest(). Make a backup of the script if you have not done much in terms of shell scripting.
Try it out:) .
ahh....but you forgot about ZFS. In the project leaders own words: "Populating 128-bit file systems would exceed the quantum limits of earth-based storage. You couldn't fill a 128-bit storage pool without boiling the oceans."
the closest thing to a network management tool microsoft has released is mmc. With *nix you get, at the very least ssh and a shell, which is enough to control everything that runs after the beginning of the init process. Pair that with a server management card and you have everything you need, you never have to touch the box again.
They dont care about software players, people those people can always download a new "security fix" and not even know the difference.
What we need is to have the keys for the most popular hardware players to be released, after there is widespread adoption.

who needs IPv6 anyway, the telcos make us nodes on their own private shopping channels there will be plenty of IPs to go around!

only if you install their content control daemon.
A userspace application should not be able to completely crash a system.

remotely managed power strips?
I think IPMI is more industry standard:

We should ban VCRs while we are at it.
Isn't that what competition is about? Taking business from competitors?
what happens when the hijackers remotely take controll of all the aircraft flying in the air?
This might be a greater threat.

It's probably too slow....with the CPI up in the trillions :(
Unforunately that is 0x1 :( it should be:
0x2b | ~0x2b
and it will evaluate to 0xffff as a short, and 0xffffffff as a 32bit int/long

libraries make books available.
I guess they'll just have to port all the crapware to linux too!
Dell used to distribute redhat 7.2 back in the day (most of the support links still have it listed). That didn't last too long.
My favorite is still: http://www.dangermouse.net/esoteric/intelligentdes ignsort.html
Sorts in O(1) and uses no memory!
Brings back the memory of this site, which is hosted on a Mac SE: http://oldmac.toddverbeek.com:8012/
let the slashdot effect commence!
Just 5 years before windows xp came out (1996) people could run computers with 16-32MB of ram (not very well, but a whole lot better than with xp!)
I'm not saying it probable, I'm saying thats what it would take.
