IBM came out with the Disk Operating System first. I still have a factory copy, manuals and disks of IBM DOS 1.0....
I recall Micro$hit coming out with a DOS around 3.x, I think it was the AT&T 6300 that I first began seeing MSDOS shipping with. MSDOS 3.1 I think it was.
We were loading IBM DOS 2.1 on 5160's w/10meg hard drives long before we ever heard of Micro$hit.
As far as I can remember, MSDOS never released a 2.x DOS. So, who invented the FAT system? I would lay money on it that IBM did.
Know M$'s history of ripping people off though, this comes as no suprise.
In that no computer trusts any other computer, ever for any reason.
You're guarding an armored car. Another man approaches you wearing all the correct uniform and regalia, he evens looks familiar to you, you've seen his face at the armored car company. He has the password of the day. Can you REALLY trust him? How do you know that he's really who he says he is? And even if Bob the guard really is Bob the guard, how do you know that Bob the guard hasn't just all of a sudden decided to slip a few $$ in his pocket when you aren't looking or just knock you out from behind and take off with a sack of money?
Traitors ALWAYS work from within. Who do you trust? Do you trust people you've never met with your computer security or do you take it upon yourself to handle your own security.
If one computer gets comprimised in a "trusted computing" system, the game is over. Don't trust anyone or anything. Machines are easy to fool, they can't think.
The only SECURE computer is one that is melted down into an ingot of pot metal. THAT computer can't be comprimised.

Totally tripped out ad. I like it.
This ad shows me that IBM is going balls out with Linux. SCO is toast and IBM knows it. This ad is poking sticks at the (sco)monkeys. Ads like this are going to make people start asking questions. IBM is planting the seeds and we have to water the fields now..
I hope you used the money you saved from those book purchases to make sure you have licenses for Win2k, Dreamweaver, and Fireworks.
Nope. I use pirated winware. This is a TEMPORARY task and at the end of the job I intend to erase to software, in about two weeks.
I wouldn't pay a cent for any M$ software for any reason or under any condition. I consider win2k to be public domain anyway. I use Linux. I am only using winbloz/DW4 to save time on this job because I have previous experiance with it. I found the Linux html editors to be unfamiliar to me and I don't have the time to learn them. I needed to get the job done in a hurry.
I just picked up "Dreamweaver 4 Bible" and "Fireworks 4 Bible" with unopened CD's still in the back, ONE DOLLAR EACH.
The library sold them off because no one was checking them out. The retail on those books is $50 each.
The books are in virgin condition.
Though I am A Linux man, I regretably confess that I am using a winbloz 2k box on the side to develope two commercial websites for customers. (Don't ask, long story..)
I find excellent bargains in the library all the time like this..
Everyone will get buggy shit that crashes 6 ways to sunday and finally will say fsck it and switch to the new Asian Linux, I forget what it's called, maybe "Red Star" Linux?
In my greedy ass state of Taxu$, they tax the living shit out of phone service. There's taxes on the taxes on the taxes. Pluss all that universal service tax that Klintoon slapped us up with.
Fuck em. Let the states choke to death on it. Greedy bastards ass rape you every time you turn around. I would be glad to see them getting less money from me for once. And I don't get anything back from the state. I don't avail myself of any state provided services. At least any that are funded by telephone service taxes.
If SCO is selling embedded licenses for $29 per device and the DVD manufacturers are RETAILING them for $29 at Wally World then they must be giving them away for free.
When you consider all the middle men and middle-middle men that handle the unit from assembly line in China to the isle pallet at wally world, each handler marking up the unit 100%, or at the very least, 50%, (and figure in shipping costs too!) the cost to produce a DVD player is most likely in the less than $1 per unit range. And if they paid the SCO scam of $29 per unit, they would be losing a LOT of money real fast.
It's in their best profit-interest to ignore the GPL and do what ever the hell they want. If they get sued they can fold shop, change name/address and be back to cranking out new players the next day.
"By design, Phoenix's CSS transfers digital security, network management and disaster recovery away from the control of software to hardware, truly differentiating itself from legacy BIOS. "
What this means is that Phoenix is stripping your ability to control your system from you and putting that ability in the hands of Pheonix and M$.
This will lead to M$ approved/signed versions of Linux, but only after bloody battles in court. *IF* we're lucky that is. Hidden somewhere in some Homeland Security BULLSHIT, will be a clause that outlaws non M$ operating systems. It may take a year or three but you watch and see. Dubya love$ BIG biz too much to pass up such an oportunity. Not to mention he masturbates constantly to his picture of "Big Brother" as he reads Poindexters TIA operations manual.
Billy boy (and his bitch, Darl) will slip Dubya the weenie in the oral office plus a few cool $$ into a swiss bank account and next thing you know we all wake up in a doubleplus good world.
Now, how about getting the featured sites tuned up too so that don't take such a/. beating.
Seems that/. can take a/.ing but no one else can..
Perhaps by saving bandwidth with the new design, some of that bandwidth can be used to mirror some of the (mickey-mouse hosted) sites prior to publishing them. Then everyone could get a chance to see the site or a facsimle thereof.
I'll be impressed when they announce they are shipping systems with Linux installed as the DESKTOP enviroment, sans any M$ products.
When I clicked on the gateway link, out of morbid curiosity, I got this at the very top of the first page I saw,
"Gateway recommends Microsoft(R) Windows(R) XP"
Not that I would ever buy a pre-built computer or recomend that anyone buy one, but I'm not seeing too much headway being made in the final conflict for the desktop.
I suppose this is still better than nothing, perhaps it's a start.

Wow. Now that's a comprehensive search if I ever saw one.
If there was truly a SINGLE speaker that could do this then that would be noteworthy. Putting FIVE speakers in a single cabinet and calling it a SINGLE speaker is wrong.
There is nothing new, intersting, innovative or revolutionary about this.
This is about as exciting as an ice cream parlor in Alaska..
Red lights have nothing to do with the printing process. Film is not sensitive to red light so you use red light in the dark room because you can see what you are doing as you handle and develop the film. You use WHITE light in the printing process. I was helping my dad develop film when I was 5, back in 1966. That's the way it's ALWAYS been done.

I was helping my dad develop film when I was 5, back in 1966. That's the way it's ALWAYS been done.
reloading the camera is practically imposible and not worth it (you'd have to do it complete darkness)
Haven't heard of red light bulbs have ya??
I'll bet you can JTAG into it.
Damn near everything is JTAGable now.
I'll bet the other cheapy camera's can be too.
Ah hah!
