Re: Classmate PC - Front Panel

I have to agree with Joe Ross, I was actually surprised we didnt use a PC and some sort of IO board last year.

Of interesting note, the rules forbid discussion of cracking, they do not however forbid discussion of how secure a system is. Should Keehun desire to understand why it would be impractical to crack the encryption on a PDF. Perhaps he would be interested in the EngineYard contest (which has ended but proves a good point) Baring that, perhaps he would be interested in a small challenge which in no way violates an laws and is only an intellectual exercise (if he is feel free to PM me)

Sorry for the off topic-ness of my post, but I believe that should a student have an interest in security they should be taught about it rather than use any self taught skills maliciously.
