I've used the free FindNTFS utility twice to pull almost everything off of two bad drives (both corrupted boot disks for Windows XP). A got a lot of points with my father-in-law for that! You can get it for free at http://www.partitionsupport.com/utilities.htm

So if you have to re-point your antenna on your root because the transmitter has moved, your saying that February is the best time to do so? There is no way my mother is going to go up on her roof, in Minnesota, with snow to experiment on the direction to point it. Who thought the middle of winter was a good time to do this?

The problem with passing a law that requires "Network Neutrality" is the even older law of "Unintended Consequences". Most of the people advocating net neutrality want to prevent different traffic types and/or traffic providers from being treated differently. Allowing people to build a successful business and then allow network provides to then hold their traffic quality hostage is a really bad idea

That being said, I can think of a lot of situations were I would and would not like a network provider to prefer or to harm traffic based on those very things.

1.) VioP 911 call. I think it would generally be a good thing if emergency 911 calls got better service. Even if someone else's YouTube video froze. -- GOOD

2.) Video on demand requires a higher cost card at the DSLAM to ensure it works most of the time. Contract between video provider, customer and ISP gets card placed in DSLAM. -- GOOD

3.) Video on demand without card is harmed to increase sales of the previous example. -- BAD

4.) E-mail link from known spammer is slowed to a trickle. -- GOOD

5.) E-mail link from a competitor is slowed to a trickle. -- BAD

While the list goes on, here is the fundamental question: Do you trust the current politicians, based on their past results with legislation such as the DCMA and Telecom reform act, to write legislation that will allow the GOOD and prevent the BAD?

I don't buy it. I don't see the people advocating neutrality getting past the cult of corporate personality involved to write a good law.
