I don't know for Ford, but German automotive manufacturers have dealt with human/machine interfacing for a very long time,
and in the process have not focussed on software/screen only, but also added many more interfacing methods like buttons, dials, cameras facing into the car and outside.
Names that come to mind are car manufacturers (Audi, BMW, Porsche, Mercedes-Benz) and their suppliers (Continental, Hella, Vector Informatik).

The whole topic has been covered not by computer science or engineers, but very much by information science.
So maybe you want to have a look there if you are into this topic.

nuff said! - try it!

... were just the next logical step beyond simple ASCII terminals,
and before a decent graphics protocol (X, etc.).
For some background/data on how those things fit together, see here:

just that.
There was enough time to fix this an several other updates were pushed out since this happened last,
so i'm not impressed by the job Apple does here.

R is a very impressive, mature program that does a hell of a job.
I best liked connecting R data sets to a PostgreSQL database
for my PhD thesis, and then doing statistical data on SQL selections
without bothing about the SQL bits any more.

Also, I see lots of universities in Germany step up and teach R, which I think is good.

I've wondered about what document management system to use in an ISO context the other day, and was recommended Agorum (www.agorum.com).
Does anyone have experiences with that? Good / no good?

... what exactly is it? I've missed some striking reason to dig deeper on the webpage. Some showcase with examples, screenshots etc. may be in order to get people look into it. Also, an answer to the question how it relates to Nagios may be nice.

Keep up the good work!

largest size was/is L and that's too small.

I use an Alix board too, and it works fine with NetBSD 5.0/i386.
I don't know the power consumption, but this may be available somewhere on the website: www.pcengines.ch.

I'm using an ~20 years old Olivetti Keyboard.
It's pretty heavy with excellent feeling.
It's connector was soldered into a PS/2 connector,
which is nowadays connected to a usb-converter,
going straight into my Mac Mini (running Mac OS X).

All this predates "Windows-Keys" and the like by
a bunch of years. The missing Apple command-key
is mapped to caps-lock.
