It isn't an adjective. In a lot of cases in English, you can use nouns as adjectives (ex: computer, computer industry), but only when there is no alternative.
Then again, someone will reply with "proper language is defined by the people." Just remember, you started it!
MS always gets portayed as evil for this goal. Sony, Nintendo--they all have this goal. I for one encourage MS, because, in this field, they have the best chance of actually doing it and doing it well. I mean, Nintendo on a PC? Yeah...
I made two separate but valid points: 1. Outlook is in every edition. 2. The lightest weight retail version (key word retial) still includes the four afformentioned products.
I was also pissed that they didn't include Outlook in the comparison. Anyone who's worked with Outlook 2003 will know what I mean. It's by far the biggest upgrade to Office since 97. I can't stand Outlook 2002, no less 2000! To say it's a fair comparison, then leave a competitor's strongest asset, is totally bogus. And, just in case you're wondering, no you can't buy Office without Outlook. The lightest weight version (retail) still has Word, Excel, Powerpoint, and Outlook. proof
That must be a group policy that your sys admin has set up, because that is not default behaivor (at least not in XP...it's been a while since 2000, but I'm 98% sure there as well).
No, you're speaking of shares. We're talking about file systems. In Windows, yes, when you create a share, everyone, by default is given full control of it. All that means is that you can do whatever you want in that folder, through the network, only if you have permission from the file system. The reason the option exists at all is maybe there's files you want changed only locally, but read remotely (hint: create a new group, but it's your choice), or you don't want people to know that a share exists at all.
NTFS is not that way at all. Initial permissions are based on basically two things: 1. If you own the file, you get full control. 2. The rest of the permissions are *inherited* from their parent, assuming the parent is set up to propogate it's permissions. If you don't want to give everyone permissions to files in a certain folder, you have that folder set not to allow propogation.
The fact is that linux (well, more properly, the associated file systems) are very limited in their permissions. It is often desirable, in a proper setup, to have the right people get permissions automatically, without having to give it to them! NTFS has advanced features that do a good job of staying out of the way until you need them.
I was wondering the same thing. It's not against the DMCA, at least, to copy something that's encrypted, right? It may be against copyright law, but in no way if you copy a DVD bit for bit then play the copy back are you circumventing any copy protection.
All headlines distort facts...it's a fact of life. They're the editor's way of getting across what the want to. Live with it, and read the article to get all the facts.
That's the first thing I thought of when I saw this story. Then I realized that the two were linked. I've had the beer tie (I think it's beer...) as well as an umarked one for years now.:)
Big ISPs, like Yahoo and MSN.:) Get AOL on board and you've won.

You can actually change that setting to search at a number of different search engines, one of which is google, but because of mixed systems between the IE search and the autosearch and the system search, it's hard to find.
Tilde: ~ (just the symbol) Accent: e or o (what's above those)
However, en espanol:
Tilde: any mark that goes above a letter, including both of the above. Think of any accent mark. As a reference, n and n are completely different letters of the alphabet, so that isn't often referred to as a tilde.
Acento: The stressed syllable or the stressing of a syllable. Think of a musical accent. Not a mark of any kind.
Yay for anal Spanish teachers that just took a linguistics class!:)

No it wasn't. Grammar is a noun.

That's a suprisingly good way to find free fonts, assuming you know the file name.
It was modded down and then back up again.
