I don't know what kind of 70' pimp mobile you drive but all modern cars come with some sort of security device.
My 03' Saab 93 has OnStar which can track the car to within 5 feet. The car's alarm goes off if anyone enters the car without disarming the alarm with the keyfob. What more do you want them to do? Ship cars with a cop in the trunk?
I don't know what car you drive but all new GM cars have onstar which does precisly this. They can pinpoint car via GPS to within 5 feet.
I call Onstar the other day and they greeted me with my exact location. If this helps them give me better directions and diagnoise my car (03 Saab 93) via satellite, more power to them!
You mean like this one? http://apache.mirrorcentral.com/dist/httpd/h ttpd-2.0.47-win32-src.zip http://apache.mirrorcentral.c om/dist/httpd/binarie s/win32/apache_2.0.47-win32-x86-no_ssl.msi
It is almost the same thing. In the article it says that even though there is no LCD (Too expensive and power hungry) you have the option to delete pictures that you think won't turn out good.
Woah there nellie. Where did I say I was fond of VC 7? I love my VC6 but if you want that steady paycheck coming, you use the compiler your boss asks you to use:)
I installed VC.NET on my workstation last week and I simply declined to install IIS and all the web extentions since all I really wanted was the C++ compiler. You CAN do this. You just have to unselect the packages you don't need. (The default install includes the kitchen sink and is over 4 gigs!)
H1Bs are people who are working for Sun *in* America, earning in dollars, playing taxes (and paying into medicare and social security, which will never provide them with benifits!) and spending dollars in the US economy.
Next time RTFA, try to understand the diffrence between H1Bs and outsourcing to India and go get your shinebox boy.
How many highschool/college kids do you know of that have been busted for using warez?
None of these companies claim that the kids at home are costing them lost sales on the thousand dollar packages. It's piracy in countries where there are no or weak copyright law.
A lot of the Asian countries are called "One sale" countries. Know why? Sell one seat of your program there and the whole country will get a pirated copy.
I have walked on the streets of Bombay/Singapore/Hong Kong where you can buy CDs of absolutely any title under the sun for less than a dollar.
The people who actually cost the big software companies money are businesses that use pirated software and that is exactly what they are trying to stop... the distribution of the software.
Pirating one copy which you would have never bought is not so bad (according to the big companies) but distributing 100 copies of Windows / Paintshop a day to anyone who might actually use it commercially is wrong!
They don't go after joe warez kid at home, they go after Chris "I provide over 1 TB of pirated software a day".
From the article: With record-breaking initial orders of 4.5 million copies, the game will be available at retail outlets worldwide in multiple languages beginning on July 3, 2002.
Do what you want, with 4.5 million pre orders, they are sitting pretty.
A linux users group boycotting Blizzard games is like Billy boy boycotting linux. Lol

For a moment when I read the title of the story I thought SCO was claiming rights to good ol DOS :)

Next time try buying better hardware you cheap bastard
And did you ever try this in a windows app before bashing Mirosoft?
Works just fine in Excel and has for years. (even works in freekin mozilla)

Can we add whatever language they speak in Iraq to the list? ;)
Do you understand what a H1-B means? RTFA man!

I wondered why that sub had autodesk written all over it. A little googling and here is the reason: Inventor
This is not entirly accurate. They charge *you* a oil disposal fee everyrime you get a oil change (atleast here in the midwest thay do).

Look more carefuly at the bill/receipt they give you, it is usually a buck or buck fitty.
The Program Formerly Known As Pheonix
Microsoft was notified on th 10th of this month. I doubt they release *any* patch without regression testing it for 2-3 weeks.
Next time RTFA.
The sources to the Windows operating system has been shared by microsoft for a long long time.

All major universities with comp sci progams have the sources.
Look yha,

Screw you ROC guys, I am going home!
You are right. Because Joe User loves to download the src code and hack away!
Having the option to do something is not the same as actually being able to doing it.
I have the option to buy new sports car. The ablity to afford it is not included in the option now, is it?
I am sure there is a celeb edition of Fear Factor comming up......
When the Xbox came out, I did a paer on it for my marketing class and I concluded that microsoft was selling it for almost a $100 hit.
However proices of computer components have been dropping consistently and I am not convinced that MS still loses money on Xbox hardware.
Can anyone comment on this?

What is so wrong with that????
Do any of you actually read the articles before posting?
The exam has been cancelled worldwide. No one can take the CS gre till they have retooled it.
The answer is simple, include the robots.txt file on your webserver and google won't crawl your site caching the pages.
Can't have it both ways bud.
Reasons why we are gonna fry:

1.) Bruce Willis and his crack crew of drillers will be too old to do this in 16.7 (approx) years.
2.) NASA can don't basic math.
