  1. Re:i hate to say this but on Neural Networks In The Home? · · Score: 1

    If neural networks are involved, there's no need for a badge, just systems to gather input that would allow the house computer to recognize individuals by body/face/voice. I can't imagine being okay with wearing a badge around the house and making sure it's "visible at all times".

  2. Re:They probably aren't on Citifi.com Denies Alternate Browser Access · · Score: 1

    Moral: big money uses Netscape.

    Heh... Maybe on Wall Street. What I see (I work for a subsidiary of a very large multi-national financial institution) completely contradicts that. 85% of the entire corporation is running on Microsoft operating systems. About 14% running NetWare (that's about 90% of our server population) and the remaining 1% can account for the various others such as AS400, Unix, and OS/2 (sigh... nearly gone).

    Btw, there was a memo, about a year ago, maybe less, explicitly banning any and all forms of Linux from the company. Use of it on a company system/network is grounds for termination.

    So what browser do we use internally? Both. With a solid preference for IE.

    Face it, it works, it's simple to use, and it's not ugly. ;^) So is this not an example of the modern corporation? I haven't seen another since the pre-browser wars time....
