  1. Re:Well, now I can dodge bullets! on Click! Ultra-High-Speed Digital Camera · · Score: 1

    If I remember correctly, so long as it's not manufactured in the US, any American can buy an assault weapon built elsewhere.

    If I don't remember correctly (or if someone just has an ax to grind) I'm sure I'll hear about it.

    And just WHERE did you get the idea that I am a caucasian?

    Just because I've been polite to you doesn't mean I don't have skin pigmentation.

    Limey? Limey?

    I fall on the floor laughing. No one has ever mistaken me for a limey before. You've just set a new lower limit for stupidity.

    You should be ashamed of yourself.
    You probably won't be but someone should
    say something about this.

    Botsters started selling out the moment they bought their parts from major corporate entities.

    In my day we built our own CPUs from hand.

    QUOTE
    HotMail

    We were premature with last month's comment to the effect that Windows 2000 had replaced FreeBSD at HotMail. Markus Senoner was first to point out that although www.hotmail.com is indeed running Windows 2000, several of the other HotMail front end servers are still running FreeBSD.

    ENDQUOTE

    It would seem that MS still doesn't trust Windows 2000 all that much.

    This is just a movie.
    It's not real.
    It may be "News for Nerds" but it's hardly "Stuff that matters". This is in the same category as argueing over whether or not faeries have credit cards.

    From the ZDNET review.

    "Officially, Microsoft says you can boot to the real-mode command prompt only from the Emergency Boot Disk, which may leave too little memory free for running BIOS-flashing and similar programs that run only from the command prompt. Unofficially, Microsoft insiders told us to create a minimal bootable floppy disk by copying Io.sys and Command.com from the WindowsCommandEBD folder to a blank formatted disk."
