The way I understand it (and of course I could be wrong), this would be a Linux bootloader, that would only be able to load Linux, therefore making it no more dangerous to microsoft than any other Linux PC. People would still buy the games, because the bootloader would not make it drastically easier to pirate them.
Hell, VNC runs on (practically) everything! I realize that VNC and Terminal Server are rather different beasts, but they could be used to accomplish apporximately the same thing. So the limitation is obviously not the existing technology.
Where I work, this automatic sharing of the C drive is considered a usefull feature, it allows desktop support personal access to the hard drive remotely. I'm not sure that's really a good thing, however.
This isn't exactly consumer anti-spam software anyway, unless you are a consumer running an SMTP server. The idea is that it slows down the spammer, and the few odd false positives that get slowed down as well should be relatively insignificant. So, even if it misses some spam and classifies a very small amount of non-spam as spam, it could still do the job because it will still make it harder for the spammer to spam.
I have heard "hoover" used as a verb (as in "I'm going to hoover the living room floor") but not kleenex (nobody says "I'm going to kleenex my nose"). I think the phenomenon to which they were referring was that in which a brand name becomes a common word.
While many complaints are directed against microsoft's technology, I think many more people take issue with their business practices. So, creating an open source implementation of a good technology wouldn't be hypocrisy.
"The first generation"? I have a Fujitsu tablet that was made sometime in the late 1990s. Among tablet PC fans, this tablet is considered second generation. These tablet PCs are really more like 3rd or 4th generation, they are just the first ones to be marketed widely rather than to specific niche markets, such as the medical field. Also, my tablet can do most of the things that the new tablets can do (document annotation, etc.)
A good point, but the real issue here is censorship. Why should an ISP have to block ANY website? They aren't the ones breaking the law. It is up to individuals to follow the law/do what is morally right, and corporations should not be enforcing morality, and especially should not be enforcing the law!
Actually, used NES's are going for around $50 US now, whereas a used N64 is only about $35. So apparently they have acquired quite some value, due to their rarity.

Freedows was a real project that intended to create one operating system that would replace windows, unix and macOS. It is apparently dead now.

I would like to know what this asteroid rates on the torino scale mentioned in the palermo scale page.
And here i though you were trying to say that these asteroids were like a winmodem on a linux box.
Of course remembering to use the TTSSH addon program
Or you could check out Infiltration, or any of the other UE themes sites on the web.
