TBPH the way IE does bookmarking is retarded. It prevents some non-alphanumeric characters in the title (most annoyingly : and / ) and isn't a cross-platform solution.
A simple HTML compatible file is the _right_way_ as it can be loaded and used by any browser.
They have got Adi Shamir's TWINKLE _concept_ confused with a finished product. NTK took the piss out of this on Friday.
This is a classic demonstration of how poor The Times has become. The paper as a whole and especially it's computer suppliment has been very factually challenged ever since Rupert Murdoch took over. He has attempted to make up for crappy quality with price cuts (20p for the paper some days [30cents]) and has so far failed.
The Times is the worse broadsheet paper in the UK and the sooner American's realise this (no-flamage intended), the sooner we won't have joke stories like this on/.
Why not give anybody with an account the ability to mark troll/spam. You then set your troll-o-meter to the minimum number of people who have to label a comment as troll before it dissapears for you. Would work for me.
Basically it comes down the fact that however unlikely the universe _seems_, the existence of god is even less likely. The universe is a much easier thing to create than a omnipresent, omnipotent (sp?) fully powerful being.
> 1) Most people get 20x as much stuff done when there is a reason behind it - i.e., need to put food on the table etc.
Quality not quantity. Linux gets quantity from the no. of ppl working on it.

No, folks writing stuff because they want to, in a time scale to match the problem. And without such a thing as a marketing department. This is the ideal environment for good code and software.
And do try to investigate things, otherwise you sound like a 5 year old kid saying "It doesn't mention the holocaust in the children's books I read. It can't have happened!"
Your writing 'style' obviously shows that you have yet to learn to think for yourself. He is out of touch and past his prime. The article shows that he has issues with his life as much as it shows anything about Linux.

Jesus! is the most accurate word I can think of to describe this.
Who says that only M$ are trying to own the internet?

Playing mp3s, cds and quake is all I want mine for.
Midi? Give me a break.
Are there any games that use 3D sound out on Linux?
Right, I'm off to tell Diamond (MX300) why they lost another customer...
Sounds like a poor mans excuse to write a book and make money to me.
