I find it interesting that, after several failed attempts by many people to register the domain "F-CK.COM" (having been turned down by Network Solutions because of their `right to not register inappropriate domains' [see below]), the NIC turns around and registers it for themselves.

Network Solutions, Inc., the private corporation that provides InterNIC registration services, declines to register the domain name for which you have applied. Network Solutions has a right founded in the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution to refuse to register, and thereby publish, on the Internet registry of domain names words that it deems to be inappropriate. Additionally, Network Solutions' outside counsel has advised us that the Supreme Court of the United States has held that no corporation can be compelled to engage in publication which that corporation finds to be inappropriate.

They had the trailer tonight at a late-afternoon showing of "The Corruptor". If that wasn't enough, there was a trailer for The Matrix directly following. Life is good.
Oh yeah, anyway, The Corruptor was good. Lots of explosions and stuff. And it has a cool car chase. See it if you like that kind of stuff.
Nobody's going to bet their business on tuning a server to meet the needs of the clients? I can tell you one thing, if that business gets popular, then they're royally screwed.
There's a nice big Microsoft "Get everything you need to evaluate Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 4.0" banner on the top of the news page on that site. Go figure.
MICROSOFT CONFIDENTIAL -- Memorandum -- From: Bill Gates To: All borg Re: Microsoft Corporation "Divide and Conquer" Regrouping Plan
Here are the groups I intend to split M$ into.
1) Marketing 2) Sales 3) Lying 4) Ripping off other people's concepts
So basically, just stay where you are and keep doing what you're doing. Sales should not attempt to sell to the marketing, lying, or rip-off teams, however.

Seeing as how I've only tried Slackware and Redhat so far, maybe it's time to "play the field"..
