Anyone can sure as hell buy a computer from me, without Windows installed, and I'll charge less than the same system with Windows. Roughly $125 for XP Home and $200 for XP Pro.
My rates to come and work on your systems after I sell them to you don't change based on OS though.
Sounds like an update of "Cosmos", which is mentioned at the beginning of the article. I hope it is. That was one of my most cherished programs when I was a kid. I'd love to see this be carried out in the same spirit.
Maker of switching and networking gear intends to compete with maker of switching and networking gear!
Stop the presses!
Yes Cisco dominates, but 3Com has been trying to win a bigger market share in this arena for many years. They even do *gasp* IP telephony.
I know I'd feel much better if only the blackhats were looking for and exploiting security vulnerabilities.
If the whitehats don't look for them, publish them and give the vendors/developers incentive to do something about it, then any response to an attack is purely reactive.
Welcome to the world where every system is a zombie. In fact, it would soon be duelling zombies. Wouldn't that be great!
Try saving the original link as a text file.
Browse using Windows Explorer (I know, same thing as Internet Explorer...) and attempt to rename the file. Crash-o-rama.
Nice one, Microsoft.
So is there any possible utility of the input type "crash"?
My heart plunged as I read the Slashdot headline. Sheffield was one of the greats. I always looked forward to reading a new short story or novel of his.
Not since Heinlein has there been an author who so successfully pulled off the "SF for teenagers" sub-genre. Sure the plots were re-hashes, or, more charitably, tributes, but darn it they were good clean fun. Well plotted, characters you cared about, and great settings - you can't ask for more than that.

It seems to me these guys are already doing this. Perhaps this is competition?

Where do you think all that "lint" comes from?
I expect "Origins" to devote at least a little screen time to exposing this little-known fact.
Make Carl proud.

Star Trek should be let lie fallow. Ten or fifteen years would be enough. If there's any real interest after that time, it can always be resurrected.
Besides, any continuity problems can be patched with another time travel story or two.
If they tell themselves 12 times a day:
"Linux doesn't exist. Linux doesn't exist...."
It's bound to come true.

So long Doc. I'll miss you.
