Syllable - The Little OS with a Big Future?

Posted by simoniker on Monday August 2, 2004 @08:40AM from the um-ah-dah-leh dept.

Vanders writes "Tired of endless Windows security problems? Intrigued by Linux's power but discouraged by its complexity? Tempted by Mac OS but not thrilled with the hardware cost? In an OSNews article, Michael Saunders takes a look at Syllable, the OS that picked up where AtheOS left off over two years ago. Michael takes you through Syllable and shows you what we have been doing these past few years."

In case of 503 errors by MarsDefenseMinister · 2004-08-02 09:15 · Score: -1, Offtopic

If you're waiting for /. to recover from a 503 error, why not head over to the aa419.org website and participate in a flash mob that is designed to suck up all the bandwidth belonging to 419 scammers.

Their current target is a fake bank. A page to automatically reload the fake bank page over and over again is at:

  Boy do I feel like a dork!
  
  The correct page is at: http://aa419.org/SummerFlashMob.php
  
  Load it up and leave it running in your browser to waste 419 scammer's bandwidth.

As an AucTEX user (don't use/didn't like other tex emacs packages) its the overall integration with everything else TeX-like that make creating documents an enjoyable experience. Use BibTeX in your LaTeX doc? C-c C-c will take care of bibtex when you compile. C-C C-C again to View or Print.
