Yeah, I came across that one myself one time, and, uh.. huh? If it just refuses anything you answer how can you submit the form?
Good point - all it took was one idiot giving all mail users shell access, turning on telnet and another idiot using "coffee" as a password and I had to rebuild a hacked box.
And of course, Mac OS X and Mac OS X Server 10.3.7 contain php 4.3.2...
Here: http://www.entropy.ch/software/macosx/php/ , are usually uptodate and easy installers for PHP on OS X; he's at 4.3.9 still but I trust the newer one will be up soon.
They're really fire&forget installers, great for people like me:-)
"To Say Nothing of the Dog" (1999) is FAR from hard sci-fi, I was quite dissapointed with it and put it back on the (my - I had ordered it online) shelf after the first 50 pages or so.
But you are right in that the vast majority rates as the good-old-days sci-fi. Children's bedtime stories (even if they are good) on the Hugo list! What happened???

Update: 10/15 06:27 GMT by Z : As some readers have pointed out, if history serves you can look forward to reading about this again in 2007.
:-)
2007?
Knowing Slashdot, we can read about it again tomorrow!
We should be asking YOU then :-) How long do you think it will take for the OS X version to appear?
If no insider info, any guesses?
What about Linux?
I really don't want to buy a PC just to play CivIV (damn close, but not quite..)
Any thoughts on hardware needs for decent performance (not like a 2 minute wait for your turn, each turn) are welcome too :-)
There is hope!
.. there's a thought)
(I'm still going to lock the world away for a month right after I get IV. Hmm.. I.V.
Thanks! That gave me a good insight into a programming issue i was having, not knowing which approach to take..
Toaster it is.

How about one-liners :-)
Say you spend 4 months finishing this just too great one-line image editing program in perl, and then discover you get paid by the line..
