Just because someone does an interview doesnt make them BETTER than you, ive had lots of interviews where they arent as wise.
Often they choose
A) someone cheap, not too much experience that they WONT ask for raises B) someone who isnt married who can work 24/7 without their wifes/gf's bitching to them. C) someone in the family
You should have said notepad.exe with a straight face, then wait 3 seconds, and laughed at them.

Bugger, im shit out of luck now.
I guess im forced to use joe.
"In vim, you are by default in command mode"
Then its not an editor, its a command shell.
I loved NEDIT, easy to use etc.. but now there is JEDIT , its java based, runs everywhere, no need to recompile and all that crap with X etc... I use it as default in windows too, unless im in VS7.
I never edit 420meg text files in joe, and i dont type more than 100wpm. So CPU usage is hardly a part of the reasoning.

So we have distros that take up 500-1.5 GIG, but the stupid (oldfarts) cant find the time to include 150kb editor?
Yes I know how to use VI in emergency, but id rather spend the extra 3mins downloading joe, coz I hope to death that vi goes away with CPM/128. Who ever thought of that moronic interface should be shot. It reeks of 1974.
google returns 50% more hits for "joe editor" compared to "vi editor" btw.

MS can afford to give (buy) ibm's effort for $5billion, (spare change really), if it means nintendo dies into nothing more than a kiddie toy as good as a wrist watch and ps3 dies coz it would be lame ass, and 100x harder to program for compared to DX10 or something. Remember if it takes 3x coders and 2x time to make a game, game houses will dump the ps3. Every 4 years its a new ball game.
Who knows in 2010, someone else with $10b to spare could kickass, but without both terrific software and everything that money can buy hardware, who can compete? ID4 with ATI with APPLE consortium? or perhaps EA with INTEL? Anything could happen in 2010. Its a big stakes game and if it means $5-10b/year *5, people take notice.
In a perfect closed system, its static, any increase comes from IMPORTS, but I doubt UK as a trade balance thats positive, (OIL sales help a lot from north sea) so the real gain from GDP? fractional reserve banking of lending cash out thats made from THIN AIR.

If your so 'twisted' as to steel and be a bad ass, they bad luck, ur out of the loop, and into the bin, if you had any brains you would seek proper help from churches and charities and really be a better person.
If the poor sods want to claim 'oh my child hood was bad' then look at all the good people that had bad child hoods who now are rich. If you are a trully nice and good person, you wont be in the ditch eating rats for long, you'll find a trade or skill thats worth something, and if you want, well why are you hear for? Go blow some gays in a gloryhole and earn you $5/hr there.
We can't be too sympathetic to total scum and crud. If you wont help your self, why should anyone else. Would any one miss you? no. So bugger off, and dispear , or if you want help, put some effort into it.

A) mozillas image resize is still utter crap made by looser programmers that have NO CLUE on image processing and propper resize algorythms, or the website designers have no clue to make a propper image size spec.
ie
Now , can they get a damn clue, and no force a width, unless they have proper image resize server algos (like zoom.sourceforge.net)
GRRRRR
UTTER MADNESS and incompetence.
I also put equal blame on IE/moz teams for being stupid, I mean id mod moz my self, tho if i would id leave in some nasty comments in the code for em, I have no mercy, I will call em screw ball 1987 wanna bee coders.
Ever since 1997 I thought , "damn what utter crap, are these so called MBA uni grads that stupid?". Proper image resizing using interpolation is trivial, especially if the OS now can do it for you, and even then its utterly painfully basic to code it your self, even after 12 beers, and 4 hrs sleep in a week with 3 hrs coding.
Seams like the old days amiga coders could whip up 10x more effort in 1991.

University admins are the biggest pedlers of warez/mp3s I know.
Them and the staff of departments (the techy geeky ones at least) keep internal servers of Gigs of warez and mp3s. They just keep it within their group.
Im sure any IT/soft engineer in a university is going to get around any scheme they put in, and the company will always be slow to update the checkers coz they are a normal slow responding business, they arent going to update data files constantly for 1000 diff clients daily.
