I meant RAM disk. Got the creeping crap, not feeling too alert. AFAIK they all create a RAM disk. Doesn't it do the same thing regardless of media? I could be wrong. I've honestly never considered the maximum writes problem before.

Knoppix and Ubuntu Live write those logs and the swap file to a folder on the hard disk don't they? I know the Live CD does. I've actually never checked the thumb drive version for that but just assumed. In any case, I don't use it so often that it would be a problem but if that were your only...

BTW, just FTR, of course the government is corrupt. I've been saying that for decades and interestingly, no one from the government has ever suggested I stop (or that I'm wrong for that matter).

The end is neer!

You guys just believe almost everything that comes from a nut job source, don't you?

For a neophyte I'd suggest Knoppix or Ubuntu (Ubuntu is the flavor of the day). Most of the more popular distros will have a version that will boot from a thumb drive. Cat, don't you think xfce is a little bare-bones for an habitual windows user? Maybe not. I personally prefer Gnome to KDE...

Re: Apple's iPad, another coup by Stevie? Netbooks definitely have a niche right now but my Blackberry already does most of what a netbook will do (or at least what I'd use it for). Smartphones will replace them in fairly short order. My laptop has a dual core processor, 4 gigs of RAM, a...

Heard yesterday that Freeney may be out. You can prolly see Brees's grin from orbit. :lol2:

Check out Slacker Radio too (they have a Blackberry app). I'm listening to Warren Zevon and like artists right now. Grooveshark is cool if you just want to line up a bunch of songs.

:rofl4: Those poor, oppressed christians...

It'll be like the AFC Championship game. Peyton and Tom Moore will figure out the Saints' defensive scheme and then they'll go to work. Of course, the Saints are far better equipped than the Jets in a scoring contest. 51-50, you reckon?

Re: Apple's iPad, another coup by Stevie? Plenty. Netbooks are/were a passing fad. A light weight notebook is much more usable. Bet more iPads get sold than netbooks though. Remember the original iMac? Those of us that actually have to use the things know what works. ;)

I'm frequently struck by the thought that catocom is the wisest person who posts here.

Masturbation at its worst.

The seat belongs to the people of Massachusetts (in theory anyway). The Democrats by law are allowed to name Mr. Kennedy's successor. Interesting the sense of entitlement certain folks feel though, isn't it?

Luckily not a bigot... Does it really matter? I guess it does to you.

:thumbup:

I did. Sorry you missed it.
