  1. Don't ever discuss or bragg about criminal behavior..! I bet you brag about hacking banks from your house too. You lost your laptop in a hack battle? Why would you hand over something valuable to prove a momentary status. That is like drag racing and losing your car. STUPID STUPID STUPID! Have dinner with them but don't fork over a laptop! You are either rich, stupid, or stole the laptop to begin with. Since you mentioned an 8.9 inch screen I assume you are going for on of the new cute laptops. Yes they are cute and can run Linux and some security tools. But you are better off to buy a refubished / used laptop for a lot more power. Of course hacks fall into the categories of security being moot because computational power and storage are cheap or security is moot by purely bad design that can be beaten by an MS-DOS machine or a Mac SE. Either being a machine just strong enough to run internet proticols. If you want small and cute then go the other extreme by putting tools on a Windows cell phone, blackberry, or Nokia 810. Then aim it at target you have permission to aim at. Think riffle range versus drive by. You get the same education and get to stay out of jail. The extremely talented would do it with "gumstix' computers. It would be like a hacking grenade because you would load it, give it a power source and see if it could hack your consentual target first. Then you up the ante and give it a limited power supply like a few cell phone batteries and see if it can hack or how far it gets before the power runs out. There is safe and smart hacking just like there is safe sex. Linux is free, build a box and hack it all day. 90 day and one year Windows server licenses can be had for nothing as downloads or by attending events where microsoft buys your lunch. You can build consentual targets and not go to jail and prove yourself. To everyone.. USE YOUR BRAIN! Get your brain into a $100,00+ job not a jail cell!

  3. Well there is one even better than GUI.. Class builders. Just point it to a database and it builds the data Acces, Business, and basic to moderately complex user interface. Then you take as much or as little of the code you want and run with it. You have Object, Collection, CRUD opperations, and a website for database and specific table administration for a 100 table database in a few minutes. The company I work with has a base class builder that we can change to reflect the programming style of the customer. Now we are reworking it for LINQ. Once that is done, then see if it can be made general for MySQL. In the GUI wonder tools department. Right now SSIS (Sql Server Integration Services) takes the cake of difficult process automation. For the LINUX MySQL fanboys out there .. tell me what is the equivlent of SSIS in the Linux MySQL world. The next toy I am building is something to build repeaters, gridview, listview as a skinable custom user control. Of course Microsoft is staying ahead of me with the new entity framework. That framework is wickedly powerful! Unless you are writing realtime systems or video games (same difference) a truely enlightend programmer wants tools that write programs. If you have a special way of doing something, you can still automate it so it is written "your" way.
