convenience you lose in effeciency! I have however read some mail about a
FLED style SE that works quite well. the best way to get a new circuit
without crummy parts that you don't want to buy is to make a circuit
yourself, however difficult that may be. I just get myself a big shipment of
junk from digikey about every month or so. i broke down after months of
searching for parts locally.

buck??? bring to market a simple box switch that double sided tapes to the
side or front of a computer that has an (in) and (out) port for a phone
jack... makes disconnection from the net as simple as flicking a switch...
and its right next to the power switch on the computer...
Just send me one as my commission OK...

Send it to te Cable company "TAKE ME TO YOUR LEADER .....BUZZZ..... GIVE
CROWLEY DSL MODEM SERVICE OR ...BUZZ....I WILL DESTROY YOUR COMPANY
PRONTO! "
One of these robots would be great to scare the heck out of the annoying
TU electric guy who hops you fence and stands on your a/c unit. (when I
was in Arlington I had a guy who did that-let out my friend's dogs, ended
up costing him (My friend) 500$) stupid meter checker )

I'll bet it was the government that did it, in a secret plot with the
aliens, who wanted their existence kept secret!
Sheesh! What's with these people? Have they never heard of a hard drive
crash? I haven't been writing a novel for 20 years, and I *still* make tape
backups of my stuff on a regular basis! If this is even a true story, it
sounds like they're the same type of people who drive without seatbelts and
then sue everybody when they hit a tree and get thrown through the
windshield. Sounds more like digital natural selection than a tragedy to
me. If you're not smart enough to make backups of your irreplaceable data,
you deserve what you get. (Stored on two separate machines? Never heard of
a fire? Flood? Tornado? Make tape backups regularly, and SEND THEM OFF
SITE!)
entrust a bunch of work to a machine without understanding enough about it
to protect their work from being lost. So much for the friendly Mac...>
