If I put out a book that was nothing but paragraphs of faulkner alternating with paragraphs of hemingway...
...you wouldn't sell very many copies. So who would care?

One article I've seen (maybe this one) gives ECC credit for inspiring the current mashups with the herb alpert/public enemy mix from oh so long ago. Down at the very tail end of the article....
For those who haven't caught on yet, this is why the MPAA and RIAA dislike technology so strongly.
And you think this is really going to cut into Lucas' bottom line, how? If anything, this should stand as a perfect example of why such things don't matter because I'm sure Star Wars is going to make beaucoup bucks this weekend despite the availability of bootlegs.
I have a couple dozen bookmarks to stuff on the net about html, cgi, php, etc. I also have a half dozen of the O'Reilly books on similar topics, as well as most of their Perl collection. Which one do I find a quicker way to get at what I know is there? The books, hands down. Web pages tend to be broken up into individual "pages" to "simulate" being books, but don't have good indexing. Google doesn't count as good indexing, except insofar as I can find information that I've never seen before, because if I *have* seen it before typically it's still tough to find the right magic words to get exactly what I saw.
So the answer is yes, I really need them. And I bet the original poster does too. And see, that's the hard part. He can scan and download and so forth all he likes, but finding a good index replacement is not going to be so easy.
Which 8.0 did you get? Personal or Professional? I found the same thing with my copy of 7.3, and realized that it was the Personal Edition Difference. If you're with it enough to be doing builds, they expect you want to pay more for the Pro Edition. Of course, you can always go out to their FTP site and download the necessary RPMs, that's what I did.
While we're finding things to complain about, YaST is nice & all, but at least in 7.3 it's a hairball to try and figure out where the printer configs are, and God Help You if you want to do something different than they do by default (e.g. make the ASCII interface to my Samba based printer the default; yah, I figured out ways to do it, but not as a system wide default).
You're the one presuming, without ever having tried it, that ketchup on prime rib tastes just like hamburger. The "benefit" as you put it, was up to your friend o determine, not you. Unless you are being an elitist snob who "knows better".
If he didn't put ketchup on yours, I don't see what the problem is. While I agree that mainstream tastes generally don't do much for me, nobody's doing a Clockwork Orange to make me watch the movies I don't want to watch either. Get over your elitism, eh?
There is little or nothing Sun's OS can do now that Linux can't.
What are you smoking, boy? Solaris is a focussed OS that's consistent and scalable. Not a collection of contributed code that creates conflict as often as synergy, and won't scale on big iron. And if you don't think people need big iron, go talk to some CTO's who are buying E15K's.
What I want to know is where this mythical "contract" they think I signed is. The only contract I remember signing is the one that says I'll pay my cable provider for a feed. Don't recally any clauses about must watch advertising.
In the scramble for survival, especially in an economic downturn, many companies are caught
off-guard and have to show their shareholders that they are doing something to get the company back on the road to profitability
Anyone who claims, at this late date, to have been caught off guard by economic conditions and poor cashflow, is a complete moron.
Leftists
tend to trust the government much more than republicans/libertarians.
Tell that to Ralph Nader.
And really, I think confusing Republicans with Libertarians is about as sensible as confusing Leftists and Democrats. Demopublicans are all in one big boat with a couple fringy issues to pretend they're different.
The Burroughs books are pure space opera. Of course the people who did 'The Mummy' can do them justice, they're pretty fluffy already. I think this will be really impressive if it really comes to the screen.
If my environment were all unix, that'd be wonderful. It's not. Don't care to bother finding a way to run ssh on my windows game box. Thank you for playing.
The last Belkin KVM I owned was a PoS, I don't plan to spend money on them again. But thanks for the info; if they're doing it, certainly someone else will catch on.

Some of us like the barbecue sauce taste more than the meat.
Last time I checked, a StarCat was pretty darn big. I guess if you WANT you can sneer at 106 CPUs....

By lugging around a Blade 100 in a laptop case instead.
Had to get this in before midnight :-)
Good thing security is MicroSoft's number one focus now!

Sad.
Which is why my phone is off unless I'm using it.

yah, we know Microsoft is NEVER a control freak.
That's exactly my point. What moron at ABit decided that PS/2 was dead? 'Cos that's what they say, effectively, in the page about this MB.

And it's a damn shame Gutenburg didn't work with the Church to BURN HIS PRESS TO THE GROUND.
may not need a mouse, but it bloody well needs a monitor and a keyboard ya think?
