The way this works is each | represents one tick mark and you have to move one and only one | mark to make the problem true. This is ideally suppossed to be done with match heads so you can think of V and X as two seperate match heads combined together. You can't change the = sign and make it a less than symbol. I will post the answer in the next reply.
I type in Dvorak but I don't find it hard to type in Qwerty. My Qwerty typing speeds have gone down but I am still much faster than the average person at typing. Dvorak does have less finger movement but if RSI is your problem then you might be better off with a better desk setup and a keyboard pad. The only thing I do not like about Dvorak is that the keyboard shortcuts are much less convenient.
I agree with you that you should try and only use IE for Windows Updates but online banking I would avoid. Online banking needs to be extremly secure and I do not trust IE to handle everything properly. If your bank does not have compatibility with Mozilla Firefox then I personally would try and switch to another bank since that security hole is too big to ignore.
That is one of the best things about it. When you switch to DVORAK you still know QWERTY. It is sort of like riding a bike, you don't forget it. The only problem I have is when I start typing I forget I am in QWERTY and start to type in DVORAK.
Dvorak is typed about the same speed as QWERTY once you learn it. Dvorak's main advantage is that it requires less movement of the fingers. This reduces stress on the wrist and makes it better for people with carpal tunnel.
It does, Mozilla delayed the update because the servers were getting overloaded when it first came out. By now it should report there being an update and allow you to install that.
I think you saw this as "New Vulnerabilities Discovered in Internet Explorer." The vulnearabilities have been fixed in Firefox 1.0.1 but there hasn't been much press about them until now.
Sure, it's a great idea, but it has a lot of implications. For example, commercial sites rely on their banner ads to generate revenue. If I cache one of their pages, this will mess with their statistics, and mess with their banner ads. In other words, this will piss them off.
Of course, most of the time, the commercial sites that actually have income from banner ads easily withstand the Slashdot Effect. So perhaps we could draw the line at sites that don't have ads. They are, after all, much more likely to buckle under the pressure of all those unexpected hits. But what happens if I cache the site, and they update themselves? Once again, I'm transmitting data that I shouldn't be, only this time my cache is out of date!
I could try asking permission, but do you want to wait 6 hours for a cool breaking story while we wait for permission to link someone?
So the quick answer is: "Sure, caching would be neat." It would make things a lot easier when servers go down, but it's a complicated issue that would need to be thought through in great detail before being implemented.
That is really odd. It might be something configured wrong but I can't think of anything offhand. I have been able to get it working in Suse, Mandrake, Fedora, and Gentoo.
I have had no trouble getting Hotmail to work in Mozilla Firefox. You might want to try using a more recent version of Mozilla if you aren't already using the most up to date version.
Myth TV seems like it would make a much better choice. It is open source and probably has a lot more features then Intel's version. The only advantage with Intel would be a much easier setup.
They don't have IMAP support but they do have Pop support. I have Mozilla Thunderbird configured to check my Gmail account, hotmail account, and my school e-mail account.
If you use ndiswrapper (http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net) you can use your Windows drivers with linux. Just be aware that it isn't as easy as getting other Wireless cards working in linux. Just make sure to follow the instructions step by step and you shouldn't have any problems.
I have tried out tux racer on both Windows and linux and I have noticed that the Windows version runs significantly better. I have a computer with a AMD 3.2 Ghz processor and a Nvidia 6800 GT. When I run Tux Racer on Windows it runs very smoothly. I then tried it in Fedora and it was unbearable. I had the updated drivers for my card installed and all the packages were up to date but it still ran horribly. I wanted to confirm that this was a fluke so I tried this out on my laptop (which runs Mandrake) and got similar results. If people want linux gaming taken seriously then the games will have to be built more reliably. I have also noticed that in order to get anything with 3D support there are often several packages that need to be installed and these aren't always included with most distributions.
I also built a computer case made out of Legos. It isn't as nice as the one shown but I thought I would share it with the rest of Slashdot. You can view some pictures on my website at http://home.comcast.net/%7Esessions9/lego.html.
Actually my main system runs Suse 9.1 and my laptop runs Mandrake 10.1 since Suse had some problems detecting some of my devices. I have each configured to dual boot so that they can run windows apps if needed. I added that as my sig because I think people here can be a little too anti-Windows at times.

O yeah, I have a link that will prove you wrong.

I am still waiting for Microsoft to release a version of Internet Explorer for Linux.

That is where the flux capacitor comes in handy.

My bad, I realized shortly after my post that I made this mistake. My processor is an AMD Athlon XP 3200.

Asking a group of Slashdot users to run a windows program is as absurd as asking a Linux user to run Bonzi Buddy.
