the weight -- and more links/picsThis CNN story is more informative and has better pictures.
The part I found amazing was that, in this conversion, the shuttle cockpit lost 25 pounds of weight. Now, CRT's aren't the lightest thing in the world, so those old dials and guages must have been pretty heavy

What is MS's target market?The thing that's confusing me is: who is MS trying to convince? Will the business users really be swayed by the fact that PocketPC can play music and video? Will the MP3-downloaders really get one of these to carry their tunes? Usually MS identifies their market and goes all out after that most important group (e.g. the current ad campaign about the reliability of Windows2000).

Re:Opt-in marketing only
If you use capital (uppercase) letters, like this--<A HREF="http://www.jackpot.com"> jackpot.com</A>, Slashdot likes it better.
Makes it come out like this-- jackpot.com -
Re:Opt-in marketing only
A lot of internet companies are basically doing this already - paying customers to look at ads. My personal favorite is jackpot.com.

Re:There are a lot more data channels than 4Tower wrote:
anyone driving while talking on a cellphone should be shot. If it is a completely hands-free set, that's ok, but
I read a newspaper article about a study that had recently been done, which indicated that using a hands-free model was no improvement -- i.e. it is the distraction of a telephone conversation that is the problem, not the manual use of the phone. Which, to bring this thread back on topic, may be a good reason to stick to those more basic forms of communication.======

StructurePart of the answer depends on what you want the site to look like for the user. Most Canadian web sites start off with a splash/welcome page where the user chooses English or French (e.g. Canada Post). Personally, I would want a bit more functionality on the first page.
I think that, in any case, you need to make sure that any repeated design element only occurs once so you never need to make the same change in multiple places to redign the site. THis seems sort of obvious, but it's hard to be more specific without more details about your project. I have always tended (when using SSI) to have the "actual" html file contain the content and call the design up from a single template -- and have been very happy with this approach. You need to decide whether you are adding another decision layer to this (e.g. from content+design to content+design+ language -- or just stay with content+design and make seperate pages for seperate languages)

Re:Yet more tired geek misogynyUm, I've seem plenty of articles about Stallman that mentioned his hair and beard and blue jeans. I think it's part of the "this isn't your normal business/political-type" but it is getting a bit tired.
BTW, the author of the article is female (I know, that doesn't necessarily prove anything but still...)

Re:Yea!!I'm not gonna spam and put my referral code, but as officially billz payer I'm inclined to say this. If you refer 25 people to the free game at Jackpot.com you get a free Palm Pilot. Billz Payer Out
