  1. Re:Well that sounds reasonable. on Google Updates Chrome's Terms of Service · · Score: 1

    Or the lawyers didn't understand what the product meant. "If we can get google to own user stuff in other products, let's do the same on this one".

    Agreed. I often want a lot of my data stored for simple convenience, but incognito lets me browse "porn" sites without clearing all of my data after the fact.

    There, fixed for you!

    What I see is a company that wants the cloud to get up and running. They are making sure this will happen.

    Their browser acts almos like an OS for the web. They even have a task manager!

    Too bad the beta binaries are only available for windows... :-(

    Both options have their pitfalls. But having an inconsistent state during typing is better than having it during browsing.

    Mmm. lets see. You type and press CTRL-T. What you typed, the new webpage and the focus goes to a new tab. Behind you stays a tab with the old page and its address. I don't see any problem at all

    I do care because I want *my* address bar under the tab ;-) ! As you said, is a matter of personnal opinion...

    I agree that there should be an option for the user. Changes are always hard and most frequent users get annoyed by that. I hated when IE7 messed up with the UI by placing the Menu Bar under Address bar does not make sense to me. Even they were smart enought to make it possible to flip them around

  8. Re:Very Interesting... on Google Chrome, the Google Browser · · Score: 1

    Even if the user is not aware of the address itself, the address bar still belong under the tab bar...
    Came to think of it: if the content of the address bar changes every time you chage a tab, it is much more reasonable place the tab on top

    Funny. At my job we too have hundreds of worstations (both windows and linux) running at least a coulpe of critical java apps and we don't have 1% of the problems you are reporting.

    Those standards are enforced to all developers. Those who produce far more will continue to produce far more when compared to the others...

  11. Re:Age on Why Corporates Hate Perl · · Score: 1
    I agree with you. Its not the technology that its legacy, its the program. It doesn't matter which technology was used, if the program is old then its legacy. From the dictionary: Legacy - Something handed down from an ancestor or a predecessor or from the past.

    The point is "old" doesn't mean "old technology".

  12. Re:That is great news! But.. on Dell's Subnotebook To Ship With Ubuntu · · Score: 1

    Suddenly Ubuntu moves on a version or two and people still running the old gadget are left in no man's land with support issues. The people who really understand Linux are too busy with the new gadget to support the old.

    This subnotebook comes with ubuntu 8.04, wich is an LTR (Long Term Support) release. Canonical will support it for 3 years. Seems enough to me.
