  4. Re:Format wars or something more fundamental? on Open eBook Forum Courts Controversy Over Formats · · Score: 1

    eBooks did not flop due to format wars, but due to portability. You cannot use them anywhere but your computer.
    I bought an eBook for a class i took, i realized i spent more time printing things out to read than reading it on the screen.
    Dont understand why we need a brand new format for eBooks, when PDF is soo wide spread, and can easily be adapted for eBooks.

  6. Re:Exposed Cookies? on New IE Bug Hides Real Site Address · · Score: 1

    IE knows the real site, For example if you have windowsupdate.com%01@www.slashdot.org The url will display windowsupdate.com but pointing to slashdot.org. But say you had windowsupdate.com in trusted, and slashdot.org in restricted, the zone IE operates in is still restricted. This is because i think that VC interprets the character as a EOL thus not showing the rest of the URL
