Computers & Internet - 8 September 2006

For several years now, computers have been fast enough for most or all of the things people use them for at home. Games keep getting more realistic, but I'd wager people enjoyed games just as much 10 years ago with comparatively clunky graphics. Multi-player games and music/movie downloading depend more on bandwidth than computing horsepower.

So, what might home users do with their computers in the near future that requires more computing power than today's PCs?

I joining block centroids to zipcodes. About 3K blocks don't fall within a zipcode so I'm doing a spatial join based on the nearest zip code. But after the join is complete the distance units are in decimal degrees. How can I change the output to Miles or Meters or something more meaningful. This is on ArcMap 9.1

What are the nicest appropriate questions to ask for people on this website and how can I avoid asking dumb questions?
Maybe it wouldn't hurt if I stopped posting questions right?

There was a game I used to play called "Get Lost!" I have been looking for it and cannot find it anywhere. It was a 3D type maze and was suspended in mid air. The view was first person. It was very fun and I would like to know where to download it at. Does anyone know of this game?

I am trying to mirror a web site so that there is a backup locally for disaster recovery.

I have tried w3mir which is a perl module from cpan but I can't get the depth to work properly.

I have also tried webmirror but it can't handle the google search bot in the web page and doesn't render it properly.
