It interferes with my driving when I need to be looking for a 802.11 signal while watching the road at the same time.
Why don't they use some of their research funds to lobby the Highway Administration for road signs that would clearly mark places where there was donated bandwidth to be had?
Perhaps the author should get in touch with the wacky ophthalmologist responsible for this site and pick up a few tips on making indecipherable humor err...decipherable.
Using IE to access/. , all I got was a blue screen with a message that read:
Hi! How are you? I send you this Debian Potato in order to have your advice.
I'm sure glad I had Mozilla. A mere seven crashes, two freezes and a cookie later, I was able to read some News That Matters.
Re:Q: Why should an IE user switch?
on
Mozilla 0.9.5

That your query was posted over 24 hours ago and remains unanswered pretty much sums up why 'civilians' shouldn't bother using this bloated, buggy and unreliable piece of software.
Like it or not (and I don't), Internet Exploder is now the only game worth playing nowadays.
Unfortunately, the product it was designed to help (Mozilla) remains a bloated, steaming pile of canine feces. After trying every possible flavour of browser, I'll stick with IE, thank you.
I called the numbers listed above (all disconnected) tried to look at their website (down) and then looked at the Google cache of the site. I found a few Massachusetts telephone numbers for Ariston and gave them a try.
The 'customer service' number actually worked, but was reassigned to another company. The guy on the other end of the line told me that I "had the right number, but that company went out of business".
I also spoke to the admin contact listed in WhoIs and was also told that Ariston is no more.

Companies should show the love they feel toward their customers by increasing the broadcast strength of their Wavelan signal. I for one am sick and tired of having to enter corporate parking lots in order to check my email, read/., etc.
Although most corporate Wavelan users are considerate enough to not use encryption or passwords to protect their networks, a few paranoid companies have begun to implement these revolting practices.
Don't they understand that networks want to be free?
US high schools are crucibles that grind students into conformity.
Students who are different are bullied mercilessly. I'd wager that most of them have at one time considered extreme violence as a way to avenge themselves. Fortunately, few have actually carried out their thoughts.
Some assimilate into the collective blandness, others find a place where individuality is respected.
Those who neither conform or escape often go on to greatness, achieving fame as well as the ability to sneer at the high school bully - now employed as a 7-11 cashier.
A few smart people go over the edge. The kids who killed in Colombine were certainlt intelligent. One of the most interesting/horrifying things about Colombine was listening to the football players and cheerleaders talk about how they picked on other kids because they weren't like themselves.
American high schools should not become minimum security prisons, but they shouldn't be places where child abuse (albeit by other children) is tolerated, either.
Clearly a RIAA-approved version of Napster with a built-in version of Back Orifice needs to be deployed.
The record industry would then be able to not only determine whether there were any illegal copies of their works on individual computers, but be able to place songs users should be listening to onto their machines.
The Orifister(TM): "Playing the Songs You Should Hear, When We Want You To Listen.®"
It would be trivial for the RIAA to set a trap along the lines of this one using 'tagged' MP3s, DivXs, etc., and simply follow the trail of breadcrumbs.
Unfortunately, as I stated in an earlier post, there is no way to prevent the divergence of media, or the Balkanization as you put it, without resorting to even more stentorian methods of control.
Admit it: you've been waiting years you use stentorian in a sentence.

Jeesh, all the guy would've had to do was join the military and save $495.
Heck, I got p a i d a whole $600 bucks a month and they didn't charge me a dime for getting shouted at.

Whit is one of the original Cypherpunks; and a man who would happily tell his 'boss' Scott McNelly where to sitck his Java national ID card.
The .NET initiative is a stupid idea. Just because it's in Sun's interest to point this out does not make it any less daft.
