Within the context of other OSs...I hope we see Apple increase their presence in the Open Source community. Jobs' walled garden was one of my chief complaints.

One thing is that the original netcat is, I believe, mostly stale now. There are many variants including CyptCat and SOCat.
Here is a popular opinion: http://sectools.org/netcats.html

I see your point but Andre is one type of person that still represents those of us who immediately disable all of the >win2k desktop skinning stuff. My preferred method is to use advanced properties and change to high performance mode.

My view is that I keep my Kinect on an RF-linked power outlet and turn it off unless I'm actually using it

Having a hard time understanding why people are interested in win8. Phone OS on powerful desktop hardware? Maybe the "ease of us" folks would like that...but the power users in this community? I don't get it.

I see that you've fixed it now but I wonder why you didn't just upgrade to ie9 instead of wrestling with the issue? Not that I necessarily endorse ie9 but I've really heard nothing but good things about it from ie users.

Oh I'd seen plop being used in the linux community but didn't realize windows folks were using it. Generally speaking, are you enjoying it or often encountering issues like this with plop?

Maybe he is having the problem where TrustedInstaller gets confused about what files it is looking for and where to find them. I've seen it happen a few times on different win7 boxes. You point right at the correct file but the installer insists that is wrong. I recently had to change the wifi drivers on a thinkpad due to slow speeds so I feel your pain!

Tackling as in you're going to update the Wiki? There is an 'edit' link on the lower right if that is what you're looking for but I think there are special privileges on our wiki.

Boxee Box Or AppleTV

Boxee Box. Not even a contest. AppleTV is limited in many ways. Boxee is powerful and open source.
