Hell, they all probably work. Firefox sure does. They just haven't been certified. The certification process takes a while and you have to pay for it. Microsoft sets the requirements and some 3rd party company administers it. After the 3rd party company has certified your product, then you can put the Vista (or XP) logo on your product. You also get listed on Microsoft's web site as having a certified product. Not being on the list means you either 1) haven't bothered to be certified, or 2) you failed certification. It doesn't mean the software doesn't run on that platform.

if the source code is proprietary, it is hidden from the general population. This robs them of a tremendous source for learning.'"
They were saying they wish the source code was available for Windows so they could learn from it. Yeah, right... The general population doesn't give a damn about learning from the source. Propaganda!
They can use Dropline, or just do what I did: switch to Ubuntu. I switched and I haven't looked back having used Slack for about 2 years. The package management w/ Ubuntu (Debian) is simply superior. After it was announced that GNOME was being dropped, I wanted a distro where GNOME was a first class citizen and a distro that wasn't dependent on just one man.
Source code is not the same as quality documentation. The MSDN CDs and site provide great documentation for developers. It's much easier than sifting through the virtually non-existent API documentation when trying to develop apps for GTK or QT.
Also, you don't have to bother with having a life. You can put it on hold for four years because there are no women and there's nothing to do but drink beer on the weekends.

If everyone forwarded every spam they received to their congressman, then that would get their attention. OTOH, maybe we don't want to shut down congress's mail server--it might be seen as an hostile act.

laugh people...it's not the end of the world...ok, maybe it is...but laugh anyways
I guess it is not much different than the law that was enjoined.
Syntax really isn't right, though. It should return a value and it doesn't.

You use the one your boss tells you that you are going to use.
I guess he doesn't believe in spelling either.
The story was funny.
Well the startup time is awfully slow for OO Writer. I'd rather use MS Word or AbiWord.
Actually, Windows is written in C
It will only cost $100-150 tops, if anything at all, and you will have more piece of mind.

I thought that was Yoda and not Spock that said that...
Islamic extremists fear Kerry? That's one of the funniest things I've heard all month. Yeah, they probably fear the French too... ROTFLMAO
Compared to who? Kerry? Why do you support Al Qaeda?
You wouldn't happen to be French and/or Al Qaeda would you?

Same here. The only problem with a TI calculator is that it's not an HP (and RPN). Still using my HP-41CV...I must be a dinosaur.
The ought to name it after the cowboy hat, our President (in the U.S.), and after Cowboy Neal!
Eugenia runs OS News and seems to not like very much. The fact that she really likes it is a surprise.
Just eat a burrito or two and wait...compressed natural gas.
