If you did actually bother to read the actual article you would find the correct answer to your question is no. This isn't ICS with WiFi in ad-hoc mode, this turns windows into an infrastructure access point.

Done in one.

That was my point. But the guy who wrote the article is claiming that it's some huge conspiracy.

From TFA: (emphasis mine)

It is an abuse that consumers should not have to tolerate. Someone with authority over Microsoft ought investigate whether Microsoftâ(TM)s descriptions of 32-bit Windows Vista as being incapable of using memory above 4GB are misleading or illegal.

Why is /. greenlighting yet another article just for the sake of MS-bashing? Other posters have already pointed out the remaining process memory limits and consumer driver issues that make this a non-starter technically. Not to mention that there's not much (any?) consumer-level 32-bit hardware that has BIOS/Northbridge support for more than 4GB of RAM. Since the 64-bit versions don't cost any more, who cares?

But this guy is saying that Microsoft is doing something "illegal" because he was able to hack his system and enable PAE, even though MS charges extra for that in their server OSes. Is it "illegal" for Ford to sell me a car that's computer governed to 105 MPH even though the engine can get it up over 130? Can I complain to the FTC if I chip the car to remove the limit and then destroy the transmission?

Exactly. Microwaves are allowed leak up to 5 mW/cm2 at 5 cm according to the FCC. Half that leakage (2.5mW/cm2), is almost exactly the same output as a typical wi-fi access point. Which means if he can stand next to the microwave while he nukes his burrito, he shouldn't have any issues with wi-fi.

So unless he's actually 802.11b/g sensitive, I call BS.

I'm working on one right now. It's a great display, real 24-bit color, great dot pitch (110 DPI), and decent pixel response for a monitor as old as it is. They were selling for big bucks on eBay a few years ago (along with the multilink that connected them to DVI). It looks like they've dropped off though, but there are some there for around $300 including the DVI adapter. I've got one with the old SGI cube logo. It's a cool reminder of the heyday of specialized graphics boxes.

That's a Sidewinder, not a Tomahawk. He wouldn't have been able to get a Tomahawk out of the water, let alone on top of his boat.

Came here to say this. I assumed that any killer app list would have (Aldus) PageMaker on it. Putting Quark on there without even a nod to PageMaker is really just sloppy.
