The 386DX didn't have one either. Here's some history:
The difference between the 486DX and 486SX was that the SX didn't have a coprocessor. The difference between the 386DX and 386SX was that the SX had a narrower (slower) 16-bit external data path.
The upgrade to the 486SX was called the 487SX, which was actually a full 486DX in a different package. The 387 was just a floating-point processor.

I had a friend who bought a Compaq 386 in 1988 to use as a Netware print server for his business. I think it cost $15k, but of course it had 2 full-height 1 GB SCSI disks, 16 MB of RAM, 3 expensive parallel ports and ethernet with a built-in 10base2 transceiver. Also a 387 for some reason. Bought it from him for $10 ten years later.

Stop thinking in terms of left/right. What you're describing is "libertarianism", which is conservative economically, and liberal socially. "Conservatism" a la Republicans favours social controls. "Liberalism" a la western Europe favours economic controls and larger government.
Check out the political compass and start expanding on the left/right axis.
I'm not taking a side on this either way, but I'd like to say that all the carbon in fossil fuels (coal, oil) would stay in the ground if we didn't dig/pump it out. Hence we are affecting the balance of carbon in the atmosphere/biosphere.
You could declare temp on the stack anywhere within your if (SomeRareCondition()) block.
A more common reason you would use new/delete for a single object like that is if you wanted to control exactly when its constructor and destructor were called. It might also be too big to fit on the stack because, for example, it has huge arrays as members.
Ctrl-A/E/K/U works in Mozilla, except if, god forbid, your cursor is not in a text edit box like the location bar! Then Ctrl-A is Select All, Ctrl-E opens the HTML editor and Ctrl-U is View Source. It's inconsistent and pretty annoying. Then there's the middle button, which is Paste inside a text box, but "Go to whatever's in the clipboard" outside! Gaaah!
CIPE is not compatible with the 2.6 kernel they shipped.
Besides, isn't CIPE a piece of shit?

MacOS circa 1985 could only run one application at a time. Later versions (up to System 5?) could run "Desktop Accessories" or whatever the calculator, etc were called, over that single application. It wasn't until MultiFinder for System 6, and System 7, that you could run more than one full application.
Windows 95 had multimedia features, networking/file sharing, truetype fonts, multitasking, memory protection, support for colour displays and high resolution, OLE/COM and a whole shitload of other stuff you won't find in MacOS from 1984. Give me a break. You could install Windows 95 on a PC today and 95% of your Windows software would run fine. (although the system might crash a fair bit)
You're right that you couldn't do overlapping windows with Windows 1.0. I'm going to change my comparison to Windows 2.0, which was still years before Windows 95.
Windows 3.1 came out in 1992 IIRC. Windows 3.0 was 1990, and wasn't really all that different from 3.1. I think the biggest difference whas that it had no multimedia (Video/PCM audio) support. 3.0 was so much better than Windows 2.x and Windows/386.
"Windows 3.1" is probably the first version of Windows in most people's minds because it was the current version when computer sales really started to take off, and Windows software became useable because PCs were getting faster. It was also on the shelves for 3 years.
Mac circa 1985 was not a "real, modern GUI" any more than Windows 1.0 or GEOS. Try those old systems again and you'll agree they all suck equally. Windows 95 is more comparable to System 7 (MacOS 7), from 1991.
You can't claim that the French acted in their own interests during the American revolution any more than the US acted their own interests during WW1 and WW2. You sound like a Rupert Murdoch-bot.
You do not pay GST (the 7%) on groceries. Restaurant food, snacks, etc. yes, but not groceries. There are other things you won't get taxes on as well, so it's wrong to say *everything*.

I think his point was that not everyone in the middle east is an Arab.
At least, gnome-terminal 2.6.0 does here on my FC 2 box.

Clearly the solution is to never wash your clothes. The paranoid bums know what's really going on.
Redundant use of cat award!

Break could be useful if you want to send a VT100 BREAK over your serial port, assuming your terminal emulator supports that.
What if you need to use win-E or win-R or win-D?
Epcot better than Chicago? Maybe if you're a sheltered idiot.

The PC used the 8086, the XT used the slower 8088.
(Yes, the XT came out later).

To me, ping company.com should say "0% packet loss", not "25% packet loss, but here's our cool logo!!"
This is neat, but definitely something that should be kept in the confines of the machine room.

That was more of a Reichstag Fire.

100% of computers on the internet send packets to NETI@Home. Researchers are astonished.
5. Portability - whoops. The SNES is not portable at all, hence disqualified from this comparison.

AAC is not lossless. Lossless WAVs are about 1500kbps, and FLAC (compressed) average 750kbps.
