2.5     Anyone know where they sell/showcase 505 vaios around Berkeley Campus?
        or close thereto? (I don't have a car).
        \_ You do to have a car Paolo.
        \_ Take BART into the city to the Sony Metreon
        \_ You do too have a car Paolo.
        \_ RIDE BIKE!
        \_ Bribe someone to drive you to the Emeryville CompUSA.
        \_ You don't have a car before you're a LOSER.  If you had a CAR you
           wouldn't need to BEG on the motd for some CAR owner to help your
           DUMB BIKE RIDING ASS.
           \_ yes,  I have a bike.  Yes, i have a car.  Id rather walk.
              And I've probably done more driving than you, son.
                \_ Ok, I'll bite...  I've been driving for 18 years.  You?  The
                   odds are in my favor on this one.  I don't own a bike or
                   use linux when I can help it and proud.  Hey, you said up
                   top you have a car.  If you're the original poster, you're
                   a liar one way or the other.  If you're not, I wasn't
                   talking to you and you're a liar for replying as if you were
                   the original poster.  Either way, you're an idiot.
                   \_ You are over 30 and you are still so juvenile?
                      \_ You must be new around here. This is soda.

2/5     What's the best way to do real time video/audio streaming?
        Is there a single standard to both browsers, 'scrape and ie?
        I go to cnn and abc news sites, there is I see a
        Real and Windows Media division, then I go to sex sites
        and they seem to have video streaming without requiring the user
        select a streaming format.  Do the porn companies know something news
        doesn't about how to stream media or is there a default media format
        for each browser? dazed and confused
        \_ The porn streaming is usually some java thing you have to download
           first, so in a sense, yes, they're more high-tech but also less
           likely to run on low end browsers.
          \_ There are also some sort of streaming jpg updates available in
             NS4.0 and IE4.0.  Porn sites can assume the customers will upgrade
            browser, news sites can't.
             browser, news sites can't. --oj
                \_ and probably uses more bandwidth
                        \_ So what?  You're talking about streaming video.  If
                           you're on a modem, it won't work anyway.  Real time
                           v/a streaming will only work on a high bandwidth
                           line.  Downloading some java app for a few hundred
                           K is no big deal.
        \_ I know this may be surprising, but I have not douwnloaded anything
           and the streaming video+audio shows up fine in BOTH browsers.
                \_ Recent releases of both browsers automatically install
                        RealPlayer for you
           When I view source on the sex site there's a bunch of javascript
           parameters with a cgi unique video object identifier. I'm stumped
           \_ Stop with the furry paws thing and go read a book.

2/5     Anyone have cheap Alaska Airlines tickets they won't be using?

2/5     Some of the more painful grammar and spelling errors were corrected.
        The motd needs mandatory spell/grammar check more than it needs
        anything else.  It isn't that hard people.  Pay attention in grade
        school.
