LearningSpace is an add-on to Domino specifically designed for distance learning. You can use the teacher/student model as well as the self-pace model (and the hybrids in between).
As it runs on Domino, you can have either browser based clients or use the Notes clients. Domino is available for Linux and there are still persistant rumors of a Linux Notes client. --
Not just movies and TV. Print adverts as well. Whenever there's an ad for some kind of computer related product (DSL, webpage, etc), and the ad company decides to use a 'screenshot', most of the time it's an Mac screenshot. This is because most of the design companies use Macs for their designing.
Everyone knows that most people use Windows, so you'd think they'd use a Windows theme... --
Yes, but in that sense, from one slice, you would only be able to jump to two other slices, e.g. the left and right ones in this example. But as you can jump to the other two adjacent slices, it becomes "4-D" --

I realise that not everyone uses Javascript, even without downloading the slashcode I'd be 99.99% sure that there wasn't any Javascript on/.
That's why I made the little disclaimer that I didn't know perl. If I did, I would have used perl, but as I don't, I used whatever language I do know...

I would have thought that it would be compatible with 'upgradable' modems. After all, what is the point of an upgradable modem if it isn't upgradable everytime they bring out a new standard.
True. True. I was one of the 300,000 users who was banned. I didn't kick up a stink about it. My consequences was that I had to create a new account. But I've learnt my lesson. I no longer share MP3s through napster. I just have the one dir where my downloads sit.
Any why? Because I was sharing one (Literally One.mp3) Metallica song.
I'm still a fan. I buy the CDs, I went to their concert. I'm just waiting for the S&M DVD to come out and I'll be even happier. -- Chris
Now if I actually downloaded the spec myself and was a bit more switched on than I'm normally, I'd think:
"Why is a specification, i.e. a document, distributed as an executable file?"
I would have probably right-clicked on the file with the intention of "Checking for Viruses" and lo' and behold, I would see the "Open in WinZip" menu option. Seeing this I would have selected this option as my Add/Remove programs list is full enough as it is. There! Bypassed the EULA! -- Chris

That's all I did, searched through the registry for Napster and under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Napster there is a key with my username. I just deleted this and when I restarted Napster I could create a new account. This time I've learnt, don't share files.
Funny though, when I started Napster the first time after being banned, it automatically upgraded me to Beta 6, but it wouldn't let me connect. It didn't actually tell me I was banned because of the Metallica thing, I just couldn't connect. And because I'm behind a firewall, they couldn't be banning based on IP.

Especially with the DVD releases. From what I can gather, they have two people filming on the sets all day, every day of filming, just for the "Making of..." documentarys. So there's going to be LOTS and LOTS of extra footage.
This is the way Peter Jackson has worked on all of his films, he keeps a video-diary so he can look back at it all.
I dunno whether I could sit through 6+ hours of audio commentary from PJ though...:)

Err, penguins come from the Antarctic which is South, depending if your definition of up is the opposite to the standard.

I bought my player back in January and the store I got it from (big chain store from Aussie) had multizoned all of the players it had on sale.

If you didn't ask for multizone, they wouldn't have told you and it would have been a nice surprise when you found out!

Look at the colour depth of the video card on that NIC:
What resolutions does the video support?
The NIC displays at 800 x 600 resolution with 65,536 million colors.
Verbatim from their FAQ.
