Recently we have bought the new release of the Pink Floyd's Live At Pompeii - Director's Cut on DVD, and I must say that I like the original concert movie more than the director's cut found on this DVD, which was released last year.
A lot of the original Pompeii / concert scenes have been replaced by computer generated 3D graphic scenes of Pompeii, and it just doesn't look good, it appears so inconsistent to me now, mostly because the 3D graphics are not really good.
Fortunately there is also the "Original Movie" on the DVD but again, this is not the original movie as it was released on a VHS tape. This time, it consists only of the songs and doesn't contain the short interviews and recording sessions, but fortunately it doesn't have the artificial 3D scenes as well.
Anyway, it's good to have this great concert movie on a DVD!

So, after a lot of talk about the folding@home distributed computing project in the lounge (http://www.stanford.edu/group/pandegroup/folding/[^]), I decided to give it a try. I became a proud member of the Team Code Project and installed it on my PC in the office, which is turned on almost all the time, to make the CPU idle time more useful.
In the first hours I thought that my PC is either terribly slow and outdated, or that the first work unit I've been assigned is too complicated. Now after about four days it seems that the latter is the case, fortunately With only 1 WU completed, I have a higher score (239) than some donators with 5,6,7 and even 11 WUs completed!
Anyway, the CP team is already ranked 522[^]. Happy folding!

PS: Does anyone else experience the tooltip bug that the Windows version (not the screensaver) of the F@H application is causing?

I have just bought a new cellphone yesterday, the SonyEricsson T610 Clickety[^] and all I can say is that it is a really really nice toy, and the first fast SonyEricsson phone I've seen.
Although it has a passive display (unlike T630) the image is brilliant thanks to the resolution of 128x160 pixels and 64k colors, when I compare it to my old T300. At least I have something to play with for a few days/weeks.

Recently I got T630 (black) its cool too. Hey checkout www.myt610.net for all the themes and ringtones you can download and transfer it to your mobile using bluetooth/infrared. Yeah i got a bluetooth too. Check out codeproject theme too here in codeproject. just search for T610.

Oh yes, I've seen it and although many people here prefer the design of T610, I like the dark look of T630 more.

Thanks a lot, I found this page yesterday in the evening and didn't get to sleep until 3:00 AM because I was browing ringtones, wallpapers etc.

Yes, previously I had the T300 and I built my own infrared adapter for my desktop PC from scratch, because I couldn't get anything reasonably priced around here. That is, I thought it was stupid buying some kind of USB/IrDA or Serial/IrDA adapter when the motherboard already has the IrDA pins, and I built my adapter for 15% of their price. Doesn't have a fancy look but works fine. And it's a perfect thing to transfer all kinds of data, I was able to backup my whole contact list from T300 including the pictures into a standard business card file and transfer it back to the T610. I have also been playing with float's mobile agent to manage the address book and SMS on the T300, etc, etc. And it also allows me to use my phone as a wireless modem in case my internet connection fails. IrDA on the current mobile phones is priceless I didn't have a chance to try the bluetooth, as I have no other devices supporting it.

Thanks, I plan to download it too.

Wow! that cool that you build your own irda devices..
I had the option to go for idra or bluetooth, but i prefered bluetooth coz of its wireless in nature and i dont have to keep the phone in the line of sight of the irda adapter.
I am planning to write my own software that will manage the content of the device, there are hell lot of things you can do with the device while connected to the pc, like composing and sending sms from the pc.

It isn't that hard at all, you can buy an IrDA transceiver in a single chip (TFDS 4500) and you just need to solder it together with few wires and a resistor. I can send you a picture if I find one. This is the tutorial that shows how to build it: http://rcswww.urz.tu-dresden.de/~sb831436/irda/irda.htm[^]

Yes, that's for sure, but my old T300 didn't have the bluetooth anyway. I hope I'll be able to play with Bluetooth too.

The Float's mobile agent[^] can do this too, you should give it a try if you didn't use it yet. I didn't use it for some time, but I've been using it with my T300 and it should work with T610 as well as many other phones (Siemens, etc).

Thanx for the link, yes i guess it should work with t610 series also coz the main page shows T610 connected to the software..
Well why i wanted to write my own software is to learn few things out of it.

Hi Rado,
somebody visited the page. It was me, and I'm still here
Most Linux distributions come with all the software a PCuser needs, so luckily you don't have to install new applications too often.

Yep, but you still wouldn't convince me to administer a linux PC. I see what the other guy has to do with that server sometimes!
