And the important thing to note in that is, if the settlement proposed by MS is rejected, then they (MS) will claim that those who rejected it don't care about the children.
Ahh, someone let the idiots loose on Slashdot again...
In the April 15, 1993 issue of the Washington Post, John Fredrick, an atmospheric physicist from U. Chicago, was quoted as saying, in reference to UV light, that,
"The amount of increase that the theory says we could be getting from ozone depletion is smaller that the error of our best measuring instraments.
If an increase of 20 percent were going to be so damaging, there should be no life in Florida..."
To all the people commenting about my resume, that it doesn't have enough flash, that it needs to be done by a professional, etc.
It was. When I was laid off from my last job, the company was nice enough to pay for a two day "how to find a job seminar".
I took in my resume, and they modified it to this. When I commented that it wasn't flashy enough, they said that flash was for graphic artists; with computer people, you have to look professional.
And, as a side note, most of the headhunters I've worked with thought it was a good solid resume.
Tell me about it. The last commercial I really paid attention to, was because of whatever it was they were advertising. I can't tell you what they advertised.
Only if, as the article says, the states find the US Govt's solution unacceptable.
Since we don't know what the US Govt and MS have settled on, we don't know how equitable it is. Since MS, in the past, has rejected anything that prevents them from bundling anything they want, well... We'll just have to wait and see.
The three person compliance panel concept is interesting. Of course, it depends on who is on it.
I.e., the police want, for whatever reason, to search you, your stuff, your car. However, the judge they go to doesn't give them a warrent. So they, in response, convince your employer to search you.
In that case, whatever judge this matter is brought before, will likely throw it out; if he doesn't, it will almost certainly be thrown out on appeal. And you would probably be able to take action against the police and your employer.
But for "normal" employer searchs, not much you can do.

I mean, that second 'A' stands America, so what's their basis here?
Or is this the same kind of thing that got Dmitry?
Makes me wish I was a developer for this.*

These look really sweet.

How is it once in a lifetime?
The Leonid meteor occurs every 33 years, and take place over several years.
Europe, for instance, is supposed to have the best view next year.

I think he would do better as the Lost Prince of Atlantis, water wings and all... :)
Last time I checked with UPS, over half the people there said that lower parts of Canada didn't count as a foreign country.
Wonder when that changed...
In this case, K = 1024.
64*1024 = 65536.
And last I checked, that was 16-bit.
Or have I been trolled again???
Wait, you're telling us that we should use Windows, and we're the ones who are brainwashed?
It's a fair cop.
In the April 15, 1993 issue of the Washington Post, John Fredrick, an atmospheric physicist from U. Chicago, was quoted as saying, in reference to UV light, that,
The difference between the UV level in some parts of Florida and other parts of the US is as much as 20%.
So, if people in Montana, for example, were worried about UV, they could look at Florida and realize that it isn't that bad.
Well, except for Epcot.
*sigh*
The increase of UV radition getting to the earth due to the depletion of ozone is smaller than the error factor of the best detection instraments.
And, even if it weren't, even changes as high as 20% aren't abnormal in nature. Otherwise, there wouldn't be life in Florida...

Wait, I've got two computers!
Tell me about it. The last commercial I really paid attention to, was because of whatever it was they were advertising. I can't tell you what they advertised.
But I do know it had Alice Cooper in it.
Yep. And if enough of them pull out, like South Carolina did, then it won't matter what the rest decide.
I'm still convinced that MS got the SC Attorney General to pull out by promising him a huge campaign contribution for his upcoming run for Governor.
Nah... RMS would be much better than Katz...

Nasdaq doesn't delist until you go under $1.
And even then, they aren't delisting anyone until January, due to the events of 9/11.

Most likely, an 'expert' appraised it, and whoever holds it, insured it for that amount or more.
My best guess.

Except in the case of airlines, their policy are posted, and for a valid safety reason.
You don't have to fly. I don't. But that's because heights scare me; I'm the stereotypical white-knuckle flier.
If I had to fly, I would put up with whatever searches were called for, as I don't view them as unreasonable.

Only if they are de facto acting for the police.
I.e., the police want, for whatever reason, to search you, your stuff, your car. However, the judge they go to doesn't give them a warrent. So they, in response, convince your employer to search you.
In that case, whatever judge this matter is brought before, will likely throw it out; if he doesn't, it will almost certainly be thrown out on appeal. And you would probably be able to take action against the police and your employer.
