Strange. I just ordered a Dimension 3000 for mom for christmas and got a quote on the box with windows then asked for the n series pricing and got 30 bucks knocked off. Maybe you need to call.
Well, I tend to think it would. It's going to offset that same amount of his earnings and he's not going to have to pay tax on that. Probably saves him 35%. Of course he could have NOT made the donation and come out, oh, 167.7 million dollars ahead. Unless, of course, this donation moved him into a lower tax bracket. But for him to get into a lower tax bracket he'd have to lower his income to below $326,450 so I seriously doubt it did.
It *IS* an industry standard and the last thing someone wants to do is go hunt down and install another peice of software because someone (in this day and age of cheap harddrives and bandwidth) just HAD to squeeze a few more bytes out of compression.
There is an insane clown who stands on a podium in the middle of the computer room to make sure that all the code is extremely poor in quality. The clown holds his cock all the time for no reason.
Uh, it meant you had this thing called a 'font pallete' that had some fonts. And you could drop them RIGHT ONTO APPLICATIONS and it would change fonts and whatnot. Some applications were even programmed to PERSIST THE FONT CHANGE ACROSS PROGRAM LOADS! *VERY* Cool stuff, that WPS was.
Really. If you don't understand how that made OS/2 cool as shit and better than windows you can go fuck yourself.
My guess is that he was talking about version 3, which was out just about a year before 95 came out. And was also the one where IBM put a little bit of effort into marketing. If I remember from the commercials it was the "crash proof internet ready totally cool way to run your computer."
Give unto me a fucking break. What's a paper cost? If you can't afford the two bits swing through mcdonalds at about 11 and swipe on off of a table. Sit in starfucks and read one. If all else fails, then yes, go to a fucking library.

Yes, it would be great. It would kill flash. (Little else, though.)
Lastly, what I dont understand beyond the above question is... why arent Firefox, Opera, Safari etc... also affected?
Because the guy who owns the patent has stated that he is only going to sue microsoft.
Spawns a shell window now instead of showing it in the browser. IE7 Beta 2 Previw with XPSP2 at least.
Six Blades!
Obviously, if you had the necessary skills you could audit the code yourself.
Same can be said of closed source software. Just takes a higher level of skill to audit the disassembly of the exe's and dll's.
Alternatively they could pay someone to do the audit for them or just wait for someone else to blow the whistle.
They could use some more NEW games before they get too crazy with the classics.
What's Linux named after?

I don't want to give any money to Microsoft, but when I buy a new PC, I have to anyway.
Um, no. You really don't. Even Dell will sell you a PC without windows (and it does reduce the price). Call and ask about n-series machines.
Winnuke didn't have anything to do with NetBIOS (other than the fact that netbios left a port open that the attacker could connect to).
Connecting to any open port and sending OOB data would have the same results.
Um, most users of XP are not using it as a multiuser OS, so why should they "tear it down" and re-write it as one?

No, but a task manager would be a good canidate.

Why no frosty pisses? or failures. or slashbots?
In Korea only old people clone dogs.
It's karma burn wednesdaty!
American football or that off brand kind?
This is going to hurt. A lot.

Oh, he has his reasons.
Is there still a levy on that? Seems like they could use this to try and get rid of that . . .
What's the upload speed?
Loud sirens. How about you? I hope you're not counting on appliances that are plugged into your walls for them . . .

If they had done what the people wanted they would have done nothing at all.
Owners of competing media players and fringe OS lunatics excepted.
