Now you should be asking who created those fissions and therefore gases and why there...the mystery lives on-rgdot (August 10, 2010, 11:35 AM)

not this time- Apple can't do white!So are you still leaning towards the Dark Side?(Don't underestimate the power of the Dark Side.

just so we're clear here, the dark side is the white side, right?-Target (August 09, 2010, 07:24 PM)

If you combined the previous two comments you could have Spin Docktor.-cranioscopical (August 06, 2010, 10:41 PM)
Is it just me, or there was a massive post deletion?-scancode (August 06, 2010, 05:19 PM)
The other thing I've just run into is an RDp app for the ipad. if I set up my home computer for an RDP connection, could I use this app to do that? Actually, regardless of an addon app, would it be possible somehow to use an ipad to connect to an RDP computer at home running XP or win7? Seems like an intriguing possibility.-superboyac (August 06, 2010, 04:56 PM)
It seems too small for me... almost like the Dell Streak which I looked at when I was evaluating platforms. It reminds me of the Sony that they released a little ago. I wanted that, but when I took a closer look, I realized that the keyboard would be a bit too small for my fingers.Good point about the 'Dock' word - but it is, (for want of a better description) a 'guiding' word - people know straight away what it's about-tomos (August 06, 2010, 02:55 PM)
I'd planned to use my jungle disk account and dropbox for the heavy lifting where file storage is concernedYou know what I use for this stuff? HFS. I set up my own file server at home and use the web interface. I really like it.-wraith808 (August 06, 2010, 11:46 AM)
however, one day my next big project is to create my own personal server with really fast speeds. My ISP has slow upload speeds, as do most isps. One day, i want my own commercial grade server to put all my websites, shared files, file transferring, etc. I want to have control over all of that eventually. The only thing I don't want to control, nor can i, is the grid access. I want a fast line for uploading/downloading/traffic and all the hardware, web space, servers, etc. is under my control. I don't like committing to any cloud services. I'd much rather set up an application myself on my own hardware, and simply use the isp to access it from anywhere. This is my goal eventually.-superboyac (August 06, 2010, 12:13 PM)
I'd like to be able to stick a usb drive in and browse the file contents also and even transfer some files back and forth.-superboyac (August 06, 2010, 11:22 AM)
Should I buy a tablet pc, ipad, netbook, or other?
The way I would answer that question would be heavily weighted toward which one has the applications I want to run, and the best development environment to lure developers from all corners.-daddydave (August 06, 2010, 10:54 AM)
wraith! Thanks for posting those pictures. We actually had one of those models years ago in my first company. We didn't end up using it much because of a lot of reasons. It's amazing how time flies! I still find it shocking that apple, several years after the tablets started coming out, was able to implement in a form that made it usuable. Not that the Hp is not usable. But that whole instant-on, lightweight, minimalist design. It's the same thing with the ipod...mp3 players were out for years, yet apple grabbed that market with the ipod by doing it in a way that appealed to more people. Sony should have never let that market go. They had it way back in the early 90's when they invented the discman. But they never had the proper vision.-superboyac (August 06, 2010, 08:42 AM)
. Whoever coded this @&$!& spellcheck belongs in the same hell as the person who coded the windows recycle bin defaults and uac!
If I take a dead GPL'd project, and use that source and project as an inspiration to build the same project, but with my own source, is my project now GPL'd? I don't think so...-wraith808 (August 05, 2010, 08:59 AM)
If you use THAT SOURCE, your app is GPL'd. Period. If you recode from scratch, you're safe. They admitted to use GPL-based source, even misquoted a part of it in a previous post.
Anyway, best of luck guys.-scancode (August 05, 2010, 01:54 PM)
OK, now I'm sort of leaning towards a new laptop...11-13" range. i don't know. I do kind of want a tablet. Something I can carry around with me to do light computing. I already have a laptop and it's not easy to use for light computing. If you want to just browse the web for 5 minutes, you hesitate to open the laptop, boot it, etc. With a tablet, you'd just quickly do your thing and that's it.This is why I was looking at the tablet, and finally purchased one. I got a netbook for this purpose, but the form factor kept it from being used in this way. The tablet form factor just lends itself to writing and reading, IMO. That's also what I like about the tc1100- the keyboard is *really* thin, and swings out of the way (or removes) very quickly, but it's there if you need it.-superboyac (August 05, 2010, 09:34 AM)

So you're saying that the tablets have the boot time of a light bulb?? <- Seriously, I'm curious/don't recall hearing that angle before)-Stoic Joker (August 05, 2010, 10:10 AM)
The GPL might be unenforceable, but keep in mind it was a matter of respect. You're basically not giving a damn about what the original author wanted.
from me.
So long, and thanks for [the lack of]all thefish.
To be honest, I expected more from a DC member.-scancode (August 05, 2010, 07:29 AM)-Stoic Joker (August 05, 2010, 08:44 AM)
