That http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/catalog/en/d efault.asp gives: You must be running a Microsoft Windows operating system in order to use Windows Update.
That's linux + mozilla. I could have konqueror lie to MS, but I have no windows system to update -- and who cares anyway, eh? Except of course windows users who want a clean system on the web, poor pets.
Back when I first installed linux (dual boot) I hardly ever booted into it, and thus didn't learn all that much about it.
Half a year or so down the road I read an article on one or the other linux sites that said "just switch to it for a few months". So I did. I did get win4lin for that last program (omnipro for me). KMail is very very good, konqueror is just great (gotta love the file preview), the GIMP is excellent, the scanners work (and the colors with vuescan are even better than those I got from photoshop+silverfast windows), OOo works for texts and spreadsheets and compresses its files too - lovely.
I've been running linux for a year or two now. It helps that I use SUSE, which is nicely polished, as distros go.
Ah, but then you're not on linux. The/plugins/ folders are root. Moz is not.
You cannot install things on Moz by going clicky clicky... which is a good thing, seeing the dozens of spybots that regularly turn up on clueless windoze user machines.
There are some excellent front ends to e.g. pgsql/mysql/etc. but nothing Ma & Pa Kettle's General Store can fire up w/o being a DB admin. Is there?
Try Rekall or Knoda. Both are quite nice database frontends, if you can get them to run on your system.
OOo's ODBC support (which I last tried around OOo 1.0) works but is rudimentary: no forms, no reports, therefore no linked tables, and no relational database.
Rekall, Knoda, look'em up, try them out, they're cool.
YaST checks for changes in manual configs and don't change those config files after that - so if you've worked with one file you can't use yast on that later. Or, you can, but then you have to manually incorporate the whatever.conf.yast file into your whatever.conf file.
The interview points out that since the last caldera-forming eruption, which was 640,000 years ago, there have been 30 smaller eruptions. That's an average of one eruption per 21,000 years. According to the USGS, the last eruption at Yellowstone was 70,000 years ago. It's not unreasonable to suggest that another eruption could occur in the near future.
Weee-eell. There might've been more eruptions earlier (perhaps like this: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 72, 144, etc. thousand years between eruptions), in which case the next one is due in, lessee, three million years, give or take a few millions.
We all know that the news only plays the parts that sell (normally the worst parts) of reality, which leaves everyone with a twisted idea of what it is like. So if I was born and raised in Iraq, what would my life really be like?
There's a nice little program called "InCtrl5". It was freeware, from PCMag, but they now want money for their "free downloads"... should be easy to do, though.
It takes a snapshot of your system before and after you install something, and shows you the difference. Configurable - "don't include this directory" or "include this directory" - but really, the default settings (check windows directories, registry, autoexec.bat, config.sys) are sufficient.
'course, haven't used it in quite a while, now that I use SuSE... but it was useful, way back when.
That's why you schedule your backups for after hours, surely. If you don't, don't blame the user, blame yourself for not understanding how people work.
No real disagreements, but it *is* nice to have this sort of stuff managed by your package manager.
Except that there need to be different rpms for RedHat, Mandrake, SuSE... and for different versions of those distros. What's the probability that this archive will track all of that? 10 %? Lower?
Really, the cpan setup keeps track of its own dependencies, and gives you flippant comments like "yep, it's a nice idea to include this if you actually were to wish to use that" to boot. No rpm setup can get close to that.
Funny enough, most users don't know about Extensions
After trying to install two of the thingies on http://extensionroom.mozdev.org/ right now, there's no "funny enough" about that.
THEY DO NOT WORK.
One says "Install failed. Error code:-239." - the "more" button of that particular one (button that replaces flash) tells me I need to be root to install it, and even then I have to twiddle things around...
The other says "installing.... done" but right after that there's an error message: "required file not found: prefbar_seamonkey.xgi not found." That's _lousy_.
I feel disinclined to try any of the others.

Mozilla's calandering SUCKS balls. Sorry but it does.
Nope. The Mozilla calendar was a very happy find for me, and I use it exclusively now... instead of the Sidekick calendar, which I used on windows.
That's Moz 1.3 on linux.
Now, for something useful as an address book... the KDE address book thingy included with suse 8.1 is frankly lousy.
And enormously overused. Flash as your full front page, as ads, menus, back/next buttons? Bloody newbs. It's nice in the occasional game, where animated mouse-driven content actually makes _sense_, but should be taken behind the barn and shot if found anywhere else.
You're forgetting XBill. XBill is actually very pro-M$. Because no matter what you do, sooner or later you end up with winbows on every machine on the screen.
It should be changed so that you can actually win the game. No more Bills to swat at level 10, or at 1000 points, or whatever.
What sourceforge needs is a way to, umm, _abandon_ abandoned projects. Dunno what I was looking for there, but among the tens of programs their search engine dug up, only one or two actually had any "meat". The rest were just project statements, with links to years-gone maintainer webpages.
In addition sourceforge is too big for its search engine. Nine times out of ten the reply to any search is: "we're busy right now, try again later".
> Sorry.. anything that bonds into my bloodstream, goes straight to my brain, and there releases Formaldehyde and Methanol is _not safe_,
Now ask yourself, why do some people get symptoms from chemicals while others do not? It's all down to how good their liver is. Help that and you'll feel enormously better. Also, check exercise and diet.
It always pays to look at the whole person. I should know, I'm a practising herbalist.

I'd love to know of a drupal-capable hosting company ... mine, currently, isn't quite up to scratch.

You can.
WAAAY more expensive than a good quality digital camera, though. So how much money do you have?
According to this page: Word Perfect Office 11 Paradox is part of the package.
I'd buy the complete suite just to get that, on linux.

SuSE: Now we need a new thing to complain about SuSE.
The best candidate would probably be the lack of a working video playing setup on the install CDs/DVD.
Downloading and installing the missing packages off the packman site works, though, so shrug.

Lovely setup really.
See, you have 2 speakers at 90 dB each, that's 180 dB, right?

good results (better than MSN that does not give my homepage when I type my name, only pages that link to it?!?).
Heh - I hadn't even noticed. Not that I use MSN all that often, and never for any "real" searches.
So I'm the top hit for "Henriette" on google, not even on the first page on MSN; ditto for "Henriette's herbal".
MSN: that's lousy.
