Let's say you have a text editor with an unsaved file.
From a file-manager window, you drag the folder you want the text file to be saved in. While dragging, a the folder's icon appears (50%-transparently) at the mouse pointer. As soon as you move the mouse above the text editor window the folder will enlarge to the size of the window. When dropping, the file is saved into the folder.
This would make it quite clear that the file is saved into the folder and not the other way round.
That's what I thought when I read it. I think I'm gonna get a IIIe or something and try to hack that stuff by myself. My Palm IIIc is to expensive and fragile. Wouldn't it be possible to transfer the IIIe's interiors into a metal case? I already opened some of them and found it quite easy to use them without their original plastic cases.
Is a cell phone like they have in Europe where I can switch providers by simply changing a small chip inside it, instead of buying a new frickin phone. (Fixing to have to do this due to the supreme suckage of Sprint PCS in my area)
well, here in germany, i can even switch to other providers by altering the software configuration...
but i'm sure with a wind*ws-os you may fix any phone-related problem because the wizzards will be glad to help you ('do you really want to place this call? - yes, no, perhaps, cancel, abort)
Isn't that great? Now I am asked (at least) twice before the OS accepts my decision to dial the number I wanted to.
I want to place some simple calls. I don't need any games and stuff and high-resolution graphics. I don't want any over-sized processors burn my hands just because the display needs to show a 32-bit-color-depth, 60*60-pixels, animated start-up-logo. That's what I have my PDA for:)
I use Linux because I just like it better. I have absolutely no idea why I should try to emulate Windows Software on my computer slowing it down and making it unstable.
Isn't it easier and much more convenient to have a dual-boot system making it possible to run a *real* Windows OS?

Hey, what about this:
Let's say you have a text editor with an unsaved file.
From a file-manager window, you drag the folder you want the text file to be saved in. While dragging, a the folder's icon appears (50%-transparently) at the mouse pointer.

Wow, sounds kinda nice.
But most people are used to droping the file into the folder rather than dropping the folder onto/around the file.
And what, if not /.ing, did *you* try to do?
Attention! Runs MS Windows! High crashability!
That BASIC stuff is boring (eg too easy to understand <g
Has anyone seen a webserver written in brainfuck yet? That would be real fun!
I am sure it is!
Compare page rendering speed while resizing Opera and IE Windows. IE is *much* faster rendering a page full of tables and text like slashdot.
I still use Opera for I wouldn't want to miss all the lovely features.
