    So the police make a bunch of arrests among large crowds of people then drop the charges later.

    I really don't have a problem with that. It is a widely practiced tactic in highly charged crowds. If the DNC had been held in Austin Texas the same thing would have happened.

    As for the inventing of stories, the only mention of that was in one case where footage showing him not doing anything was removed. That could have easily been due to brevity. I don't know. I wasn't there.

    Frankly the link to Ted Rall as a source really just lowers the credibility of the story. He is the one who called Condoleezza Rice the Bush administration's "House nigger" after all. I don't trust him, but that is just my opinion.

    My take on that story was that he spent the prime of his life sitting around feeling sorry for himself, and only had anything good happen after he was too old to really enjoy it.

    What effect does this bill have on the profits of the shareholders of Microsoft?

    It costs money to support, and it doesn't provide any benefit. Gates probally recieved an edict from on high that this was not something the company wanted.

    My college for one would. We have about 30 PCs devoted to letting students access the Internet, research libraries, and write papers.

    Currently these are basically mid-range desktops with almost everything possible locked down to prevent everything from the bumbling click all installation prompts luser to the third year "I want to uninstall windows from this machine and run my own custom coded OS." geek.

    If instead of an actual computer they could just present an Internet terminal, and remote word app for less than the hardware costs of the boxes they use now, they would jump at the chance.
