Apple will take a tip from the old Lucas Electric company that made generators and starters for British cars. To keep smoke from coming out of pinholes in componets and wiring they switched to square electrons. The square electrons wouldn't go through the little round pin holes. Mac's will use square bit and bytes so that ordinary pc's can't pass them through. The round electrons of Windows and Linux will go through the square holes in 0SX 10 Mac PCs just fine. No problem - Mac on Mac's and Windows on Mac's but no Mac on Windows.
7.9, 8.0, 8.1, 8.1.1, alpha,beta, stable,concept car, prototype, production model; It's all the same.
Some one makes an executive decision as to what to label a moving target and call it a product. Then you have patches, field repairs, build changes, recalls, retro kits, etc. to fix that executive decision.
The two choices are have it now with bugs or wait till hell freezes over for a bugless software app or a trouble free bridge or car.
....and to confuse things even more names like Caldera, Caldera International, SCO(the SCO distribution channels and Unixware or Open Server stuff) all morphed through a Short lived company that existed only to be a name in their contracts called New Company. No one knows what went out of New Company to become part of the new Caldera or whatever it was that got renamed to SCO Group after the IBM lawsuite started. New Company disappeared after it was gutted of it's assets, whatever they were.
That little dot blown up with Photoshop looks just like an arm pit. My buddy spent his Navy duty in Norfolk and he thought that was the armpit of the U.S.A. so maybe things have changed.
Please, separate flames into catigories of (1) Navy (2) Norfolk (3) Photoshop (4) armpits (5) U.S.A. (6) Austin (7) Texas (8) buddys.
I am not convinced that the bugets for films are based on how efficent they want to be. The accounting can be skewed for different reasons. An actors contract based on profit can make profits undesirable as can the good ole' IRS. Make sure the extra's wardrobe includes a fur coat the same size as your wife's size and make the coat an expense and not a wardrobe department investment. Order real pizzas for props at snack time etc.
Other businesses don't do that do they? The local Self Help business in my town is non profit but the president's salary (founder also) is a little too nice.
Maybe we should ask the Poles? They did pretty good in the cold war era. I remember one of the Polish dissidents commenting something like: "computers sure are nice, It's a lot easier to break a cd into pieces than to have to eat paper".
I agree, the X Vindowing managers advanced in stages too. I would have liked to have seen twm, fvwm, mvwm, (and some Unix window managers that I never even seen) as well.
What's the big deal about that kind of engineering?
Hillbillys and trailer park mechanics do it every day. Ok, granted, they don't do it with life and death on the line and they don't do it by remote control 10,000+ miles away. They do sometimes get shot when they substitute a 22 cal. shell for an automotive fuse, oh well.
Torvalds did not write the software he uses (parts of it; yes). Like he himself said with the GPL when you write GPL software you get the benefit of 9 other software writers (or something like that). So, if you install Redhat or Mandrake and write one little program then the whole 2 gig of the software is yours. Just release the source code and remove the Trade Marks and call it Bob's Distribution.
I did almost solve that problem using Linux and a Geocities free web hosting page.
A Linux dialer application called Xisp has an option to reconnect on disconnect. I used that to connect to my ISP with. If you want a constant IP number then you are fscked.
I used a Linux HOWTO. It shows how to publish your constantly changing IP number to a GeoCities(or any other always on web page)by using a bash script that greps your current IP number and ftp's it to your GeoCities web page and edits the IP number variable in the page at each disconnect. I added that scrip to a "run at connect" config file in the Xisp application. If I wanted to know my ISP number for remote connection to my box I would just look at my GeoCites web page and get the current number.
The HOWTO even included a sample web html text.
Overheard in coffee shop: "Student said, Dad I think I will get my M.A. degree after I graduate. Dad said, after you get your B.A. degree, you will get a J.O.B."
In Mozilla, go to Tools, then to translate page and click once to get English. It's not really hard to do. If you are running IE, then I don't really don't know how to help.
Local mom and pop businesses have the same trademarks with no problem unless they get big enough to overlap. How many "Country Kitchen's" resturants have you seen across the nation?

You will know when you have had a cavity search; Rember the goatsx site picture? Ha!
SCOX lawyers must be French by that logic. A word to them has only one meaning on a particular day (they get to define it).
lemme see here; 1 + 1 = 2 in base 10; 1 + 1 = 10 in base 2; Who's or What's on base 3.

Congress needs to pass a law that MS has to make gold and silver cd's at a 16:1 ratio.

That's a prime example of Englishmen thinking a 100 miles is a long ways and an American (United States) thinking a 100 years is a long time. :=)

Overheard in coffee shop: "Student said, Dad I think I will get my M.A. degree after I graduate. Dad said, after you get your B.A. degree, you will get a J.O.B."
Ha! You sound like the BOFH who did this to a "user" at least once an episode.

You don't look like an ass; you are ANASS.

Same thought popped into my head too. "Ha!"
