Ok, I agree with that totally. I am just griping because I am in IT, and have been working in IT for almost 6 years now. When I look at classes offered at collages, they are all old school... C programming, I mean sheesh, when I took the A+ test, they had old Apple2E questions on it, and IRQ questions!! I tell you, I memorized IRQ usage and their associations to COM ports etc., and the only time I have used this in years is on antique equipment. I guess I am expressing my frusteration , I would like to go and take collage, but I dont see any use ATM!:P
Soooo... Go to school for 4 - ? years... to learn the basics in a field, (and go into major debt doing it) then go into real world job, and are told 'forget what you learned in school, this is different'... Its the curriculum model that is antiquated. Its just not practical in many industries that knowledge advances faster than a curriculum can be made. The last thing I'm going to do is go pay to get an education about 5 year old hardware / software that by the time I graduate is not used any more!:P
Try using a different shell. It seems to me that explorer takes up a ton of ram, especially when doing anything besides looking at the background. Aston shell does great, and when paired up with the newest Phoenix build, everything seems to just zip and open up fast, and memory usage is a lot lower.:)
Isnt it better to have people reading it and find a bug years later than have nobody looking at the code (Windows NT for example) and we STILL have bugs and critical patches, and how many years has that been out????
But if they hired you, we couldnt read and be entertained by the rants of everyone complaining about dupes, now ccould we?!?!? Sometimes thats more entertaining than the article.:)
As far as I know, the scanner would recognize the pattterns of blood vessals in your eye, and as soon as blood stopped flowing through it (ie your eye was cut from your head) it would change the pattern to the point of being un-recognizable.
OK, I dont know about you guys, but I dont have a whole lot of end users who come up to me and complain about how they cant import or export their word documents into XML... Mostly its just 'word is frozen' or 'I cant move my mouse'. I honestly dont get why this is so hyped. I can allready search through.doc files on my network for text..
This will be cracked in no time, just think about the hype from Activating Windows XP, and a crack was out before it hit the shelves. It will be the same here.:)
And if this is not enough of a clue to people that the patent system is hopelessly outdated and needs to be reworked, I dont know what is...
A company claiming to have invented the internet, Bah!
Is this hardware platform only cheaper vs the licensing costs you will have with MS? The hardware itself for the servers / storage seems really expensive too me, but does it balance out with the per seat licensing costs included?
Does anyone else think that getting taxed on your income, THEN taxed again when you spend the leftovers, is a bit much?
Its just another way to shake down the consumers and pay those big saleries and retirement plans for senators who dont even bother reading proposels, but pass or veto them based on what their aide's tell them. So in reality, aide's run the country, but I bet they dont make spit.
Hehehe, actually, multi-cpu's in XP or 2K Pro help in gaming quite a bit. When you dont wanna shell out 500 bucks for a top of the line CPU, a dual athalon system is smokin fast for gaming, and lots of games like Unreal Tournament and Quake 3 are either allready setup to detect and use multi-cpu's, or you can tweak a config file to use it.
I use my Gateway 9500, 1.3 gig P4, every single day. I take it to work (1 hour drive) while I watch simpsons episodes during the drive and use all battery there. Then, at work (9 - 10 hours) its on AC and charges, then drive home and watch movies (again, 1 hour drive) and then sometimes have occasion to use it at home under battery. Even when I am not using it, it is in standby. Its lasted me almost a year, and still has almost a 4 hour battery life, and its not even gateway's 'premium' battery!:)
Slashdot Mirror
hopefully they dont include the virus scripting capabilities like M$ did... LoveLetter for SUN java anyone?

yea, but are they going to buy 200,000 PC's, and run power to them all, and admin them, etc.???
Compensation = .... Umm, you get to use their P2P network and download MP3's...
I didnt even have to read the article to tell you this, just read the dang summary, sheesh...
Ahhh, but what if the 'unverified story' is being leaked by a M$ rep to purposfully slow PS2 sales?

If the chinese government didnt take our money to dump it there, it wouldnt be there, so dont think they are the victims here...
That is the most hideous thing I have ever seen...
I thought the 70's was the end of that orange color, please PLEASE dont bring it back!
