Maybe it is time for you to learn how to paste text without format
That's pretty funny. So, to avoid having pasted text disrupt the page settings, I have to throw out all of the formatting in the pasted text, then re-do it. Cool feature!
Cairo became Windows 2000? Where's my "Object Filesystem", then? How about the distributed filesystem? (I'm aware of the 'dfs' MSFT has in Win2k -- but it's just a CIFS naming and redirection service, not a Distributed Filesystem).
Uh, are you sure you're using MS-Office? Ever have any Bullet Madness? Sudden appearance of Times New Roman? Word saving files it can't later read back in (but OpenOffice can)? 1k HTML files processed into 100K HTML files by Word? Pasting text from one document into another and having the document's margins get reset?... and that's just today!

only support Microsoft IE, mainly because they use a lot of.asp
Wow, that's a lame excuse. There's nothing inherent in ASP that requires IE for it to work right. It's just sloppy and lazy programming on the part of the developers! Sloppy and lazy!

Can I have my karma now?:D
The "task grouping" that XP's taskbar goes originated in Gnome. The "you have a message" pop-up in the lower-right of the screen that Outlook 2003 does originated with Mozilla Mail, as far as I know.
Use the "set program access and defaults" thing to disable messenger --- and IE while you're at it (it's still there for windows update, just not available to the user or as a default browser that pops up when you click and href somewhere).
No biggie. They can just license Fairplay "for use with the iPod" and avoid cannibalizing iPod sales.
They could also license the iPod "protocol" so to speak, as a package with the Fairplay DRM. This would require that iPod-compatible devices behave in certain ways, and be usable with iTunes, etc. Much like Microsoft specifies certain features for its various gadget designs (Pocket PC, for example -- has to work with ActiveSync).
An option for "Do not load remote XUL", enabled by default, with the ability to whitelist certain servers/domains (such as the company intranet).
Warnings with confirmations that cannot be disabled when loading remote XUL, even when loading XUL from remote HTTP servers is enabled.
Different and distinct window styling for remotely-loaded XUL apps. I'm not sure what form this would take, but perhaps the title bar could include "REMOTE XUL APP" or something.
Disable the ability to load XUL by using Javascript inside a regular (html/xhtml) webpage.
I would like to point out that "Longhorn", Microsoft's XAML-enabled browser/operating system, will be vulnerable to this type of phishing as well, but on a perhaps greater scale, as IE/XAML is "integrated with the OS."
Implementing your application logic as stored procedures has some detrimental side effects.
SPs turn your database into an application server, centralizing things that needn't be, and raising load on that central machine.
SPs invite use of vendor-specific features, and therefore lock-in and loss of portability.
SPs are not typically amenable version control and are maintained outside the rest of your code base.
SPs represent "premature optimization." There may be a time and a place for SPs, but they are used a lot more than needed in many applications. For example, one application at my company has over 1,000 SPs, and quite a number are just wrappers for simple select statements.
Prepared statements and vendor-neutral SQL are the way to go for portability and controllability of the development process. Use SPs judiciously, if at all, and only when there's a highly compelling need to do so(e.g., order of magnitude speedup, etc).
vote Green or some other left-left-wing party if you want to revoke some of these laws
I think a Libertarian would do a better job of repealing a bad law -- and not replacing it with another one -- than the Greens, or any "left left wing" party.
I was once a Mac bigot. Then I got saddled with a PowerMac 9500 and System 7 or 8 something. What a POS that was. I traded it for a P-100. Turns out Windows was a POS too. Argh! Then I found Linux -- Slackware to be exact. Ah, Linux! Sweet Linux!
Then I saw OSX. I got an old beige g3 and slapped 10.1 on it. Mmm, nice, but a little slow. 10.2 came long. Schwing! I bought a Powerbook.
Now I'm back to being a Mac bigot. Out of the Win2k and WinXP machines at work, my WinXP and Linux machines at home (Fedora!), and my Powerbook running 10.3, the Powerbook is, without a doubt, the most pleasant and productive to use.

That's because Ford was trying to make a car his own employees could afford to buy, and black paint was a lot cheaper.
Here they are, richest company on the planet, monopoly in their marketplace, and they aren't satisfied.
It's not about "choice" -- it's about Microsoft.

When there are bugs in a hardware-only solution, how do you patch them? Or do you just burn up during the unscheduled re-entry?
I don't really believe that Longhorn was ever going to be a "complete rewrite". Do you?

Use Bart's PE Windows XP Live CD if you need to muck around with your NTFS filesystems.
I don't do it, but people in the office do. Or try, anyway. And then I get to support them, technically speaking. :)

"NT was 100% new code" ... except, I assume, for all that VMS code that DEC sucessfully sued Microsoft over.

MS-FTM (file transfer manager) is also an ActiveX abortion that requires IE to work at all. Stupid! Stupid!

It would have been a far better product if they had the time and money
... what was that second thing you said?
Yes, if only Microsoft has more time and

How about this?
