The problem is, we need to teleport the atom, not the atom's information.

But isn't that the same thing if we're talking about atoms......? Starts getting in the realms of philosopy from here on in :)

its not in its present form, in any way, teleportation or comunication but It does however demonstrate the instantaneous transfer of information across vast(infinite) distances and therefore qualifies as a 'first step' in the right direction in my opinion. Exciting times!

Is that for spiritual reasons, the whole 'what happens to the soul during transit' thing? Or just the whole being blown into millions of itty bitty pieces thing? :)

I love this stuff, really feels like we're getting somwhere with the whole teleportation thing doesn't it. Once again, science fact only a few years behind science fiction. Its also the very reason 'skynet' scares the crap outta me!

- and viola! - typo of the year so far for me :-D

No horror stories so far then apart from the guy who set fire to a hard drive! Think I'll carry on then :)

I know you're not technically supposed to but.... Hot plugging/unplugging a standard 15 pin vga monitor cable, has anybody here ever fried anything doing this? Just wondering as I've been doing it for years (hot plugging monitor cables that is, not blowing things up :laugh:) and never had an issue I run my laptop on a flat panel when at home, so I plug the cable in, THEN switch to the external display under display properties and the reverse when switching back ie switch back to laptop display, THEN unplug the cable. Theory being there shouldn't be any voltage running through the socket when running on internal display (Although I guess there may be some residual voltage) Anyone?

Thats a 5 from me John for the entertainment value of your reply. I guess then its a patched version of the installer that I downloaded? Pretty sure I got it from the real 'messenger' download page, scanned it for viruses before running, all the usual.. When I did run it and it started asking me about activation codes, I did a thorough googling to try and find any warnings about 'sms activation scams' etc and came back with nothing. Embarrassed and ashamed I fell for it then really! I'll wear my IDIOT badge with pride.

Is it normal for beta version of windows live messenger to ask for an activation code sent via sms? Or have I been duped?

"Quickly browse to the 'Solution' folder, the 'Active Project' Folder, the 'Output' folder or the folder corresponding to the currently selected item." Thats the bit that piqued my interest....

Anybody using this yet?? Looks good :) http://www.ssware.com/vsexplorer/vsexplorer.htm[^]

The songs are all songs I can play BTW, that's why I asked if people would see a band that covered those songs, it's my planned setlist.

Going on your song choice...Does your vocalist do a passable Axl Rose, Sebastian Bach and Bruce Dickinson??? In answer to your question - I'd be there in a flash if he did! That would be some set vocal wise :)
