Comment Re:Exactly the opposite (Score 1) 438

My wife and I came very close to doing that this year. I worked from home and she didn't work. And since we live in LA, it turns out that it would be cheaper to travel in an RV (considering both the RV mortgage, nightly camp fees, insurance, etc). In the end we opted to not (we have a young daughter), but I still think it's a great idea for someone who has that freedom.

We also wrestled with the Internet issue and was most likely going to go with Verizon broadband, as the satellite option is quite expensive.

Submission + - Electronic Whiteboards

Anonymous Coward writes: "As more advanced technologies make their way into the boardroom, smartboards, or electronic whiteboards seem to be gaining popularity.

Do you use these in your office? any problems with using them to interact with people in remote locations ( when using netmeeting, or some other application)

Any suggestions or horror stories?"

Submission + - Another example of RIAA legal incompetence

UnknowingFool writes: "In another move of legal brillance, the RIAA asked for a default judgement on January 25th in the case of Atlantic vs Boggs "on the ground that Defendant has failed to appear or otherwise respond to the Complaint . . ." The court denied the motion because the defendant did appear before the court a month earlier on December 20. What makes the motion appear so boneheaded is that not that the RIAA lawyers seemingly forgot that the defendant appeared, it is that defendant, representing himself at the time, appeared in person before the court while the RIAA phoned in, a move that the court admonished. The transcript seems to show that judge is sympathetic to the defendant in the case.

The Court: You're not here looking at Mr. Boggs, but I doubt seriously he's doing this. . . these titles don't seem to go along with Mr. Boggs persona."

Submission + - X Prize video contest

zor_prime writes: Looks like X Prize is trying to figure out ways to spend the money they raised at the Google gala. Kinda funny (and recursive) that they are having a contest to help determine what the contest should be. Top prize is a trip to the Wirefly X Prize Cup in October.
