External I/O Ports
I'm doing some backups using external disks -- bare SATA II drives stuffed into USB external disk cases. One of the cases has eSATA support at SATA II speeds: 3 Gbps. At work, where I'm doing the backups, I have to live with USB 2.0 speeds -- 480 Mbps -- but at home I have a machine with an eSATA port on the back panel.
It just kind of struck me this evening ... 3 Gbps. Sweet. Screw USB. Screw Firewire. And Firewire 800 can go pound sand. 1.5 Gbps eSATA? I don't think so.
Three. Motherfucking. Gig.
How long until everything supports that data rate?

My faves are UK shows Peep Show, and Garth Merenghi's Darkplace is a spoof
of UK sci-fi 70s shows with doctors in a supernatural hospital, it's
really hilarious...

In what's shaping up as an electronics industry trial of the century_between two incompatible, high-definition video-disc formats_the holdout juror is Ken Graffeo, Universal Home Video executive vice president of HD strategic marketing. And he may very well upset the whole case.

The Apple iTune DRM-free tracks contain user account info. I predicted they would do this with watermarking, but the info appears to be in the clear.

Marines investigate antiwar activities of inactive reservists
After discharge from active duty, troops remain in the Individual Ready Reserve for some period of time. This is a mandatory period of a few years duration.
Some IRR members have been yanked out of civilian life to fight in the boy king's enduring clusterfuck. Now, the Marine Corps doesn't think the IRR members have the right to speak out against the war.
