How's Skype for you in that respect? Can you share drawings and docs?
How about eaves-drop safety?

Eavesdrop is easy in Skype. The company sells the backdoor:

Ok, I wouldn't worry too much about law enforcement dropping in since I
don't do any illegal stuff. But the rumors about selling are concerning.
Might be just rumors though. I am more concerned about schematics and
stuff that get shared during discussions. Not sure whether and how that
works though because there is only scant information on the Skype site,
and it only lists webcam style video.

No petal, your the cross posting Oxymoran, Still I expect Phil, will get

Phil? He tried that years ago, and got as good as he gave.

How did they made the wires and connection points for the parts? Looks like
toasted bread.

Did you they did not show the LED wiring.

Did you notice that the 24 pin connector connects fro the bottom, but we
do not get to see the where it comes from.

Old magicians trick, lets you see just enough but not too much.

Not that I really have anybody I need to call, but this Skype looks pretty
interesting. So I went to their site, and they don't have a Slackware
package and I didn't see any links to source where I can compile it here.

Anybody heard of either of those anywhere?

Thanks,
Rich

Actually, I had first heard of Linux in the 1995 era, so I decided to try
it. I was wondering which distro to d/l, and there were so many options,
with attributes and stuff that I had no clue about, so I picked Slackware
because I liked the name. Linux for slackers - what a perfect fit! ;-P

Mind you, it's not Aunt Tillie-Friendly at all - it's more of a techie's
Linux. :)

(before W95 and just before Red Hat's release).

Probably IBM would then still be in that biz because there wouldn't have
been Senor Gates eating their lunch.

That's one reason I can't use Linux. No time to become an OS expert. If
I'd fiddle with all them distros and settings and gizmos it would be
like Barney Fife and his gun.

OS/2 2.0 came out in April, 1992. A spectacular technical
success--multithreaded 32-bit OS, fully object-oriented GUI, a beautiful
object model (SOM)...I could go on...but a stupid marketing failure. I
still use OS/2 at least a few times a week, and I still love it.

Well, absolutely. I was sure hoping OS/2 would make it but they
blundered so badly in the marketing area that it's hard to believe.
Essentially they could have eaten Microsoft's lunch but instead simply
walked away from the table.

Back then the money ratio was still in IBM's favor. IBM turned away
because it would have eaten into their Power architecture 'nix
workstation line. One more instance of killing the golden egg laying
goose to save the lame duck product.
