for instance if you search for "Widget Model XJ123" it will now find a page by a manufacturer where the only place they list it is in a pulldown list that lets you choose the product to buy.
Shenanigans! And I've been looking everywhere for that elusive XJ123, since the manufacturer stopped producing it. How dare you get my hopes up you insensitive clod!
I have been using OO.org in conjunction with the ZOHO/Google Apps plugin to make Google Apps and ZOHO Office an extension to OO.org....and even cooler, the ZOHO developer API allows me to use ZOHO as an extension of my other web apps. So, what are the advantages of using this with MS Office?
In my quest for cross-platform capabilities, I have been using apps that generally work this way. Most of my word processor, spreadsheet, presentation, PDF (Zoho reader), documents are accessible to me in quite a few ways.
1. OO.org 2. ZOHO Office 3. Google Apps 4. The eyeOS desktop installed on my own web server.
What I would like to see now is the ability to sync them all without OO.org and use one OpenID with all of the services.
Granted the x200 is a little bigger, and not 3G ready... but out of the box it's pretty good. I got the 933 version and upgraded it to 640Mb of memory and Win2k. It runs snappy, Firefox and Thunderbird run good, and if I want the extra features, I just snap it into the dock with the DVD/CDR, floppy drive and more.
So if you want a pretty good alternative to buying the Mini 12 that's pretty inexpensive, check out the x200.

Space exploration should not be a race, and it should not be for profit. Space exploration should be a cooperative effort of everyone willing to support it.
I'm ultimately opposed to it being under control of any government, and strongly opposed to it being privatized.
I don't know a whole lot about space, but I'm willing to bet there are a lot of people who would support a global not-for-profit and non-aligned foundation for space exploration.
Umm.... they were looking for CHEAP Electricity. If the rates in the Buffalo/Niagara area are anything like the Syracuse Area, they'll want to avoid it like the plague.
So, I'm going to pay for another agency who's job will be to Sue me on the behalf of copyright holders?
NO! I don't think that will work.
Copyright law is something that needs to upheld by the Copyright Holder. Just like the police don't arrest you for not paying your bills, the government shouldn't have an agency to arrest people for copyright infringement. The government's place should be to police crimes that affect the public and taking further jurisdiction is a violation of citizen's rights, as well as the rights of the copyright holders themselves. (the right to choose not to sue an infringer)
I hope the federal courts do strike this down. The Government has no business interfering in private interests.
The actual building might not be in Chicago (It isn't)... but there's nothing to say there isn't a scale model of it there...
If there are scale models of ships and cars and other popular buildings, why not the Empire State Building... hell.... I bet there's a scale model of the WTC somewhere too... (the old one, and the one they want to rebuild)
...and for others who are more interested in Mozilla's licensing schemes (like I was after reading your post about it being tri-licensed) I think http://www.mozilla.org/MPL/ sums it up nicely. (though your link is helpful as well)
Is this where the Eudora code base is going to Join Thunderbird?
Perhaps it's a way for Thunderbird to stop playing second string to Firefox, and have a dedicated set of developers. That would be great, since there is so much potential if T-Bird gets developed independently.... it just seems like devs get burned out putting new code/features into Firefox, then Thunderbird is just an afterthought.
I would like to see some kind of P2P integration with E-Mail, so for example, my E-Mail program could try to deliver directly to anyone in my address book who is also logged in to the peer network at the time. No more need to storage of the mail on ISP's servers, since it is delivered directly when possible. Something like an IM Service that works like E-Mail... (ie: allows file attachments and doesn't pop up in your face all the time)
I also want the ability to use my GMail account like an IMAP account, since the E-Mail that comes into it is always stored on their server anyway. All that would initially be downloaded would be the headers and Body, anything else is only downloaded when requested. Then, when I close Thunderbird, it's not Stored on my machine, just cached for a short while and deleted at regular intervals.
I haven't tried this with CS3... but here is Dreamweaver 8
I was able to get the extension manager, fireworks, and flash working this way.... but not contribute.... but I'm still working on that since I think it uses the IE component, and I just have to install IE.
Seeing that they work under WINE... and quite well, it would be cool if they could work with Codeweavers like Google did to at least hit the Linux market.
Wouldn't "Wachovia" be ebonics for "Watch over you"... as in "AT&T is going to Wachovia"... didn't they get in trouble for that last year? Is this a "W" inspired technology?
We have an Apple and an NT server at work since our page designers and editors use OS X and everyone else uses Windows. (The apple server covers just about everything but accounting and subscriptions)
Some of the tools I find extremely useful are VNC, and PuTTY (I assume any SSH client will work, but my workstation is Windows at work)...I also use Hamachi for some things (when I need to do stuff from home)
Aside from them, I have a few Shell scripts for the Apple Server, and web services turned on for the Intranet so I often find myself putting together PHP scripts for doing tasks.
I assume this method would work on other configurations as well, since VNC and SSH seem to be everywhere.

Works with Google Docs, Zoho, and WebDAV.
It's like Sharepoint and Live Office in one.

There. Fixed that for you.

The mini 12 reminds me of an updated version of the x200 I bought off eBay for $200 ( http://reviews.zdnet.co.uk/hardware/notebooks/0,1000000333,10000587,00.htm )
Granted the x200 is a little bigger, and not 3G ready... but out of the box it's pretty good. I got the 933 version and upgraded it to 640Mb of memory and Win2k.

Sometimes the snappy comment comes before the proof reading. I admit that the apostrophe doesn't belong anywhere in the subject.

Yes.

I imagine it could be construed as a "Catastrophic Emergency"
It seems like this ?
I bought one of these for my Nephew this last Christmas... not sure if he's lost all of the parts yet or not...

...and for others who are more interested in Mozilla's licensing schemes (like I was after reading your post about it being tri-licensed) I think http://www.mozilla.org/MPL/ sums it up nicely. (though your link is helpful as well)
GPL?
I thought it was released under the MPL like all the other Mozilla software?
Yep... SOL, unless you go to

These Guys have been doing that for years. Right along side the computers built from junk the consumers shipped back.
If you don't mind copying them over from a Windows installation, at least *some* Adobe apps run.
