I'm interested in tablet PCs, mainly because I'm a Mac zealot and it's interesting to see Microsoft moving into an area way ahead of Apple. Also, I saw Bill Gates demo one at a conference.
I was in O'Hare airport last week and they had a kiosk set up with several models. I went up to play with one, but they gave me a canned demo instead. From this I conclude that they do not hold up well upon first use. Is that accurate? If so, how long does it take before using one feels natural?
Um, on what basis do you say that? Doesn't that contradict the study? Maybe you're able to tune out all the visual stuff, but sounds like most people form an opinion about credibility way before they get to the content.
"I just can't say enough about it," he said. "I get at least 30 albums a month or so at 10 bucks a month. That's 10 cents each."
Eh?

The First Smiley :-)

· Score: 1
In my experience, smileys are used so often in parenthetical asides that it is almost standard practice to have the smiley coincide and merge with the closing paren. (Sorry, can't come up with an example.:-)
The other thing you can do is use an alternative smiley (like this [-: ). Then you only mess up bracket matching. Guess you just have to make an even number of humorous comments.;]
Seems like you could use this for a lot more than just spam filtering. Couple of ideas: sorting into folders by type (personal/work), urgency, which project it pertains to... In each case, all you need is a corpus of messages with the given characteristic.
Microsoft is now considering selling My Services to corporations in a traditional package form, rather than as a service. The companies would maintain the data for their own users.
"Frankly selling this stuff to people who build large data centers with our software is not a bad model," Mr. Fitzgerald said.
IOW, a common code base with the typical MS attention to security, but maintained by thousands of clueless sysadmins rather than by a single company who at least might see fit to install updates. So instead of a single point of failure, you suddenly have hundreds. Fun!
Enable me to have separate comment viewing prefs for when I'm a moderator. Changing them back and forth is annoying. Plus then they could be set automatically to more socially responsible defaults.
If a comment below my threshold has a child which is above my threshold, I think that should be clearer; ideally, in between the visible grandparent and the visible child should be a link to the invisible parent.
Were you trying to look stupid, or was it an accident?
The original post contained "your" three times; the first and third were wrong.
If your running Win9x/ME, then XP is worth the upgrade (providing your hardware can handle it). But if your on 2k already, you probably wont see any change in stability, just in performance.

I didn't see the Top 30 page. Where is it?
What's the tool for SQL queries?
I read this as "specs" and though, "No, we send specs to India!"
If they're still together in 2014, we've got bigger problems than planet-destroying asteroids.
I would appreciate you not mentioning masturbation and "cheese grater" in the same sentence.

sublicensemusic.com just doesn't have the same ring to it.

Does "they" refer to the knives or the spouse?
Thanks, now my TiBook is covered with nasal coffee.

Are you telling me I'm the only one who noticed her coffee cup is backwards?
This is not an ideal solution, but it worksforme on bash:
My PS1 is set to
\u@\h: `~/bin/pwd-short` {\!}
pwd-short is a Perl script:
chomp ($pwd = `pwd`);
$pwd = "..$1" if $pwd =~ m/.{4}(.{20})$/;
print $pwd;

Any other ideas?
$2,700 + $300 = $4,000?

I have a friend who's a professional cellist. IIRC his cello was around $60K. When you hear him play, you know where the money went.

U.S. News and World Report has an interesting article about wind power in its current issue.
