Personally I have no problem with using Netscape 4.X (or Mozilla builds) until 5.X comes out. Microsoft's 5.0 browser didn't really seem to be more than making 4.0 making look slick and integrating it tighter with the OS (so that when it crashes, it takes my Windows box down with it). Microsoft's main motive behind releasing 5.0 was to make Netscape look stupid for not having bigger version numbers. Personally, I find NS 4.X to be a much better internet suite than the crappy MS solution. Seriously, who needs scripting enabled... by default... in their email? xm@GeekMafia.dynip.com [http://GeekMafia.dynip.com/]
William Gibson Here We Come!

The Cat Cam

· Score: 1
This is the first big step in the human-computer hookups needed for the "cyberspace" envisioned by authors like William Gibson and Neal Stephenson. The next logical step would be to try this process in reverse-- that is show a cat a prerecorded movie. Pretty crazy stuff. I can envision myslef "jacking in to the net" in 15 years provided the following requirements are met:
1- This can be done on humans... presumibly not too hard
2- Really high speed conenctions
3- Really sweet security (who wants to have their online porn hijacked and replaced with something icky?)
4- No regulation.... yeah, yeah reactionaries are going to hate this stuff...
Here's a random thought but how cool would it to be to run your own vision through some crazy video editing stuff before it got to you? You could make everything psycadelic at a rave or you could overlay slashdot healines, email and stuff in your vision... Who would need sunglasses when you could simply filter out bright light?

Here's what is going to happen. 1) People will try to get into site unsuccessfully, aside from discovering a few neat weird ports and services open that they can do nothing with. Maybe someone will be able to crash it but constructing a successful buffer overflow would be impossible. 2) MS claims win2k is secure and releases it. 3) People, with access to a real machine find tons of holes. 4) Script Children own the win2k machines.

What the Hell is the power of Solaris? Solaris only seems worthwhile on SPARC for me. x86 UNIX-like OS's have been done better. Yes I know its good to maintain the same operating system between the low-end (x86) machines and the big (ultrasparc) servers.

My guess is code like this would have trouble being run on Scum... perhaps features implimented differently.. or not at all. Remember SysV IPC? Yeah. It is cool... but it would be cooler simply if Solaris became linux compadable itself... implimenting syscalls and features... but I wouldn't use it. (OpenBSD r0x)

I think the real motivation for Sun supporting this is so Sun sales reps can say, "Yes, and it can run any program Linux can in addition to our vast library of supported applications for Solaris." This isn't about helping the Open Source movement out. This is Sun saying "We can do everything Linux can and more." Seriously. What use is being able to run Linux-native binaries on Sun machines. Basically none. 97% of Linux software is available as source and will compile with cc or gcc on Solaris. I'd say 70% of Linux applications that source isn't available for (distributed as binaries) are available on Solaris. So what is the subtext. MARKETING! This isn't about Linux this is about Sun impressing clueless suits! xm@GeekMafia.dynip.com [http://GeekMafia.dynip.com/]

To conduct its study, Mindcraft compared Windows NT Server 4.0 and Red Hat Linux 5.2, upgraded to Linux 2.2.2 kernel. Both systems ran on a Dell PowerEdge 6300/400 server. Mindcraft equipped the Linux system with Samba 2.0.0 as its SMB file server and Apache 1.3.4 as its Web server. Windows NT Server 4.0 already came embedded with file and print and Web server capabilities. This class of system is what enterprise customers typically use for their enterprise servers.
This seems to imply that Apache and Samba are not-included and cost money. More M$ FUD. xm@GeekMafia.dynip.com [http://GeekMafia.dynip.com/]
