Or, if you want write access as well (the previously quoted driver only supports reading) from Redhat -> NTFS: http://www.jankratochvil.net/project/captive/ It's not quite open-source, though, as it uses the MS DLL. :(

lil_star: I meant, say, if you're going to be doing a course involving programming, actually bother to have a go at programming before the course begins. Same with Unix... Grab Knoppix and muck around with that before the Uni semester starts. Don't just stumble in wondering, "What's a...

Umm... Yes...? It was aimed at the pretty-boys in the anime, not at anti-sama. /me resumes construction on 'anti' shrine.

/me waits eagerly until DNS SPF entries become mainstream.

Too bad the keyboard falls apart, and the side casing comes off easily. Shoddy workmanship.

I don't know whether to cheer for the people trying to get into the IT courses, or to smack my head in frustrations as I imagine even more gits who stumble into the IT courses whose skills extend to 'teh hotmail iz cool n lik i cn talk 2 my frends on teh intarweb'. (Background research...

Cars + Testosterone + 'Macho' contests == Get your hand of it, you sad bastards.

Battle Isle '93! /me bows down to The Game.

Shizzle my nizzle, all-day wifi playahs. Fizzle pizzle.

Personally, I find CRTs a hell of a lot easier on the eyes than the LCDs... I get headaches after a couple of hours with an LCD. As for whacking the monitor, J0n, you wonder how it ended up like that in first place? You stupid gobstyk.

Out of curiosity, I calculated how much I've saved from not going to parties on Friday/Saturday for the last three years or so... Assuming I spent about $20 a week (drinks, fuel/bus tickets to get places, etc), it more than covered the cost of a laptop. Consider it compensation for having no...

I want to go back to Uni because: a) I actually want to learn something b) All I've been doing is cleaning, putting up sheds, varnishing and painting the house. GET ME OUT OF HERE.

Hold the phone... XBox is 'cutting edge technology'? Where have you been living, under a rock? Last time I looked it was a P3 with a now-old graphics card of some sort. Yeah. Woo. Buy XBox new. Buy PC new. See the difference.

Or, you could do what you should've done a long time ago: 1) Gather wood, including small twigs. 2) Place so that it resembles a teepee. Put the larger pieces on the bottom, twigs on the top. 3) Light match by striking the head of the match against the side of the packet, apply match to...

When Charlie, Sally and Marcie (student server, backup server, file server respectively) all go down, printers shitting themselves, you can't log in at any terminals, and the assignment is due in five hours (*Cough* DCA, OOD *Cough*), THEN a laptop becomes very useful indeed. :D As far as the...

So, fatmuscle-sama, where will you be on the day? Building 10 again?

Huss: Crossovers happen. Why do you think we've ended up with all those crappy console/arcade imitations on the PC since they could display coloured pixels? The X-Box is a nice and cheap medium for conversion - you could make a 'home entertainment' system out of it, and, if you wanted to, at...

XTs are expensive? My arse they are... Have a look on ebay, or at one of those computer auctions that have the really old kit like VAX server cabinets et al. Or they might be pushing up the daisies at the local tip by now. (Acronym reuse - it pisses me off.)

$20 * 20 weeks = $400 Eep.

Whoops. I haven't updated my link. *Updates* 'Untitled' (the site I linked to in the body of my message) is my homepage, just in case that isn't clear already. :D
