"Simple, I will FINALY be able to AFFORD to read books.
What the f**k kind of books do you read and how much?? are you some looser sitting in your mom's basement playing on your tandy spending all your money on porno 'cause you coulden't get a girlfreind due to your 5 year plan that starts with getting a job in a PORNO STORE so you can buy cheeper porno? If you can't afford BOOKS, I'm suprised you could afford the electricity to post your innane and offtopic reply to this story. we are all stupider for having read this.

I personally like IE better, I am not sure why. A lot of my friends ask me why i like it better and I never have a good answer.
well timmy, king of fjords, let's see... is it 'cause all your other freinds are using IE? Maybe it's cause Netscape still fundamentaly has it's head up it's ass.
"I don't see Microsoft having an opensource browser, do you? "
*ahem* it IS a better product. Helloooooooo???? The article is about the lack of full support for web standards in the Modzilla project, at this point.
"In a number of cases, Mozilla engineers have fixed standards-compliance bugs and have had their patches to the source code reviewed twice by senior engineers. Even when the patches are extraordinarily simple ones"
Sounds like typical management to me. The idea is usualy to attach yourself to anything that may wind up being a good idea. Leaching credit for good work is SOP in every corporation I have seen. Do we realy think Bill Gates or Steve Jobs wrote every line of code themselves? yet who gets the credit? By exhaustively reviewing the fixes, it allows them to take some credit for the fixes themselves, or, if they actualy find a flaw, all that much better. it's a win win......

Have you ever tried to REBUILD a thinkpad? snap the keyboard cable while you are changing out the CDRom? Download six difrent drivers for the integrated modem before finding the right one? Ya, there are worse, but none of them kept me up nights.
Don't know about the rest of you, but my experiance with the IBM notebooks has been less than sterling. Prehaps they are taking the much needed time to put out a decent product, instead of rushing something to market, as has been the norm.
hmmmm, let's see, wait for a cloudy day with about a 200' celing, load up missle command and freak out the city. there has to be a law about this somewhere..;)
Would someone please shot down that aging pile of floating crap. All we need is for another major incident to happen, thus giving the anti-space exploration lobby more ammo. NASA must be having a fit.
The area that I do question is how much is actually shared - most of the people I see out there are taking, not contributing to the Gnutella and the like.
For my own part, I think there is a certain feeling of "it's OK if I take, but if I share, I'll be caught" It's the diference between finding a $10 bill on the sidewalk and intentionaly shortchanging someone. The guilt level is oh so much less.
How about implementing a secure citrix enviorment where no senditive data is stored on the laptop? This would still allow exec's to work remotely, but leave the information secure.
Well, he said "attack atempts" not specificaly portscans. I know I was a little freaked out at getting 30+ allerts on my first day running a firewall, and found out later most of them were just ping requests.

Shure! Never said they were perfect, just better. Besides, MS stock is headed back up.
pardon me, I actualy said, "at this point"
you didn't read it right!
Yes, I did. Thats why I said "right now"
"Right now, IE is still the better browser.

Agreed on the CDROM, but on some modles, you have to remove the keyboard to do so. Rebuilding refers to reloading the software. get a clue.
Some modles of thinkpad, you had to remove the keyboard to swap out the CDROM/Floppy
Have you ever tried to REBUILD a thinkpad? snap the keyboard cable while you are changing out the CDRom? Download six difrent drivers for the integrated modem before finding the right one? Ya, there are worse, but none of them kept me up nights.

physical state immune to certain types of information-corrupting "noise,"
In the corporate world, we call this "management"
hmmmm, let's see, wait for a cloudy day with about a 200' celing, load up missle command and freak out the city. there has to be a law about this somewhere..;)
Well, as long as we are going to do that, could we pack away a few of the "less desireable" *coughtacobellchiuauacough* elements on board?

Meet the world's newest class of persecuted artists: computer hackers.
Would that be performance art?
The treaty makes it illegal to write or possess hacking software. Currently, both are legal in the U.S.
What could be considered hacking software? FTP?
The Council of Europe has promised to provide a list of exceptions to the treaty, and professional network administrators will likely end up exempt.
So we are all going to wind up using IE3.0 whilst "profesional" network admins RULE THE WORLD (manic laughter..etc....)
bunch of kiddies get their systems together in one room and try to blow the hell out of eachother in Quake arena.
So true, now what's your IP again???
Only one man would give me the rasbery.......
