It absolutly, 100% does not replace keywords with links. Do us all a favor and visit the spybot homepage. Or perhaps you mean Autolink from the google toolbar? Which you have have installed, and to click?
Since when has your grandma cared about how good you archive tool is? Can you double click it? Does it have the same look and feel as what she's used to? Then the avg. dumb user is happy. That's who we're talking about.
Is all of slashdot completely retarded this morning? No one confused Java and Javascript as the same thing. They mearly compared the big picture of AJAX and Java, which is portable clientside applications.
Oh, and "There is one thing for sure though... nothing will finally deliver what Java promised. It's dead Jim. JavaSCRIPT on the other hand..." So, you're saying Javascript on the other hand... may fill that promise? Like the summary says? =D Stop coming to Slashdot please.
What are you talking about? Java promised portable client side web applications, applets. They've been slow to catch on at best, and now AJAX has allowed Javascript to be used for portable client side web applications. Think before you speak, this sounds like the knee-jerk response a Highschool teacher tells the website design class. A response which does not belong here.
Two things wrong here. First, wrong market. That's hardcore gamers paying that, not the mass market this will be oriented to. Second, Nintendo doesn't see that $200, $150 or $20, so that doesn't effect their pricing. And don't say "yea it does! because people obviously pay it!" because that will fly for maybe 1 out of every 100 potential buyers. Meeting the true market price is more important.
I know, as soon as the new version of Linux comes out, I shell out a good $99 for a new license. Wait..

Never actually owning the game, just renting it via monthly fees? Nixed that, since there is no monthly fees.
While I agree this is great, the fees do NOT affect ownership of the game. Meaning, they pull the servers off line, you're SOL. You're left with a non-functional (mostly) product. Just like EQ and WoW, or any other game. This stems from the ownership of just a client, and no content.
I should also add, I do this with movies I rent for "free", as I get 2 coupons a month with my blockbuster online subcription (worth every dollar). I think the cost of rental is factored in, so maybe I even get a few bucks off?
Yea, just keep it. I've done this, but it's much funner for older titles. They'll bill you out at a used rate, I got one DVD for $3, and another for $8. There were no issues with the media, and movies I liked. Auto-billed and everything.
Thanks for the information, I know I was off topic, and damn near trollish(and I was AC because I didn't bother logging in, wasn't at home), but it's good to figure out what was going on. I'm admittedly very new to CLR, and aspects of managed C++, especially this emerging stuff.
I was simply posting my experience with it. I couldn't even compile one of Microsoft's examples from MSDN that worked fine in 2003. If you get a chance, try to compile the Socket class example. It's the one that choked and died on me. Don't take my word for it.
Why would I post anonymously? I just didn't bother logging in before, but I wanted to get notifications on replies. I'm actually interesting in what changed by removing.NET from the name? You say it's not inconsequential? Anf that last sentence made no sense to me. For fogive my ignorance.

Your title is cute, since slashdot IS a self proclaimed news blog.
I meant this post actually. Took them long enough to fix it.
Funny that the parent used a microsoft piece of software as an example huh?
Or don't use a browser to do critical system processes like full system updating/patching?

We're talking about dumb users. They don't care about alternatives. They care that they can double click it easily.
I don't know if you're being sarcastic, but every single Windows XP machine can open a zip as a Compressed Folder _out of the box_

Maybe she wanted them made of this stuff?
If they ripped off content, I'd be upset. But they didn't, so get over it.

Hahaha. I hadn't even noticed, that's rich. I wish I had mod points.
Then now what I see in what you say is, to use a "safe" email client, you must replace your computer? =O

I preordered, so I've been playing since lastnight (prerelease event). It's been pretty fun so far. And I should mention I'm an avid WoW player ;)
My Necromancer Dancing (xvid,added audio) or no audio. I know the framerate seems a bit jumpy, I wanna do a better recording.

So your argument has no substance or actual effect on the conversation? Cool.
