Hello! My name is Bryan S. Blank. I am 13 years old, and have been given
|
||
|
|
an account on a VAX running Ultrix for Internet use. My problem is that
|
||
|
|
my machine is an 8088 that runs MS-Loss. I am writing code in various
|
||
|
|
languages, and always run out of space. I have always been amazed by the
|
||
|
|
Sun workstations, and this must be a crazy question, but does anybody have
|
||
|
|
an extra Sun<cry,sob,weep>? I have always love Unix and X11, but my
|
||
|
|
parents don't have the cash, and Tallahassee, FL is so small that I can't
|
||
|
|
find somebody with one. This is definetly a insane post, but remember, by
|
||
|
|
donating a computer to a child, you make America's future much
|
||
|
|
brighter<sarcastic grin>. If you would like to reply, please send e-mail
|
||
|
|
to BBlank@mailer.cc.fsu.edu. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!<Yes, I am screaming.>
|
||
|
|
Thanks again.

Sincerely,
|

AT&T New Digital Corless Telephone
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
AT&T today announced a high-power, all-digital cordless phone with
|
||
|
|
four times the range of today's conventional cordless telephones. The
|
||
|
|
AT&T Extended Range Cordless Telephone 9530 operates in the 900-MHz
|
||
|
|
frequency, providing virtually interference-free conversations with
|
||
|
|
consistent sound quality up to one mile from the base. The AT&T 9530
|
||
|
|
uses full digital transmission to encode speech onto a radio signal,
|
||
|
|
much like music is encoded onto a CD, and to provide clearer sound
|
||
|
|
over a longer range than cordless phones operating in the 46/49-MHz
|
||
|
|
frequency. AT&T's spread-spectrum, frequency-hopping architecture,
|
||
|
|
which is patent-pending, actually avoids interference by "hopping"
|
||
|
|
the radio signal among 50 of the available 173 channels during a
|
||
|
|
conversation. If any of the channels experience interference, the
|
||
|
|
9530 automatically swaps it for a new, clearer channel. Because it
|
||
|
|
operates over a different frequency, the AT&T 9530 is unaffected by
|
||
|
|
forms of interference common to 46/49-MHz cordless phones, such as
|
||
|
|
garage door openers, baby monitors and radio intercoms. It also
|
||
|
|
performs well in environments typically difficult for conventional
|
||
|
|
cordless, such as high-rise apartment and multilevel buildings. The
|
||
|
|
random selection of 50 of 173 channels, along with digital speech
|
||
|
|
encoding, makes it nearly impossible to eavesdrop on conversations.
|
||
|
|
The AT&T 9530 was designed and developed by AT&T Bell Laboratories,
|
||
|
|
employing advanced integrated circuit technology developed jointly
|
||
|
|
with AT&T Microelectronics. The AT&T Extended Range Cordless
|
||
|
|
Telephone 9530 will be available in late spring at AT&T Phone Centers
|
||
|
|
nationwide for $449.99. For more information, call 800-222-3111.
