Loks like you have been here at the time the Deutsche mark has been the official german currency.
The old price was DM , while the new price is EUR 2.50

I'm using Bogofilter (http://bogofilter.sf.net) and I would like to see an IMAP Server where this can be integrated. This way reclassification becomes a matter of moving to and from a junk Folder.
I don't mind installing Linux myself, but I don't like paying Microsoft for any Branded Notebook I buy. Thus I would not mind deinstalling Redhat and installing Debian GNU/Linux afterwords;)
This reminds me on a business partner I deal with and which tends to send way to much plain text documents in M$-word format.
As some people already stated you cant tell people you are making businness with, that word is crap. You can mention in your next meeting, that plain text is something you prefer, but in the meantime the antiword aproach is much more convenient.
OK, back to the story:
Some day, they wanted me to draw some diagrams which i did using xfig.
I converted the images to eps and thought about what format I could change tem to to make them readable for them.
I endend up generating Windows Metafile Format (wmf) using some strange construction of wine and free software tools to convert the eps.
After all I got an email responce that they would not know a Program to open these strange wmf files I sent to them!!!
You wrote, that you need to spend 15 seconds in Interrupt service routines with linux concept of bottom halves (are the x86 only) this should not be a Problem.
If compared to wine (which is the correct approach IMO) vmware (which is the wrong approach IMO) is just dawn slow. Think about it:
"Wine is not an Emulator"
I dont think this would be a problem.
For Browsers it would be possible to adopt an
encoding scheme like it is used in the tcl
scripting language.
Any Unicode Character is just escaped with \uXXXX
where XXXX is the unicode number of a given character.
So for an "A" one could use \u0041 as well
enough said!
IMO Intellectual Property is a term which should be avoided, as it is used for way to many very diffent things!
As I generally tend to differ with RMS I think he is right in this case. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/not-ipr.html for a very detailed article on this Topic.

While digging around for Information about the google-earth API I figured out, that this API is WIN32 only!
How absurd is this? Just the Linux Version of GE seems to be non-scriptable!

Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:nocaps" does exist for years now, so where is the Problem?
Sven
587 is OK, but the OP was talking about 465 which I consider to be obsolet now.
Sven
STARTTLS does exist for years now, so 25 is all you need!

Hi there,
mplayer as well as xine choked on the file apollo_17b.mov. Is there any suitable player for Linux?
Would be all you need in conjunction with this IMO real cool device!
DECT Phones like Siemens Gigaset are really common here in Germany.

As you are selling the hardware, not the device-drivers, why not GPL the Drivers as well?
GPL _does_ protect your intellectual property!
Any competitor using your code has to publish it as well which he certainly does not want to.

There is pdflatex and there is ghostscript, just to mention two of the free pdf authoring tools.
hm, this comment rather goes to the second comment. Usenet is still superior to these inferiour web discussion forums!
When automatic PDF creation is something you are looking for have a look at pdflatex which I think is the ultimate tool for this.

There are people out there (including myself) which don't have a Windows Type Operating System installed.
So any Microsoft tool won't be a solution for those, as good as it ever may be.

AFAIK the Linux TCP/IP stack is not derived from the BSD stack.
strings is a very bad word2ascii converter. As I constantly get Email with M$-Word attachments I prefer antiword which is a pretty good viewer.

Come on guy, we are talking about the german
branch of Microsoft. And there is no such thing
as an antytrust case over here in europe!
