Unfair! Many IE users are forced to spoof their user-agent strings to represent themselves as Mozilla/FireFox users to make themselves looks hip and socially conscious.
Am I the only one trying to figure out how you would implement a word processor using X Forms? Would it be like "ed" but where you submit each line to a cgi script?
This article is about creating web-like navigation for normal native windows apps.
Dashboard is about using web-like markup and scripting to create small desktop utilities. While I imagine you could do the former with the later, that isn't it's purpose.
Your remark only applies if you take the title of the/. story at it's word (not a safe thing to do, sadly).
This isn't about Dashboard or the like (Wait for an article on the Longhorn sidebar for that, but make room for the WindowMaker/NeXtStEp users).
Longhorn will provide a framework (not required) for organizing your app into pages with web like navigation. This series of articles illustrates a library for doing the same using the current WinForms library.
From the Smithsonian in DC on the Internet terminals at the end of the computer history display. There were no keyboards but cut n paste via the mouse was still enabled so I assembled a URL (or search term, can't remember which) from the available letters.
On the subject of what a platform's graphics library can do vs. what it actually does/is forced to do in practice, you might find this article interesting.
Actually it looks like a different but similar idea. The version referenced in that thread doesn't dynamically determine when it needs to group. It just does it in one optional fixed way, that way being pretty much just like BeOS's taskbar.
Obvious? So why didn't anyone do it before MS? And how does a taskbar with buttons combined with a taskbar with buttons and menus of windows equal a taskbar with buttons menus and where those buttons and menus are dynamically generated? Seems you are missing an improtant ingredient.
FWIW, MS has a patent (5,920,316) on the original taskbar too.
Maybe Be Inc. should have patented their improvement too.
BeOS's taskbar wasn't the same thing. They always grouped windows of a single application together. This patent is on dynamically detecting the need to group and acting on it.
An artificial lung for humans and other mammals inserted within the body or placed externally. The artificial lung comprises an electrically actuated three-way valve, a casing containing parallel loops of oxygenator tubes for oxygenation of blood by an atmosphere of circulating air, and an air circulation driving fan powered by an energizing system. As a safety factor in the event of leakage in the casing, a check valve is inserted in an effluent blood duct from the casing to the aerated effluent blood. Two artificial lungs can be utilized internally as left and right lungs.
Both MS Office and OpenOffice.org have some basic flowchart shapes and/or drawing capabilities. Look for Autoshapes in one of the MS Office apps (Word, Excel, Powerpoint). I'm not sure what flowchart specific stuff is in OpenOffice.org Draw though as I don't have it installed here.
It is probably a good thing OpenOffice.org has abandoned that integrated desktop UI that the original StarOffice had. If they felt like improving it they could have run afoul of this patent held by Corel: US Patent No. 20030090519
This patent might be something those KParts and Bonobo-UI guys would want to look at, in case this Vector company or someone that buys them goes the profit-by-IP-lawsuit route.
Hint: read the claims and description. The abstract is rather useless.

That and lots of water downrange

As the AC above says, they use CATIA.
CATIA appears to only run on the following platforms:
Windows 2000
Windows XP
IBM AIX
Hewlett Packard HP-UX
SGI IRIX
Sun Solaris

IIRC, GNOME added it around the same time (earliest reference I could find to the feature).
Windows XP's version of the feature was publically known as early as November 2000.

Sorry.

I'd be more worried about all the time/money wasted writing checks for $1.09 to the plantiffs in the resulting class action lawsuit.

BTW, a neat history of the development of the Mac including stuff about about the development of desk accessories can be found here

If it is so common, why didn't someone else come up with it first?
It hasn't done that by default since Windows 95 (ie: almost 9 YEARS AGO!). Maybe NT 4.0 did it too, but still...
They did, but they still distribute it via MSDN subscriptions (to allow developers to test on old platforms). Now that will stop too.
People with glass box solutions shouldn't throw stones.

What about GDI+?
Actually Paul Di'Anno was the original singer on their first two albums, then Bruce replaced him.
"Killers" is a great album. I believe Paul still tours solo and sings some of the Maiden songs from that era. At least he did a few years ago.

D'oh! Please be kind. I do realize (now) that that is not the same thing.
Stiil, it is an option.
