Maybe they will sell some sort of "hat" as an accessory to place on on the top - to make it a level top.

I've been using myivo.com for many years for this purpose. It's a simple service that I set up on the extended family computers. The service on the remote computer stays in contact with the Myivo home page, so you can see which of the computers are running at any given moment. You connect via a Java program that runs in your browser after clicking on the appropriate computer that is listed on their homepage for your account. In addition to supporting the family computers I also use it to control my home computer from work. I had to use a browser-based method because of limitations with my firewall at work.

Hopefully the receipt and warranty card will last 1000 years.

Apple seems to only get lucky when Steve Jobs is running the ship. I would say that his sense of design is his most important talent.

On a related note - I get annoyed with my browser getting squeezed in this same manner with toolbars and the row of tabs in Firefox - especially when working on my laptop. I put the tabs on the left side of the browser using extension "Tree Style Tab" to help recover some of the space. And I find that I can rearrange the toolbars to comprise just two rows.

I don't understand the position of the equipment makers in this objection

That's interesting about the speed - I'm running in Firefox 3.5.1 and it seems snappy. My main disappointment with it, so far, is that the music player doesn't work. I was going to use it as a place to hold my large mp3 collection and play from that interface. They give you 15GB of space, so I was hoping to use it better. Other than that, I think it's cool how you can link your Google documents and access them in a manner that you would from the folders on your desktop OS. It even preserves the folder structure that you have with your Google documents.

I've dabbled with http://g.ho.st/ and it sounds similar. I've been impressed at how snappy g.ho.st is, so I would expect good things from Google, also.

I read recently that the these complex weapon systems are contracted out to various companies across the US to maintain support from a broad spectrum of Congresspeople. This one had contractors in 40 states, thus the widespread support from Senators looking to bring home the bacon in their respective states.

I think most of the Draft-N hardware has allowed for firmware updates - which could allow you to implement the necessary changes to make something N compliant.

I'm a very experienced Windows user and a casual Linux user (at work), and what you describe is true for me also. I've dabbled with Ubuntu but I just can't figure out the applications. There's a huge learning curve from becoming a Linux user (my current situation) to a Linux adminstrator - which is what I would need to be if I used Linux at home.

Darn, it's from 2009. I was expecting the submission date to be from in future.

I believe there should be.

Anybody know how they (or Grandcentral back then) can afford to give dedicated phone numbers? I wonder what it costs to obtain and maintain a real phone number like that.
