Wouldn't this be a step backwards? Every computer literate person I know, types a lot faster, then they could write. I can understand a pen based interface for Pocket PC's and Palms, where space is an issue, but there's really no good substitute for a decent keyboard.
The NT codebase has lots to do with the 9x codebase.. You think they started from scratch? This is Microsoft we're talking about.. They didn't even code DOS, or Internet Explorer, from scratch..
Windows NT 3.x's GUI was the same exact GUI used in the Windows 3.x DOS operating systems..
The NT4.x GUI was based off Windows 95, and the Windows 2000 GUI was based off Windows 98/98SE.. It's pretty obvious to see this, considering each release of NT up until XP, had every feature from the 9x version before it.
Considering NT and 9x are, for the most part, are compatible with each other..
Every single one of you who say 'I'd burn it' or 'Delete it' etc.. You say that now.. But if you actually had the source.. I have no doubt, that you'd look through it many times over..
I know I sure would.. I may not like Windows, but I'm sure as hell curious on how it works.. Considering Windows has been in development since 1985.. That's 17 years of development. Not many programs/operating systems, including Linux, have that behind them.
We're not even up to 100 comments, and the site's been Slashdotted.. Anyone have a copy of the results? I'd love to see if the Athlon kicked the Pentium 4 into the ground..
Maybe SONICblue won't go after Tivo for royalties..
After all, Tivo has some patents of thier own.. Maybe the two companies will just ignore each other, and go for the smaller fish (Are there any other DVR companies besides these two?)
Who knows? Stranger things have happened..

Well, as soon as I pickup this plugin, I can finally prove that Yahoo is a warez site, and flood 'FAST' with Yahoo pages..
And no, I don't have a life, it's blantly obvious.
Also known as a Distributed Denial of Service attack.. And they say 'hackers' are the problem.. Ha!

Can anyone truthfully say they didn't see this coming?
