Even better AOL for OS/2! Actually if AOL was smart they should buy OS/2 from IBM and use that as their own OS, looks similar to Windows, feels similar, but quicker and more stable. I bet they could get even cheaper than they could've gotten BeOS.
The HPs have an equation writer where you can write an equation exactly like on paper. It's slow though. RPN is much faster, but can be confusing to a newbie.
It won't ban it from the AP tests. The HP 48 line has a PC Speaker and it's allowed on the tests. I've managed to get the HP 48 to play everything from Frosty to the Ukraining Bell Carol. You just have to turn the speaker off in the tests.
They did this on the AP exams too. On the TIs just pulling out the batteries would clear the memory, so they thought pulling out the batteries would clear the HP 48G's memory. Fortunetly the thing can store it's memory for 3 minutes w/o batteries. So all my wonder stuff was safe. It would take some time reloading Zelda on the darn thing.
Notice how he leaves out OS/2. That's 'cause it has no bugs! It is wonderfull and marvelous. He also leaves out BeOS, and DOS! How can anyone leave out DOS! It was the best thing Digital Research got stollen from them. Seriously this is a piece of trash. I may not like Linux the best myself, but it is definately not the worst OS of all time. Windows 3.x with MS Bob as the shell is. Maybe all the bugs he counted were in the S3 Savage 4 X-Server. I couldn't even exit X-Windows without that thing locking up.
From the brief: "Thus, as one Napster user posted on the Napster website: "We all know it's illegal. We just don't think it's wrong." Frackman Decl., Ex. K, at p. 8. This view subverts the very purpose of copyright law, to the long term detriment of the public." What total BS! What this shows is thar the RIAA is subverting "the very purpose fo copyright law, to the long term detriment of the public." (Madison, US Constitution, Article 1, Section 8)They've be doing this for years by pressuring Congress to extend the length of copyright to 95 years for works for hire, and life + 75 years for other works. The whole purpose of copyright is "To promote the Progress of Science and useful Art... for limited Times". That is some misinterpretation of the Constitution. 95 years is not a limited time, it is longer than the normal human lifespan. How in hell will this promote the progress of music if the person/corporation can milk that one work for 95 years, they'll be dead before they have any 'motivation' to do anymore works. If this isn't a perversion of copyright then I don't know what is. No wonder that Napster user feels that they are doing no wrong. Secondly, Napster doesn't facilitate stealling of the Intellectual Property. What politicians and MS do is stealling IP, they take other peoples ideas and claim them as their own. Copying an MP3 isn't stealing, it's copying. One is not claiming to have created the darn thing. IP can only really be copied, thus any scarcity is artifical. Ideas are free and pleantiful, music has always been that way. Well until now that is (if the RIAA gets its way), it's the media and the cost of the performance that is (well should be)charged for. The music (the idea) is free, I actually don't need anytype of device but myself to hear a song. You see I can hear the song in my head, or sing it myself. Now that the media cost is gone, the performance cost is all that's left. That can be handled by well paying to see the artist perform. MP3s are merely ideas, totaly medialess, just like the ones in everyones (well maybe not)head.
He did leave. Brian Reynolds, Tim Train and others left Firaxis to create Big Huge Games. Reynolds was the designer for Colonization, CivII, and Alpha Centauri. He was supposed to be the designer for CivIII, then he left. It fell to Tim Train and then he left. So it's back in Sid Meier's hands. Look for it sometime next year. Also look out for Sid Meier's Dinosaurs sometime later this year or early next year.

It ran on my friend's 486 DX2 66, sure it took like 10 minutes per turn in the later years but it was playable.
