I wouldn't bother with the cheap camera kits, image quality makes them a waste of money. Cameras that are worth buying are going to start at $400.

I love Axis cameras. You get what your paying for, but I really suggest using some sort of capture software because internal storage is very limited. We have 100+ Axis cameras that are over 12 years old (anyone want to buy us some new ones, you may get a tax break?) so they last.

That's because people have these hooked to a backend server that does the motion processing or takes some pre and post roll. I love Axis cameras, I get to play with 200+ of them all day long.

You get what you pay for. Cheap camera means blurry picture that you can't see past 10 feet.

"I have a lot of down time." Makes me think you did it on your employers time which you've already been paid for. If anything, I would either ask to retain the copyright or the right to release it open source.
Comment People still use printers? (Score 1) 203
A few questions I have. Do you really print that often? At home, I rarely have a need to print. I probably wouldn't print much at work if I had a tablet.
Do you have a desktop? If so, I would just install dropbox or look at a printer that supports it.
To those saying he should just get another laptop, mine rarely leaves my docking station at work. A tablet wont replace your computer, but it could replace a laptop if you have a desktop as well.

Stephenmg writes: A judge in Germany has ruled that 3G-enabled Apple products (including the iPhone, iPhone 3G, 3GS, 4, iPad 3G, and iPad 2 3G, but not specifically the iPhone 4S) infringe on a Motorola patent. Consequently, the judge has issued a preliminary injunction against Apple, resulting in a Europen sales ban on the aforementioned iPhones and iPads.

I hate the sticky ones. Sad thing is, its normally teacher computers, the kids get yelled at if they take food or drinks next to the computers. So hypocritical. Support in a school district is so much fun.

odd, my wimax works fine. I actually even have clear for my home connection. I get about 8 m down. Only issue is latency issues.

So why are we posting ads written as articles on Slashdot? I fail to see how this is news for Nerds. It really has nothing to do with the normal topics of slashdot as well as being an ad.

I could be wrong, but I didn't think unpaid interns where legal except in a very few limited cases.

Submission + - Kansas City, Kan., to be Google's broadband test (cnet.com)
Stephenmg writes: Google has selected Kansas City, Kansas, which is often considered to be a suburb of Kansas City, MO to be its broadband test bed. Overlooks Topeka, KS, about an hour away and changed its name to Google to get attention. Now I am wanting to move from the other side of the metro to Kansas City, KS.
