Even on public sites, why do people use http at all? Except for the fee for a certificate, what's the holdup? There seems to be a sense of importance that comes with "secure" transactions that keeps people away. Am I just crazy or is there a good reason for not having secured channels for everything, since it's so darn easy to use?
I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to patents and such, so by "method" do they allow for others to produce their own methods, or are they patenting the idea of a message board in regards to an item?
Fox Sports has ordered a number of the mic'ed balls in order to promote its new "Sounds of the Game" portion of its MLB coverage. Hear the deafing sound of the bat cracking against a homerun ball, then listen to the fans fight over said ball.
The "desktop" metaphor implies that the ui should be as configurable as a desktop. Stable drawers full of crap, movable inbox full of crap, etc.
The user should be able to do whatever it takes to work better. As for the applications, I think this holds true too, to a lesser extent.
Very many tools seem to duplicate the workspace idea (Macromedia's MX suite comes to mind) so they should be configurable (to me, at least), but applications which don't replicate the workspace (e.g. a file manager, a text editor) shouldn't be user-configurable any more than an ink pen should be.
is that the majority of people they will find will be switching from Mac OS 9 or before. If they have ads where people start talking about pre OSX macs, apple can point that out in their next round of ads, probably in print, cuz they seem to be more offensive-minded in print, IMHO.
Software stores will start acting more like car dealerships. An associate will walk you through the EULA and get you to sign it before you get to take home your purchase. It will become an even bigger hassle as licenses get longer. People will yearn for the old days, when no one really cared about buying software. Who wants to buy a game for Jimmy when you have to sit through an hour of "you do realize the consequences of your actions..." crap.

seeing as their olden days policies are a good reason for the amount of spam.
So, what you're trying to say is "China wants to mine the moon." Am I getting you right? Wasn't sure. ;)
Cuz they sound just like Sega.

seeing as how noone's pointed this out, you forgot the body text to the article...
Hold on, everybody's pointed that out. Oh well.

The better you know what's out there to use, the better the chance of recognizing what you're up against.

Microsoft is only looking for more ways to slow Windows down so you'll need faster computers.
Or else the submitter was trying to prove that editors DON'T read any articles to see if they are accurate.
Edison and Einstein were accidents, too.

And we really can use firewire to replace scsi.

or maybe I'm just being bitter and negative...
the scientists simply blushed and started giggling madly...
Oh, you were the one storming out of the Apple Store ;)
Does anyone know where I can find a transcript of today's press conference? Thanks in advance.
I'd like a Neo-mode. One where you can dodge bullets yet at the same time not jerk around too much.
yet I'm so jealous.
As we all know, for Windows to succeed on the desktop, it needs to ramp up compatibility with the current best desktop so it may gain marketshare ;)

"Novel" here means "unsellable".
