    nope, if you register it it has fullscreen support. of course im not recommending you actually pay for it

  2. Re:almost unrelated Quicktime question on iTunes 4.2 and QuickTime 6.5 · · Score: 0

    really doesnt answer his question about saving people who download his movies from needing a non-standard player. I'd say mpeg or DivX. DivX isn't really standard, so to speak, but practiaclly everyone already has it so they can watch their downloaded movies and spite the MPAA

    I'd be curious to know what % of the boxes involved in ddos'ing SCO are windows boxes and what % are *nix

  6. Re:Stupid for desktop/home users on Microsoft: Patches, Patches Everywhere! · · Score: 0

    why does when microsoft releases a patch affect when you, the network admin, deploy it? what is stopping you from updating machines once a month regardless of when MS actually releases them? seems kinda stupid to me

  7. Media Player Classic on Microsoft: Patches, Patches Everywhere! · · Score: 0

    Yeah, you should upgrade To Media Player Classic
    kicks the shit out of MS's offerings, can even play real and quicktime

  8. Re:So? on Microsoft Retires Windows 98 · · Score: 0

    as has been previously commented, xp and 2k do a fine job of running games. heck, when was the last time a game was written that the nt kernel wasnt its target platform? I'd like to hear of ANY game released in the past 3 years that runs better on 98se than on xp. go ahead, prove me wrong

  14. Re:Expocity + X Compositing = cool on Expose Metacity With Expocity · · Score: 0

    All I can guess is that they are taking snapshots when the window manager knows windows are unobscured.

    sort of... they are definately taking snapshots, but it isn't too strict on the unobscured part. I was playing around with this before, opened a bunch of stuff to try it out using the gnome menu, hit alt+tab and a lot of the windows showed the gnome menu overlaying them (obviously from where I had opened the next program and not see the window since)

  15. Re:nice, but... on Expose Metacity With Expocity · · Score: 0

    errr... the windows managers job is to manage windows. sounds to me like the functionality in question does just that. impelmenting it elsewhere would NOT be the unix way of thinking
