The funny part is that most everyone would have *concerns* about a red light district. The reality is that people want porn, will have porn, and since it's a done deal, should it *be* in a red light district?
First of all, it's the Bill of Rights, not the Constitution.
Second of all, the amendments are *not* interpreted verbatum as you or I might find them obvious. Many times the amendments are judged only to apply to certain things or certain conditions. For example, I can quite easily be arrested *and* convicted for saying "I'm gonna fuck'n kill you" to someone. Freedom of speech? Similarly, for many infractions of the law, it's impossible to get a jury trial. Constitutional? I quess so.
That's what I did with my daughter when she was 4-5. She's 18 now and, in her second year of college with a 4.0 majoring in botany.
Ok, don't get him a PCjr. I just wanted a little geek-parent-brag. The point is to get him something he can play with, hammer on, and call his own. Something where he can play games and learn the keyboard layout, later doing typing games and then writing documents. Make sure the machine also has a printer somewhere.
But shouldn't the Canadian Government be doing the refunding? They mandated it, they probably took the money from Apple as it was collected, seems like Apple gets screwed twice, along with Canadian citizens.
I was a hardware designer back then so I know what I'm talking about. If DOS didn't run Lotus, people wouldn't buy it, plain and simple. Lotus was the killer ap. Microsoft had nothing that would take it's place and Microsoft absolutely needed it to sell DOS. Either propaganda or mindless speculation.
Running my very first assembly language program on a PDP 8/l. Running a text-mode lunar lander written in FOCAL on a PDP 8 then patching it to change the lunar gravity and fuel available.
Playing lunar lander on a GT-40 (PDP 11/05 with graphics adapter) in graphics mode in 1973.
Building my own ADM-3 terminal from a kit.
Booting CP/M successfully using my own custom BIOS. Buying my first pair of floppy drives (360k, $200 each). Buying my first hard drive (5meg, $250).
Building my own PC from a bare printed circuit board and a bunch of parts
Successfully booting MS/DOS with a BIOS I had completely written myself.
Watching my employee successfully boot Linux on a custom ARM9 board that we designed.
If I had the time, I'd write a script that would take a random file from his \windows directory, substitute a.wav file extension for the existing one and play it. That would be plenty random.

Son of the late Issac Asimov was busted for child pornography the very same way. http://www.newsmakingnews.com/asimov3,29,01.htm
next week, stay tuned for when they are going to install windows on a 1 gb usb keydrive!!
BFD. I've been running a Win98 box off of a 256meg CompactFlash for over a year. Of course I'm not a Researcher. (rolls his eyes)
Can someone explain to me why I should be thinking something other than "big deal"?
Perhaps someone in an alternate, parallel somewhat retarded universe can...
I still don't agree, but why not sober up a little and reply to the second half of my post?
By all common usage, both judicial and popular, they are 2 separate documents.

Confusion is the tool of George Bush, Bill Gates and SCO. They are all evil in the eyes of Slashdot.

Concerning clueless/fascist /. moderation. I dare say all regular posters have suffered from it. Nonetheless, good call.

And I predict a plethera of clinched sphincters at Microsoft. A perversely amusing mental image.
A brilliant, brilliant piece of stand-up hacking. Perhaps the best that has *ever* appeared in /. I stand in awe...
There would be actual movies being made there, and an observation platform to watch.
I have. Most of the time it's exquisitely boring. The theme park sounds like fun though.

A piece of rock barely as big as a football field.
I hear they record the unit's serial number on every copy they make too...
Hypothetically speaking, you might want to have it to see if someone influenced the study.
Except that lying to Nature isn't a felony.

So I'm a troll... What the fsk does a poster have to do to be funny? Hell, there's only 12 posts, not like I'm wasting bandwidth...
They should fix the shuttle gas gauge sender first?
