    It didn't crash on New Year's, it was just being cleaned.

    I have a 19" touting 16ms response time, and I'm proud to say that it plays movies well, plays fast paced games well--Enemy Territory, HL2 both look beautiful, even with lots of fast movement.

    Don't name names or anything ;)

    Sure, you laugh about it, but being able to have two emails at once makes it easier to retype the one you are replying to.

    Mr. Owl, how many licks does it take to get to the solid inner center of the Earth?

    What if we're in a simulated universe, simulating other universes?

    Yeah, the Earth could be, like, a giant computer, and we're just the bits flowing through it.

    Well, I think it's time to go to the bar. YMMV.

  12. Re:Detroit did this? on 2-Year OpenOffice High School Case Study · · Score: 1

    Maybe someone threw a beer at Clippy, starting a brawl, which resulted in Clippy not being allowed in Detroit schools anymore. This is this outcome.

  13. Re:How does this increase adoption rate? on IPv6 for the Linksys WRT54G · · Score: 1
    You can change port forwarding without a router reboot on Linksys routers.

    Stay away from the WRV54g POS, though. It's more reboot happy for config changes than NT 4 was.

    Should that be a blanket warning on anything with a fillable orifice?

    This should be a wake up call to the makers of Real Doll.

  22. Re:Cancel button after download on IE7 Will Have Tabbed Browsing · · Score: 2, Informative
    Seemingly "clever" developers have apparently figured out ways to make their applications still come to focus regardless of that setting.

    Microsoft Office mostly ignores the "prevent focus grabbing" option. Some applications (Track-IT from Intuit comes to mind) also abuse the "focus follows mouse" option, jumping to the foreground when they get mouse focus.

  23. Re:Office next? on IE7 Will Have Tabbed Browsing · · Score: 1

    Thank you! That wonderful option is right there in Excel 2003, and it makes Excel handle multiple workbooks in the manner I want again.

    It's also there in Word 2003, PowerPoint 2003 and Access 2003.

  24. Re:Easy... on Updating Free Software in the Enterprise? · · Score: 1
    Is there possibly a portion of the group policy which would run an msi/executable update?

    Yes. It's the "Software Settings" section under both Computer and User in Group Policy. It requires (AFAIK) an actual MSI, not one packed into a "setup.exe". It allows publication to Add/Remove Programs by user, and assignment for users or computers. You can also set upgrades there, as well as transforms.

    Check these guys out as well. Their Firefox MSI works fine through GPO.
