Yea, they will map.xml to m$ word and whenever you click on one instead of parsing it to see what app it is m$ word will just say your document is corrupted.
Why not? Its what they did with Java and got no punishment for it. Its what they do with HTML...
They do this kind of sh!t at my company all the time. Its fine with its the quarlerly financials and its a couple of pages. But the "Tear down of Toyota Avalon at 2:00pm" crap is nuts. I have to open a seperate program to read simple text...
Sorry to bust your bubble. Most big corporations have intelligent technicians. However, the message gets lost somewhere between tech and management.
I am sure managements response to this letter was to start an 'investigation team.' Or send the techs to a '7 habits' seminar or 5S, QS9000, pokeyoke...
Years later nothing has changed I assure you. They are still using Windows Servers no?
How will it read the 'current user(s)' favorites? How will it save its cache to the current users documents and settings? How can it store its history, etc...
Any 'user' program will need at least the privledges of the current user. the OS can never know what the program will need to do so best to let it do what ever the user wants it to do.
I personally would be surprised if IE ran only with current user privledges. Its trying to be so smart and do so much within the OS that it more than likely is running at a higher privledge that you are:D
Don't you know that as long as m$ has world domination the US has free spy OSes on other governments desktops? Their is no way the US can slip spy code into OSS because anybody would see it.
You need to look at the bigger picture. withough m$ the US could loose its biggest spy edge.
I thought more pieces would have more surface area. More surface area would produce more friction traveling through the atmosphere. More friction would create more heat and thus be able to burn up asteroids that would otherwise not totally burn in the atmosphere.
You are wrong. If the mail server is open all you have to do is point Outlook Express at it, and the mail server will be listed as the ORIGINATION point. You can fake your own address, but the server will typically put its true address on it.
Its easy to find a forged header. The IP addresses can not be forged but the names can be. So if the original servers name does not match its IP address, then its forged. I only consider email spam if this is the case. and I report it to the email server owner. Else I just go at the originator of the email.
That is simply incorrect. Not only do I have a multiprocessor system but I have a masters in that area. so what you take for obvious is false.
"far more responsive"? Why if I may ask? There is no reason why a multiprocessor system should feel "far more responsive" than a significantly faster uniprocessor system.
This as you describe it will be fantastically complicated. My professor in school's 'thing' was making a compiler to automatically multithread a program. It was wildly complicated. Its tough enough to efficiently use multiple threads. It will be even moreso of you have to consider the types of instructions the thread is running.
I don't think many apps will be designed for this because any app thats processor intensive will tend to get the whole processor anyway. For instance, a server typically has just 1 job.
Nice technology, but it seems a little costly and inefficient to use. Heck they don't even want to make 64-bit conversions...
Quite simply I dont think they have the range to be a "patrol" device. So this rules out police and rangers and postal workers, etc.
Unless their are battery exchange spots at random locations. Or perhaps do like the AirForce and have the golf carts carry the spare batteries in the field...
Lean forward how much? This in itself will require a sense of balance. Without one you will be speeding up and slowing down all of the time.
Its not going to balance for you, but will take your balance queues and turn them into motion. If you are not giving the proper queues then like an earlier poster suggested...
mow through 10 pedestrains and end up under a cab.
ebay pulled my auction when I explained to bidders I would charge an extra fee for anyone seeking to use a credit card with paypal since pp charges me an extra fee.
I thought that was BS. They shouldnt be charging me an extra fee.
Ebay does not support extra fees, but advised me to offer a 'discount';) to those who pay with cash.
Gotta love that. 'twas an easy fix if they hadnt waited till the last hour to inform me. I had to redo the whole auction.

Why the detailed explanation? Quite simply nothing is free.
If your paying for CC but not for cash or check they are simply gouging you on the CC fees.
I know everyone is gushing over this as if its a good idea. Just look deeper. Look at whats happening today and you can see what will happen in the future. Let me help you.
1. servers in the kids.us domain immediately come under attack by crackers hell bent on inserting pr0n into those sites.
2. Parents attempt to sue Neustar.
3. Supreme court rules they cannot be sued and complaintants must sue the US Government (which one cannot legally sue)
4. Parents turn their fury to the individual server administrators.
5. Administrators can not keep up with all the bugs in the software and request help or protection from the us government.
6. FUD ensues.
7. White house demands new Cyber Terrorism laws.
8. DHD creates new Cyber Terrorism division.
9. more freedoms shot down in the name of "the children."
You can divise any scenario you like. The one common thread is that these servers will be major targets for crackers and they will succeed time and time again.
OF course spam that comes from Korea and China originates in the US anyway. Those Asians just dont know how to lock their servers down, but they are certainly not getting money for it and if anything loosing due to the bandwidth. Imagine if your mail server all the sudden seemed to stop working for 30 minutes but was actually sending out 100,000s emails from America back too America. I'd be pissed.
Remember. I never visit Korean or Chinese websites, so its not them stealing my email address...
I have duals just because...But I recognize their is no benefit whatsoever for the average user.
Better to get a faster single when one is available. Dual is for when the fastest single is not fast enough...The bp6 was an anamoly. I don't think that will happen again.
personally I am not even seeking to get dual XPs...
You contradict yourself. You say you wish AMD could keep up with intel, then you mention that not many apps use both CPUs (and thus hyperthreading) effectively.
I think AMD realizes that multiprocessing is not something the average user will ever benefit from. But they are falling behind in the marketing department on this one.

I have not seen a DVD with more that 4 hours of video yet. I live at least 24 hours per day.
I dont know what they are talking about, but they will never come close to the storage capacity of THE BRAIN.
I can almost hear God laughing.

His reasoning has been proven world wide.

Sorry. In America when one says "my company" he is typically referring to the one he works for, not the one he owns :D
Of course I do not support the shipping of jobs that are currently American, overseas.
In Japan radiation detectors are banned. Make of that what you will.
Nobody's writing bugs for win95 anymore. That stopped in well...95 ;)
As for viruses. Most hackers have upgraded to XP anyway.
I dont believe it requires any OS intervention other that the support of multiprocessors. XP and Linux and win2k already support this.
I feel strongly that its 90% hype. the 10% just allows them to get away with it.
They could...But do you think that is what is really gonig on?
Are you saying the majority of your spam is in korean? is even half?
