Ah yes, further and further off topic. Ignore the argument at hand and move on to something else to avoid looking like you're loosing.
You made baseless assumptions on my character, my personality, etc. based on one post. You don't like mozilla, fine. You don't like me for talking about mozilla, fuck off. I'll continue to tell everyone I can about it, about what they are doing, and about how they should check it out for themselves.
And I'll be a far better person than you for doing it.
There's actually nothing sadder than someone like you who makes an untold number of assumptions about a person based on one post.
I know you're not British. You clearly can not see the irony of me calling you Briths based on a SINGLE WORD when you were making assumptions based on one post. The joke is yet again on you.
Why would anyone listen to me? Because I'm not a foaming-at-the-mouth ranter like you.
On another level, this book is also one of the first finished documents that explains what the Mozilla group has really been up to for the past five years. Some have abandoned the project, and others have attacked it as fundamentally misguided. This book shows why it took so long by demonstrating all of the cool features added during the long march to a new, thoroughly extensible architecture.
To me this is the one of the most important parts. I'm not a programmer, nor will I ever be I think. But from an evangelism perspective, I can point to this and say: "See, see? They were not just f-ing around for years, they were building something with amazing functionality!"
It works perfectly fine in mozilla, you just have to scroll down. the javascript menues getty is using for some reason want to roll UP the page, so by default the page gives them enough headroom to appear.
So the case is not exactly similar, but remember when Sony invented a film critic. They were dumb enough to say the person worked for a real paper but when caught they got quite the lashing over it (you remember all the congressional investigations right? oh, you don't? me neither...)
Why can't marketing people do something better with their lives like help save real people or act as paving material or something...
It's not my fault they're selling the XBox at a loss.
I don't care if Ford is not making any money the year I buy my new car, I'll modify it just the same.
This is a poor excuse on Microsofts part (if that is their logic). Why should others pay for their poor business practices....
Oh, the millions of bugs in their software...that's right...
Well, I guess everyone/does/ have to pay for their business practices. In that case, I'm all for suing everyone that doesn't give Microsoft at least $200 a year.
I'm not yet a parent but I'm very much glad I have my m500. I waited quite a while before buying any sort of PDA but now that I have, it's become quite a usefull tool. I actually am more organized with both the address book and the calander. I'm happy to be able to write notes to myself, and I'm finding a fare number of freeware programs to help me organize my hobbies a bit.
It really is a usefull tool, for me.
Now, with that said, I know a great number of people to whom the PDA is simply a toy. Either they don't want to learn to exploit it or they only ever wanted it to be a toy to begin with, I donno.
If film was dead, They would stop making new SLR's.
Digitial is a different tool. Film is most certainly not dead, nor is it ever going to die.
I, for one, am just getting into photography and have no plans on going digital. I want to cut my teeth with film and with darkroom technique. I want to be just as comfortable in the darkroom as I feel in Photoshop.
Slashdot Mirror
The site is still up for me but just in case, here's a mirror:
http://home.attbi.com/~bernhard36/mouseled1.html
http://home.attbi.com/~bernhard36/mouseled2.html
http://home.attbi.com/~bernhard36/mouseled3.html
though page one links to two and two to three fine on the mirror
Now their legal bills can be dwarfed by their ISP bills after the slashdotting!
"Have you ever thought of going into advertising?"
By this article being posted to slashdot, and others picking up on the story and posting more links to SearchKing, won't their rank go up automagicly?
Maybe they were only after publicity to begin with?
I would, but only if I was quitting or trying to get fired :)

Your fatalism is sure spot on for Hamlet and Danish blood would have helped with the teeth that's for sure.
Hamlet was a tool. You his cousin?
Clearly another example of someone who doesn't understand what they're looking at, but knee-jerk a reaction anyway.
I'm sorry you're so bitter? jealous? pathetic? (all of the above?). Someday you'll find love beyond your right hand.
Oooh a troll. a british troll! On slashdot no less. Who'da thunk' it?
I never said I was.
I evangalize mozilla.org and 2 of the binaries they've produced: mozilla browser and phoenix browser.
The last thing this world needs is another programmer with an ego problem.

Bring the whole "Dune" series with you! :)

Great catch! How did you know that? :)
If Microsoft can't create a profitable business model off of their hardware, maybe they should get out of the hardware business...

Not that I think visi is going to get /.'ed but I've put a mirror up here as well (using your mirror).
I should say, it can't be larger than 60MB in total filesize...but I doubt that it is.
I am more than happy to host a mirror of this if someone has a copy of it in their cache.

argh. SLR's in this case was supposed to be film SLR's. In fact, it could just say "They would stop making new film cameras."
If film was dead, They would stop making new SLR's.
