I have a 19" or so CRT you can have. It has VGA. If you can come pick it up, you can have it. I live near WPI.

Hi all, I'm looking for a cheap (free if possible) old monitor someone wants to get rid of. Something in the 17-21" range, but probably not much bigger since they get too heavy. Thanks, John

FiOS & PONs
by Chuck Anderson Nov. 20, 2009

Nov. 20, 2009

As a followup to a discussion we had after the WLUG meeting, here are some good pages to read about how FiOS works. Verizon is using Passive Optical Networking, either BPON or GPON depending on the CO. The downstream side is shared, since by its very nature a PON's downstream direction is broadcast on a single wavelength--the light goes from the OLT to every customer's ONT on the PON "tree". For privacy each customer's downstream traffic is "encrypted" so only the intended ONT/customer can decrypt it. The upstream side is shared via TDMA since only one customer's ONT can trasmit at a time on the single upstream wavelength "up the tree" towards to root of the PON where the OLT lives...each ONT gets a "time slot" for upstream transmissions. There can be up to 32-128 customers shared on a single PON. http://www.dslreports.com/faq/verizonfios http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_Line_Termination

The meeting room is the place where we met the last two meetings, namely, that room next to the Morgan Hall dining area. Next to the dining hall on the right is a door. Enter. A short lit hallway is in front of you. Walk a few steps. A doorway is on the right. Enter. You have arrived. Seat yourself. Chat with friends. Enjoy the meeting. The topic is TBD, which most likely means we'll have a giant round table discussion on any topics of interest. After the meeting, we'll go out for pizza and soda. See ya there!

writing at 1GB/s ?
by brad Nov. 16, 2009

Nov. 16, 2009

WLUG'ers, At work, i might be getting a piece of instrumentation in my lab that that is capable of out putting out 1GB of data per second. In the past i was pretty pleased to write 60MB/s under real-world conditions on my linux systems a few years back. I just wanted to ping the group about this. Does anyone know if a hard drive or even memory come close to writing data at this speed on a linux system? Or, what might the limit for data rates on a linux PC these days. From my google'ing it appears hard drives top out at around 100MB/s. Note: This piece of instrumentation has onboard memory for writing, which i'll probably have to use, but if there was a way to stream the data, it would be preferable. Thanks, -- brad

Hi! Anyone have some older Thinkpads they'd be interesting in getting rid of? Looking for one with a Pentium 4 or newer processor. Also, curious if anyone has an X31 battery they'd like to sell for a few bux. Cheers, Ryan
