        I have one "NETGEAR". Many years ago one got changed to "Hacked by JZ". I laughed. -- nm - oblique Feb 6, 18:16
      - No, wireless radio is on. -- nm - TFox Feb 6, 18:12 7
        
        Different. The radio can be on but it can be set not to advertise itself. It's a "security" feature -- nm - oblique Feb 6, 18:12 6

Is it common for students in undergrad to put what their school is and major in the automatic signature of the e-mail? - James Bond (aka Igor) Feb 6, 17:10 7
- My signature is an advertisement for my book, "Later, Skater." Heh. -- nm - Qale Feb 6, 17:20
- never seen undergrads do it, but almost every grad student I've ever known did, at least in field-related emails. -- nm - mafic Feb 6, 17:16 2
  - I can understand field related e-mails, but just random every day e-mails. Thanks for informing me that you are a bio major. :/ -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Feb 6, 17:17 1
    - constantly changing signatures is a pain in the ass. -- nm - mafic Feb 6, 17:18
- it's very common here. -- nm - candy hearts love mandy lane Feb 6, 17:14 2
  - Why? What is the logic behind it? -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Feb 6, 17:16 1

in my younger years, i let my father talk me into buying a new car. the payments were manageable ($230/month), but the insurance was not (almost $300) - Guy Feb 6, 16:54 21
- is that 300 per month? per 6 months? -- nm - Ender Feb 6, 17:38 6
  - yeah - it was ridiculous -- nm - Guy Feb 6, 18:12
  - For a new car, it could be per month. -- nm - psilotum Feb 6, 18:01 4
    - actually the main factor is that he is a male under 30 not that the car is new -- nm - Stacy Feb 6, 18:06 2
      - On an older car, you only need liability insurance, and it's a lot cheaper. -- nm - psilotum Feb 6, 19:08
      - no - the new car was also a factor -- nm - Guy Feb 6, 18:13
    - A flying car, maybe. -- nm - Spawn Feb 6, 18:06
- Fortunately, I've never had a car loan. I've driven two hand-me-downs from my parents, and one used car my wife bought with a gift from her grandma. - psilotum Feb 6, 17:10 2
  - I bought my first *new* car in 1985. It was the first time I'd been able to finance something without having my husband co-sign the loan. - MojaveMeg Feb 6, 17:16
  - the kicker is that I bought a $1200 car after this incident and its lasted me 6 years! - Guy Feb 6, 17:14
- when I leased my car the payments were $259, I'm now on my second engine on it. After my parents bought the car at the end of my lease I made - Stacy Feb 6, 17:04 5
  - for the price of two engines you could have another car already -- nm - pigby Feb 6, 17:11 3
    - actually you can buy used engines from japan for less than big repair bills like a valve job... - zeitgeist Feb 6, 17:49 1
      - thats exactly what I did, I found out next time I do it I can getan Si which has more HP for only about 100 more :) -- nm - Stacy Feb 6, 18:00
    - I know but I love my little Honda Civic, I think I may never part with her. In fact when I get some extra money I'm gonna get her a new paint job and - Stacy Feb 6, 17:15
  - P.S. my insurance was never that high, probably cuz I'm female. -- nm - Stacy Feb 6, 17:04
- wasn't that just a few years ago? i remember the tt discussion. -- nm - b! Feb 6, 16:58 3
  - Heh, I was thinking the same thing :) About half way through my time on TT/ST :) -- nm - MojaveMeg Feb 6, 17:12
  - 6 years ago. i was even more naive then, if you can believe it. :) - Guy Feb 6, 17:07 1
    - time does fly. - b! Feb 6, 17:11
