Yet another journalist reporting on things he/she doesn't understand. The fact that this made it on Slashdot is even more ridiculous that the article's headline itself.
If you read the article it clearly says that Office 2007 is being RMT'ed in 2006, but won't be in the stores until January. It's not a delay in schedule, they're just now announcing the delivery dates. And a ship date was never officially mentioned before anyway.
Microsoft Office has shipped on time for every single release. Windows is very different of course since it's more of a platform than a whole bunch of manageable features.
Yeah this is complete FUD. I have no idea when these stupid rumors even started. There's support for a protected media path that is REQUIRED not by Microsoft but the movie studios and the MPAA and all that shit. If you want to watch HD-DVDs or whatever the future movie formats will be you will NEED to have support for this on your machine. I don't know any other way to put this.
I noticed that of all the mapping sites, the Virtual Earth (Live Local) one is the only one that actually has good printing support. You get a whole bunch of options for changing how the printouts look. Printing should be a greater focus on all the mapping services since that's really what you tend to do with driving directions.
I'm pretty sure these things have been around for about 10 years, they were called WEB PORTALS. Except now they AJAXulated all over it and you can drag stuff around with the mouse!
I'd much rather have Motorola make a travel charger that doesn't suck, a WAP browser that doesn't run like shit and crash, and just about half a dozen other ways my phone sucks.
Oh, and stop making trendy super-thin emo phones that are super hard to hold.
Just for the record, I can't be called a creationist. I seek a scientific explanation for the origins of life but I am not satisified by current theories.
I don't have a strong interest in biology so I'll just take your word for it that evolution sufficently explains the creation of a species in a specific timeframe on earth. I'm sure it works quite well with such constraints placed upon it.
I'd like an answer to such things as to how inorganic matter became living or even how matter came to exist in the first place. I'm pretty sure evolution can't answer these questions. And if it can't, it really is not a general theory of the origins of life but just a way to explain specific biological processes.
Evolution is one of the most well-established theories? Hundreds of new observations to support it each day? You're exaggerating, by a longshot. There are plenty observations made "each day" that contradict evolutionary theories. There are also many established scientists who don't support it too.
But, believing that a single theory like evolution can explain life is believing in an absolute. Which is no different from many religous doctrines.
A complex system cannot be explained under a single theory within a vaccum, it must exist relative to other systems and would require many theories to describe it sufficently. And there are few systems as complex as life.
The theory of evolution is an attempt to find an absolute in a relativistic universe, it doesn't exist. It is based off age-old beliefs in simple cause and effect, and projecting those flawed beliefs over the span of millions of years. The universe does not operate this way. With our modern knowledge of relativism and quantum mechanics, evolution should be debunked.

The 1T-SRAM makes it all worth it, even if there's only 24 megs.

Actually Sega has been making games for Nintendo for quite some time now.

ODF isn't even an open format, it actually contains several proprietary parts that are patented by Sun.
No, IFRAMEs are always used, its necessary to make the browser back button work correctly.
ASP.NET 2.0 outputs XHTML 1.1
It says its the full Windows XP.
I've been playing around with the Office 2007 beta and the charting GUI is real nice. The charts actually look modern now too.
It's the damn military. Unrestricted Internet is not a right, especially when you're supposed to be working.

Virtual Earth (now Live Local) has a pretty good API.
Actually it's 77 planets.
Tibet's Free? I'll take two!

"Our device uses two crystals instead of one, which doubles the acceleration potential," says Jeffrey Geuther
Yeah well, now I'm going to use three!

It's not really that special. I think just about every CS research lab in a University has one of these projects.

I can't find any proof inthis vulnerability that suggests it allows remote code execution or does anything but crash the browser.
That is all.
Yes, when you have tons of screen space like I do, it helps to spread your windows out. =)
