Don't get me wrong I love the gmail interface, and for rich GUI applications where interaction is the rule rather than the exception this seems like it could well become popular.
But the devices which are going to be accessing the web in the future are not all going to be PC based devices, and the overhead of client side layer does not seem worthwhile.
If you want to be read anywhere in the world on any device, needing a javascript "engine" running in an iframe simply to say "hello world!" seems like a mistake.
well that's putting the cart before the horse. next time i'm in macdonalds i expect to see "ten tough pointed questions any person should ask about what to have for lunch (and the only answers you should expect.)
one of them will be "should be a bigmac" i'm sure.;>
... are you sure , - doesn't it mean (as is so often the case - "within the united states?" what about the British Library? What about the Bodelian at Oxford?
if a merger is vertical it tends to lower costs and is thus good for the consumer. arguably oracle/peoplesoft is vertical.
you are thinking of horizontal mergers. with the exception of JnJ- Guidant, and Sprint-Nextel (which i know little about), none of those listed are horizontal.
true - i'm no expert, but i would say that most enterprise customers are not going to be too chuffed about running their airline reservation system/power station/supply chain on gentoo's linux, or even for that matter debian's linux.
if something goes wrong then basically you need support, you need someone take liability and fix the problem. with windows that organisation is MS, with solaris it is sun, and hey at the moment, most of the time, with linux, it's red hat.

if you click on CPU under process list it orders the processes by CPU usage. if you have a virus or a worm it will alway float on the top
apart from firefox and the latest windows patches that method does the job of a firewall for me, and without throwing all my system resources and cash as x amount of commericial security apps.
not trying to be offensive or funny but this is really sad. you need a good crop of freinds to meet women. online dating is so shameful. you need to find a group of people you are comfortable with (a group of geeks?) and then through them you will meet women. talk to those women, develop freindships and see who is right for you. sooner or later you will find a woman you like. the internet is for other things.

i can't see the sale of the PC business has anything to do with this.
crapful.
not a word.
i was playing doom i on my 6600 this time last year.
I think the DOM they are referring to is a W3 standard not a MS one.

I remember years ago IBM were working on something similar called opendoc or something? billed as an MSoffice killer? what happened to that?
is it just more modern machines that do this - does the BIOS need to support it - or can you do it with any USB machine.

using CLEAN, a functional language no-body had ever heard before.
nobody got it to work (except a couple of russian guys?).
apparently the professor said that was the whole point of the assignment?
sorry, but this is the most pointless thing i ever saw.
fair enough for the guy, he probably enjoyed doing it and must love videogame music - but why show it on slashdot?

in unrelated news the US didn't have true universal suffrage until 1970 when the literacy tests on black voters were finally recinded.
