TeleSoft/Alsys/Aonix have had, for quite some time, a language called D that is used to describe the operation of events and manage dialogs (D = dialog) in TeleUSE. Its been around for 10 years, so so.
I would think Omni would wait until a more stable (non-beta) release is produced before changing its own browser's direction.
I've played with Safari and the biggest "Beta" issue that I have noticed is in the supporting features. The cookie management is rather crude (all/none/self are the only choices), but it does an excellent (and FAST) job of rendering pages. I would love to have my copy of OmniWeb be based on this code.
...they didn't release any official Windows software for it, nor do they support it.
Actually, Apple did release "official Windows software" for the iPod and it is supported.
The really nice thing is being able to plug the iPod into a Mac, transfer files to the iPod, then plug it into a PC and transfer files from the iPod. It is this kind of flexability that made be buy the Windows version , even though my primary machine is a Mac.
Any company worth its salt will require the contractor to sign over any ownership as a term of the contract. The reason for this is that along with the ownership of the product comes liability. Perhaps, if you were willing to accept all liability for the defects in your software...
Actually, the key phrase is "as high as," which is pretty open ended. By choosing the suggested retail price over the wholesale price over the pirate's price they can generate three very different numbers. Heck, they could have claimed "as high as 900 million" if they tried hard enough.
Considering the time of night that Firefly is being shown (7:00 Central), I can understand it. Considering that the show really isn't meant for kids, it is a bit too early. I think they would be getting better ratings if they were to exchange time slots with John Doe (or create a time slot after the current John Doe time).
This also looks as if it is being priced as a botique item. It should be considered a good thing that a DivX enabled DVD player is priced at a premium, it means that they feel the DivX format adds quite a bit of value to the player. Just remember, MS had to pay vendors to add their format to the players.
While in college, we did our assembly programming on an LSI-11 single board computer. Whenever you mistyped a command it gave you the most helpful of all error messages: What?
I realize that you're being funny, but Windows actually uses a 64 bit date/time structure, and has since NT 3.1. We're going to need to deal with the Y5G bug before the Windows clock rolls over.
Actually, NT 4 had a Y2K problem. It wasn't until SP5 that it was fixed.
Garbage collection is nothing more, nothing less than pointer manipulation.
I beg to differ on this point, garbage collection is a bit more complex. In simpler languages (C) you will have to periodically perform a memory de-fragmentation step, while more complicated languages (Java, python) may have to figure out which parts of memory are no longer needed and THEN go through the de-fragmentation step. This can take a laaaaarge (unbounded) amount time.
As far as hiding pointers being an insult to the intelligence of the "average" programmer, try doing a depth-first traversal of a B-tree without resorting to recursion. Many of the better programmers that I know have problems with this one. Hiding pointers behind a language supported interface (class, generic, etc.) is a Very Good Thing (tm).
There is a way to start OSXVNC at startup, in such a way as allowing you to see the login screen from the remote computer. Unfortunately, the instructions were on www.osxvnc.com. I would mail the current maintainer for information. Since the download address is homepage.mac.com/muhaque, I wold assume that the email address would me muhaque@mac.com.

Truely wonderful.

Please remember that this is an alpha release. I would expect a production release to properly manage (most of) then Aqua UI guidelines.

Give me a list of CDs and DVDs being copied and I'd be glad to.

This was best described in "The Princess Bride" with the definition of "To the pain."

My first though, based on the article title was "Well of course it was a brief flight, Armadillos can't fly!"
Sometimes I get this eerie feeling that there are PEOPLE watching ME!
They are. Could you move your head a bit, your blocking the TV. A little bit more. Faaarther. There! Thanks.
Or, good old HTML?

I am glad to see that I can finally get a DVD player that supports DivX. Now I would love to find a PVR that supports the format (come on TiVo).

It looks like the gotdotnet web site had died. You'd think that MS could put up a site that could handle a little slashdotting.
