Not that all the "hackers" cared about either.
Oh, and while using a sledgehammer to destroy equipment is more
officespace-ish, you may find penetrating hardware with high velocity  
metal
fragments while pretending to be in a John Woo movie vastly more
entertaining.

Did I mention I hate micron laptops? ;)

Billy Baskett and I did this when we were back at Tadpole, circa 1993.   
 Magazine editor wanted to know if the
"magnesium case" would stop a bullet.   We tried a .22 short, went  
right through.  The rest of the range time was spent with much larger  
weapons, making sure that the SPARCbook (2, if memory serves) would  
never boot again.

Tadpole first exposed me to (then proprietary) wireless LAN.

Thanks Sam, Im decompressing right now....Im so pissed off I could  
spit..I
understand this is a piece of crap, and I did away with it tonight in  
a fit
of rage,, I flattened it with a sledge hammer,its out in the back yard  
in
the rain, I can say I will NEVER recommend a single piece of Linksys
garbage to a corporate customer ever in the future...this is simply  
trash,
and I wont deal with it. Ive got 30 years of RF engineering experience
behind be, and I wont deal with cheap garbage like this piece of crap  
is.
I want to thank everyone who pointed out how I wasted my money, and  
you can
be sure NO ONE I ever deal with will ever buy one....Linksys is  
garbage,
and I will never deal with them again...

Hi Blitz,
your choice is not right. If you WAP with 2.05 firmware, it mean,  
that you
have WAP11 v2.8. If you
need hackable equipment, you must buy some AP, which based on Atmel
AT76C510 chipset. For
information, WAP11 v2,6 and v1.1, v1.0 had thish chip.

Subject: [BAWUG] WAP11 hack
I just got a New Linksys WAP11, and have been reading the power  
hacks,
but
none seem to work for me. Mine has firmware 2.05 in it, and I see
nothing
but stuff dated for V 1.4 out there. All the "tools" mentioned in the
articles etc wont connect to this thing, so I need some help here.
has anyone successfully updated theirs for the supposed 100mw they  
will
put
out? Otherwise, this one goes on ebay, I cant connect for crap to it.
If it sets next to me, it works fine, but when i put it upstairs, it
stinks. Way too little power...I need the power hack nothing else...
