You are all missing the point. According to the book of Arnie 14:02 the actual number is 999.

Don't you people watch movies. Oh wait, no-one saw that movie

A highway warning sign on the way to our local ski area:

"Chains required. Whips optional."

Hmmm, that sign went missing after Phil's last visit here... [Big Grin]

Daryl: I know I'm going to regret asking this, but did you look it up, or did you know what RFC1337 was about? I'm guessing the latter but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

Seeing how this topic has gone way off, at least twice, what's the best number fro a RFC? Maybe to geeky... IŽd say RFC3092...

Is this just going to be manufactors changing their manuals? I'm guessing what is essentially a very rational way of naming things will live on, if only as word of mouth. Nobody I've ever worked with has had any objection, though not relevant, but what is to the point is that nobody misunderstands. If asking for a female-female cable, I get what I ask for, and a master hard drive will be just that.

I wonder what they'll come up with that's better. "Make sure you have one hard drive as no 1 and the other as no 2 in the same IDE, or they will never work together..!"

Posting to keep the anxiety of my back. Should be studying, but my apartment has never been this clean, and I find interesting things on TV almost all the time. Can't keep it back much longer. Have to understand Maxwell... before Wednesday...

Much of electromagnetic theory and color photography dates back to Maxwell's brilliant work:

http://encarta.msn.com/encyclopedia_761558820/James_Clerk_Maxwell.html

During my studies to be an Electronic Engineer, I had to understand Maxwell too. [Smile] Learning Maxwell's Equations seemed dry and tedious then, but I have come to appreciate the significant effect he had on modern technology:

John: As always, thanks for the links and the extra reading material. It's helpful to sometimes pry your nose from the books and look at it from a little distance. Not to bad to know something of the man, so it's not just a name in a book, and I didn't know his discovery of RGB... You learn something new everyday, and I've learned a lot more tha that today.

It's not so much understanding as learning how to apply the special cases, and doing all the math right. I'll get there, with a few sleepless nights. I can alway slurk here for fun. And I could've started earlier and so on and so on... You don't get to be an engineering physicist if you don't pass, but how hard can it be.

I had to double check the RFC, Gunnar. I couldn't remember if they had used TCP or TCP/IP.
