Jerry Pournelle

Jerry does some foolish things so that you won't have to, but there's some things he won't do, even to get satellite broadband working.

DVD-RAM/R and Memory Lapses

Jerry Pournelle

Lessons learned in testing systems; Panasonic's DVD-RAM/R versus the DVD +RW; plus a frustrating web quest for DVD media.
