No, they wouldn't do that. Why would they? Why would they make the music available where you're not going to see the ads, or the links to buy the artist's music? They're a business... why would they bypass the way they make money?
Vivendi owns them, and the future of both services is very much in doubt with the impending sell off of Vivendi assets. I don't care about MP3.com, but I'll miss Emusic.
And clearly you have no idea how many machines ran OS/2. Linux is on thousands of web servers now, but OS/2 ran tens of thousands of ATM's, which have only recently been converted. OS/2 was on many more desktops than Linux is now.
Those are for desktop operating systems only.
BTW, the extensions were announced and heavily covered in the media back in February. "Apparently" announced? Where have you people been?
Not at all. We have a Windows 95 machine that runs automated tasks that is rebooted 2 or 3 times a year. Been running for 5 years. Last time it was rebooted was around New Years.
I agree. If we were talking about logging where or when I drive my car, I'd be screaming bloddy murder. But logging how I drive my car is perfectly reasonable.
I've read that it is no longer possible to build another shuttle, the facilities no longer exist. You would have to ramp up the production facility from scratch, something they didn't have to do to replace Challenger.
What bothers me about the Apple ads is if all these people are switching to Macs, why is Apple's market share not growing? At 4% Apple is simply irrelevant.
Because you own those products. You do not own software (at least not software you didn't write), you own a license to use it. Software is not just another product.
I work at a medium sized US bank, and we used to use OS/2 on some mission critical machines as well as a server inside our AS/400. For the last two years, everytime we called IBM for support, the first thing they wanted to know was when we were going to convert to Windows NT. On the AS/400, that conversion has now been forced on us because with the latest version of OS/400, running Warp Server is no longer supported.
If IBM is still supporting OS/2, they hide it well.

3 guesses what kind of driver you are. I don't worry about incriminating myself. I don't have to...

How long are computer books useful these days?
How does punishing people who commit crimes reduce our civil liberties?

And make sure it's really high pitched to get them good and pissed off...
Read your message again and you'll see (if you have 50 cents worth of brains) you just proved his point.
it's like deja vu all over again!

IBM does not own or control Lexmark. Lexmark was spun off from IBM, and is today a fully independant company.
