Many laptops are sans DVD drive now. I've had limited experience with Backtrack. can it be loaded on a USB key? Also, isn't there a limit to certain wifi cards? I have an older lenovo X60 tablet which I would love to re purpose to an an educational security laptop. But I worry that the wifi card is lacking the ability…

Never used Dolphin.. any feedback from the LH world?

Thank you! This should have been so simple and easy to do from day one. Now I can actually send texts to my friend who switched away from the cult. My iphone kept trying to send him an iMessage

I watched Dogs Decoded. It was pretty incredible. Bottom line, they are more intelligence than we think. And they can read us pretty darn well.

I own a pair of those batman blades. Got them off ebay many years back. They're cool as they sit in a nylon case, under a bunch of crap, in a storage unit somewhere.

Thanks. I'll explore it a bit more.

I don't want to use iCloud. I haven't seen anything in sync that backs up photos. But I could be wrong

Can it automatically back up/sync my photos from my phone. That's the function I need. I don't want to keep opening the phone on my Win7, browsing to the photos, copying them out, renaming, etc.

XBMC self contained. That would be awesome! Imagine a config file that it would load at power up that could be hosted on the NAS. So all the XBMCs in the house would be identical.

They've already started rolling people back. This article should be killed off.

Sorry, but Nook Color/Tablet FTW. Worth the $50. Even as a prime member, I'd really want the Nook. My wife has the Color and it is great. I've heard nothing but complaints from Fire owners/returners.

I have an older version of powerline. It is great, but you have to be aware that it is not as fast as the max speed. Or even close. But it still beats the pants off of Wifi.

I only recently discovered Dr. Who. I started with Christopher Eccelson and caught up to David Tennant. Now I sit and eagerly await each drop of Dr. Who.

I thought this was in reference to the Star Wars Holiday Special. I just watched that for the first time 2 days go. I'll never get that time back. Its something you can't unsee.

I wonder what actually tipped them off? Did the tight clothes have a factor? Granted, if thats answered, the smugglers have a new method.

I'd like to see a best of dual docks. Iphones/ipads, etc. Many people have multiple devices and it would be great to be able to charge both. I've seen a few around, with mixed reviews.

I wonder if its requests or actual mail in. The request went in a long while back, but we only got the mailing envelope a couple days ago. It only got mailed yesterday.

Yes, but it depends on what the circumstances are. (Fired vs. laid off, etc). Not so much for executives. you can cause a catastrophe and usually walk away richer.

While tenure may be used in your point, it doesn't mean it should not be used elsewhere. I'm not going to make any assumptions of your experience with teachers outside of being a student, but its clear the value tenure has. Actually being that college level education is a business, tenure has less value there than…

Public school teachers do get tenure, so they dont need it. (at least in most of the top performing states). FWIW, I support both teachers and tenure. While it does it some modification, its a great thing.
