Yes, we did this back in (I think) 8th grade. I remember my group getting an A for doing the Mai Lai Massacre in Lego format... it was actually a quite impressive scene. All the pics, unfortunately, were lost in a house fire.
Now, IIRC, this is a misinterpretation. Bowden's book listed 500 fatalities among over a thousand casualties. Now, I'm not an expert in the field, but this would seem to indicate 500 killed among a thousand wounded. Casualty!=fatality.
Actually, since Compuserve/Passport/etc. use proprietary systems, doesn't that make them Internet Content Providers rather than Internet Service Providers? POP is a service, but Passport is just content, right?
So... considering that, wouldn't MS now be in direct competition with AOL for content, considering that both now use proprietary e-mail protocols in their services? I sense an upcoming battle in this area, with the ICPs competing for market share, and POP servers standing somewhere off to the side and laughing.

Better than having to pay an extra $699 to SCO for my toaster.
No, you'd just have to pay SCO their special reduced price for embreaded Linux systems.
