Here is the specific item from my copy of XP Pro. The limit is on the number of connections not on usage.
1.3 Device Connections. You may permit a maximum of ten (10)
computers or other electronic devices (each a "Device") to
connect to the Workstation Computer to utilize one or more of
the following services of the Software: File Services, Print
Services, Internet Information Services, and remote access
(including connection sharing and telephony services). The
ten connection maximum includes any indirect connections made
through "multiplexing" or other software or hardware which
pools or aggregates connections. This ten connection maximum
does not apply to any other uses of the Software.
The OS was never deactivated. Only downloads through windows update was not possible. However people could still download patches and Service packs from direct URLs in various technet articles and update their OS.

Windows Media Encoder 9 produces the best quality video I have ever seen from any encoder. I used to be a DivX 5 fan but Microsoft seems have beaten everything as far as quality of the video is concerned. I am not much of a audiophile so I can't comment on the audio quality. (though I couldn't make out any difference between the source audio and the encoded audio)
Here is the encoder params I used if anybody is interested in trying. cd %ProgramFiles%\Windows Media Components\Encoder cscript wmcmd.vbs -input C:\test\recordedshow.mpg -output C:\test\encoded.wmv -a_codec WMA9PRO -a_mode 4 -a_setting Q100_44_2_24 -v_framerate 24 -v_mode 4 -v_bitrate 700000 -v_performance 100 -v_height 384 -v_width 720 -v_clip 0 96 0 96
Used the WinDVD 4 mpeg2 decoder with the NOVIDEODROP registry setting.
The multiple observe classroom feature seems pretty neat!
Windows can do this too (See Shadowing Remote Desktop) but it isn't as elegent as Apple's solution.
setup a terminal services server hosting eDocs and let people who need as access to the server to connect to it over terminal services.
There are terminal services clients available for Mac and windows
Also read this article for details about making Terminal Services secure if you decide to go by this route.
Don't think so. Microsoft has a profittable Mac business and press release says they will continue to support and develop for all platforms Connextix currently supports.
A Unicode encoding issue in.NET can cause all fonts to display as squares instead of letters in Netscape 4
This is because of Netscape 4's faulty handling of UTF-8 characters not a.NET issue.
The default encoding in ASP.Net is UTF-8.
You can change the default in your globally in web.config or per response in your aspx page.
Microsoft's Java implementation was the best java implementation at it time. Microsoft had the fastest java implementation and much more stable than Nestscape's version (the other java version I had developed for). In addtion before JBuilder, VJ++ was the best java development envoirnment. Symantec's Visual Cafe totally sucked in comparison.
After Sun got Microsoft to stop shipping Java our client decided to scarp the java project we were working on. I wish Sun had never sued Microsoft in the first place. Microsoft would have had to forever ship java. So what if they Microsoft added some extensions like delegates and support for activex. The added funtionality was really an advantage. Sun should have assimlated these extentions into the Java standard. Instead java has not had any major language enchancements in the past 10 years. We are currently exploring.net and compared to java it really looks very appealing. I hope Sun doesn't succeed in stopping Microsoft from shipping the.Net runtime along with its OSs.

The EULA limits apply only to software that come with the OS.
XP home doesn't have IIS.
You may run any third party program that you want.
It only applies to sofware that is built into to the OS. So you may run any other webserver (like Apache).

Then they are wrong.
I have XP Pro and it doesn't have any clause about webservers or fileservers.
If I wanted to do that with XP Pro I'd be in violation of the EULA
XP home edition cannot be used as a webserver or fileserver.
You can use XP Pro for your webserving/file serving needs.
Home edition doesn't have IIS built into it. Only XP Pro does.
The comparison was between the XP home edition EULA and GPL.
You are not in voilation.
They are comparing the XP Home edition EULA.
The professional version which you are using doesn't have that clause.
Too bad GamePro, Slashdot and other sites feel for it.

I don't understand why Microsoft is promoting it.
It is an embarrassment to Microsoft.

mget is a FTP client command.
FTP servers don't understand mget.
When you issue a mget the FTP client will issue seperate requests for each file.
You can get similar functionality in HTTP using WebDAV clients.
limit of 2 connections per server is a recommendation in the HTTP spec.

Its no secret that Longhorn will have a new API which makes some of the difficult tasks that currently require using PInvoke much easier.
