Perhaps it's just me, but I believe he was referring to Mac OS X, although I would agree with him either way.
As for you fishexe, (sorry if this turns into a flame here, not intended) you seem to possess quite a bitterness towards anything not X, or at least anything Mac...sorry, thats just what I see. I will go as far to say that they are both excellent operating systems, even though I do not use Mac OS as much as my Linux box, I don't know, perhaps that will change with the advent of Mac OS X...let's just hope X Windows can be integrated into it.
Ok. First, I don't think the movie was as bad as many say it is. But I can say many of it was laughable.
It's year 3000. A full intact flight simulator (working as well) haha. Harrier fighters haha.
From what I have heard the book was actually good, but if it has these same elements in it, I would definitely disagree.
It seemed like what a young elementary school student often writes:stories composed of a lot of elements, that make sense or not, *seem* to be cool. For example a student saying something like "and he had a laser gun and he had a huge box of laser grenades because he was cool, 3 laser tanks, a starship, could cloak invisible, bullets can't hurt him", etc... I think you know what I mean, at least I hope so.
Them managing to find all of these items from almost a 1000 years ago and still intact, was deeply amazing. And the gold being formed into gold bars and that whole deal? "we could not expect you to take them in any lower condition" or whatever he said haha.a..h..a.hmwuhauha..amujwuha najnajdnfa...hahamwuahuhaa.mmahahaa..ahhhahah..... ....anyway, i was really hoping this movie would be good, so I kept trying to convince myself throughout the movie "it will get better", "it's just beginning to pick up", "ok, so that doesn't make sense at all, simple mistake", but all was not so. They found a flight simulator intact, yeah right, but even so, how long did it take those dumb morons (literally) to learn how to fly all of those magically intact harriers?was it 8 days or 9 days? truly amazing, what innovation, man, now people go to flight school for several months-years, man, we need those entrepreneurs
the dialogue was also all so amazing, in a way it worked ok, to show sinister evil...but it just started to get annoying. so the process it ended up going through for me: 1. stupid, annoying dialogue 2. ok dialogue, it showed the evil in a way 3. annoying, stupid dialogue
I recommend seeing the movie actually, it was incredibly funny. Update: apparently its not supposed to be a comedy, nevermind.
This movie taught me so much, for example, I never knew the nukes we currently possess could literally blow up a full planet. Amazing.
So the best part of the movie you ask? The comedy.
So the worst part of the movie you ask? It wasn't a comedy.
No, I think many may agree with me, the IE does not have as much value as you say...especially over the 2 portions. Remember:AOL is out of the CONTRACT or whatever they had with Microsoft (i dont know what it was, doesnt matter anyway), and now the world's largest ISP's browser (as well as the worst) will be Netscape...this brings usage of IE down dramatically. Damn, I imagine we all expected the overwhelming user response to this, this will EASILY surpass the previous records, and it goes to Emmett, very smooth...
The actual break up will not happen until 2002, at this point Microsoft has 4 months to release a break up plan.
In regards to how the company will be ran, I am clueless, all I know is that Bill Gates will most likely (unless something else happens along the path) be a much richer man (having stock in 2 companies can do so).
I don't think there is much more to it, we will have to wait 4 months [again] and see what the plan will be.

Earthlink-Mindspring is not America's Largest ISP.
I know what Netscape 6 is based on and why its not called Netscape 5, but how is that relevent to my comment?
