Just remember you can impress people more by demonstrating average competence than you ever could from describing your superior achievements.
That's a pretty lame and condescending remark (apparently manners are no better in the 24th and a half century). So what if he's a bit cocky. He did say he's in high school, and he will obvioiusly broaden his horizons over time. Personally, I would not be more impressed if he demonstrated how average he is, and I'm not so insecure that I can't enjoy hearing about his accomplishments. Go get 'em, "kid"!
So now you will stumble onto forgotten items as unexpected search results rather than unexpected files in a directory traversal. So I think we still have conservation of fun.
(but seriously, I'm curioius to hear what you think are the most useful features that all these new-fangled window managers have that twm does not (or tvtwm if you like virtual desktop areas))
Oh, and it would be nice if people who are submitting articles would actually summarize the story rather than posting verbatim what the writer of the referenced article says.
Why? The summary is often either incredibly biased or just plain stinks. Posting a key sentence or two from the article isn't so bad, IMHO.
Was what he did wrong and illegal? Yes.
Was the law clearly on Apple's side? Yes.
Could it have been worse for the offendor? Yes.
Was the offendor coerced into making a public apology and serving as a scary example to others? You bet he was.
Actually, I guess it's weirder. I think when you open the slot, it lifts the drive head off the disk. So you could actually leave the disk in place in the drive while screwing up the writing:-)

How about with Apple Writer ][?
High Dynamic Range displays! These are pretty spectacular, combining LCD and LED.
Thanks for the laughs. I wish I had mod points :-)
I'm surprised that this article doesn't mention Ivan Sutherland's inspirational Sketchpad, from his 1963 dissertation.
I've got bad news for you -- the banks still store your personal information on computers for other people to steal.
I predict 2 years ago.

you could try Brook
It has almost as much compute power as my 3D graphics card!

Is there a such thing as accidentally campy?

We used to prefer the name WaitMart, for their fabulous check-out lines. Of course, WalMart is now irrelevant to us because we have Target.
if your readers can't get to the point without hitting the scrollbar, they'll just stop reading.

Maybe you need a higher resolution screen.
I call sheninigans. You said above that you wake well-rested.
This is apparently also the difference between people with and without children.
And now back to our regularly scheduled program.

Thanks for the explanation, Mr. Rumsfeld!
I expect them to stay alive just like Google does.
In other words, with ads.
I guess I should have mentioned that this program has lots of other plugins, including AOL, GMail, Hotmail, Juno, Lycos, etc.
You can use FreePops with the Yahoo plugin to avoid manually using the webmail interface.
Just imagine the stock os MSFT drop to 3/2 of the current value.
Most people would refer to that as a 50% increase, not a "drop".
You youngsters and your 3.5" floppy disks!

Actually, there has been quite a bit of research on two-handed input devices (Bill Buxton is well known for some of these studies, and has some videos available). They can be useful, especially if they are designed to give appropriate roles to dominant and non-dominant hands.
