M$ won a lot of battles like this one
-- the spreadsheet war with Lotus
-- the word process war with wordperfect and the likes
-- the presentation war with corel and others
-- the infamous broser war
-- media player wars
It (generaly) lost server wars, where the user os
was not a leverage.
the os leverage for seach engines is smaller vs desktop aplications, and hopefully the user base
is less clueless by now.
na google is no pussy cat.
Fully agree. Until the big OEM brands get it (fully) or the competition authorities do something serious about Microsoft-OEM contracts, all these remedies will be jokes
I agree with this, provided there is proper notice
in the DVD.
imho, to limit the freedom to write code, reverse engineer or market devices because they can be use for "piracy", is wrong and set dangerous precedents.
To honestly sell something that will physically degrade, it just business as usual. Degrade after consumption is what happens to most goods around.
With this I might (or do, in general) agree. But what is the point of charging different prices and saying "sorry, this song is for US downloaders only"?
There is no point in having national versions of
a download service (only to protect monopolies and rip consumers off).
Even less point in having EU country specific sites.
Just like dvd zones, these barriers are (hope)
doomed. As it is I will not spend a sinply cent in it.
Sorry to insist but afaik what is truly distinctive
about GSM and CDMA is that they are digital,
with all its implications (capacity, security, endless possibilities).
CDMA belongs to Qualcomm, and GSM belongs to no one (see here).
3 consecutive stories involving the Netherlands --

Google IPO Swami (dutch auction)

This is 30% (3/10) of/. first page stories. And they are all together!
as far as I know CDMA is just a proprietary implementation of the same technology used by GSM (an open standard used pretty much wordwide ex-US). Both digitaly code and packet swith the signal.
You are quite right.
The particularty of A0 standard is the ratio sqr(2):1
which is the only ratio that allows half of it to keep the same (aspect) ratio. You could measure it
in inches on any other lenght measurement unit.
The issue is that if you reduce lines (say a drawing) so that the area
is half of the original, you are
reducing the lengh of the lines by
sqr(2), not by 2.
This is why photocopy machines have this inintiutive ratio of 1.42 X
reduction.
This is the only ratio where half its area keeps the same proportions.
It is not a convention.

For those who care litres per 100 km = 235.2146 / mpg
Bravo! Too bad the mainstream thought is still so much b-s and you re-elected the fraudster&killer.
A little bit more courageous than the pussy settlement of the Bush Admin 3 years ago.

Just US thing
much in the same way as many times "America" is used as meaning the USA.
also used by the power puff girls
apparantly it may be harmfull or at least have some negative effcetives on ground cells, not on the plane. The airliners just bullshit some excuse.

"this posting included" ? This is public access anyway.
This looks beautifull. But is it based on solid sources?

c They showed this was not the case. MS server was rendering different content just
for Opera.
But was it a trademark? Greed + "IP" = Desgusting
