USB Car key!?

I think that its an awesome idea: Mazda's new hatchback is to open your door, start your car, add music to the car's internal hard drive, and provide a means for loading GPS Maps. I think that this will be my next vehicle definetly. Like the guy that wrote this article,"Good thing this is still a production car, and my [truck] is still running good.

Knoppix Arcade Machine

So another knoppix distro for the kiddies

Knoppix Mame will turn any machine into a sweet arcade machine. Sounds great for my little brothers and sisters...

The original package can be found on sourceforge, but I would say its a hell of a lot easier just downloading off of exeem or demonoid. (torrents) If you go with the original package then you still have to add your own roms to the distro and rebuild, whereas if you go do a search for "mame" on a torrent network of some kind, its already there. But hey if you dont have anything better to do then have fun.
