Sometimes, those methods are available both as static and instance members, but in that cases, instance members are just wrappers around the static ones.
By discriminating illegal and blatant stupid moves, the search domain is already constrained to a storable space. Even more so with "intelligent" algorithms that efficiently discriminate search paths.
And lastly, even if you have every possible moves in a lookup table, a win is not guaranteed : a pat would still be possible.
Those that buy Dell computers deserve what they get for the tag price. Real PC power user will build custom made PCs and this where the platform really shine.
And when I buy something, I don't like paying 1000 $ more just for the name. This goes for Apple, Mont-Blanc, Christian Dior, Gucci and the like. There is a market for that but I won't be part of it.

.NET is a FRAMEWORK, not a VM. Just like J2EE is.
And it was a way for Microsoft to get rid of Win32 API progressively.
You confuse accounts with "subscribers". A player can have numerous accounts. Some hackers even go as far as buying multiple copies of the game to have more CD keys.
There was a game based on House of the Dead that was released a while ago. To kill zombies, you needed to type words written on them. The end result is that you have no choice but to learn how to touch type:)
Also, templates ARE supported in managed C++. It's just butt ugly as if it wasn't already enough with templates...

Does C# Measure Up?

There is an open source alternative IDE for.NET called SharpDevelop, which you get at http://www.icsharpcode.net.
It is not as good as VS2003, but quite near:)
It's about the only country in the world where showing a little sex is worse than showing a lot of violence. Why would you rather have your children see a murdered woman than a naked woman ?
Such biased puritanism is contemptuous and says a lot about mentality of a nation.
I don't agree about C# being an inferior Java clone. First things that come to my mind is that Java doesn't support properties, indexers, enums, attributes and multi-dimensional arrays.
Also, C# way of handling events is just so much simpler and powerful ! Listeners are a pain in the ass IMHO.
About defining a UI in XML, it will be part of Longhorn release whatever when that be. Microsoft developped their own XML definition and named it XAML. Read more on Devx here.

.BAT are very limited and the syntax is ugly. Use .VBS instead, ie VB script batch file.
With VB script, you can do all the stuff you said.
If you have a GetWeekDay() and SetWeekDay(n), your thinking would make sense, but I have yet to see a set method for this. Maybe other examples ?
Date.GetDaysInMonth(int)
Date.IsLeapYear(Date)
Date.Parse(string)
Sometimes, those methods are available both as static and instance members, but in that cases, instance members are just wrappers around the static ones.
Read the interview, you will understand.
:
An example
If you have a Date class, you should define GetWeekDay() as a static member, not instance member.
This is very basic, but the same applies to not so obvious cases.
Functions that change the data should be instance members. Functions that only read the data should be static members.
And use struct instead of class when you don't have to maintain an invariant (consistency amongst the class's data).
It's pretty common sense, but I agree with him that many people don't have it.
My guess is that you switched from Win95, Win98 or WinMe.
My Win2k box have yet to have any of the problems you mention and I do use it extensively both for work and games.
The only thing that gets on my nerves is the need to reboot for almost every single patches.
This is not to say that equivalent/better software aren't available for even less money ... They should at least be considered.

Talk about some *intuitive* shortcuts !
And Textpad does about everything vim does + syntax highlighting. Notepad is crap and everyone know it or should be told so.
With ASP.Net, you can catch exceptions ......

mea culpa. Wrote that too fast, I knew there was Fortran and ML implementation available, just mixed up the names.
Thanks for pointing it out.

Who haven't done this at one point or another ?
You can even make SQL generates SQL !
I think this is one of the most common example of generating code
It's just undocumented.
See this nice app here which set itself as a shell extension. I use it extensively and it works wonder for organizing music, photos, etc.
