No not in data comunication. Not when powers of two does not make sense.

Calculators often use base 10, motorola 68000 has base 10 instructions, Data comunication is another example.
I can not however understand that people react on *this*, when the entire apple site is one gigantic (10^9) lie.
This is often the case with reverse enginered "standards". It is often better creating a real standard and let the other implement it. Only using the reverse enginered thing as a last option.
How long has people tried to open Office documents? Why should this be different?
The difference is that no one will use the Mac afterwards anyway;-)

So you argue that we should not have retaliated the nazist? And that the US should continue to arm Nazist when slaughtering Judes, Homosexuals and other disturbing ellements? I, for myself, think that if *any* country, Israel should know better.
Or maby you call the resistance (judish and other) in europe just terrorist that did not like the freedom offered by the nazis???
I can not spell good because I am not that great at speaking or writing english.

Do you still think your argument is good?
Yes!
Windows (beta) is 64 bit and can run 64 bit
applications as well as 32 bit ones.
That is, you got all your old apps and can get
new 64 bit ones that you need.
Of course there is 64 bit GNU/Linux and BSD for
it as well.
That is not true!!!
MS did it ca 10 years ago with the alpha port.

The G3 produces so little heat just because
it the low clock speed.
If you owerclock it and add extra die you
will add power consumption.
I do not say it is wrong, neither do I say
that it is wrong to sell MS Word.
Exactly.
Yahoo sells the client, we pay with ads.
If we use gaim we do not pay Yahoo.
So Yahoo sell clients like MS sells word
only we pay with ads. I think the ad model
is not much different.
I do not see what you mean.
.doc)
Yahoo has a monopoly on one of the common used
communication protocols (like word
Gaim can read/write many protocols (like OpenOffice)
but will always be one step after.
It is not in neither Microsoft's nor Yahoo's intrest
to support competative products.
I think Microsoft should support OpenOffice.
Do you think they will?

No, it is L3, you are right. I am a moron!
I think it is L2 cache.
double false = 3.0;
try that in c++
No it is not, just allmost.
Cancer I would say is not as important,

seems to be too hard).

Is it not funny! Apple fanatics that allways tell

their bus speed is higher!!!
There is an advantage when downloading.
You can have you debian sid updated

without the net.
Yeah, but both are wrong I think.

Yeah, but then I would choose windows, cheaper
and faster hardware.
I think Classpath is easyer because of that .Net with
Java was designed to be portable.
winforms is not.
Allthough Swing is not ported much of the
"usual" 1.2 API is. For example Eclipse
now runs compiled with gcj.
