Does Oracle really need the money from Ask.com to keep including that dilapidated toolbar with every single java.com installer download and incremental java update?
'fraid I have to call bullshit on this one. I've had XP deactivate itself twice now from upgrading video drivers. Why upgrading my Radeon package (the drivers not the hardware) would deactivate my OS is beyond me, but there you have it.
Aren't you forgetting IIS? A lot of pointy-haired types won't run anything else in their shop because IE is everywhere. Web servers "guaranteed" to work with IE make a lot of cash for Microsoft.
That said, I think even the government is finally realizing that they can do it cheaper with open solutions. Where I'm at they recently converted a large-ish (15000 employee) payroll system over to Apache from IIS and the project management folks sure seem a lot happier these days.
My new Core-2-Duo system made me re-activate it when I upgraded my Radeon drivers from something like 6.8 to 6.9 (or whatever is the current rev) for my X1900XT.
That was a new one for me, and of course I had to call India because it wouldn't let me re-activate it over the internet. This was with a brand-new Newegg-purchased OEM XP Pro seat that I got just for this PC.
Some of the Maxtors are coming with a 5-year warranty, the Maxline series. I have one and it is an excellent drive. 300gb with a 16meg cache, SATA 150.
I found that updating Punkbuster manually has cleared up a lot of the random disconnect problems I was having. Download pbweb.exe and run it from the game's \pb directory.
you can turn off the external web interface on those things right? I guess that doesn't help if you're worried about crackers on your LAN but still, it may not be as bad as it sounds.
Neocron has lots of drugs, you don't get permanently addicted though, just lots of "drug haze" when they wear off, the more stuff you're on the more debilitating the haze effect.

Maybe this would be a good way to get one of my favorite Looking Glass games, Terra Nova, remade?
I feel much the same way when deprived of my Audi for a couple days.
Terra Nova: Strike Force Centauri by Looking Glass Software
Theaters silly!

Turok, with Portals.
Ok the Asteroids are kick-ass too.
Did you just call Lucent, a global company with a $14-billion market-cap, small?
9x out of 10, if you ask someone to name a "superhero" they are going to name one of DC or Marvel's characters.
Can't blame the companies for attempting to prevent the "dilution" of their brand recognition.
Yeah I thought this sounded somewhat familiar. I just wasn't sure how that case had turned out. Thanks for reminding me ;-)
Searchking lol.
Podcasted? lol.

Undocumented = bad though,
