A mobile phone (aka cellphone), which is charged at normal landline rates in your nominated home cell. In other cells, it's a normal mobile phone, charged at mobile rates. Two different numbers.
It's my understanding that Microsoft do still licence their source code to Citrix. I'm unclear regarding the business arrangements. You need source code to build products such as MetaFrame or Terminal Server.
While MSDN does cost lots of money, much of it is available for free at the Microsoft web site.
Operating systems ship with thousands of bugs. Some reasons:
Applications often end up relying on operating system bugs. Sometimes this is done intentionally to improve performance. Documentation might say "don't do this", but in the real world making the application better wins out. This means that bugs can never be fixed without breaking backwards compatibility.
Stabilising such a large piece of software will inevitably lead to some modules being in a rotten state. From the perspective of the stability of the entire system, it's easier to hack a few client modules than fix the bug in the server module and potentially break all the client modules.
At some point in time, you need to ship the product. After critical bugs, there are many minor bugs which could be fixed if time permits. But the marketplace prefers software now rather than the same software with trivial changes in six months.
First, barbecued prawns (or shrimp as you call them) is an dish invented for TV ads. Here in Sydney, if we barbecue seafood, it's typically Salmon cutlets, or octopus in a chili sauce (yum yum).
The best icon would be the southern cross, as expressed on the Eureka flag:
Soft-ICE from NuMega technologies is the only tool you need for reverse engineering under Windows.
Reverse engineering is inspecting how existing software works, typically so that you can change it in some manner, usually by integrating your software.
Orange are providing a "wireless home phone".

Mozilla will *not* use native widgets for any OS.
This means no Win32, MacOS or GTK widgets.
This decision was made early in the development of Mozilla, to allow portable UIs. Without this decision, Mozilla would have been Win32-only.
Australian and UK DVDs use PAL, which has more pixels and therefore better picture quality than American DVDs.
Australian prices are much better than the UK.
But sometimes the American DVD has more extras, which would outweigh the improved picture quality.
To compare American and Australian DVDs, see:

After commenting code, you should rewrite it so the comment is no longer needed. Embed the semantic content into the source code. This will fix bugs.
// got another special foo
Sample:
foo++;
turns into
numSpecialFoo++;
Refactoring requires inexpensive testing.
When refactoring, you run unit tests. To finalize a refactoring, you must run a full test suite on the entire product.
This is all part of ExtremeProgramming.
