although he was found guilty at a second trial because he and his co-pilot destroyed a tape made during the flight, not for the actual deaths they caused!
The "Windows" moniker will disapear soon anyway... (According to this anyway (and I think it makes sense)
I quote (well...I cut n paste)..
"Some expect the name Windows will be dropped completely. The antitrust agreement with the Bush DoJ specifically states "Microsoft Windows" throughout. By maintaining incompatibility (already planned due to design considerations), making it look different and calling it something else, Microsoft can free itself from antitrust oversight. "It's not Windows, it's a different product - the agreement doesn't apply."
Opera seems to be taking this market a little more seriously....
The latest beta (version 7) has the ability to render the screen as if viewed on a small screen (press shift-F11 to toggle the view)... This makes testing instantly easier.
I just love the opera browser (mouse gestures, tabbed browsing..etc) and have gladly payed for the privilage since opera 5, but thats just my choice..isn't that what this is about.
There is no way that IE has the market tied down at the moment because they don't control the platform that it sits on. This will be a much better test of browser preference than the artificial desktop browser choice, because MS don't control the platform (symbian platform that is)
It was just a little sarcasm... forgive me, but I didn't really want to see any screenies. I don't even have any windows managers loaded on any of my boxes..
using the DMCA surley can't work as a defence. Because you are circumventing protection...they can outlaw its use with the DMCA and you are right back in that loop all over again...
All over the world, stories like this are creeping out. Here in the UK, although not censorship, the RIP bill certainly impinges on your privacy. In Southern Australia, it appear to be actual censorship....
Why oh why is this happening. Is it the current generation in power at the moment. They grew up before the computer revolution and are now faced with a BIG unknown as regards the internet etc etc... or is it something else...
time to get thinking...what can you do to help avoid this sort of thing, who can you annoy, who is your govenmental representative...
I think this is not the last of this sort of thing we will hear about
It gives the pedellers of hardware yet another option when they design a piece of kit...and if it is open(ish), they can take whatever they like and change it to do whatever they please without a hefty upfront cost.A great reason to start playing
It's also a bonus that it happens to play nicely with the penguin...
Tell no one what you have done to the _OPEN_standard and whine when someone points this out.
Threaten law, use 'diffusing' language...repeat ad infinatum.
I mean...come on... how is it possible to get away with this again and again and again.
Kerberos was OPEN, how can they close it. This is surley the whole point. Any way, Microsoft PROMISED to document the changes they made. I think that because of the pressure to do so, they complied, but even crippled their promise.

So this may soon go away anyway...
Why does it alway work out this way?
that was funny... damn where are those moderator points when you need them

Take _Open_ Standard (Kerberos)
"Extend" it (read cripple)
