AFAIK, Waterson isn't mentioned by either Scott McCloud in his books on comics, and not even by Will Eisner. Perhaps I don't remember the reference, if someone can point out the reference it would be interesting.
Microsoft's Antispyware is by no means a perfect anti-spyware solution.
There are practically no sites that do not work with Firefox - the few that do not are badly coded sites so it's their fault. IE has many vulnerabilities and will always have more than Firefox... so you won't be safe.
Nowadays some people burn CD-R's using their PC's and sell them the full price as normal audio CD's. They don't claim they are CD-R's yet they are. They even use the CD Audio logo too. I have seen this locally, I should add. Perhaps it is being done in other countries. I think selling a CD-R is ok, yet the disk should be labelled as such (CD-R).
I remember when I put the first Maltese audio streaming online back in '97. It was a fantastic experience. Now I have two internet radios (mp3 streams) netcast via live365.com. One is for songs by Maltese artists and the other is for praise and worship songs.
Try watching the new Doctor Who series. It's a breath of fresh air.... interesting tv with great characters and emotional issues, plus enough sci-fi to blow your mind off. It is amazing how RTD (the producer) managed to reinvigorate the show and combined old aspects with new ones, and came up with various gems of episodes.
Christopher Eccleston played the Doctor in the first year of the new show, now David Tennant is taking over the role (the Doctor has regenerated).
A third series has been announced too.
From GallifreyOne: The BBC's audience research for the first series of "Doctor Who" has shown some major developments for the channel. The series average to date, in final numbers, has been 8.2 million viewers and a 40% share; episode one had the highest audience for a new Doctor (jointly held with Tom Baker's debut in 1974) and the second highest launch of a new series (behind season 17 in 1979). The show strongly skewed toward both children and 35-44 year old age brackets, with an average overnight AI (audience index) ranking of 83, higher than normal for BBC drama. 63% of viewers said their main reason for watching episode 1 was because of the trailer, while 22% said their main reason for watching episode 6 was to see the Daleks. However, 68% said it was because they were enjoying the series. Over 90% of viewers polled say the Doctor Who is "good family viewing" but 19% had concerns about children being scared by the series, highest amongst older women. Just 6% of parents who watched Doctor Who wouldn't allow their children to watch. 59% of the audience think Doctor Who is better than other drama,a nd a massive 82% of the audience are "Very likely" to watch the new series, with a further 14% are quite likely.
My favourite online shop for computer parts is Chillblast Computers. They are reliable and ship outside of the UK even by courier. I also have had good experiences with Stuff-uk.net though they don't have as much stuff as Chillblast, yet sometimes they have something the other online shops don't.
And if you create the par2 based upon an iso formed from your files, you can get better recovery even if let's say the directory itself gets corrupted!
Correct. I use Quickpar however. Make an iso file before you burn your data on the dvd, and burn it, then create a Quickpar par2 file from that file. The Hydrogenaudio site forums have some posts on this subject too.
Administering Linux requires specialist knowledge, most people shouldn't install linux on their own but get someone to install it, configure it, then they will be up and running and using it will be easy.

Actually even Will Eisner rebelled against the constrained panel layouts, well before Waterson.

There are ads on DVD's now, you know... the ones that start playing as soon as you put the dvd in..

Mine is to show the new Doctor Who Series on BBC Prime for those of us outside the UK...
Various banks still used OS/2 until recently...
So perhaps there is some demand in niche sectors for an open source derivative..

Then buying no-name monitors at local stores in non-US countries, will result in many problems.
Can Longhorn still notwithstanding this become popular. I hope not.
Keep Doctor Who, another BBC program and a quite successful one recently, safe from this madness, please...
I heard on Euronews that scientists have discovered
that Virtual Reality improves IQ and Education...
I left this out. The E-ID is to be used to access government services online.
Malta's E-ID identification is similarly Windows only because it was programmed by Microsoft. Similarly it excludes other OSes.
Ghostscript gives me an error too...

If the source is open anyone should be able to modify it, no? Otherwise they would be in violation of the GPL...

It isn't the name brand which is important but who manufactured them.
The best dvd media is Taito yudens for instance..
Use software which identifies the id e.g dvd indentifier.

I'm surprised she doesn't mention Doctor Who since she's British and the Doctor is really a british institution....
There were two good movies based on Doctor Who (the ones with the Daleks in them) starring Peter Cushing and the tv-movie with Paul McGann...
I almost thought the post was about Jack Kirby...
