Two missionaries in Africa were apprehended by a tribe of very hostile cannibals who put them in a large pot of water, build a huge fire under it, and left them there. A few minutes later, one of the missionaries started to laugh uncontrollably. The other missionary was incredulous, and said, "What's wrong with you? We're being boiled alive! They're going to eat us! What could possibly be funny at a time like this?" The laughing missionary said, "I just peed in their soup!"
I'm running WinXP on a Pentium II 400 mhz box.I had to do a lot of tweaking to make it work. That implies stoping lots of services that usually run by default and taking out all the eye-candy. Yes, it runs. I can run yahoo messenger, msn messenger, google talk, thunderbird, firefox, and winamp at the same time. It doesn't crash as win98 does, but I still see a blue screen once a week. I can't run iTunes, everything gets soooo slow. Videos play as powerpoint presentations (you hear the audio and the image changes every 3 seconds).
This machine running windows 98 feels faster than a brand-new box on XP. Of course windows 98 is useless now-a-days. Ubuntu Linux works as installed by default as fast as win98. I wouldn't really recommend Windows on legacy sytems.
What measures are in place to ensure the safe environmentally clean disposal of the tens of millions of soon to be useless analog TV's in your country?

They are missing some interesting features like the 'ooooooo' representing the result page number, the 'I'm feeling lucky' button and the content sensitive ads.
I don't know if it integrates with all that apps that neither I use.
It searches very well all that type of documents, pdf's and images.
I think it would be useful to search sourcecode and any XML file. And of course all free/open stuff
If it is sold worldwide, we won't have to pay for a full windows licence on a new dell laptop anymore. Last time i bought a laptop I installed Linux before loading windows for the first time (you know.. that anoying "press any key if you agree the licence" screen)
