Then perhaps you ought to reread what you wrote.
The number9 was supported, as noted in your article, just not accelerated- which is why acceleratedX was faster. Why was XFree's driver so slow? Because #9 wouldn't release specs without an NDA. Xi was able to sign NDA's since they didn't have any problems releasing binaries without source, so they had the information needed to provide accelerated support for the #9 Imagine. And where is #9 today?

If I remember correctly, it's a packet with the network card's mac address repeated numerous times, possibly some other garbage included. The computer never completely shuts down the nic, and then when the nic hears it's 'name' called out repeatedly, it signals the computer to wake up.

I'm kinda curious as to who's working on Montery these days. With IBM moving steadily to the penguin side of the force, and SCO selling off major portions to Caldera, Sequent is about the only one left to whole-heartedly support it. Is Montery going to fade off, ala CDE?

It would have been nice if they'd actually told some people about this. I live about 10 miles from that convention center and this is the first I've heard of it.
I could be wrong, but I think Terminal Reality Inc was the first game company to be bought out by Microsoft, way back in 95....
Ha! nowhere near- Try subLogic (Flight Simulator) back in the mid 80's. Good example of Microsoft's technique, buy a company, kill off support for competitors, refine the hell out of it, but all 'innovation' is dead.

Micorsoft's constant usage of the word 'innovate' has allways annoyed me, so I just looked it up on Merriam-Webster's site- 1 : to introduce as or as if new Well, that actually sounds about right. So..., Microsoft believes that they are loosing the right to introduce technology as if it were new.

Oooh, too bad they didn't include Windows98-- "While Windows2000 had many good points, they were far out done by the ease of use of Windows98. Without the difficulty of adding printers and users to the Active Directory, 98's file and printer sharing services were a breeze to configure. Just click and share!" Anybody notice their complaints about having to edit nasty, asci, text files to set up printers under Linux, and then created custom LMHOST files for each of the clients to distribute requests across multiple interfaces on the server?
According to NTma g, SP6 went into beta test in July. Although I find it hard to believe MS would do this on purpose (breaking Notes on Win2k wouldn't suprise me), surely one of their 'premiere customers' (or is it 'pre-mire'?) was using Notes.
Did they decide to add a few more 'fixes' at the last moment? Trying to avoid having SP7 in beta test 2 weeks after the release of 6? Pressure to just get it out the door? Or is NT starting to collapse under it's own code weight?
Seems like MS's developement is being run entirely by the marketing department.

Maybe, but it's a better holdover than using a letter designation for each drive volume.

Microsoft don' need no stinkin' multiuser!
>However please note that Windows 2000 does have a multiuser kernel.
Oooo, users don't need mutiuser, but we'll give it to them just in case. How thoughtfull. But only if they shell out the big bucks for the 'Advanced' version.
