If I didn't get that portable back by the end of the day I'd be calling the police to report a theft.

Yeah I agree with Beast- Its not illegal but they can take it from you but have to give it back.. Just ask for it back so you can take it home or have your parents call and demand it back. I wouldn't of given it up, I would tell the teacher to send me to the office or detention but they weren't getting it.
Later all!

well i agree with the theft... but... well... what are you doing with your portable hd at school? hackin the school-comp? downloading the newest tests? or sharing "nice" movies??? :-))))))
i bet its better not to call police :-) (i just think about the portable hds of some guys... their parents better dont find that....[insert here a halo-smilie, didnt find one]) :-)

btw beast, you really sure "all" know THE answer?
dont panic....

no. no. I got it back next period fine. (had partitioned it into two drives. one for school crap and the other was encripted with pgp that held most everything of value which i'm sure helped getting it back with info still intact )
@amy and you hide the hax0r tools on your bootable ipod shuffle ;)
this way you can jam as your escorted to the dean

....but back to topic
turkey if rotations are easier than vectors
which I'm pretty sure they would be

my alpha values become z rotaion and the beta values become x rotaion
and that would simplify the code soooo much

so you just have say to track left and right
(current z rotaion) + (Δα*(xt)) + (|Δα|/Δα)*(yt) | ohh and didn't change xy from the longpost they're your degrees to adjust and have nothing to do with coordinates
and you can drop all the trig functions trying to put it back into a component vector
