It’s at least one billion degrees here in Vegas… I arrived in Vegas and picked up my badge. The booklet is chock full of goodies, it even includes a paper enigma machine. There’s a CD that I need to dive in to, just from a quick perusal — tons of presentations. So far I’ve met a few folks. The big topic of conversation is the Cisco flaw found. Will post more as the conference starts on Friday. Here are some pics for now… Link.

Images-139-1 “FreeBSD has been ported to the XBox. “Over the last 2 weeks, I have been working on a port of FreeBSD for the XBox. The port is fully functional. The framebuffer is fully supported, same goes for sound and USB devices (such as an USB keyboard). Only ethernet is missing, currently.” The FreeBSD on XBox website is here, downloads included.[via] Link.
