After you've mounted your switch/router/firewall etc in your oven cum 19" rack, you can take advantage of the convenient Window Kit already installed. As well as being able to look in and watch the Pretty Blinking Lights(tm) at your convenience, you could install a neon light stick (such as http://www.thinkgeek.com/stuff/fun-stuff/3738.shtml) and wire it up to the oven's light switch! Other enhancements; lining the inside of the oven with black speaker box carpet and buying a small tubular lava lamp and strategically place it for maximum effect. :-) BTW: What the hell's this? http://www.eurus.dti.ne.jp/~yoshi-w/audio/zoom2/auto9.jpg Reckon it might end up on our shores in about 5 years time?

Hi Richard, If you only need 2Meg, rather than 11Meg, there are hundreds of 2M cards on the market cheap, which you could use in an "Ad Hoc" or Personal Area Network of about 20 metres.

www.jetstream.co.nz branding Xtra after Telecom Web Site Change
by Craig Whitmore 29 Aug '01

29 Aug '01

Hi everyone... I've noticed after Telecom have revamped their new web site they are now pushing alot for Xtra on the Jetstream Web Site (http://www.jetstream.co.nz). Before the change.. it used to be "ISP Neutral", but now.. its Xtra, Xtra, Xtra :-( I don't know what other people (ISP's including) think.. but I think it should be back to how it was, not pushing any particular ISP, but explaining the service and then giving a list of ISP's to go to get Jetstream from. The First sentence "Get fast Internet access with JetStream. Join Xtra - New Zealand's leading Internet Service Provider." makes it look like Xtra is the only ISP who can offer the service. then "Get online with Xtra"... etc etc Even the links to order it.. make it look like Xtra only as it asks if you want as part of SkyFi as you can only get SkyFi by using Xtra as your ISP I talk for myself with these comments, not anyone I work with/for Thanks Craig Whitmore http://www.nzdsl.co.nz New Zealand DSL Information --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog

fastnet... dns problems
by Chris Wedgwood 28 Aug '01

28 Aug '01

Sadly, I am still inflicted with Fastnet (ASB Bank's banking service) which by-and-large works most of the time except when I need it. Anyhow... I tried this a few minutes ago (www.asbank.co.nz) and couldn't get very very far, www.fastnet.co.nz works and closer examination shows the name-servers for asbbank.co.nz don't reply with anything useful for it... [1] So here is something fun... the name-servers are dead (or very lame at best), it's early in the morning (I tried this initially earlier this morning) and phones don't work... with no DNS, I can't email. Anyone know of a magic number to call? --cw [1] Insert standard rant, al la RFC2182 --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
