A professor's code is not necessarily the best code in the world. I had a professor who used gets() in the example code he gave us and I had to explain the difference between fork() and vfork() to him (well, not much of a difference anymore...) I had another professor whose code had a MAJOR memory leak in it. I politely emailed the professor about it and he replied to the entire class with the memorable phrase: memory leaks are not important anymore.
For DirecTV, it depends on where you are. For example, in the Ameritech region, you're using Ameritech for the line service (*spit*) and DirecTV for the ISP. I think:) Anyway, you get your static IP, but you're stuck at 768/128, which kinda sucks, especially since when it was using Rhythms, it was at 768/768:(
The latest versions do, although you need to start the program with a command line argument (-b? -p?). Then ^W can do both search and search/replace. I rather like it.

I hope other Operating Systems steal this idea and improve upon it.
In Mac OS X, either you get the Exploding Rectangle (if you open things with Finder) or the icon in the dock "bounces" until the application opens. (As an alternative, instead of the bouncing, you can have a flashing arrow appear under the icon instead.)
In the past year, I've spent $40 on SuSE (I love you, baby!!) and $5 on Windows ME. Being a student gives me the Microsoft crack-prices for their software. Office 2000 Premium (retail, lots of hundreds of $$$): $20. I'll be picking up Windows 2000 when I get my butt around to going to the bookstore. And Office for Mac OS X. Oh yes indeed.
It's not really that arbitrary if you take into account the primary purpose of both the phone and the restroom. The primary purpose of my work phone is to make work calls. Of course, I use it for personal reasons (especially since my group likes e-mail WAY too much for its own good), but I know that if I'm talking with my doctor and a call comes in about the order system going to hell, the doctor gets put on hold. The restroom, on the other hand, has a pretty specific primary purpose that has little to do with accomplishing work.
I run Outlook and Outlook Express and I've never had a problem with the "viruses". I attribute this to the fact that I do not open attachments and am generally wise in the way of the internet. As the virus issue is a non-issue for me and I really, really like the way OE works (and Outlook, to a smaller degree), I have no intention of switching to anything else.

I went to U2 for $26/per and Taj Mahal for $20/per.
As an employee of ConglomCo..err SBC.. I can assure you that it's SBC :)
That was Despair, Inc., who trademarked the frowny face :-( for greeting cards, calendars, etc. You can find some (humorous) details here.
