Let's pretend, for a minute, that a system compromising vulnerability is "equally serious" as a spoofed URL. This will take some imagination and serious role-play, but we can do it.
Now that we have that in place, let's look at this issue: when will the Mozilla development team fix the issue, and when will Microsoft?
I don't know about you, but my money's on Mozilla.
DOC: "I'm a pacifist."
CABOOSE: "You're a thing that babies suck on?"
TUCKER: "No dude, that's a pedophile."
CHURCH: "Tucker, I think he means a pacifier."
TUCKER: "Oh yeah, right man...... I was totally thinkin' about something else"
CHURCH: "That's real classy, Tucker."
>> By lower price tag, you're really only talking $15
Probably not a lower price tag at all. Since the drives are built into the machines, it would mean that Apple would have to produce a third version of each iBook, and one that would be in very low demand.
We're talking HIGHER price tag for that, not lower. Cost of a product is a lot more than just the sum of the values/costs of the parts.
>> Is it just me, or does this argument/rebuttal happen every single time there is a story posted about one of the LOTR movies. Seriously, go back to the beginning, since Fellowship of the Ring Extended Edition was announced, and go back through those posts... I guarantee these will be there, word for word.
And your point?
If something is true, it SHOULD remain constant.
It only bears repeating because people repeatedly fail to get it.
Jacqui Adams, 22, and Anita Esposito, 19, are just two of the thousands of adults hooked on the Neopet games. They're now fearful the site could be shut down altogether.
"There's many, many different species and they're all based on real things, like a Lupe is a dog, a Scorchio is a dragon," Jacqui said.
AAAAAHAHAAHHA! What kind of a response is that? Sounds like a 5 year old describing their Duplo construction.
Lupe is a dog, and Scorchio is a dragon! They're based on real things! We have a winner for today's "You're Not Helping Yourself Any" Award.
making a stand-alone demo takes time away from the making of a game.
On games like Halo 2 and Half-Life 2 and Doom 3, they've taken long enough to make them, I don't want to wait another month or two for the dev to "rope off" an area of the game for the demo.
Perhaps finding something better to do with your life than waiting endlessly for games, and eating up every little dropping that comes out about them.
I can honestly say I've completely ignored Halo 2 until right about now, just before release. The end result? You're frazzled over waiting and waiting. I did something better with my time. And yet, we get to play the game at the same time.
>> I'm an Apple fan but this arguement is just plain stupid. The developer problem facing Apple is not the lack of big names like Adobe and Microsoft but the lack of small names you're probably never heard.
Seriously! There's no Spybot or Ad-Aware on Mac OS X! WTF am I supposed to do when I run IE and get 0wnz0red by spyware?!?
That's the official line. What I've heard is that people are afraid to vote, as they expect to be killed for cooperating with the americans, Opium production is something like 70% of the world supply, and the fundie religous types (like the Taliban) are gaining power again. Call me when they're sovereign and at least halfway friendly.
Which, of course, is completely unlike the situation BEFORE the US got there..../sarcasm

Speak for yourself.
I for one welcome our new pr0n-on-the-walls game ad overloards.

Bullshit.
"Good on my floor, your clothes look."
"In sack with me, you shall be!"
"Kissing leads to sucking, sucking leads to screwing, screwing leads to cum-ming!"
All stuff that's gotten me laid. Although they usually say "Pay up front, you must."
GABE NEWELL IS FAT!
Oops, wrong troll.

See, for me, it's PC desktop, Mac laptop.
PC desktop for games and endless fun with new Linux distros. Mac laptop for a laptop that will Always Just Work (tm), and be nice and easy to use.
Not really.
Anyone that isn't willing to spend $150 or less on an Xbox isn't going to be spending $300-some on an Xbox 2 just to get to play Xbox games.
Backwards compatability is the most "overhyped" feature on earth. A nice bonus, but little more.
Yeah, no kidding. Unless there's a reasonable way to run Windows Update without IE, then this would be an unacceptable solution.
And your point?

Haha! He can't remember which way he's trolling!
There is only negative acceleration.

If movies you're watching are doing that, then you are not watching the right movies.
Davey, repeat afer me, "Star Wars is not real. Darth Vader is not Hitler."
Even the trolls aren't pouring into here. I'm getting scared.
Great intention, bad Idea.

And yet the US is blamed for "fucking things up".
If I were registered, it might matter.
Shh!!
There are tons of books on sex, and those gaps get filled every night.
Same as, "If you were in a pool for 9 vulnerabilities which didn't affect a fully patched system..."
SP2's not a new OS. It's a big fat stack of patches. Don't pretend like it's a clean slate.
That's what I get for having faith in you, Microsoft!
