Except, here we are in 2002 and those 6 or 7 billion people are eating better than any of their ancestors in all of human history, even in the poorest countries. This is bullshit! People are starving in Africa every day. Did you know that on September 11 2001, 38000 babies died of hunger in Africa! There is a big problem, and ignoring it like you would like to, will not make it go away.
Its also funny how they warn you that you should not get locked into one particular linux vendor. But getting everything from M$ is the best thing since sliced bread.
The cache could work for, say, 6 hours and would serve only files in subdirectories of linked URIs to avoid any abuse.
Make it for more than 6 hours, as there a lot of/. readers from elsewere in the world, on timezones more than 6 hours away. I'd say at least 24 hours, or even 48 hours.
Does not even come close. mySQL grills it as speed. PostgreSQL grills it as features.
Yes, mySQL is faster, but at the cost of no transaction control. And PostgrSQL does not even fully conform to the entry level SQL92 standard. Interbase does, and more. It also has one of the most advanced Multi-Generational engines around. It is a great RDBMS for OLTP applications.

FATALITY!
To use your example, you can code your Toolbar component like this:
private
FVisible : boolean;
procedure SetVisible(NewValue : boolean);
public:
property Visible : boolean; read FVisible write SetVisible;
end;
procedure TToolbar:SetVisible(NewValue : boolean);
begin
FVisible
if FVisible then
ShowToolbar
else
HideToolbar;
end;
When using the instantiated toolbar, you can simply do this:
MyToolbar.Visible
The exact same goes for C++ Builder. These language rock for making application, as opposed to device drivers or operating systems.
Yes, things are not nearly as bad as they used to be. There are some crime still, but no worse than in any other counry.
Just goes to show how little our media tells us about what's happening in countries that we don't want to destroy.
Just be careful about what you beleive about the information you do get. It's probably very tainted, as the information you get about South Africa is.

But ultimately, none of those is important as Columbus' "discovery". Why? Because what was the end result of Chinese exploration of the Americas?
Yes, no one else moved in quite as swiftly and raped the entire continent like Columbus and friends.

I believe they are releasing it under the Mozilla Licence.
