msft gave 150 million to protect it's fledgling CE market.. they were scared by NewtonOS and the purchase of NeXT.. and if either were able to be embedded.. and SJ took the cash, and used it to get the iMacs out..
in fact, Newton Inc. had a deal inked to supply every child in grades 1-6 in Texas with an eMate.. and every teacher with a 2000/2100.. and wire the classrooms for Newton.. worth 400mil+.. but Newton, Inc. was overextended.. and just prior to the msft 150mil (in non-controlling stock), SJ pulled in Newton, Inc.. and shortly after the msft deal was done, he disbanded Newton, Inc.. he could have used the Texas deal to pump new cash into Apple.. irregardless of Newton being John Scully's baby..
eh, and Gil Amelio had design plans for the iMacs years prior to SJ's releasing them.. Gil Amelio did't think that business would embrace "candy colored" computers.. but, they did..
and, no apple wasn't about to shut the doors before msft coughed the cash..
Herr Jobs, isn't much better than Gates.. he's just a lesser-bastard..
to go with the steaming fistful of bullshit served up in print, again..
"Slower processor speed.."

peecees need the extra freq to deal with shitty memory management.. and all the shitty india-borne crap win-coding from some dirt hovel in bangladesh.. "100,000 more lines of code before you get your bowl of rice, Patel.." --

-- this actually has to be explained to the win-cretin set.. the center of the universe does not revolve around redmond, washington..
yet, this is another arguement FOR middleware and that passive-aggressive shit branded ".net"..
so, i this is not positive press for the Mac or Apple..
this is a case of "they are still 5% trying to fit in OUR windows world, but as MSFT tells us, we are number one.. they are shit with pretty boxes that still don't work."..
so FUCK him, FUCK the WSJ and FUCK MICROSOFT..
and if your a x86 peecee user..
FUCK YOU, YOU COMPLETE IDIOT RAT-BASTARD.. DIG YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR RECTUM, WIPE THE SHIT FROM YOUR EYES AND FINALLY REALIZE THAT YOU'VE BEEN DUPED..
and you passive Mac users make me sick.. sip your high-priced lattes and passively accept this shit from your win-cretin "friends" and the popular press.. but, feel good about it all..
it's amazing, the total depth of his insanity..
the first time i read his site, i was stupified..
was this a "real" site, or a gag site.. then i did a search on his "patents".. and they are real.. i guess the patent office will hand patents out to basically anyone.. i still cannot believe that he is real..
i wonder which mental institution he is missing from..
and no, there isn't a "real" WinCE 3.0..
WinCE 3.0 (Cedar) was to be the embedded RTOS.. it never happened, and like yesterday's turd, was flushed away.. the "O.S." in the new CE units is actually 2.12 (Rapier).. but, they tagged it as 3.0 for marketing purposes.. to sucker the thick-walleted, yet weak-minded buyers..
this is fine if you intend to run Linux on it..
what microsoft and compaq has failed to tell anyone (wince buying suckers) about, is the addressable ram issue, and file size limits with WinCE 2.12(call it whatever you feel best)..
the most it can access is 16MB.. so even though you have 64, you can only use 16 as ram.. every CE unit i have used, you cannot move the memory slider past 16MB..
this is the major reason that most OEMs are not putting more than 32MB total.. CE can't use files in excess of 16MBs.. (maximum addressable in ram)..
this would make 64Megs, just more storage on the unit itself.. 16MB ram, and 48MB storage..
so, for WinCE, it's useless.. about as useless as WinCE is..
10.16 You grant to Sprint or any appointed subcontractors an irrevocable license to enter into or onto your Premises during normal business hours, Monday through Saturday, in order to install, repair, replace or remove Equipment. This license will survive termination or cancellation of this Agreement and will run with the land and inure to the parties' successors and assigns.
read it AGAIN.. "SHALL SURVIVE TERMINATINON OR CANCELLATION OF THIS AGREEMENT"..
even if the contract is terminated, by either party, the license for sprint or it's subcontractors to enter the domicile is valid..
and the little "run with the land" B.S. is that the contract is with the actual land that the domicile resides.. and, the license is extended to the next tenants of the domicile..
read the nifty "Enter your house" bit..
it's really scary.. "10.16 You grant to Sprint or any appointed subcontractors an irrevocable license to enter into or onto your Premises during normal business hours, Monday through Saturday, in order to install, repair, replace or remove Equipment. This license will survive termination or cancellation of this Agreement and will run with the land and inure to the parties' successors and assigns."
what this means is.. that your giving up your home to $print or any one of their subcontractors.. FOREVER..
re-read that last line..
in fact, anyone who buys your home after you sell it are now under the agreement.. "will run with the land".. not sure if this is legal in all states..
i'm never using $print again..

That should be the new ad campaign..
NT3 innovative?? they has to steal from OS/2.. not to mention bastardize HPFS..
MSFT's last innovative thing was... hmm.. how to screw the consumer and protect an illegal monopoly..
oh, and Dell sucks, DUDE..
