  1. I've been working at Vista for 12 months... by the_greywolf · · Score: 1 · on Windows Vista - Still Fresh After 19 Months?

    ... Oh, you mean Windows Vista, not Vista?

    That must be why I was so confused about this new GUI stuff - our backend GUI hasn't changed in 4 years!

  2. What about Vista? by Dogmeat83 · · Score: 1 · on How Microsoft Takes a Name

    When M$ announced Windows Vista, a company named Vista already existed, does anyone know what they did to take that name too?

    Unless VISTA has Widgets like these.. then I'm not sure why Yahoo! spent this money.

    Do you mean Vista the software company, or Windows Vista? wink, wink ;)

  7. Re:Choosing your fights by pete-classic · · Score: 1 · on Government Asks Court to Keep ID Arguments Secret

    I try not to think out that far, though I do think that it is worthwhile to not use black talons for the reason you cite. I think that one could harp on the stopping (as opposed to killing) power of hydra-shoks, and sell the safety factor of reliable expansion vs. over-penetration.

    This works out nicely, since they are the actual reasons I use them.

    Incidentally, I don't have a .357 any more, just a .44 magnum (a Dan Wesson that I affectionately refer to as "Big Dan"). When I do get my carry rig it will probably be one of these babies loaded with these. If I miss ya', I'll still burn the shit out of ya'.

    I seem to have a thing for guns that are no fun to shoot . . .
