I tink the problem that linux faces, is no matter how user frendly the GUI gets the command line is sill needed for many tasks. I couldnt imaging dropping into a command box on 2k just to start word, I may browse to the installed directory and start it there, bu i woudlnt type \progra~1\microsof~2\office\winword.exe unless the os was totally crashed.
as soon as linux has a GUI that was able to run any app easly then there would be more linux web surfers.
I leave my cable box on 24/7, usally on a info channel:) does that mean the cable company would make more "how to use this service" channels if they were tracking me?
I dont think so, MS will probably only log about what is on your tv for about 30 min after the channel has changed:)
Anything that uses the music city protocol has the download from multiple available sources at the same time; if your downloading from the web then downloads managers like getright ect also are available to do a similar task.
I beleve M$ shouldnt force people to upgrade but allow direct x and alike to install on win 95 boxes after sereral warning on the line of, "installing this may cause system unstability, microsoft dose not support Windows 95, applying this update may leave your computer unusable"
Hang on aint that what they say now for some products:)
I beleve win 95 should have support given untill ether the entire 9x range is dropted or if the time were Microsoft is broken up ( so unlikely ), I just wonder if there is a way to Force a upgrad of direct x?
These thing could be graet for storage, IF you run out just tell them to grow some more and use them to store your data, the only problem would be security:)
Microsoft would never do a trick like that!
Like they developed IE from scratch didn't they!:)
They didn't license Mosaic with a deal to give 45% of all profits made from it, and then give it away for free.
Ooops I forgot that this is Microsoft I'm talking about.;)

As I can remember, pal machines can read NTSC videos so it's only the NTSC people who are restriced with there videos, unlike DVD's were everyone is restricted.
so what you are sugetsing is to use all your bandwidth up to stop them following your actions.
Sounds like youur willing to chop off your legs so they cannot make you go for a run:P
I have in the past let other students look at my code.
to stop them using it directly most of my varables are incorrect in one or other way, or I put syntax errors into the code, AND allwasy put my name in multiple times, I still cannot forget when the out come to 4+5 = "My name" as the final solution, and they missed to check the code.
Cheets may prosper in the short time But they are cheeting themselfs in the future
I like it how if the US legal system says something is ilegal,Then the rest of the world gets affected. If something is stopted like this or napster then they are gone as no-one else would challange the US over there laws.
Am I beeing correct in this line of thaught?
