You can damn well be sure ms is gonna try to patent it, roll it into windows, and try to charge a fee for every item delivered.
So being forced to hold down the 'control' key with Apple's one button mouse is damn near a mortal sin, yet holding down the 'alt' key to mive a window is perfectly understandable?
I'm running a theme that gives the metal interface to everything.
Not too shabby.

That's a major reason why Microsoft's "Trustworthy Computing" initiative is such a joke -- you can't get rid of the crapola, heck you can't even see the crapola!
I can see the crapola.

Interesting.
A dozen of distros with dozens of versions of each?
A bunch of people who take pride in recompiling the kernel every 6 hours complain that a certain vendor doesn't support their unique version of linux?
linux distros changing versions every 3 days?
Linux people have created a support nightmare for yourselves.
Live with it.
How about to a stack overflow?

Just as long as the city is no bigger than 5 square blocks and no one orders anything that weighs more than 10 pounds.
And all furniture has to be rattan, all beds have to be futons.
No ovens, no refrigerators, and no washing machines. Unless you put all of the houses on the outside of the city where vehicles can reach.
Not a bad business strategy at all. In fact, it's really good one.

Microsoft has always has the DOS/Windows OEM sales to keep them afloat when the first 2 revisions fail.

Are you high?
You'll still come out ahead.
And have peace of mind to boot.
I always wondered how they came up with that stuff.
I just purchased a dell 2100mp svga projector even though I need xga resolution. I just can't afford the extra $1000.
The svga supposedly give a good compressed picture all the way to 1600x1200.
I only need xga resolution. Anyone used this projector at xga resolution? It is a dlp model.
Thank you for any info.
And PowerBooks are too expensive right?

payments reduced to a comfortable amount.
And the payments may even qualify as tax deductable.
No mean no!
You don't ask a plumber if your pipes need fixing.
You should ask a urologist.
What a great supportive community slashdot is
/. before he started.
10% saying 'good job. Go for it'.
30% saying 'you'll be sued and I feel somewhat happy about it'.
60% saying 'you'll fail miserably'
