Ketchup Links


New for me, out-of-date for you…

  • Dell’s FugliPod (a/k/a :the Digital Jukebox) via 2lmc, Sven, and Erik Barzeski. Still wondering how a computer company can take in billions of dollars in annual revenue and only divert about 50 cents worth of it into industrial design. Savages.
  • This goes back a while, but Matt Dillon did a short evaluation of the small form-factor VIA-chipset motherboards and cases for use as small, lightweight, quiet, low-power home servers. I’m likely to go in that direction myself (using FreeBSD.) Putting this note here so the link will get indexed…
  • A CCIA study takes on the (lack of) wisdom of trusting information infrastructure to a software monoculture (something I’ve been known to drone on about at length.) Saying what you really think can get you stomped, though.

=== ALL USERS PLEASE NOTE ======================== A new system, the CIRCULATORY system, has been added. The long-experimental CIRCULATORY system has been released to users. The Lisp Machine uses Type B fluid, the L machine uses Type A fluid. When the switch to Common Lisp occurs both machines will, of course, be Type O. Please check fluid level by using the DIP stick which is located in the back of VMI monitors. Unchecked low fluid levels can cause poor paging performance.
