I have been looking at booting a small embedded CPU with a CF card. Is there any particular type you would recommend? It's going on a R/C aircraft so it has to be able to handle lots of vibration and probably a few crashes. I was looking at these but are they overkill? Should I just go with the cheapest thing I can find? I will need to write to them as well. Probably a couple of times every hour. But when they are not in the air a standard HDD can be used.

Journal Journal: Windows 2000/NT Source Code leak

Fascinating what happens on slashdot when a news item like this shows up. I went to google and did a search of news items with "windows source code" and it came up with 3 sites initially. Slashdot found it first followed by I.T. Vibes, and Dark Vision. A few minutes later Ars Technica posted it as well. Not only that they included a link to a reference of the source tree. Fascinating!

Slashdot is slashdoted too. Comments are slow to load.

Haven't logged into slashdot in a long time. When I did a Meta Moderator topic was showing at the top of the main slashdot page. Interestings. Found I had a journal section. Didn't know that. I want to learn what else I can do!
