I don't know if this trick works in W2k, but on the NT4 CD is something called the HQTool (Hardware Query Tool) that is supposed to check your hardware for compatibility with NT before you attempt to intall it. You have to use rawrite.exe to copy an image to a floppy, and lo and behold, the OS on the floppy is MS DOS 6.22. That trick has saved me numerous times when I needed a DOS boot floppy.
The german government is not forbidding individuals to use the software, it is forbidding the government to use the software. In the same way, the US government forbids the government to use software written outside the US, because it is seen as a potential security hazard.
The Founding Fathers did not define 'religion' the way that we do today. To them, religion was Christianity. Any other 'religion' was heathenism. Thus, the intent of the 1st Ammendment was not tolerance for all religious beliefs, but rather tolerance for those who acknowledge Jesus Christ to be the Son of God only. There was to be no Church of the United States as there was a Church of England.
It's obvious that you haven't read the reviews of Terminus, or else you'd know that it isn't just a FPS. It is a mentally difficult game, with an advanced AI. Your missions are more than just kill the other guy: you have to protect weaker ships on your own side, trade goods, and more. Know what you're talking about before you post, next time.
REBOOT.COM is a MSDOS program to reboot the computer. Use DEBUG.EXE the enter the hex codes, and then save the result as REBOOT.COM. Run the program whenever you need a batch file to reboot the computer.
Seems Motorola is planning to support Linux because Linux is beginning to be used in the set top box market, where consumers demand low cost solutions, and having high bandwidth is a Good Thing (TM).
Does the Plain Old Telephone System have the installed equipment to combat telemarketers? I know that you can trace a call, but how fast can that be done? On the Internet, you have IP's that may or may not be spoofed, but unless you pay a premium for callerID, you don't have that luxury with telephone. If we could trace calls that were only 10 seconds long, then we would have the tools to back up any such laws. Without that, I'm afraid such laws would be unenforcable.
The question is not whether gathering statistics from voluntary submissions is morally right, the question is 'Are we on a slippery slope leading to gathering statistics from involuntary submissions?'
I agree with the majority of your post, but I think that your analogy (Would you expect intel to release it's manufacturing processes and schematics for the Pentium III core) is inacurate. nVidia would not be releasing schematics, they would be releasing registers, their names, their purpose, and how you access them. If Intel did not release such information about it's processors, Linux (and all the *BSD's) would be out of luck when optimizing for new processors. They could run in 386 mode, but could not take advantage of MMX, or any other new features. How would register names, purposes, and accessiblities give any other 3D manufacturer a leg up? They would still have to figure out how the registers create the expected effects, and that would merely to create a clone, not a superior chip.

thingamajig: TrackPoint (TM) They also make desktop keyboards with it, if you're into $150 keyboards.
