If this is the case, then it seems that wordspy should define the verb "to microsoft" as "to crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of the women".
I believe the point that he was trying to make was that OpenBSD is not as hackable/crackable as Linux. That said, I wouldn't mind seeing Jeff Gordon, Emeril Lagasse, & Linus collaborate with Brian & James on the 3rd edition:)
A mind is like a parachute; it needs to be tightly packed and ripped open, preferably with a reserve.
Thing(s) you would be likely to get for Cowboy Neal in trade:

Like the 2 hours that you need to basically dedicate your broadband connection to download the movie, the 700MB of local disk space to store the movie, and the obligatory reboot that will be required somewhere along the way because it _must_ be a Windows machine.
I hope this doesn't kill any renewable energy projects that Canada has in the works. Yes, this will buy them more time but they, like the rest of the world will wake up one morning and discover that the fossil fuels are gone. Sooner than most people realize. No, I don't own a hybrid car, and no, my house isn't solar powered. But I do think that GM has the right idea (shockingly!)
I disagree. As more of the web content moves to an XML/ model, then the issue of how fast your browser can render becomes much more important. I remember noticing a surprising difference in speed the first few times I went to a site that used CSS (cascading style sheets). More and more of the content that a browser receives isn't plain HTML anymore. It's got Java and Javascript (sometimes so much Javascript it's scary), and stylesheets, and Flash and animated images. Browser speed is definitely still an issue.
Got an idea? Be nice to it, it's a long way from home.
Besides, it's not like this is an actual attempt to promote more secure, cost-effective software. In the end this is just a tool to try and wedge better pricing and terms out of Microsoft. Been done before.
It would be different from one campus to the next (and even from one building to the next). The university that I went to had a couple of power outages that cancelled classes in the engineering and science departments, but not in the liberal arts and architecture departments. The latter were older buildings in which the classrooms all had windows to let in daylight:) (go figure)
You now have a tremendous reliance on clean, stable power. Without more details, I would imagine that there are additional cooling facilities that become critical, not just desireable. I would hope that there is an extremely fast turnaround on equipment repair and maintenance or that paper you need to finish for tomorrow could be late...
I think that I shall never see a poem as lovely as a Mobile P4 2Ghz, 512MB, 30GB, 2.2lb laptop.
Eventually? Got news for you, we're there. Big companies are currently lobbying to lessen the new proposed penalties for corporate accounting inaccuracies, the entertainment industry lobbies to have DRM built into the entire infrastructure, tobacco lobbies to keep a known cancer-causing substance freely available, oil companies lobby to allow drilling development in national wildlife preserves... Not to mention Microsoft being the largest monopoly in the world, but apparently a "good" one, since the gov't isn't really going to do anything to the company.
The immoral of the story is "If you've got enough money, the government will do whatever you want."
It would be a pretty sweet deal for Microsoft to have a law that requires the use of Microsoft technology in every computing device.
That is EXACTLY where they're going!!! The biggest threat to Windows, second maybe to the server market, is the embedded market. Right now Linux is ideal because it can be scaled and customized to fit whatever embedded device the designer has in mind. If proprietary DRM features are legally mandated, then the embedded Windows will be the only practical option out there.
As long as the hardware (public key chips) that are going to be built-in don't require a monetary license fee to ineteroperate, Linux should be able to compete in this space. Of course that will also depend on complete specifications being published... Can you say SMB?
And if you have some sort of filesystem snapshot activity in place (whether linux native or a'la Network Appliance nfs-mount home directories) then it's just a matter of tar'ing back from the most recent snapshot.
When in Doubt, you really should check out the theater district and the public gardens. Most tourists tend to miss these.

I am an assistant network engineer at a large midwestern university...
I never thought a wireless project like this would happen to me. I was sitting in the study lounge in my dorm when this sexy coed network engineer walks up and asks, "I see you have a seven layer OSI model. That really turns me on..."
The point is that this was a 2-hour recap-slash-cliff-hanger to get lots of hype so they can really cash in on another movie. This was _not_ a series finale. M*A*S*H had a great series finale; St. Elsewhere had a pretty good one; Newhart (the one about the Bed & Breakfast) had a good one. There are many more that I won't name. I'm less than impressed and might watch the next movie on cable. If I'm bored. And a professional Curling tournament isn't on...

Can't the military use the same google searches that the rest of us use?
my other contact lenses are beer googles
I looked through several online dictionaries as well as Merriam-Webster (not the Unabridged site) and I can only find definitions for "google" that are in fact google.
If this is the case, then it seems that wordspy should define the verb "to microsoft" as "to crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of the women".

This isn't a new phenomenon(sp?) People have liked big crowds for years. The bigger the crowd, the more people show up for it.
Apologies to Gallagher...
I think the conventional (and most descriptive) term for this behavior is flash crowd.
I thought the term was Crowds Gone Wild!

I forgot that the rpm filename and directory path have a different 'source' designation. Thanks!

For other arch's, substitute 'ia64' or 'SRPMS' for 'i386' (no s390 yet). Also available on RH62 for i386, alpha & sparc...
