Hmm, well at least I can vouch that IE works very well on Wine/Cross-Over. So if that is what it takes, why don't you go ahead and install Cross-Over?
Since it is for business purposes, you really should try it. Cross-Over has an Active-X plugin for Mozilla too. Maybe that is what you need.
The only way to get a nuclear fired rocket approved, is to first build a coal fired rocket. The resulting cloud of smoke covering half the planet, will convince people that nuclear is better.
Steve should go to Esso and put a Tiger in his tank, then head over to the convenience store and get a box of Kellogs cornflakes, then take them all to court...
I frequently look things up on the various web sites of electronics stores, then drive to a real store to go and get it. That would count as several abandoned shopping carts, but I did actually buy.
There are other benefits to being an IEEE member. The publications is just one of them. So, publisher pays, dead tree subscribers pay, but web reading is free, would work for them.
Of course I'm paying for them - I'm an IEEE member.
IEEE is considering moving to a writer pays system and it makes perfect sense to do so in an engineering environment. It would allow IEEE to make the publications available for free on the internet, without having to administer the collection of small fees from millions of casual readers.
Publishing is a University and Research Institute 'thing'. The act of publishing and the act of reading mostly benefits them and them only. Therefore, it makes sense to make them pay for their own stuff.
Even though large numbers of engineers and the like read lots of scientific papers, it is mostly for general education and amusement and doesn't have any benefit whatsoever for the said engineer's day job. I have been reading IEEE publications for decades and the benefit to my day job was pretty much zero.
Since it is easier to charge the hundreds of university bound writers, than to charge all the hundreds of thousands of common readers - who only read the stuff for amusement - it makes economic sense to charge the writers and not the readers.
Yup, you are the only person here with a clue. VLANs, port to port security and deep packet scanning routers - that is the only way to handle the problem. Any other way is just a waste of time.
Go to the Fortinet web site. A FG100A unit in each dorm, together with HP2524 switches with port-to-port security, or a separate VlAN for each user, will turn the whole problem into a non issue.
"don't see how they can justify having a levy on media that can be used for assumed copyright infringement, and at the same time seek redress for copyright infringement"
Yup, that is why they are not sueing people in Canada.
"Say your in a spacecraft and you keep adding speed via rocket or something. How come you never make it to the speed of light? "
Your mass keeps increasing as your speed increases, because your kinetic energy increases and e=mc^2.
"There is nothing to stop you, you are adding an action, so how come you don't hit C or beyond?"
Your mass goes to infinity - that'll keep you.
"If you are moving faster than the speed of light (theoretically possible)"
No it isn't, see above.
"the shearing point (think of scissors)? It would have to exceed the speed of light."
That point is not the movement of matter, it is the intersection between two pieces of matter.
"the 3rd star in Orion's belt will never come to you here where the earth is now."
Yup, you'll have to do some flying, to get to a point where it will come to you. By 'standing still' you can go somewhere, but it will be hard to come back.
In space the problem is not a lack of propulsion. The problem is a lack of brakes. If you can figure out how to stop, then you don't need propulsion - you just wait for the place you want to go to, to come to you.
In Star Trek, space is sticky. When a spacecraft shuts its engines down, it comes to a stop. If that was true, then space flight would be very easy, since everything is moving at enormous speeds, so if you want to go somewhere, just stop at the right moment and wait a while.
Ask and your request will be answered. People who call 911, usually can speak and usually can tell where they are. That should take care of 99.9% of the problem.
Well, there are lots of people who believe in gods and evil spirits. The bottom line being that what you believe, isn't related to reality. Belief and truth are not the same thing. Actually, belief pretty much means that something is not true. Viri is a Latin word, you can go look it up yourself.
You know d00d, Mac OSX and Linux are just flavours of UNIX and Linux runs on anything from routers and cell phones, to desktops and mainframes.
According to IBM marketing, Linux is the most used OS ever and runs on more than 2 billion devices. That is more than 4 times the market share of MS Windows.
Despite all those billions of devices running Linux, there is not a single working Linux virus out there.
The difference is in the design.

Uh, you mean, you just send everyone a 300MB file, instead of a 20MB browser - have you seen the size of SP2???
Sure, but is most probably not the W3C compliance that is bugging you with that site, rather the use of Active-X.

So, has your wife tried Opera, or do you insist on using only one browser that won't work?
The nice thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from...
reinforced cement has been re-invented - woohoo...
Why? Running grep on that only takes seconds. One person can run thousands of searches in a few days.

The lawyers are unimportant in this case. The gov owns the judges...
So, will the NYT also charge fishmongers selling their wares in old newspaper?

Just gimme a space anchor...

Well, clearly, you have never used one, but it is all your loss, not ours...
