    sleeve for a brick(?)

    Actually, this isn't mine Just that someone was bugging me to get a new notebook sleeve so much so that I designed one myself and got it custom built by the neighborhood cushion/pillow tailor And BTW, I didn't decide on the (rather seedy sounding) title of this post -n -n

    oops, sorry, the reply above was meant for Zhopudey For darkstar and montylee, Actually those questions were meant to be rhetorical ...I know how to do all 3 I posed them to only point out the difficulties associated with seeming simple things For #1,I know you can fairly easily use USB...

    Linux Me vs Linux: Preparing for Round 5

    Haha Great sense of humor there.... But seriously, reading some of the replies so far (and not just topic), it seems like folks on technology discussion boards seem be indoctrinated to some notions without any serious thought behind why (it wouldn't be indoctrination otherwise, would it ..:D )...

    Piracy : Hot or Not

    It is not the same A) 100K for a entry level engineer is an extreme case..despite what skewed media reports would like you to believe b) the 2000 figure was rhetorical (also since you are the one who quoted that number to start with) c) I don't want to get into the average breakout of a $4000...

    Hi there Fellas!

    I think I now know what keeps him hooked. Some of the debates that happen here tend to get fairly passionate and draw you in completely ... Also, it seems that giving it back to another user in a heated debate brings you a certain amount of Schadenfreude that I never experienced on Facebook or...

    Linux Me vs Linux: Preparing for Round 5

    My fiancee has installed Ubuntu on a system which he uses as a server.. I tried using it as a desktop system for a few days, but frankly, Linux is still far far away from Leopard or Windows in terms of usability Don't get me wrong, it (seemingly) works great as a server platform but is far...

    Piracy : Hot or Not

    That's not a fair justification The guy earning probably has a lesser disposable income than you after paying for his necessities (house rent/mortgage, insurance, food and travel bills etc.) I too do download TV series and Movies, and I am guilty of the same crime, but puhleez, I wouldn't try...

    Piracy : Hot or Not

    I wonder why we Indians are so self deprecatory... There are so many posts here which seem to single out Indians as the primary perpetrators of piracy Try this simple test (I use utorrent, the steps may be different for other torrent clients), when downloading a torrent with a large cloud...
