Don't get your hopes too high, those with enough wit already know the cost of Windows...Wallmart customers will just think the PC with Windows is just "better" somehow (everyone knows yo get what you pay for).
This is getting annoying...it seems like every odd day there is a study showing something is good for you, and every even day there is one saying exactly the opposite. I have gotten to the point of not trusting any study and going on common sense. Eight hours of simulated killing a day is not good for you, just as eight hours a day of talking about peace, the environment, world good, etc would make you want to kill someone (even if yourself).
What if you could put that watch in a matter replicator (for argument's sake) and have an exact copy of the watch in a matter of seconds, would you still be allowed to return the watch?
I can see how it matters if AutoCAD is not the best tool for the job, but it doesn't matter much if it's more expensive since the companies are saving money by not doing training. AutoCAD has thus sponsored training for them. Would it be better if schools kept using all sorts of software, and changing it every so often? It's better to stick to a package that works and put pressure on the company to implement the changes you require.
I can't seem to find the system requirements anywhere. Is this browser going to be more forgiving on older computers? I doubt it since it still uses XUL, but you never know...
Seriously, is it that hard to have an editor like UltraEdit available in Linux?? And no, VI and EMACS are not like it, they're not that easy out of the box.
and it's because of all of those annoying commercials (Britney Spears, Michael Jackson, that little annoying girl, all the Dew commercials)...I don't remember any commercials from Coke that I hate...too bad I'm addicted to Mountain Dew
It's short, but there is plenty of suspense...did he make a typo, is there a chance mv was linked to some malicious program (e.g. rm), who is observing him save the World? Did I use Preview, or did I manage to screw the format up? You won't know until you see the movie.
Can you smell what the Rock is cooking?

Sorry for the bad wrestling reference (I even hate wrestling), but did anyone else start to smell burning fumes after seeing those images...on a second thought I better check on my Athlon XP
Anyone else feel that it is wrong for the media to cover this story so in depth, and ultimately make money on those that died and their families. I have decided not to watch any coverage. I remember very well what happened. Is any station doing coverage without any comercials? Or at least, is there one that is donating the amount they're making above what they usually do?
Why do they even have to profit directly from the internet?? I always find myself looking up info on products that I end up buying in a brick-and-mortar store. I don't have a high regard toward companies that don't have a presence on the internet and I am unlikely to buy a product from them.

No man, I don't have space for coasters that big :)

Give it up already.
OK, I meant to put some countries whose names started with a 'T' (Tunisia) ... I await your punishment
I hope Fiji, France, and Finland don't form any Armed Revolutionary Forces :)

Sure you can, it's logical for them to use whatever means necessary to get more money as long as they are allowed.

I was anxiously waiting to read about that levitating frog hitting some power line and getting fried...
That background music has got to go...other than that, *stupid pun alert* it looked pretty fly

better not to set them in prefs.js ,but in user.js (create new file if not there) as the settings in the prefs.js file might get overwritten

That's part of the problem...guess not in a major way yet
Prïnce takes the tïme to put an "ï" ïn naïve, but makes us read through all those 2's and 4's because he's too lazy to do a search and replace.
Yeah, but how long will those companies keep buying bogus info for which no company has a use?
