Screw that. We purposefully avoided SP2 because of mandatory choices it made for you.
Now, we had to scramble around and install it (it's needed for the hotfix) because this stupid ass "good" worm killed our systems when the blaster missed us completely.
If I ever get to meet my "benefactor", I'll give him a windows update with my good right fist!
Like hell. The winter is a great time to visit here. The cold thins out the dilettante tourists and the city knows how to handle cold and muck.
You have never gone on a great pub crawl until you've done one in Chicago in January. We know how to drink our way through the winter.
And if you're going to visit the U of Chicago (most Nobel prize winners anywhere), and stare at the sculpture marking the spot where the first sustained manmade chain fission reaction took place, you shoudl see it in it's cold and gray glory.
Don't be surprised if management at all levels except the very top starts getting outsourced.
And then, ultimately there'll be some hot company that consists of a chairman who owns 51% of the stock living in the U.S. and all the other parts of the company and managers who will be in India or China.
Then that Chairman will sell 2% of his/her stock for some reason and get outsourced himself.
I don't see it. How could SCO's suit kill Open Source as a whole?
The offending code (if there is any) will have to be identified, even if in a broad manner. The community replaces the code with new code - voila - legality is restored.
What outcome are you envisioning that could have a nuclear effect?
I'm pretty sure you can leave access to that thing wide open and it'll still be as safe and untouched as if it were translated to Navajo and encrypted with 3DES.
I mean, he'd carry in nuclear, bilogical, and chemical weapons in to the studio in his pants every day. When the pants came off, the sensors went wild.
Now, of course he causes problems with the CBS sensors. His Cardiac Bypass Shunt cause all kinds of problems.
The Matrix boxed set comes out. Of course, the smart money will wait for the next spring when the super-duper ultra-special Matrix boxed set with never before seen footage of Keanu Reeves picking his nose in bullet time comes out.
I'll bet you see a whole new version of the time and motion studies with these things. It'll cause worker unrest and eventually strikes until a more reasonable compromise is reached.

I don't miss much about Christianity, but the "no questions asked" help for the destitute is sorely lacking today.
Ah, who am I kidding? One way or the other, Bill Gates gets a sailboat out of this.
Read the EULA's from the orignal software and from the service packs sometime.

IMHO, IANAL
When is the last time Slashdotters actually cheered on IBM?
I thought Waldenbooks owned Borders.
As does France. As does Britain. As does Italy. As does Germany. As does Canada. Oh, well, maybe not Canada, but you get the picture.
Take digital photos as you scroll down and transcribe it.
I for one would like to welcome our new Chinese overlords...
Golly, I just hope Arthur Anderson will finally give up 10.0.0.0/24.

Plus, you'll have to run the bathroom, and running's good exercise!

But that's the beauty of Open Source. You can't be truly orphaned.
Maybe the law firms will think about converting now?
I checked that box and now I get reports from British intelligence. It's wild, I tell ya.

Hey, maybe you don't call them "nibbick", but some of us do.

Aren't acronyms fun?
So why can't we do this in San Francisco and Chicago and Manhattan where the density would warrant the expense. I'd sure as hell sign up.

But strangely, they're all named Sybil...
