Hmmm, my experience with Richard Morrell has been very good. Although from what I know, he has no patience with people who think they know it all. But bearing in mind he did, in the last couple of months, get shafted by the directors of the company producing the corporate version of the firewall. So it's understandable if people were asking him questions about it, that he may have been somewhat annoyed shall we say.
Before anybody says it, I'm not suggesting that the author of the article contacted him around that time, etc., etc. In fact I severly doubt that at all.
Some people have said about not supporting Microsoft, but buying the XBox wouldn't support them, as they make a loss on it. As long as you didn't buy any software for it, you would actually be contributing to Microsofts downfall.:)
It was a picture frame with an LCD screen that had a memory stick slot on it. All you did was shove one in and it would display pictures off the memory stick.
Sorry if that wasn't useful in helping you build one, but I thought that might be useful.
...covered by this, but this raises two questions:
Given that we have lots of interoperabilty between devices now, how would this affect a device that was built with no relation to that law? Either by age or location.
Surely this would essentially "require" other countries to inflict similar laws on their citizens?
One person has noticed this that I can see so far and hopefully I can reiterate:
This is only for access to the Passport system for the single sign on.
Hence the cost per application.
I think too many people are knee jerk reacting to this, making comments before using their heads.
My only criticism is that Microsoft say this will only just cover their costs, which I'm a little suspicious of, since bandwidth use would be minimal. I think that the costs would be recovered very quickly given the projections of the number of companies signed up for this. I'm guessing that even eBay have to pay a lot of money for the privilege of this, since I bet they have a custom contract as well.
...pump movement data from some JavaScript into an applet (should work, not sure). The Applet opens a connection to some server, and passes it all on. In real time if need be I suppose.
...I developed a scheduler using JESS, which is a Lisp like language written in Java, which integrates with Java. I did look at Lisp as a candidate solution, but a lot of compilers support the CommonLisp standard to varying levels, which caused some headaches.
The performance using JESS was quite incredible given that it was a language within Java.
I also agree that Lisp is an absolute pig when it comes to readibility, you just get brackets everywhere, and you end up adding more and more.
I downloaded 10 gigs of the bugger a little while ago. Installed it nicely, not much of a problem, I rebooted...Then it stopped after firing up Apache, gave up after that point and I'm juggling MandrakeFreq at the moment.
Wouldn't it make sense for the API for IEs libraries and stuff to go public? Surely it isn't wormed so deep into the OS that it can't be changed? My lecturers at Uni would've ripped my testicles off for writing code like that.
Surely TCP/IP is a part of the kernel and doesn't need to be removed. But wouldn't it be feasible to replace the HTML renderer etc., with Mozillas one. (Ignoring rewrites necessary to fit in with the API for convenience here though, as time consuming as that might be.)? I'm positive that this should be possible, and would also allow a fairly sensible comparison of the engines.
What about QNX or BeOS? Maybe BeOS is a bit dead in the water, but QNX is a solid and ultra fast OS that does multimedia quite well.
I think that Linux is possibly a bit too fragmented with far too many different standards for sound drivers and stuff like that to be that useful. Yes, to anybody who asks, I have used some of these pieces of software under Linux.

Hahahahahahaha...Everyone knows that Colin McCrae only went over to Ford because they did a Microsoft. i.e. Paid him a shit load of cash.
Subaru will stamp all over Ford and their Focus like they did last year.

Shame it doesn't cover hardware, as then Munchs Odyssee for the XBox might once again make an appearance on the PS2.

With a cash-less society, surely there would be no cash theft, but there would be credit-card fraud etc.?
So theft would be eliminated, but what once was theft has now become fraud.
Mmmm, feely mouse.

There was an analogue network, but GSM has been available for about 5 years, plus two of the networks now have GPRS available.
Isn't that obvious, it would be like me buying a more expensive car with less options over the internet. I wouldn't do it.
Er, both my PS2 and my Playstation were bought without games. Usually the bundles are either one off promo things or they're done by the shop.

Wouldn't it splashing you with water probably cause you to veer off? Since most people would probably flail their arms around if that happened.
