big difference between the work i do and the work that he's talking about it. It is nice for a little while and fun for a few hours here are there. But 14 hours of this type of work very few people could tolerate let alone enjoy nowadays(including myself)
>Accenture has also teamed with Microsoft... I guess you get the picture.
No not really.
Good gads, just because MS makes some bad software and seems to bend the law doesn't mean MS is realted to this is any way. MS has teamed with virtually ever tech company at one time or another.
oh brother, do you have any idea how much work would be involved in "old world" traditions?
Would you be willing to sacrifice 14 hours a day just to have food, clothes, and a warm place to sleep. Forsaking TV, computers, phones, everything else?
I think not. Sure they don't mean you know anything. Everybody has meet a MCSE who is utterly clueless, but they do help your resume move to the top of the stack.
Let's be honest most people only get certifications to get a better job. That and your employer pays you to get one.
My company has had dealing with Microsoft, yet never had a sale. The reason:
We commonly sell source code to our customers but they usually are limited to a specific product family.
Everytime we deal with them they will not agree the code will turn up in other areas of microsoft, which we deem unacceptable and the deal is off. In our area, MS is not important so it's not a big deal.
I haven't read the article but i wonder how many times, others business "have" to deal with MS overlook things like the above, realize they have been screwed and then sue. Or get greedy for the MS deal, get screwed and then sue. Or maybe just plained got screwed by ole MS.
Or maybe it's all over my head and just business as usual. Yeah that's probably it.
I am told that they really pushed hot Dr Pepper as a replacement for coffee back in the 50's 60's or 70's(Can't Remember). You could also add a little lemon to it. I tried it once unique taste. Maybe some of you old timers remember this.
No kidding. I am not real familiar with all the different window managers. I always thought that fvwm2 was one of the smaller quicker ones. Thanks for the tip.
I have some older computers(486/133mHZ - pentium/166) I am looking for opinions. I want to create simple X-terminals(fvwm2 probably), which dist is the best.
OK there was a NES game that I played called Solomon's Key or something like that. Did anyone else play this game, it turned out to be one of my favorites.

What is the definition of beating tetris, and why is it impossible or improbable?

Stop your trolling.
So wallets will tin foil surrounding them would be popular? Better start on my marketing plan now.

Maybe, but i think very few would.
hmmm... good point

Of course as soon as a virus comes out of these filetypes, people will stop opening them up pretty quickly.
Actually it is not as trivial as it sounded. Many people right or wrong feel this way, and some folks(myself included) would like it changed.
:-)
I think the guy is cute, but it turns folks off.
I doubt it would ever happen.
I do have suggestions if anyone ever wanted to hear them though.
I am getting a kick out of all these..
Back in my day i pay $1,000 for a 100MB hard drive
Oh yeah that's nothing my company paid $15,000 for two 20MB hard drives the size of a dishwasher.
That's nothing, I paid....
I guess it the next generations version of:
I walked 10 miles in the snow to school, both ways. And I was happy dang it!
what are you talking about?
your rant has nothing to do with the $1/TB statement.
leave now

Why would SUN and HP have to release a version of linux on their high-end systems?
SUN cost for Solaris wouldn't be higher than SGI to port Linux to their systems.
It would seem that people producing high-end systems costs would go down, using a no-cost license fee os like Linux.
OK that's pretty funny. Thanks for the tip!
Why would I want to use Pike?
It's fast(for scripting language)
It's OOP's.
It's multi-platform.
Anything else?
Does it excel at any one area or is it just better(why?) than the other scripting language out there.
Or was this just a college project and they wanted to share?
Not trying to troll here, just curious
The above is one small reason I pay with cash. The other big reason it that I hate credit companies and find it helps my budget to not use cc's.

What products are better than outlook?
I would like an intergrated e-mail, calender, task list, etc program that could comm with my palm.
I couldn't find any than runs on Windows, except for Outlook.
If message has a '!' in the title, delete.
Try Hot Dr. Pepper!

>Btw, if your computers are a bit slow, you can buy new faster CPUs to stick in them for literally a couple of dollars.
Not really as I would have to swap motherboards also on most of them.
Thanks for the suggestions

Ever even hear of it?
Terminals is what he's talking about.
Think "Hunt the wumpus"
OK I went to the site. I am going to assume that the website is satire. Please tell me I am correct.
