We deal with this as well. My dad lives in Pennsylvania, but works in Delaware. As a result, we pay both states' income taxes. Each is not quite as high as it would be normally, but the total sum is more than we'd pay if he lived and worked in the same state.
There may be some sort of "crying wolf" protection in releasing a new exploit to a group like Bugtraq. If a company (Microsoft, Sun, Oracle, whoever) were inundated with exploits that don't actually exist, they may not get to the ones which actually do. With Bugtraq, an exploit can be verified by other people (unfortunately, some people do more than "verifying" it) before being sent to the company.
I realize I'm stretching it, but I'm playing Devil's advocate...
Yes, there's no way that dedicated terrorists would bother to watch arabian news stations that do broadcast this stuff.
Well, since I don't see many Arabian news stations on my VHF/UHF, I think it would be a lot harder for terrorists to get those stations. For that matter, I don't even see anything remotely Arabian/Arabic/Middle-Eastern on my satellite channel guide. The foreign channels are pretty much limited to a few Spanish and Japanese.
Yes, but parallel structures are commonly used to indicate meaning. For this example, it could be something like "MSN's content and Qwest Internet's services". The non-parallel structure grammatically (and logically) hides that meaning.
Not to be a jerk, but it's a similar error to the previous sentence. less should be fewer.
I doubt this is the best explanation, but generally few and many are used for items that can be counted, like cars, or errors. "I have many cars. I make few errors." Much and less are used for parts of a whole, or things that are measured. I'm not sure what you know gramatically in English, but you can also usually look at it as, as modifiers, many and few are (always?) adjectives, while much and less are either adjectives or adverbs.
Well, they'd have to kill the Mac version, completely re-do the doc formats for a newly revised PC version, and remove backwards compatibility in order to do any damage. Mac users are fine using whatever the latest office is for them (I think still 98, though I'm not sure). I still have '97 on the few machines I have running Windows...it works pretty well, and I've never seen anything that'd make me want to switch except being able to open newer documents, which I can still get eventually, just with out all the bells, whistles, and macro virii.
Yeah, I was aware that it wasn't directly taking the money...but what happens once bin Laden dies, or the organizations/individuals with frozen assets are prosecuted and convicted. Does the money then go to the government, get wiped out of existence, or what?
...or are unwilling to, as in the case of bin Laden. He's loaded, and indirectly bribing the government with all the money that they're "freezing." However, he actually has (in his head) good reasons and a strong stance against Washington.
I don't know what's happening in your case, but I've seen a lot of my friends' boxes after applying the built-in filter, and it takes care of at least 90% of the junk.
Doh. Thank goodness for touch-typing. I can hardly see what I'm writing anymore, but you're right...all the letters ARE really big, I just can't quite make them out. I think I'm going to get a cramp.
Ah well, off to get some more Advil for this headache. I have no idea where it's coming from.
They don't even hide it in XP:) There's apparently an option in the application properties where you can choose which compatibility environment you want to run the app in.
BMG forces CDs on us. I'm 17 now, and I'm already on my 3rd "X Free CDs" offer. Everytime I try to cancel, they call me back a month later and force a new savings on me. For the current one, I don't even have to buy another one later...it's just 5 free CDs, I think.

But what we need to be able to do, is say "New appointment..." or "To Do - Get groceries" and have the palm interpret the voice, and stick that into its datebook, rather than just recording and playing back audio.

There's an option you can add to your preferences file that will disable javascript window popups that aren't the direct result of a mouse click. I think it's the following line (from my prefs.js), but I'm not totally sure. Check mozilla newsgroups or the/. discussion for 0.9.4 for more info...

Think about the effects that pre-caching will have. Take September 11, for example. People could barely get to the major news sites, because of all the traffic. If every person who got through to the news sites had then tried to download every single link on the front page, the bandwidth requirements would have increased enormously for each user. Although the users who actually do get in and can successfully cache the site will perceive it as being faster, their multiple connections will cause maybe 50 people to be locked out of the site for every one who gets in. Precaching is really unnecessary, harmful, and even rude to the server operators.

It's good information for all the (undoubtedly many, as usual) people who didn't even read the article, and are just coming to post :)

Oh, come on...everybody knows that acronyms which actually use the letters in the phrases for which they stand are so last century.

Qwest and Microsoft® are working together to provide consumers with best-of-breed MSN content and services via Qwest's Internet infrastructure.
I think it goes more like that...makes more grammatical sense, anyway.
Nope, only a noisy electric pump.

For what it's worth (still not as nice as the one-click, I'll admit), you can use the window menu to move between/among windows.

Hmm...interesting, maybe. It's rather witty, not something I would have thought of. But it's not particularly insightful.
Gee, I don't know...maybe coverage in major news sites like Wired and /. ;-)
