Since when are taxes and subsidies mutually exclusive?
They are not mutually exclusive, but I was adressing the total input/output . In this case the governement gets something out (VAT) without putting anything in (no subsidies).
I wonder if France and Canada and so-forth have subsidised internet from the government.
No subsidies in France. Quite the opposite : there's a 19.6% sale tax in the prices quoted in the article. Basic 16 mpbs DSL service cost about $15 without taxes.
With the new "canvas" available in upcoming Firefox, it should be possible to write pretty much any application with just Javascript (and lots of sweat !)
It will not bring competition. Chances are that building a second reactor will be way too expensive, and the EU is betting that once it starts building ITER, the "other side" will prefer to join in rather than gather (a lot) more funding to build a second reactor.
Frankly I'd rather loose one or two legit mail discussing spam filters than having to deal with Bayesian filters "mistakes" when obvious spam keywords appear in the mail.
Yep however Bayesian filters might be fooled by the rest of the message. Any email with the word "v1agr4" has to be automatically SPAM, it should be discarded without even having a look at the rest of the mail.
Driver headache is the #1 reason while I stick to Windows. I have better things to do with my time than trying to get my OS working. A system that finds, download configure drivers would be a huge boost to Linux.
One thing that would be important though is having a GUI to also view basic parameters for the drivers (MAC address, ATA mode, etc.)
True, but even if a database is not hosted on Windows Server (and many still are), the developper might work on a Windows desktop. Having a local copy of the database to test out your work is convenient (and also safe).
Also many newbie developpers run Windows. Once they have learned and moved on to Unix, they tend to stick to the tools they started out with.
If you can do that then I would guess you don't do many queries, and they aren't very complicated either. Switching databases usually involve checking SQL query and rewriting some of them to fit the new database idiom, because no database seem to agree on how to interpret SQL.

Why MySQL Grew So Fast

Actually it doesn't make much sense to have two "development" versions. They might just as well scrap 4.1 and put all their effort into getting 5.0 finished ASAP.
Also a way to emulate MySQL idioms transparently on PostgreSQL would make migration a blast. I've been considering moving our system from MySQL to PostgreSQL but having to check and correct every single SQL query of a 100k+ PHP application is just not worth it.
A single Xeon is the same as a Pentium 4, so for a single CPU you are looking at a ~$1500 system.
2 CPU systems are affordable, beyond that you should look into replication with several systems (if possible), as it will be a lot cheaper to have 2x2 CPUs rather than 1x4 CPU.
7. Has native, free, easy to install, Windows binaries (you know, that little niche Operating System that happens to just run on 95% of computers out there...)
And don't tell me to turn them off in my configuration file.
Then turn them off in your.htaccess . If that's also not an option, you can still turn them off with a PHP command that you could include at the beginning of every script.

Never heard of the Battle of the Marne, eh ?

Use a laptop : efficient ones use a *lot* less electricity than a desktop.

The article says the French TGV reach 218 mph
It's much cheaper because it can go directly from one downtown to another, whereas most airports are located somewhat far away from cities.
On top of this, boarding is a lot lot faster (no need to be there 1 hour before departure).

AFAIK, version 7.0 came out in 2000. By that time, PHP and MySQL were already a successful couple.
French tend to be a bit less compact than English (well, American English to be exact).
The Turk mmCache accelerator also provide a way to easely store and retrieve variables in shared persistant memory.
Spyware can easely be stopped by raising the security level in IE or installing Firefox.
I can see plenty of uses for a Windows 98 emulator. Pocket Civilization ! Now you can spend every free minute of your life playing just one more.

Actually MySQL throws a warnign when using transactions with non-transaction aware tables (that's what the doc says anyway)
you'll find that ADO does have connection pooling (PHP does not)

That is a *very* good idea.
