  2. Proof that Cassini can see Cleary now,. on Cassini Can See Cleary Now · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Here are some picures of Cleary taken by Cassini just yesterday. Good, aren't they?

    And if the government hasn't got the guts to do a recall, while MS have the morals to send everyone, free of charge, a CD containing a copy of the fixed code (if they fix it).

    windowsupdate is all very well (actually, it isn't) but having something physical arrive in the mail might make more people install the fixes.

  6. Re:Virus companies need the virus makers on Targeted Worm Hits Kazaa's Network · · Score: 2, Insightful

  7. Re:One hitch on Personal Finance Software for Unix? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    see they're using the word 'Druid' instead of 'Wizard'

    And that is why free software is failing on the desktop; if each package uses different terms for the same functionality is it any wonder that users are put off.

    Bitch about Microsoft, logo-requirements and usability guidelines all you like, but if software written to those standards is usable by people without much computer knowledge then it is going to be used.

  8. Re:reception in buildings on Verizon's Wireless Road Warriors · · Score: 1

    You don't need wireless in a building; buildings have land-lines.

    QED.

    Verizon's feedback form is Here (Nb. URL contains a ZIP code - replace it with your own).

    Select "I have a question about Network/Coverage" as the subject
    and "How do I report a network service or coverage issue?" as the question.
