- Jay followed up on the Home Depot use of wireless gear.-- "Home Depot uses either laptops on carts or miniPC's running on batteries for intentory and other various things, they're all equipped with wireless networking, there are several Aironet's in each home depot, the one I used to work at had about 20, this allows the PC's to talk to the local network and corporate link if needed."

I will consider selling/mailing CD's if you can't handle the download, I need to check the GPL but I think I can charge for the cd + shipping + burn time. Let me know if you are interested...

Warchalking providing a means to commit crime? On Ananova.
Maybe those "firms" should invest in some wireless securty. just a rare rational thought.

802.11b at 65Mph, A Driving Wireless Network. (/.)
The houston computer consultant that proved the county's wireles system was vulberable gets $20,000 bail and is in court.
::rant::
This is obviously an over-reaction by the totally clueless Harris County District Clerk's office.
If they'd rather some blackhat drive by (know that we all know the vulnerability exists), then let em.
This seems to be one of the down-sides of "if you don't like it, sue em" mentality in the U.S.
Someone should back down, and it shouldn't be the consultant.
