1/27    Is there anything in Win95/98 that is similar to the Task Manager in
        NT which can display CPU usage, change process priority, etc?  Thx.
        \_ do CTRL+ALT+DELETE and then click 'processes' or something like that
           \_ There's a list of task names, but all you can do is to kill or
              switch to a task.
              \_ Also, note that the "End Task" button is not a true kill
                 command.  It's more like tapping the selected program on the
                 shoulder, and saying, "If it's not too much trouble, could
                 you keel over and die?"
                 \_ Naw, not really, because after it ignores you, 95/98
                    gives you a chance to kill it outright unless 95/98 itself
                    is totally fucked up (more so than normal I mean).
        \_ cpu usage is in Accessories -> System Tools -> System Monitor
                \_ Only in certain versions of win98.

12/5    I suggest CSUA buy a Mac and run MacOS on it. Maybe run Linux in
        a VM, too. I think students will get more bang for their buck
        trying to run services on MacOS than with "Just Another Linux Box".
        \_ On what basis? We do have an AppleTV, which we've yet to hack
           so it runs full OS X, but as a OS X user myself, I don't see the
           OS being useful for useful services except if we get OS X server

4/13    I use IE7 to browse a web site, and the server says the UserAgent
        string is
        "UserAgent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.2; .NET
        CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.04506.30)"
        Is MS bowing to the Mozilla community?

7/26    Are there any good solutions for multiple simultaneous remote logins
        to a Mac? I'm currently using OSXVnc's recommended method, which is
        to run a separate VNC instance for each user and have everyone logged
        in through fast user switching, but that's both a nuisance to set up
        and a drain on resources. I'm looking for a better option.

6/27    For anyone who's owned a G5 running OS X (10.3 or 10.4), how often do
        you need to reboot if it's being used as a workstation?
        \_ Occasionally you will run into the Windows NT syndrome of the system
           needing a reboot for a system software patch - I'd say about once
           every couple of months on a stable release, and once or twice a
           month on a new one.  Other than that, I have never seen a piece of

6/2     In the 'official' part of the motd it says ssh1 would be shut off,
        weeks ago no less, and yet it still seems to be on.  What up with that?
        \_ Whoever did the change neglected to restart sshd.  Fixed.  -jvarga
