GOOD TIP, BUT SPAM OUGHT TO BE STOPPED BY ISP's I downloaded and started using Cloudmark SpamNet (mentioned by Dane Carlson, Gregory Blake, InfoWorld, and The Register) and from what I can see, it's works quite well.  I disabled the Rules Wizard in Outlook 2000 and the new software (so far) appears to be blocking virtually all of the senders I had previously added to my Junk Senders list.  The good thing is that more messages were blocked, which I would have normally had to stop and add to my list.[jenett.radio] 3:22:57 PM     Comments[]

DOESN'T APPLE ADVOCATE 802.11g? BusinessWeek weighs in, favoring 802.11a over Wi-Fi and 802.11g: some impeccable logic in why 802.11a is a better bet than 802.11g in the short-term and long-term. It doesn't incorporate technical and financial data, however, which we should start seeing real-world analyses of as 802.11a is deployed. It's great to say use 802.11a, but if you need a 2x or 3x denser installation for the same services, then it may be better to simply use RAID - redundant antennas with inexpensive devices.
