Works great. Just type hwd, let the thing work for a little while, and when that's done type hwd -h and you get a complete list of what you have to do get your stuff working without going through a zillion man pages. It even builds it's own xf86config based on your system, no more xf86config hell \o/
Anyone knows if there's a similair program like this for other distro's? Because I want to try some other distro's like Debian and such but I don't like figuring out every little shitty detail everytime because some programmer decided he didn't want a.config on the standard place etc.
That is correct, the parliament was misinformed by the minister and therefore they voted in favor of the legislation. And now the Minister of Eco. Affairs claims it was an error in his word processor. I say, away with that lying bastard (Excuse my language here I'm really pissed) a lying minister is something that CANNOT be tolerated in a modern and decent democracy, and I believe The Netherlands is a state that did a very nice try to be such a democracy (It works better than most democracies around the world I can guarantee you that much) but this is a thing you must not accept.
And I'm glad or parliament is not in favour of this, thank god there are some sensible people in politics *knocks on wooden thing*
It's not like they're going to put a direct FireFox port on their phones or something.
Ofcourse there is going to be a special phone browser, just like Opera has. At least, the Opera browser I had on my p800 was no 4MB+ iirc.
but good luck getting a form or e-banking page in which you can enter an IBAN acct number - and if you, the bank, or the receiver screws up,
Well one of the biggest banks in the world, the Dutch ABN-Amro, does it. And it works like a charm. You just copy paste the IBAN number in the little insertfield write a comment, type the amount of money you want transfered *click* and your done. One day later the other guy has the money.
This really works well, and if you just copy paste the IBAN number it is very hard to fuck things up.
Something that might explain this is the high VAT (Value Added Tax, or Belasting Toegevoegde Waarde in Dutch but you don't care about that:P).
In The Netherlands 19% of what you pay for a normal consumer product is tax. And, correct me if I'm wrong here, in the US iirc the highest VAT-rate is about 4,6% in NewYork.
So that explains the gross of the price differences.
Scanning?
The place where the catalogs get pressed gets a digital version (.pdf like I guess, I'm not that deep in the pressingbusiness.) and the only thing that Google has to do is convert that format to a.jpg and they're done:)
...in our neighbourhood, also in the Netherlands. It's a little network with about 16 houses attached. There is cat5 running through the "dakgoot", (Horizontal rainpipe between the houses don't know the English word for it.) there are 2 16-port switches on each side of the street and there's a cat5 running under the street to connect the 2 switches.
And this is all connected to a 4Mbit ADSL account. It isn't the fastest solution you can think of ofcourse but it's more than enough for the casual surfer that checks it's email twice a week:P
I couldn't stand the very irritating firewall policies (No decent BitTorrenting is hell I can tell you that much.) so I got myself a Demon 8Mbit:)
What I reccomend by the way is that you take your internet from 2 different ISP's and preferably 2 different network supliers (A KPN and/or BBned and/or BabyXL connection.) so you always have your internet connection available:)
Yes it is very difficult to not have memorycards you can lose/break and that everything gets saved to your console without any trouble at all.
I always get confused by easy things.
The only thing in your post that makes sense is the part about the slickness (And even that is probably caused by my bad English:P) a classical old fashioned 3,5" HD will probably bloat the design a bit yes. But there is more than the 3,5" option, look at the ipod, ain't exactly a huge device now is it?:) And still you've got a 40Gig HD inside.

You don't have any idea how many people call their browser "The Internet" do you? :P

I guess IE7 is this little thingy, it's IE6 but with better CSS handling more standard compliant etcetera.
Myeah I guess that a company who can search the entire web, and more, shouldn't have any problem baking a little .jpg on the fly :P

Yeah well Laurens-Jan is getting a bitchslap by parliament and the small/medium companies' lobbyists according to this article and he should be :]
