The question remains: How much of the original finger print was altered when the 'background' was removed? How exactly does the filter decide what is background noise and what is not?
It seems to me fingerprint evidence is as much about what isn't there as what is.
First, I dont know what all this hubub about tabbed browsing and mouse gestures has been. W/o a quick way to cycle through my tabs,
Mouse gesture Up-Left or Up-Right IIRC. Or CTRL-PgUp / CTRL-Pg Down. Or try the Radial context pie menus - a little easier to learn than the mouse gestures.
Personally I find the Tabbrowser Extentions add a bit more functionality to tabs aswell. (I particularly like the addition of a close button to each tab, and the ability to drag'n'drop to re-order the tabs.
w/o being to have a tab be automagically reloaded,
See the Tabbrowser Extention above.
w/o a keyboard shortcut to close the tab,
CTRL-W
There are mose gestures too, but you didnt ask that:)
I dont see why opening multiple windows and using the WinXP group programs feature isn't any better.
Memory, and (personally) speed. I'm already focussed on that window, so having a 'taskbar' on that window seems faster than going to the real taskbar, hunting down the correct application group, and then choosing the new window.
Second, the auto-scroll Moz bug has been around forever. Every time Ive been on another computer and browsed in IE, I realiz how often I use that feature. It drives me crazy not having it in Moz.
We're different I guess. I prefer the scroll wheel.
Third, maybe I can w/ a theme, but I can not quickly move and re-arrange my bars like I can in IE.
On it's way. Pheonix includes something like this atleast.
On top of that its very anoying when I go to some sites to be told I have to have such and such browser.
You might try something to mung your UA string. How about the PrefsBar2.
Numero cinco. Mime types. It is really anoying to click on links like.rar,.wmv, etc. and just have the file not downloaded, but opened in a new window or tab. I see where I can add such mime types, but this should be done already.
Misconfigured server problem. But look on the bright side, at least Moz doesnt automagically run.exe s with a mime type of audio/x-wav;)
7. Mouse gestures were a joke. Every time I wanted to highlight something, and then copy it, the gestures decided I wanted to close Moz. I could have saved this with a modified key, but then what is the point of the gesture if I have to hit my keyboard?
Preferences>Advanced>Mouse Gestures. Change the 'Make Mouse Gestures with' option to something more sensible like "Right Mouse button". I agree, 'Left Mouse button' is a bit of a silly default.
8. Until I hunted it down, Moz would not let me use anything other then composer for mailto: links. This I was able to fix, but it was not cool.
As you know know, theres a line you can set in your prefs.js file (I cant for the life of me remember what it is though - I use composer:) )
9) I'm on a 56k modem, so couldnt comment. Seems weird though
10) IE and Moz seem roughly equal on my WinXP machine. I just prefer browsing in Moz though.
Ill finish out my two weeks, but I can't wait to get back to IE. I am just as anxious to try Moz again after the next big release.
The first time I tried Mozilla seriously (back in the 0.9.2 days), I went running back to IE pretty quickly. I think it's quite a big culture shock initially.
I went back to it at about the 0.9.5 stage, dug around the preferences for a bit, and it's been my default browser ever since.
Theres a cut down version of Windows XP that [url=http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/programs/s a/sam/winPe.asp]does[/url]. Of course it's incumbered with all sorts of restrictions IIRC, like rebooting every 24 hours or so.
I did my final GCSE art project with POV-Ray, back in ooh, 1996. It took 1 week to render at 800*600 with antialiasing on. This was on a 16MHz 68030 Atari Falcon030, 4Mb ram, no FPU co-processor.
2 years ago I dug it out, cleaned it up a bit, and ran it on my AMD 46-2 300.
By the way, have you noticed that Windows 98 drivers don't work in W2K or XP? Have you noticed that many W2K CDRW drivers do not work in XP? Even Microsoft understands the virtue of changing binary compatibility.
Nit-pick. WDM drivers targetted at Win98 should work with 2k and XP.
'Course, thats should, but I've got at least one device (a digital camera) that worked like this.
I thought it said 'Macrovision' rather than 'Microvision' and wondered how your vision constantly changing brightness could be considered a good thing:)
Why? Because otherwise, 90% of computers out there, run by the technologically clueless population will never get this patch applied.
Yes they will. Thats what the auto updater is for. It downloads the patch in background while the technologically clueless user is browsing, then prompts them to install it by asking them "We send you this update in order to have your advice".
Athlons run extremely hot. Pentium III and IV chips don't run as hot as Athlons, but I'd hate to see what happens when the heatsink malfunctiones on a 2GHz P4.
The clock speed throttles down, saving the processor from overheating.
I was under the impression that all the recent consoles were technically classed as 32-bit, since this is the maximum integer precision of the CPUs. (Though I'm not sure about the G3 and Vr5900 cpus as I havnt checked)
I'd go looking for links, but I'm using IE while I update Mozilla (56k modem), and I dont want to prolong this IE experiance any more than I have to:)

So the offspring is not viable, or more accurately sterile.
Kinda like the product of a horse and a donkey. You can make it (an ass) , but you cant distribute it (or breed more from the ass).

Links tool bar and style sheet switching are two things that come to mind (style sheet switching can be added back with an extention though)
No, sorry.
Did you do something like install over your last install, or not start a new profile?
OOo (and Star Office 6) simply zips its files up. Try zipping the .doc and see if it gets anywhere close to the .sxw file.
I did. If he wins, theres nothing to stop him from reconsidering his ideology and going after everyone else.
Infact, he'd be on even stronger ground.
Surely this is bad news for Mozilla, opera et al as well?

Last time I checked, ATI cards suffered the same problem (at least they have similar tools to fix the problem).

Anyway, heres a link that offers some solutions (for ATI
Dammnit, that was supposed to be this. Forgot where I was there for a minute.

OpenOffice.org's additional dictionaries are here. English UK is there too.

I'm not suprised you couldn't find it, it's buried quite deep
Since when do you bury people who are cremated?

Tiny correction.
Croteam uses OpenGL, but has also added DirectX8 support since.
If thats what you want, check the USB On the go extention to USB2.

You can guess what the standard response will be.
[.tv] is already gone. It died September 20th IIRC. There is another all computer game channel on there though, but I forget what its called.

So, does anyknow know which company or individual is the author of the Magic Latern program under such a government contract?
*Shrug*, anyone asked Cult of the Dead Cow if they've had a nice cheque recently?
I didnt see the Atari Jaguars port mentioned either.
This site also has quite an interesting feature comparison beween the various ports:
