Yes. These movies are "entertainment", bad as they are, it is about money not history. I Think Katz is on the mark (I saw enough in the trailers). The movie doesn't rate even TV. I skip all of this type.

Time was when an artist who wanted to do art would look for a patron. If he was good enough and lucky enough, he'd find a rich guy to underwrite him while he did his art.
The patron system is alive and doing well, it is the recording label company. Most people may, or may not, agree that is true. So, lets see what is on a select couple of CDs I have on this desk.
Home of the Brave - Laurie Anderson [(c)1986 Difficult Music BMI] Status is, star Patron Warner Bros. Records Inc.
Vegas - The Crystal Method [a talk soup of BMI EMI publishing, but (c)1997] Status is, star?? (I like it) Patron Outpost Recordings
Both CDs have extensive cover art. Both CDs have the artist listed as producer. Both CDs are the result of a system that has not changed much in 10 years +1 (1997-1986). The existing patron system is a modification of the same system that has been around forever. The rich, powerful, and crafty patron is forever in need of a 'power' fix. Change will allow the artist to be their own patron. All that is needed is to debug the listener.

Sure people will see it. Check out this idea. Port KDE to M$windows. All of it not just the file manager/browser.
Netscape is ok for the graphic/media browseing, however, I like lynx. IE can burn in hell.
True. If I recall correctly the netscape install program even asks (there is a check box) if you want to install it. Netscape 4.72 does, I don't know about any others. The only bad thing about having it installed on a machine that installs and checks alot of different software is wasted time while it gathers information. I have since removed it.
By the way, the photoshop articles appear to be findable here. Maybe alegal-venus-in-furs-part2 or something? The front page links were removed, but not the articles.
You are correct. Thanks for calling the current mindset screwedup. Right now I am not generating content because of an ongoing battle with 'getting a look'. There is a message in my box that states that the current style sheet version looks like such-and-such in this or that browser. It is nuts putting a page thru at least 4 browsers and 3 OS before any useful content is generated. My saying, and some say it is stupid, is; TV and the web will meet in the middle and nobody will be happy. -d
how many people out there realize the amount of work that goes into not being able to notice any differences?
how many more do not give any appreciation to the bump in speed?
I do, notice something and the difference is faster, faster, harder... oops! Yeah, now I can turn off the "light" bit and see/. in color. Who said this is not the cool age. -d
It's building and making the player work correctly that is the fun part. I can go to any store and buy a mp3 player (any size too) but that's not the point.
I wish HeathKit was still around, my Amp from them still works. Oh, well, maybe I could tweak the balance a bit, but it works and was fun to build. -d
No, not really free. The soft touch of comfort, security and wants fulfilled are the chains that cannot be broken. The rest just wait for the secret police like any one else. The big difference, at least in USoA, the police have some restraints on them. -d
I have my "stuff"; compass (old mil style), map (I like klicks), landmarks (the park). It's time to jam, crank it up. Oh, I didn't mean heavy metal music from the 80s -- what the hell add it to the signal for fun. -d
It appears SCO is following a trend. That is, "Give Open Source some free code and then embrace Linux.". You appear to be the last one with out a chair now that the music has stopped. For example; Sun is giving Solaris 8 (with Oracle) away for almost nothing (75 $US) and has a Linux group, Corel has a Debian distro and is heading for the desktop, and there is Red Hat and VA Linux and IBM. As a last example there is the FreeBSD & BSDI Walnut Creek merger. Is SCO accepting Linux just to survive and then SCO will move on with a cold shoulder after getting "Free Code" for nothing (see Caldera's CEO)?
I was all over the download pages at SCO and there is no "Ancient UNIX" there (yet?). I did find products as described in the article so they are off to a good start. I am thinking my 4.4BSD-Light with a copyright date of 1994 will have to wait a while for system V neighbor; in the CD rack that is. -d

Leave it to mrs.dutch to find a way to get me on a slow boat to nowhere; pun. Geekcruises has posted a linux cruise with an impressive list of speakers, you included. Do you think this marketing method will help Linux move onto more desktops?
The remark from mrs.dutch, "Here, now you can go on a cruise and play your game while I get some sun.", says much since she skipped past all other topics and pinned Linux to the wall. Cool idea by the way.
Is it too far out in time for you to say what your topic will be?
The size of the PR1ME 750 boxes trick people into thinking they are 'mainframe'. The 750 with Info was better than my PDP-11/34 (UNIBUS for those who care).
(on topic)The certification game has always been a marketing game and M$ just plays the game better than anyone else.
You should change your phrase to, Land owning white males, if you wish to refer to the 'old' requirement. But, the landed part would apply to mortgaged land so who cares. The 'new' requirement: 1 person 1 vote, many ways to vote. Including the internet, polling place and by mail.
Soon even my grandmother will have a simple internet device that costs the same as a cheap vcr. And if that doesn't work the 'cell phone marketing method' will be giving them out for less than a vcr and the internet charge will be on the MciWorldCon [sic] or Sprint bill as a small monthly charge. What U say? I say those long distance charges will cover the loss.
I have been fighting a database on FreeBSD war for a couple of months, company name not required. This Novell shop may, and that is may, consider Linux. Why? It is all over the news (cNBC). I was talking a FreeBSD/MySQL package -- not quite on deaf ears. This may help because Informix is a product they can research, and heard about.
