Except oil is from rocks not dinosaurs. It's just floating up from below and getting trapped at various depths. Not only is it not nearly as limited as previously thought, but if we run low we could go get an asteroid full of carbon and make more...
"How do you rationalize the money spent on MS licensing?"
You already spent it. Are you going to throw good money after bad? Are you going to keep using the road you always used even though you've read the reports about how dangerous the bridge over the river is?
So we can be certain that this is a well-designed, carefully debugged and reviewed backdoor. It doesn't seem to have been well-documented outside of Microsoft.
There is no automated solution to the "Categorization" problem. People still have to manually assign data to library catalogs, Yahoo categories, search engines. You just have to create folders and subfolders for your needs.
I also use the Netscape browser's Edit:Edit Bookmarks to create folders as needed. When I save a bookmark I always click on Bookmarks:File Bookmark to drop it in the appropriate folder (or my "INBOX" for later categorization).
My top level folders right now are:
Computing Linux News (Client 1) (Client 2) (Client 3) Personal Toolbar Manufacturing Printing My Stuff
The "News" folder has a lot of general news links and these subfolders:
Linux Trade Web Sites Geek WebLog
That's a simple folder. My "Computing" and "Linux" folders have subfolders four levels deep.
The Project Management Software FAQ does not yet list any confirmed Linux products. R-T-R has something for Linux, but I haven't seen anything other than what's on their web page.
Wireless: PCMCIA wireless cards would be convenient. USB wireless is OK when there's room for assorted boxes near the I-Opener.
IrDA: There are IR devices for serial ports, although I don't know if there are any IrDA ones. A USB serial port device, or connecting to the unused serial port, would give you some IR abilities.
X-10 Firecracker: Just need a serial port, and that can be done through PCMCIA, USB, or parallel port...or even through the modem port with the right matching modem.
Remote keyboard: Anyone making a wireless keyboard which connects to a standard keyboard port? I haven't been shopping, so don't know.
Pictures of the motherboard do show what looks like a PCMCIA area, without connectors and with empty chip areas nearby. But even if the real estate is still available to implement PCMCIA, the hard part would be modification of the case. Would PCMCIA add much which USB can't do?
Right. The OEM/Developer version should have sockets for often-altered things such as CPU and RAM. Could even sell them unpopulated for OEMs. A hard drive bay is an obvious need.
The USB port provided a lot of expansion options. Now, should they implement the PCMCIA port, or does USB provide enough options? (Pictures on web sites show what looks like a PCMCIA area without its chips and socket installed) PCMCIA would require case alterations, a difficult activity.

It's not so much what you have as how you use it.
Just charge up your cellphone also...
You just needed to aim a carbon arc spotlight at each of your cars indoors...
But you might remember recent news about an alcohol fuel cell for portable devices.
It's not very obvious from their feature-oriented web site, but Apropos uses Linux. See how LinuxPOS or Simple Simon meet your needs.

Excuse me, but how do you know there are no backdoors in Win2000/IIS2000? We do know that a congressman said that "high level deal-making on access to encrypted data had taken place between the NSA and IBM and Microsoft".
Excuse me, but how do you know the backdoor is not in Win2000? Or how many there are?

The Computer Museum's Computer History Timeline has a lot more detail.
Of course, for Internet history, there's Hobbes' Internet Timeline, and of course Charles Spurgeon's Ethernet Web Site (not focused on the Internet, but a major bit of networking history).

As soon as the Python-to-Dia interface is working, it will be possible to make Dia create such diagrams.

Interesting analysis. And the central servers which had to be secure were running NT...
