Adobe's software is all slow to start, on every platform I've used it on. For something like Photoshop, that's not surprising, but acrobat is just a bloated pig. It keeps getting worse, too. -- David

Not unless they've changed things, no. I don't know why they don't like to publish their prices, but they don't. If you call them up, they'll tell you. They used to send me a catalog with prices in,

Fewer penetrations through the insulation envelope is a good thing. A surprising amount of heat is lost around them. -- David Scheidt dmscheidt@gmail.com _____________________________________________

Garage door openers have two (some have more, these days) safety system. One is the optical beam sensor. The other is force limiting. If the door hits something, it's supposed to stop and reverse to

Wireless signals go a lot farther than you think. With a directional antenna, I can pick up -- and snoop, and use -- about a dozen wireless networks, all of which are at least 800 feet from the house

There are two sorts of encryption used by wireless networks (Well, two supported by the hardware,. there are other methods that work on top of the network layer.) These are WEP and WPA. WEP is seriou

It's really easy to fake MAC addresses. It's a bunch of work to set mac address filtering up, and keep the lists maintained, and it *doesn't work*. use WPA, or a higher level encryption protocol, lik

Either. It's fundamentally borked; you'd have to try really, really hard to make a worse security system. There's no reason to use WEP, unless you have a handful of embedded legacy devices that can't

WPA using PSK (pre-shared key) is vulnerable to brute force attacks on the passphrase. This can be done off-line; the attacker can use saved packjets. The solution is to use good passphrases, and cha

Many network configuration tools can be set to pick a random key. Since you've only got to enter it once per machine, it's not that hard to use that. -- David Scheidt dmscheidt@gmail.com ____________

Digital calipers (it's spelt with a P! Guns have calibers!) have a linear encoder of some sort. I think -- though i've never taken one all the way apart -- that they're using a variable capacitance.

It's worth pointing out that an external tester will not work on a GFCI that's connected to a two-wire circuit. That's allowed by code most places, and it's often used to get three pronged outlets in
