    Well Canon is comming out with some new ink tanks series called CromaLife100 campatible with the iP8600, iP8100, iP7100, iP6100D, iP4100, iP4100R, iP3100, MP900, MP790, MP770, and the new PIXMA printers. .

    Computer translation: "The silver salt photograph which from the negative film you develop & print and the photograph which is printed with the ink jet printer fade, with lapse of time, gradually. This does being something due to the influence of the gas and the light which are included in the air. As holds down these influences to minimum, the photograph it is beautiful succeeding in no year making maintain, the new dye ink " BCI-7 " of CANON.

    1. $10.00 (US Dollars). Only money orders or a bank cashier check will be accepted

  3. Re:Press releases on Mozilla Starts Work On XForms · · Score: 1

    Press releases generally aren't made for the general public, but for reporters. Companies want these releases repeated in trade publications and other media as a form of free advertising.

    Having live links would be a detriment for these people, as they would have to open the source to look at the original to copy it. They might end up with a different focus than PR wants if reporters visit these links and modify their text based on them.

    This results in what looks vary close to crashes after the intersection. Certainly an uncormforatble stop. The more traffic the bigger number of reservations you need (~24 in this case). I hope that in real life it would be implemented with better failure modes. Darn html :(

    Incorrect. Kobe Bryant's are seeking communications between the Vail-area hotel worker, her former boyfriend and one other person. Not her lawyers.

    "Four months later, Bryant's attorneys subpoenaed AT&T Wireless Communications Inc., seeking the messages"

  9. Speed vs. velocity on The Lyrids Are Coming! · · Score: 3, Interesting

    SeaDour writes "The year's first meteor shower, the Lyrids, will peak in the pre-dawn hours of April 22nd when the Earth plows through the debris trail of Comet Thatcher at a relative velocity of 49 km/s

    There is no direction given, so SeaDour should have used speed, not velocity. Or is this a convention often used in astronomy?

    SCO also warned companies that they must pay to use Linux, which is based on the proprietary Unix operating system, or face litigation.

    I don't think Forbes got it wrong. This sentence just opens itself to missreading. In that sentence it could be the writer or just as easily be SCO that claims Linux is based on the proprietary Unix operating system.

    Of course you could use Spamnix which implements SpamAssassin as a Eudora plugin. The beta version includes Bayesian filtering.

    Well if you own an older Plam or Spingboard you can go to Pacific Neo-tek and get you own remote plug-in module. Though at $45 + taxes and shipping, and with the small PDA screen, only a gadget freak would use it.

    After using it for a bit I am back to my usual collection of remotes. I find that I need tactile feedback in my controls. I might try it again when I buy a new PDA and can use my old one just as a remote.
