The obvious answer is because first you have the hit of decompressing, and then you are left traversing a potentially huge file keeping track of end tags or spaces or whatever. That's why.
I know that I'm going to get modded down again for asking, but do you have a web cam? Will you please post its address. In the case that you don't have one, why don't you tell us where you were last night, between the hours of 6.00pm and 4.00am. Please include details of anyone you spoke to, in case they are known drug dealers/terrorist/etc. Thank you. Oh, you might like to register a nick, or uncheck your post anonymously option because I'm sure you haven't done anything wrong.
If you are planning to steal all the television in the world, remember you still have to have time to watch it, and for each day you need to dedicate 3 years, and even here on slashdot there can't be that many people with so little social life.
But I fear that the real reason for doing this is to record all the citizens of a city and keep it and all your personal habits indefinitely, and so I suggest that nobody here answers the question - you may find it bites you later.

If it had I would laugh my arse off, but as it is I have to wonder if the person at Microsoft was really thinking of the "Monkey" bars when he chose that keyword.
Thanks for letting us know about your friends, but having read the article, we already knew that Netscape 6 worked. Ok 6.1, works, but I can't believe your friends would use anything older.
Because MSN in Brazil which I presume has the same new look renders fine. In Mozilla, at least. Depending on your browser you'll see different things, see The Register for more info.
So what you are saying is that although you are too important to have time to read the comments yourself, you still want to make the rest of us, who like to see all the comments, suffer your redundant posts, a post so mindnumbingly banal that it had already been covered by everyone else who has posted.
And now some idiot moderator, who is obviously viewing the page at (+1, newest first) thinks that you have said something that nobody else has thought of, despite the rest of the posts in this story, and there being precisely two previous slashdot articles of the same matter - a fact that the chap who answered you informed you, but was rewarded with sweet f.a.
Under the terms of the Telecommunication Monitoring Regulation, Internet service providers do not have to especially monitor backbones or surfers who dial in to the Internet using a modem or ISDN. Providers of Leased lines and other broad band connections, such as DSL and cable are obliged to install expensive interceptive boxes which may cost several million marks.
Does this mean that if I want to remain hidden I just have to dial up? Isn't that just the tiniest of loop holes?
I suppose that must be why people hacked their I-Openers to be used as networkable small desktops rather than dedicated internet appliances. Do you have any more pearls of wisdom you would like to share with us?

A quick google search for "double slits" gave me this
How is that prediction any different to what Geocities did back in '98?

If Bill Gates wants me to document his life, he can pay me. But while we negotiate my fee, have a read of this.
Correct. And that is why it should be written Unix, not UNIX.
What is UNIX an acronym of?
He might have made himself a billionaire, but he was brought into the world with more wealth than the collective slashdot readership (including ESR).
No they weren't. They were at the playground, apparently in front of some monkey bars.
There have been dozens of reports that it works, not least IN THE FUCKING ARTICLE.
I don't know, there's a page on msn for everybodies interests
PS. Those links work fine in mozilla.
As the article says. Netscape 6.1 works. Mozilla 0.whatever doesn't.
Note to moderators: -1 Redundant, not +1 Informative.
Another note, things are NOT informative if they are mentioned in the damned article. Thank you.

So what do you expect from a "networkable small desktop" that neither your Iopener nor an eMachine, or even an Apple Cube provide?
Plus just to remind you, one and two. The former being my first ever post, and the latter being my only other attempt. So there.
Maybe while he's at it, he could also provide a mechanism that corrects "grammer" to "grammar" automatically to help reduce pot kettle black syndrome.
First fist post prost, but it won't count as this is only the shitty yro section.
Shit. That damn 2 minute wait, but that can't stop.... Captain Pedantic

If that doesn't get you boiling could you at least act as a grammar falangist instead?
