You could boot the kernel with init=bash and compile bash against a static (and non GNU) libc and have a usable system, however. Is that what you meant?
2) A 1% in connection speed means nothing. IE is much faster at rendering than Netscape (this may be because it's only targeted at one platform and doesn't have layers of shit to go through). Also, ever try hilighting something in a large 1MB + html page and right-clicking on it in Netscape 6? pause..pause..pause..
3) Actually, IE takes down Explorer with it, not Windows. Just force-quit Explorer (Ctrl-Alt-Del and End Task). In NT you'll have to reload it with File|Run in the Task Manager.
My anecdotal evidence for stability is just as meaningless as yours, but IMO you're full of shit. Any application will crash when your system is low on memory. Netscape will crash or hog memory if you feed it "badly formated pages" or "overly complex pages" (boo hoo). That means Netscape is not robust and IE is. Netscape loses the stability point.
4) Why not just open your favorites folder in an explorer window (%userprofile%\Favorites)? Or click on the Favorites button in IE? If you can manage files on your hard drive, you can manage bookmarks.
5) IE is also available for MacOS, MacOS X (Carbon), Solaris and HPUX. I think it would be great if Linux and FreeBSD were supported. I don't care about OS/2, Be, HURD and all that other shit.
6) IE's scripting is really broken (read SecurityFocus and search for Guninski). Netscape, as I said before, is not robust (buffer overflow in the JPEG decoder a few months ago).
IMO, Microsoft doesn't know anything about security, but Netscape doesn't know anything about writing good code.
You might hear a click for the first frame (which will no doubt be incomplete) but subsequent frames will sound fine. Each frame can even have its own bitrate (that's how VBR works).
IE for MacOS, unlike IE for Solaris/HPUX, does not run an API emulation layer. It's the only version of IE that beats Mozilla at ECMA/HTML4/CSS1 compliance.
A) I think a ping falls under the category of 'background traffic', i.e. you should expect to be pinged when you're on the internet, and you take on the responsibility of paying for it in (miniscule) bandwidth.

You didn't have to sneak anything on to a machine if you need it. Ask your boss to contact IT. If they're preventing his employees from getting work done, he'll tell his boss. And so on.
If you still don't get WinNT 4, you didn't need it in the first place.
You must be one of those "geeks" that takes their project personally. It's only a fucking job.
The bitstream has to be decrypted before it hits the DAC that produces the analog signal that drives the speaker cone. Sure, stuff could be hidden in bits that get stripped out when the bitsteam is converted to analog, but you could do that just as easily with:
y = x & 0xfffc;/* for example */
(or, for the C-illiterate, preserve 14 bits and set the other two to 0s)
Of course, the manufacturer COULD make a "combination" descryptor and DAC chip, but since we're still talking about two discrete operations here, the DAC part of the process could be eliminated.
This is a good article, but it doesn't mention the i815. True, it's still "forcefully bundled" like the 810 with slow integrated video and 1993-era quality sound, but it's a usable chipset (AGP4x, ATA100, 133MHz FSB, SDRAM) with no stability issues to date.
Slashdot Mirror
Media players (+ codecs), games, versions of directx all have very short release cycles.
Who is going to rush out to support SSE2 instructions for a chip that isn't likely to sell very well?
Microsoft, GNU and Borland will. They make the compilers.
Also, to use SSE2 and the P4 to it's potential, you have to upgrade EVER SINGLE APP on your PC.
Are you saying that "EVERY SINGLE APP" on your PC uses FPU instructions? I don't think so.
So get XFree86 for Win32.

How is this any different than VA Linux?
The kernel does not use libc. That's insane.

The "terrestrial connection" between Brookvale and Alexandria looks huge on the map but is listed as 31 km.
I like the poetic description on that page: "...performs on desks crowded."
MPEG streams do not have a header.

Anyway, this is getting OT
That will restart the big mp3 file everytime you request it. The tail -f solution only plays new content as it gets encoded.

IE 5 gives you the option to not install VBScript support.
Good points. I'll add:

Maybe you put a / on the end.

Sounds like this is better suited to hypothermia patients - it would make recovery less traumatic on the brain.
The 32 MB limit was the FAT12 file system, which survives today on MSDOS and VFAT format floppies.
[OT] IIRC, the minimum size of a FAT32 volume is 512 MB. The limit of FAT32X (FAT32 with support for > 8 GB partitions) is 1 TB.
Also, for the trivia buffs, NT (or is it OS/2?) can create and use 4 GB FAT16 volumes. The cluster size is pushed to 64 K.
Carbon Monoxide, Diamond, Graphite, and any Carbon halide not containing Hydrogen (i.e., Carbon Tetrachloride) are inorganic too.

That's one nasty bitch
Shouldn't the $ amount stay fixed at 0?
Seriously, that game's got the worst controls ever. Frustrating as hell.
