Comment Re:Avoid the Asus RT-N66U .. overpriced (Score 2) 427

Try updating the firmware. Or switch to Merlin's f/w. Or switch to DD-WRT. My RT-N66U is running like a champ. I'm getting better throughput on *everything* than I did with my old WRT54GL. I'm also running a 5GHz-only bridge to/with an EA-N66 in my living room. Pricey? Yes, but I still feel I'm getting my money's worth.

That might be so, but I can't say, a Brit living in the US, that I'm especially enamoured by the little sparks that I tend to see now and then when plugging devices into the wall. When I explain to my American friends that we have little switches on the sockets to turn them off and on, they can't seem to understand the point of them.

Not to support a fallacious meme, but I think what they're driving at with the drugs = terrorism thing is all the poppies they grow in Afghanistan. So if you do a drug that's derivative of the poppy (like Tylenol III) you're officially an Enemy Combatant.

Comment Mandriva 2008.1 (Score 1) 466

I have one of the original EEE PC 701 models and I put Mandriva 2008.1 and KDE onto the 4GB SSD. Web cam, wireless, everything works. I haven't even used the 4GB SDHC card yet. Mandriva + the EEE makes for a very nice and powerful, yet portable package for light surfing, emails and SSH connections to the home net. Skid
