Let me know when this works with Pine or GMail. OTOH, my blackberry seems to support self destructing text messages, or maybe it just looses them randomly.
For a time, Apple will collect those who have money and favor dead-easy implementation. But eventually they too will succumb to the ineluctable realities of *nix
Mac OS X Leopard is Unix, so either way, people will "succumb to the ineluctable realities of *nix"
I'm so glad I don't use Windows much, and hope I stay that way once 2010 arrives. i struggled to imagine people wanting to use Vista, now I'm struggling to imagine people wanting this even more. I bet some people will approve of it though.
I still, by habit, use command lines in a DOS window to do things that Windows can do via the GUI.
I do it because all too often, Explorer decides that it going to go slow. So slow that I can type faster when wanting to copy or move a file, or add a directory to a ZIP archive.
and it's far more profitable to target the least protected and most accessible domiciles
WIndows may be the most accessible, but I doubt that it's the least protected. Surely a higher percentage of Windows users have antivirus running than users of other operating systems?
I primarily use a Mac, and I have ClamXav installed. Mostly out of curiosity. I run it occasionally, but it has never found any viruses. I won't hold my breath.
So you can swap to a second fully charged batter after the first one runs flat. This is useful during an 8 hour flight where there are no power outlets available.
I traveled from the UK to the US last week, and I had a couple of ointments and two laptops with me. They didn't even want me to take the computers out of my backpack. On one of the four flights I was on last month, I was asked if I was carrying a laptop.
Seriously, this does point out a drawback with using online applications. You are trusting your data to a foreign entity that may not even reside in the country.
If you required this article to point that out to you, hand over your geek passport now.

There's still no 64-bit version yet!
I can program in COBOL and should be on a plane to California in the next two weeks...
AppleWorkspredates MS Office by 5 years.

Then in the end they will lose as they're doing it almost as good as the others, but for a far greater price, and many years too late.

I was thinking more along the lines of:
/etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get remove msie7
cat "http://3rdparty.windowsupdate.com" >>
apt-get install firefox
apt-get install openoffice
If they're going to go to the bother of making it modular, they'd make life a lot easier for many geeks if they let users choose their "modules".

I think "panic" is a bit of an over-reaction. I use a multicore CPU. I write software that runs on it. I'm not panicking.
If you can fit more inside a MacBook Air than Apple claims, you're doing *really* well.

Really? What country is that in?

Looks like you just boggled your own mind with point C.
They do modern OSes? I thought Vista was merely a re-arrangement of kernel drivers and priviledges with a new GUI on what is mostly still Windows XP.
Damn, now I'm going to spend the night reading Wikipedia again! And I was just about to go to bed.
That sounds like a fun project :-)
Isn't it O2?
I evaluated Git and Bazaar, and ended up going with Bazaar for that reason - it works on Windows. It also works on Mac, Linux and Solaris.
Just like the OS market... look how Windows' price has risen and how much of an improvement Vista is over XP.
the Linux kid will also drop a "load in his shorts"
No, he will dump a core in his shorts.
