Well, Mr. #255, I don't know what you mean. I just brought up a contextual menu in IE5.0.
Well, Mr. #239442, if you were paying any attention you'd know that the discussion is about Mozilla. What IE does is irrelevent when we're complaining about what Mozilla doesn't do.
Actually OpenOffice build 638 does include a "Quickstart" load-on-boot feature (Windows only, I think). It cuts my load time (on a 500Mhz K6-2 with 184 megs of RAM) from 15 seconds to about 5.
Many dynamic sites, including Slashdot, use Apache. IIS has ASP, but apache can use Perl, Python, PHP, and other scripting languages. There's no reason to think that IIS has a higher % of dynamic sites than Apache.
Slashcode automatically inserts spaces in long words to make sure they wrap properly in nested view. Otherwise, somebody could make a huge string of letters, we'd get a horizontal scrollbar, and we'd have to scroll to see the end of every comment.
I believe that Mozilla for Mac defaults to a skin designed to look like native MacOS widgets, but doesn't actually use native widgets. However, as someone stated above, Mozilla on all platforms does use some native widgets under certain conditions.
With newer versions of Redhat, Mandrake, and most other distros, setup isn't as hard as it once was. I stuck a Redhat 7.1 CD in my computer the other day and it autoconfigured my sound and video cards (including 3D acceleration), my CD burner, my modem, and my ethernet card, and it presented me with a simple GUI setup for my printer. That stuff took me weeks to set up under Debian a year ago. Linux installation is far simpler than many people think, and it's always getting easier.
but Linux really really really needs (in addition to Office compatibility, a great browser and a great desktop)
What's wrong with Mozilla? Better-looking and more standards-complient than IE. Or, if you like speed and OS integration, use Konqueror or Galeon.
I'm aware of Debian and apt-get, etc. (and those are great) But there should also be a "double-click setup.exe" process of installing programs on Linux, and a similarly easy way of uninstalling them, with NO ERROR MESSAGES ABOUT MISSING VERSIONS OF SOME OBSCURE 9k LIBRARY FILE OR HAVING VERSION 1.07 OF A PROGRAM WHEN THE NEW PROGRAM WANTS VERSION 1.08!!
If you're online, apt won't complain about not having the required program, it'll just download it and install it. Does Installshield do that? Besides, most applications provide links to the extra libraries you'll need on their web pages.

He means 2.5. There has been a long period w/out a development kernel, even though Linus has promised several times that he was going to fork one soon.
That means almost nothing.. if you use the logo, you're saying you use FrontPage. As long as that's accurate, you're fine. It just keeps you from using the FrontPage logo on a site that doesn't use it.
Put a big, heavy steel door between the pilots and everyone else (openable only from inside). Have knockout gas sprayers outside the door in case someone trie to break it down.

Downloading the ads doesn't mean you have to display them.

I use Evolution and it works great. However, it's Unix-only, until someone ports it.

Maybe it hasn't admitted them, but it did fix a lot of them. Quicktime 5 is much better than Quicktime 4 was.

I left my computer on for a few hours today, and my firewall blocked 139 nimda attacks. It'still going.
Because it's legal.

Why is the vendor listed as "??? US Govt"? I've never heard any evidence linking them to SirCam.
No - pure silence is easily copyable and can be compressed extremely well.
It has been on /., and it got > 900 comments.
There's no sound degradation if you use the digital in/outs of high-end CD players and sound cards.
Maybe more like OS X.

Circular dependencies aren't that bad. I've never used RH, but under apt, you just have to tell it to upgrade both at the same time.
I think he meant that 100% of the code was cross-platform, not that the code was portable to 100% of platforms.

How 'bout we DDOS him for a while? Have people keep calling his name and then saying "never mind".
