Did the same thing at a company picnic years ago.... My wad of paper went further than any plane and people cried foul. I didn't fight the semantics, didn't really care that I was DQ'd, I knew my "airplane" went further than anyone's and that was good enough.
Likewise, but I also sync calendar using Lightning for Thunderbird with "Google Contacts" add-on and sync contacts (with gmai set up for this purpose) using "Provider for Google Calendar" add-on. On the Blackberry, like you, it is Google sync which syncs both the calendar and contacts.
Works well and glad I could finally ditch Outlook at work. We don't use Exchange.
We used VSS for a long time but switched to SVN after reading numerous accounts that that VSS would eventually croak, and because we needed multiple developers working on the same source. After all the developers (~16 very active users, 20+ projects) were over the learning curve of SVN, there's not one that would go back to VSS. I can honestly say there is nothing I know of that we need that SVN doesn't do for us. We use TortioseSVN for the Windows guys, and the server-side guys (Linux/Unix) use command-line SVN. We have no need to branch local copies. We very rarely have to manually resolve conflicts. I fail to see what GIT would do for us.
Perhaps SVN sucks for kernel-guys. But for what we do, SVN fits the bill perfectly... Central repository, easy to get up-to-date, easy to commit, easy to update, easy to review changes, easy to review history....
They're extinct because of us, but probably not because our ancestors murdered them all, in character for H. Sapiens though that would certainly be.... after all, our species does enjoy killing.
Lemme guess: You want them revived so we can provide them reparations? Go eat more garden-burgers.
strange. I did what you did for point 1 using ms usb trackball explorer, default xp-pro drivers. I wheel-clicked and scrolled up and down and left and right, fast and slow... cpu for ff shows mostly at 0 (idle at 99) when scrolling at readable rates. When scrolling faster, I saw a peak of 20-30... but this is scrolling far beyond readable rates. This was with "update speed" set at normal in task-manager. Same behavor in IE.
Using ff 1.0.3, old (ti4200) nvidia card, latest drivers. I'd classify my system as slow: 1100 mhz athlon, nForce2 chipset. Perhaps you have issues with your vidcard or mouse drivers.
Note: Tried this just now in a athlon64 3500 (939) nForce4 m/b, with N6200GE nvidia vidcard, also latest drivers, also ff 1.0.3, and saw same results. Same thing in IE there, too.
uh.. yer not supposed to tell people that the weather is actually good here.... It's taken generations of FUD to convince the rest of the world that the weather here sucks. Hand over your renounce your Citizenship at once!
I lived in Hillsboro OR at the time, I was 11. That Sunday morning rocked, cuz I didn't have to go to church. We grabbed lawn chairs and sat on our roof and watched the _enormous_ ash cloud. The next morning, we had about 1/4-1/2 inch of ash on the streets. My friend came over with his Honda CR-80 with an innertube and a rope... and we pulled each other up and down the streets, like it was snow. It was a, uh, blast.
(then we cleaned folks' driveways for $5 a piece... and then we headed to the arcade and spent every penny)

SVN for us is the right tool for the job.

Basically says (i think), that one possible explanation is c is not constant.

fwiw:
winamp 5 at this moment, minimized (no support for "modern skins") is using 1,432K of memory.
wmplayer, playing the same song, in compact mode, minimized, is at 12,788K.
and yes, smartasses, it sounds wierd with the same song playing twice... way out of phase.
