Hehe I love you, but I may be one of the few to have spent hours in the basement of Lawrence Hall of Science playing on the teletype terminals.

I call Bullshit. What "people" are you talking about? The people around here are concerned with

As a matter of fact this was a popular topic around here a few years ago.
It turns out, there ARE people that want access to the computers in their car, they
believe they can do a better job, and that mods are a good thing. Smart phones are
the big fad these days, so you read about unlocking and rooting frequently.

Please, for the sake of my gram-gram, don't go near ChromeOS.

Shit, I just installed it in a virtual machine (Parallels has a menu item, "Download Chrome OS").
I hope your gram gram is ok!

kudos to the person who will find them all and format to ext4 file system.

awesome post, but since it is almost halloween, why not a killer file system like reiserfs?

HP ? When was the last time they were relevant? Now they have tried to buy
their way into another market, and again, noone cares. Even the printers are crap
nowadays.

We have a few in NYC that are on the border of paying us to read them they are so worthless.

an accurate assessment if ever I've seen one! start with the post and daily news.....

Lazy? Why would I want to type html ever?

because having known how to since the 90's, it isn't such a big deal to type html tags, and it is what keeps a bunch of idiots pasting

If we wanted "normal people news" and features we wouldn't be here.

We'll think about it, Vint.

Who is this Vince you speak of and why are we blaming him instead?
Vince, vint, whatever. Listen up unix beardlings because I am about to drop some real history and knowledge on you.
He is some surfer guy who was too stoned on Maui Wowie to figure out we needed more than 3.4 Billion Addresses.
His name is Vint Cerf, and actually is the REAL REASON why we call it "web surfing".
Back in the olden days before young punks like you had global village modems, ISPs and dialup access and stuff,
us oldbeards were sitting pretty on T3's, "Cerfing" the internet. Well, it wasn't long until Cerf became Surf, and
that you young whippersnappers is how the fax machine was invented.

They are just moving it to the App store, relax everyone.

I'm pretty sure without googling that its "Mad Dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun", the 1930's song by Noel Coward. Unless I'm missing something obvious. Sorry to be a sticker.

Poor 3G, it was dead even before it was born.
