  1. Re:Pascal is Easy to Understand, HTML a Great Prim on Best Way to Get Kids Started in Programming? · · Score: 1

    To reiterate a previous post: HTML is not a programming language! As shown by the ML in HTML, it is a markup language. Not only is it a markup, but also it is a pretty messy one at the moment (no real standards).

    If you want to teach HTML, combine it with writing/information processing & management/content creation/interface design. Not enough people out there know how to write well and communicate their thoughts through both old and new media.

  2. Re:Just saw it last night... on Movie Reviews: Fantasia 2000 · · Score: 1

    The Tech has a great IMAX theatre. I've never seen anyone leave the theatre before. Maybe Fantasia's content doesn't interest that many people. Who would want classical music and neat animation when there's sex, drugs, and violence? That's what we need: Arhnold: The IMAX X'perience!

  3. Re:Two types of IMAX screens... on Movie Reviews: Fantasia 2000 · · Score: 1

    Yes, the image will look a little distorted on an Omnimax screen, but it sure is a lot more interesting than on a normal IMAX screen. If you sit in the middle of the theatre the image will surround you.

  4. Re:Has Netscape ruined Netscape? on Has AOL Ruined Netscape? · · Score: 2

    I had inside experience with Netscape before AOL gobbled them up. It wasn't a very pretty sight. Netscape couldn't finish any products--they would often cancel them right after a big we're-making-the-best-thing-since-sliced-bread gala. The Netscape that most people think of had already died out long before AOL came along.
