If your investors are going to give you more money for using Keynote, then you have already won the battle of conning them. Forget a presentation, just demand more cash.
I heard that Steve Jobs can smell a faulty substrate, even if it isnt going to fail for years, and that he personally sniffs every chip that goes into the production line to protect us Apple fans!
The value of ads would plummet if businesses were using google apps as their LOB products. Probably wouldn't keep up with the hosting cost - and then where would they be?
Not sure what part of pointing out your pedantic, and also incorrect asshattery counts as loss.
Making you cry so hard you resort to having a whinge about your drivel getting modded down elsewhere and blaming me makes me happy. I'm counting that as a win for me, you stupid cunt.
Thats kinda a good point. I remember back in the XP SP1 days when mates used to have bluescreen issues - the simple diagnostic question was "Do you have a Realtek network/sound card?"
Did I not just explain that? Perhaps I didnt make it clear enough - you get it for free when determining the filter graph. No extra CPU cycles are used in determining this. Not even one.
In fact I would go as far to say that LESS cycles are used, because the number of codecs capable of handling the PVP pins is smaller. You heard it first retard, DRM is going to save CPU when building the graph.
So it brings me back to my earlier question - how the fuck does any OS decide what sequence of filters to use to render media without burning CPU and how does the avaliability of extra codecs increase this?
In conclusion, please get out your damn basement, put down the "teach yourself BASIC in 24 years" book, and learn some basic data structures and algorithms, and how they are applied. Then go fuck yourself, you stupid, stupid, stupid cunt. If you reply with another misguided and uninformed post I swear I am never going to fuck your mother again.
Seriously, if they've failed at evolution hard enough to not be able to use a geiger counter then I think they need a good dose of mutating radiation up the wazoo.
The decision I didnt get was Mario Ecko: Contents Under Pressure. I mean I can see the "too violent" reasoning behind other decisions... but "encourages graffiti"?
Shit. Blows my plans to produce "Oz Phx's Loitering: With Intent to Jaywalk". Guess you ozfags will have to import that one.
I would suggest the Mozilla project would not be noticable if it werent for the $60 million per year from Google that makes up around 95% of their income.
Default search provider for half the internet users is evidently a valuable thing!
Seems that the ROI that MS gets is in the usual range for a large company. That would suggest that it _roughly costs that much_ to make the software they produce.
That means that to make a similar open source product would obviously take a similar value (minus the ten percent odd profit) of time/value/effort/whatever investment.
So yes. If Durkadurkastan gave up Windows and embraced FOSS, their expenditure on software would be reduced several percent! This may have a noticable effect on their economy, if we are really generous!
Yeah considering I bought a XDA2 many years ago to take advantage of all the homebrew based on that (Win Mobile,.net compact). Only homebrew I run is my crappy timesheet program I wrote.
Turns out I couldnt be fucked installing (cracked = free) commercial third party stuff with nice installers. Doubt it being OS is going to make my experience any different
I'm still not understanding how "economically depressed areas" and "comprehensive office suite to replace the perfectly usable software included with their $12 Windows OEM license" are at all linked.
I'm also not seeing the link between "school gives students assignment thats only readable on $$$ software" and "this is somehow Microsofts fault". Perhaps every company should virtually give away their software in case some school uses their format improperly?
1) Microsoft brings out alternative payment system to get their office suite. 2) ??? 3) Microsoft is repressing economically disadvantaged school children and is teh evils.

Old XDA-2s and I think some of the newer stuff from HTC have pocket powerpoint players and a backpack with VGA output.
Am I allowed to mention them here? - they do run Win Mobile after all.

Free? You mean ad-supported?
The value of ads would plummet if businesses were using google apps as their LOB products. Probably wouldn't keep up with the hosting cost - and then where would they be?
And the correct answer is "No, but I kiss yours."
Wha?

9/10 the answer was "yes"
Hey, got a present for ya: ^Z
What is the sound of one paddle paddling?

I AM YOUR FATHER.
Cunt.
Depends if everyone else is being a hippy and preaching peace and love. If I'm the only one with a weapon, then I'll be getting a damn good ROI.
"If an officer tries to arrest me, I can run"
In Soviet America, this is about where you get shot by trigger happy police.
It seems however I haven't managed to sidestep your pedantic assclowning.
DirectPlay is obviously going to spend equivalent CPU building the filter graph, whether its selecting PVP codecs or not.
Now if you could kindly fuck off, that would be beneficial for the entire community. Stupid cunt.
Why do you bring up the red herring of CPU usage in deciding to use DRM?
You burnt more CPU posting your drivel than will ever be used by an OS not electing to turn on PVP.
Go fucking apologise to the trees you stupid cunt.
Please explain how you think any media player differentiates between any content in order to decode it, you stupid, stupid fanboy cunt.
What happens when you make a serious change to a core identifier and don't give it a new name? It ends up named wrong?
Good work there...
Autoformatting. The quickest way to break blame. Good going there faghat.

So.... errr.... what was detecting TrojanDownloader.WS? The non-existant AV?
Methinks you have painted yourself into a corner.
No. Thats the dialog box informing you that the machine isnt running any antivirus/malware software.
Probably someone put on an SP and left it.
