Once he realized that they wrote it upside down!!!!

Or is that standard in Arabic, like right to left, or top to bottom writing...

You make it too complicated. Here are the criteria:
1. It is not on fire (sun)
2. It has something not man made orbiting it.
3. It was discovered before 1931
4. It's larger than the smallest listed in #2 (this will pick up mercury which otherwise would have failed my tests.

Or, lets make it even easier.
A planet is any one of MVEMJSUNP...

not sure who modded you down, but I was thinking the same thing.

I spent my entire childhood thinking pluto was a planet. To me it will always be a planet. Even my 9yo was originally taught it was a planet. Where's the love? Seriously, after 76 years, NOW you're going to choose to call it a 'dwarf planet'? I think not.

If you have enough gravity to have something orbiting you, then you get to be a planet.

There's got to be an 'in soviet russia' joke here, I'm just not sure what it is yet.

What 18.5" do you have? I want one. And yes, 21" would be great. I just started working at a new company where everyone has laptops instead of desktops. I'm a developer. I came from having a quad core xeon desktop with 4 monitors, 3 22" and one 26" They didn't know that. I was hired along with 5 other people. We all were issued this *lovely* hp core i3 with a 15"wide that does 1376x200 or or something.

So far from parts I've bought myself I've expanded it with two more monitors and am soon going to get another DisplayLink card to add a 3rd. These aren't nearly as big as what I had before, but it's something.

Hey hey, thanks neighbor! That's exciting, but kinda frustrating. I've called them 3 times trying to find someone that would do that for me, each time they said they couldn't do it. I wonder if it's because I have a USB Modem, that link I think was talking about phones + tethering...

Maybe I'll go to a verizon store and see if I can find a salesperson willing to do it.

Thanks again

Yes, this is another sign of the apocalypse. One more, and it's all over!

It's measured in some odd recursive binary.

10 in binary is 2
and so it's' recursive like PHP, 10 *2 = 20.

So 20 this is a recursive binary decade.

I got one. Thanks J. B.!!!!

As soon as I figure out how to thank you in G+ I will :)

The market will bear this out. I'm currently in Alabama, not even in a particularly rural area (western Mobile), but there's not cable or DSL on my road. Very frustrating to use 3G internet for internet, but I don't think it's the goverment's job to drop me a line, or for them to force comcast or ATT to do it. I'll wait. 4G is available, but I'm grandfathered in a 3G unlimited plan which I will loose if I get a 4G card. I'm currently using 7GB/month on 3G, as soon as we get 4G we'll start streaming like crazy and probably do 10GB every 5 days.

Do I want better internet? Yes.
Do I want someone else to have to pay for it? No.

since you're using apple products, imagine if we take it a little farther on the notifications... Once a hack attempt is made, your airport starts injecting 'hacking attempt' audio into your music streams.

Your iTV puts a ticker at the bottom of the screen... iphone/powermac have warning popups

Mind if I hitch my cart to your horse? I want one too: bbutle01

errr, this would help... bbutle01@

someone hook me up too, I lost all my privacy a long time ago as soon as I connected to these interwebs. Now I'm just going to enjoy the benefits of no longer being in control of my identity or privacy.

Those are all great things, and I'd love to have one, but I can't imagine tell my parents to periodically check their syslog for intrusions or mac spoofing attempts :)

Unfortunately, the ony way I can see securing wireless right now is to replace it with a wire.
