I have the same problem. I used to be able to see who's logged onto the
ntuvax by typing "finger @ntuvax.ntu.ac.sg". It seems that NTU has
removed this facilty lately. Anybody in NTU cares to explain why?

Also, when I finger my friends in nusunix, what I get is a long list of
names that match what I typed in instead of only the information I
requested. This occurs even when I use my friend's user-id. for eg:
"finger scixxxxx@nusunix1.nus.sg" will give me a list of all the people
in NUS whose name contains "sci", and not point out to the user with
that id. Can someone enlighten me? Thanx a million.

Funan Center is the computer mart. Most of the shops were closed
for renovation last December when I was back home.

Also you can try Sim Lim Tower, I know many poly guys try that
place for chips.

Hear hear. That's a truely good idea. To let students decide if the lecturer
has to go for "teaching lesson". Some of the lecturers and tutors here have
truely horrendous teaching habits. It's quite common over here as SAS,NTU
to have horror stories of lousy lecturers who would use the entire hour
to explain something only to go " Errr..I think I made a mistake up there "
at the last minute. What's worse, they love to use chicken scrawl and talk
with such thick accents its almost impossible to make out what they're saying.
Fortunately, we also have such great lecturers that explain everything with
absolute clarity. We should commend these lecturers and condemn the former.
Here, in NTU, we have these orange assesment forms that we are required to
filled out for our lecturers and tutors. However, there is no feedback as
to what are the results and what will result due to these results. 

However, the creation of such a course signifies a change that will be much
appreciated by the paying undergrads. Thanx.

	CCITT has pretty much completed the specification of narrowband ISDN,
which is implemented in Singapore.  Nevertheless, this is not the case for
broadband ISDN.  It will probably take a while for Singapore to completely
implement ISDN (so do the rest of the world).

	Just for your information, ISDN is stuck with a 64 kbps channel, as
specified in the standard.  Compare this with the currently available 10 Mbps
LANs.  Also, 64 kbps is 20% of the bandwidth of that the orginal IBM PC floppy 
disk drives had.  But, anyway, ISDN is the state-of-the-arts telecommunication
technology.

Apart from all the romantic spots (are they really??) recommended by
various people, I think I can still add a few more to that list.

1)  Pasir Ris Park,  it's quiet and peaceful
2)  Mount Faber,  (inspirational view? I think so)
3)  Sentosa during weekdays  (TPB must pay me for this promotion ;-)

So far all the named places are also the common ones where you're find the majority will also be seeking the best spots there.

Try this really good secluded place...Sembawang Park. Get the about seven to
eightish, have a seafood dinner at the seafood restaurant and then step out in 
the park. Its beautiful, and the seafood restaurant does intrude into the
serenity of the park. There a bus depot there too...real convenient

   Hmm.. I remember distinctly, an exhibit at the Singpoare Science Centre
in the Lower Exhibition Hall of the OmniPlanetarium/OmniTheatre building
(the area where you lounge around waiting to see the Omni-Theatre movies).
It was about ISDN, and it claimed that Singapore already has completely
implemented the first stage of ISDN - i.e. everything between switching
stations - and that you can get terminal adapters which convert what the
switching station sends to the plug in your wall back into digital. What
was not yet implemented was the second stage - that of converting the
analog user-lines over to digital so that the terminal adapters are no
longer necessary: you get digital data right out of your wall.

  Great place to stay is the Midtown Hotel, along Hungtington Ave. It's
  opposite the Christian Science Center and right next to a T-stop with
  interconnecting service to Kenmore Sq (MIT).  I am not too sure about
  the nightly cost, but it is relatively cheap for Boston and much, much

Well, it happens to us over here in nus too! When i try to find my own
finger info, I too get a long long list of names of other users. There
might be something wrong with the system. Anyway, given this tendency to
produce long lists of names, it is advisable not to use netfind servers
to look for people with nusunix accounts, as it will generate
unneccessary net traffic.
Perhaps u can try to finger using a keyword in your fren's name, but
make sure that the string given is in capital letters.

Sun (like many other MNCs) have their own corporate WAN.  The MNC's in
Singapore have been accessing Internet (and Usenet) via their
corporate gateway.  These gateways are located mostly in the US.
 
So the 1st poster is still correct.  CURRENTLY only the Universities
and a few others (e.g. technet related) have access to Internet
directly from Singapore.  But I won't be surprised if it is changing
(rapidly?).

his Anti-Chinese posts, that they're ignoring him now. So I think we
should do the same, and maybe some of us could suggest a few hobbies
he could take up instead of posting his Anti-Chinese drivel onto the

Anyone out there from Singapore, I mean physical in Singapore
want to tell us more about the atmosphere back home. Tell us
what you all had back home and so on.....I think most of us
will appreciate, well at least I will appreciate !
Thanks in advance
