To make matters more complex are all of the big hairy AGP card that people are running these days, which draw tons of current, too. Yep. I have a Thermaltake 550w and found that if I plugged in my 9800Pro with floppy power connector and my SATA HD on the same bus and started playing a game the hard drive would power down. Took me a couple times to finally hear the click of the drive shutting down to figure out what was happening.

This is true with Racing games as well. I noticed this with NFS Underground compared to prior games. The interface was simplified and certain features were removed almost like it was made for a console than a PC (which it was)
I think Kubrick dying was his punishment for Eyes Wide Shut. After seeing that movie I was not surprised that Nichole Kidman and Tom Cruise got divorced. There was no chemistry between the two. For me the only two movies he made that I thought were worthy of commending him for were 2001 and Full Metal Jacket. I even hated Dr. Strangelove.
But that is my opinion and I am sure that others would definitely disagree and they are justified in their feelings
I too liked AI and thought the ending was suitable just like the ending for Seven as well if either had been different I would have thought it was a ripoff playing for the make you happy. For me the ending for AI was even though the robots had been oppressed to the point of being butchered for entertainment, they were able to overcome it and exist past the humans.
Also I really enjoyed TMIAHM as the book it is not for it's pro-communist subplot. But I definitely didn't cry at the end nor did I find any reason to. But then again I always thought Old Man and the Sea was about some old guy who went fishing.
That is it. Hard to remember the name as it has been a quarter of century since the last time I saw it. Didn't have anything like it up here in the Great White North when I was a kid.
Yeah it was called Chuck E Cheese. There was also another called Showtime (I think) that I remember going to when my family visited Orlando when I was 7 or 8 so that would be 24 or 25 years ago (oh my god!)
Thankfully, people tend to remember what they've learned years ago. Namely that a non-working stoplight is the same as a stop-sign.
You like to think.
It only takes one idiot on their cell phone more concerned with their trivial conversation rather than the fact that they are driving a 2 ton death machine to forget that while someone else is going as it is their turn. Almost happened with me during the big blackout couple years back.
Damn middle aged woman chatting it up in her cadillac.
But in general I was surprised how well things went during the blackout. It was actually enjoyable (minus the no AC).
Pop was there back in Exchange 5.5 but I believe you had to install the proper connector. By default with Exch 2003 it is disabled by default. But I do agree 2003 is a much better product than 5.5 just in security plus integration with AD as well.
Actually the latest from Novell (oes) is based off of linux. Actually just lately I have started playing with eDirectory and am impressed with it. A bit different of a mindset than Microsoft's but quite nice. I think I will come to like it more as I get more involved with it.
Not sure about wristpads with trackballs but using wristpads with mice is uber-bad. With a mouse you are supposed to do the movement with your elbow and shoulder and your wrist staying immobile. Resting your wrist on The pad makes you start moving from the wrist.
I agree except for one thing? what if you have a major disk failure? As you are already essentially "backing up" your music to the iPod couldn't you just use it to restore? Of course this is assuming you keep everything on it (barring you have more mp3s than will fit then you should be looking at alternative methods for backup)
I found a wonderful freeware app called Zortam (google for it) that will populate id3 from file name or vice versa as well as a whole bunch of other options.
Yeah seriously. I think what we have here is deciding to only dip one toe into the pool as well as not identifying the type of user who needs one. The comment about batteries makes me suspect that they went out and purchased the cheapest Palms i.e the M100-125 range. I should know I have one. The biggest thing I hate about it is the replaceable batteries. If your batteries die and you wait longer than a minute you lose everything and have to resync. The nice thing about the more expensive ones is you can keep it charged up whenever you put it in the cradle.
From what it sounds like as well, the people who tested them in the trial didn't really benefit from one. At one of my prior positions we introduced Palm pilots to all the partners and they were incorporated into the work environment for them. It was a huge blessing for them and was considered an extreme success.
Heh. Kanata which is a suburb of Ottawa Canada had some really stupid bylaws. i.e 1. No painting your house unusual colours. 2. No wash lines in your front or back yard 3. No Tree houses 4. No working on your car in your driveway (not the car on blocks issue just working on it)
There were a whole bunch but I believe a lot of them have been thrown out since Kanata was made part of Ottawa.
True it is the polite thing to do only if your neighbours respect you back. However if you have neighbours who even if you politely ask them to turn down the volume at 1:00AM will continue partying like it is New Years every weekend, it isn't worth it. Call the cops and have them shut it down. Enough weekend parties ruined and they party elsewhere.
I usually let the housewarming or typical special day (i.e New Years, Canada Day, etc) parties go as they are reasons to celebrate. But if it becomes a regular thing, my tolerance drops.
I liked Raymond. Once. After I have seen each episode it isn't as funny. My wife loves the show mostly as his mother is my mother.
I think one of the reason that Raymond hasn't sold as many DVDs is that it is like Roseanne was in it's heyday. You can pretty much see it at any time of the day on at least one channel. The demand is being satisfied by the syndicated shows. How many channels are showing Firefly?
Actually with regard to MS hardware I have been quite happy with them. Their game controllers (FF steering wheel and joysticks) are top notch. Never used their wireless products but they were the first to actually enable wireless encryption by default. Their keyboards and mice are also relatively robust (of course their mice are made by Logitech but I digress)
At that point I wouldn't consider them a Hacker as essentially they are getting paid for their work. Course that doesn't mean they have lost the "thrill"
Actually I would prefer neither a Hacker or Cracker in my system. Either way if I found out who did it, I would ensure that they get slammed as hard as possible with any criminal charges that can be placed against them.
Just because you can get in doesn't mean you should. Now if a Hacker did come to me saying there may be a possibility of a vulnerability and that, with my permission of course, they would like to do a security audit I may be more amenable. Especially if they are willing to tell me what vulnerabilities they think there may be.

They aren't shifting focus just expanding the horizons. With the cash cow that is Office it would take a lot more for them to shift focus.

The coolest actor on Earth, Harisson Ford. I mean, you can't argue with a 60 years old guy who beds Calista Flockhart, right ?
I heard she is doing a cameo in the new indy move as a skeleton.
Thanks I will be here all night!
Nah Mary Riley was worse. I intentionally fell asleep in that one to get out of it.

Just some comments. I think the comparisons are a little bit biased.
You think? With a website name of opensourceversus what would make you think that?
he is right though. If you have a huge classified network that doesn't connect to the weeb you can use any ip address scheme you want.

I agree. If you even think that they are going to ignore you. Call the cops. Then you have an easier case of plausible deniability
