Why all the hate, I (and most conservatives) don't hate MM, the Clinton's, Howard "yeargh" Dean, or most other sane liberals, we just think they are wrong, and can prove them wrong on may of their points.
Lobbing a few cruise missles at a tent did jack shit against Al-Queda, Clinton should have invaded the Sudan after the Kobar Towers and/or the embassy bombings, but he was otherwise occupied apparently. The bombing of the Cole should have brought swift retribution, but we got jack shit out of him after that.
HillaryCare would have put us on par with the economically failed socialist regimes of the EU. I find it funny dems are now screaming about deficits now that they are out of power, they borrowed from 1933-1994, now we are paying for their social programs and the intrest on the debt they created, and be damned if we don't get called heartless if we try to scale back some these failed social experiments.
6 of them would do the trick for 1920x1080p TV, laid out in a 3 col by 2 row array. 1 Nvida Quadro NVS 280 (AGP/PCI-E) $147 and 1 Nvidia NVS 400 (PCI) $354 would give you the 6 outputs and then a HDTV card of your choosing ($230 for the MyHD MDP-120), the PC can be any MicroATX or larger with 2 PCI slots + 1 AGP/PCI-E, its just a matter of how many HDD's you want for PVRing from that box.
I wasn't making a value judgement there, but if NCSA had been allowed to progress with the original netscape's team still there, it might not have had to travel the wilderness of NS 2, 3, and 4 to get back to solid standards compliant browser that mozilla and its decendants are, and IE would have had a much better base to build from.
In the begining there was NCSA and its child mosaic, and all was good, but Marc got greedy and formed Netscape 1.0 from Mosaic and made lots of money
And lo, BillG had released windows 4.0 to the world, known as 95, but it had not a browser, so it purchased spyglass, who had built another browser based on mosaic, this abomination was internet explorer 1 and it sucked
And internet explorer 2 sucked as well, but 3 was a decent browser that had basic support for CSS and what we call ActiveX today
Netscape 2 and 3 were giants, but Netscape 4 and IE 4 were of equal strength, and then AOL purchased Netscape.
Netscape began to decline as it fell behind, IE5 and 5.5 were much faster the 4.5 and 4.7 of netscape, but there was a new day dawning, AOL saw fit to release the preliminary code of Netscape 5 to the world.
But this code did suck very much, so the mozilla foundation, with help of many netscape employees began writing a browser essentially from scratch
this took time and IE got faster, but people started using its holes to exploit windows boxes around the globe
And lo Mozilla starting releasing builds, called milestones, and some were good and some were evil, but they became stronger, until netscape took one of the milestones and released netscape 6.
And it was good, but people had forgotten about netscape, so they ignored it
And mozilla worked on until it released 1.0 and people celebrated
And Netscape released 7.0, which was Mozilla 1.0 with some of the features turned off, and some people switched fleeing the pestilence following internet explorer.
And mozilla toiled away until 1.4, and netscape took of this and released netscape 7.1
Now some in the mozilla community wanted to build a new browser that was lighter than Mozilla, ready to do battle with Microsoft, and they called themselves phoenix, but the could not use that name due to copyright
So they changed their name to firebird, but they could not use that name either
So they settled on firefox, but as they kept changing their name, they were releasing very good web browsers
And mozilla kept working until 1.7 came, and netscape released 7.2, and firefox synced their trunk to the mozilla 1.7 branch.
And development began quickly on firefox, through 0.7, 0.8, and 0.9, until 1.0 came, and 20 million downloaded it.
AOL saw the favor firefox had with the people and coveted it, so they made a beta based on Firefox, and it was ok.
And now Netscape is poined to release netscape 8 which is really Firefox 1.0, but mozilla is still working on 1.8 and IE is going nowhere.

All you "know" at that point in the OT is that Vader was Obi-Wan's pupil who also murdered Daddy Skywalker. It isn't a direct spoiler if you haven't seen the rest of TESB or ROTJ.
That's like saying the "he's our last hope, no there is another" scene in TESB is a dead giveaway to Leia being Luke's sister, it could have been Chewbacca that was the last hope for all we knew at the time.
Where in the U.S. Constitution does it say congress must provide educational services? Alsom, why am I being taxed at the local and state level to fund education?
Let's take a look at who the democrats have nominated for president over my lifetime.
Carter -- Asswipe, has improved a little, but a still cowardly asswipe with a nobel prize.
Mondale -- Asswipe
Dukakis -- Asswipe
Clinton -- Didn't sound like an asswipe on the trail, wife and his taste in women made up for it once elected
Gore -- Wooden asswipe
Kerry -- Not much to chose from in the primaries, I can respect Dean though, he really believes European style socialism works and is attempting to sell it to us, the rest of them know it doesn't work.
The republican's in that era, for better or worse, have sold canidates who have followed pretty close to what you expect, low taxes, no abortions, strong military , etc. If you buy into it, you can pull the lever happily, if you don't, you are convinced by the liberals that the election of a republican means the end of the world.
Of course, I voted libertarian in 04 b/c I knew I was in a solid "red" state.
The IBM linux ads with the boy "assimilating" knowledge were great, unfortunately, it is kind of pointless if you don't know what linux is. Sorry, couldn't find any copies of the video, but it was amazing.

The size of the IRS will be drastically reduced under fairtax, instead of having to review 100-200 million personal tax returns a year plus business returns, they have to review receipts of however many retail business exist, a drastically smaller number. Considering the fact that 45 states already have retail sales taxes (and the enforcements arms collecting RST's entail) it is a solveable problem.
True but if the tax rates become obvious to some who don't pay fed income tax, they might start pressuring their congresscritters to scale back the size of government, pay back the national debt and finally cut taxes.
Support Fair Tax, a National Retail Sales tax (30% on new purchases). It replaces your fed income, social security, medi*, and estate taxes. It even has a rebate for your taxes up to the poverty line folks, it makes sense, put H&R block and the IRS out of business forever.
No, but it has taken until XP SP2 to really sound the 16-Bit Windows death knell, try installing the LucasArts Tie Fighter/X-Wing series games on an XP SP2 box, it finally fails, even SP1 could be coaxed into making them work.
You must not be a Solaris or FreeBSD user, with a mini forth interpreter as the "bios", hell, the new suns with ALOM have a mini linux/ppc os for management when the only connectivity between the box and the world are the power cord and a cat-5 to the management port.

It would be practical for large format setups, 100+ inch screens and such, for your average home user it is overkill.

Except for the fact that Hollywood donates twice as much to democrats, you pegged that one pretty well.
There are asswipes from both sides of the aisle, at least those of us on the right recognize that fact.
Yep, that's them.
