It looks like Opera added the SDI (tabs) in v6.0, around the beginning of 2002
I just checked. Opera 5.02 (released dec. 2000) has tabs, version 3.62 does not. I would have checed version 4 too, but it's not available from Opera's archive.
BTW: I'm posting this from 3.62 on Linux/Wine. Works like a charm:)
esentially as if the professor was your supervisor.
The problem is, this wont teach you anything about real life, until you get a professor that hates that class and are doing anything he can to sabotage it. Luckily, that happens all the time...
But where is the FBI supposed to buy COTS to automate their workload?
Document management and search solutions can be bought from a variety of vendors. Sure, they probably have some pretty unique requirements, but any vendor with some business sense should be willing to incorporate some changes into the product for a sufficiently large customer.

Maybe this is what the author really meant to say: When it comes to developing software today, reinventing the wheel should be a last resort, not a first instinct.

great ideas will walk out of your business to start there own
Some companies encourage just that. Often it isn't practical for a company, unless it's a huge one like IBM, to pursue every great idea that comes along. The obvious solution is to help the person(s) with the great idea to set up his/their own little company. Funding, office space, etc... Once in a while the great idea turns into a great company, and a great asset for the mother company that still owns a sizable part of it.
I don't understand peoples' (or maybe just slashdotters') obsession with removing IE. You don't have to remove it. Ignoring it is enough. It's not like it occupies a significant portion of your 300GB disk anyway...
On the other hand, removing windows itself, that's something I can understand:)
The Google appliance and Fast's system are hardly comparable. This Google box max out at 50K docs and are meant for low trafic (probably less than one query per sec) intranet searches. Using Fast for something like that is total overkill. If you on ther other hand are someone big, like IBM, Dell or AOL, get hundreds of queries each second, or maybe you have a few hundred million docs, then it's a different matter. Another thing is that Fast offer a platform that you can (or pay someone) to modify to your needs. The google-box is just a box, period.
You just posted post number 11.349.404. This thing has a limit of 50.000 documents. Calculating the total price is left as an exersice for the reader. (Hint: NOT CHEAP!)
Pluss, slashdot has about 800.000 registered users. Are we certain these boxes (meant for small to medium sized companies, remember) will handle the load?
If the only reason companies like Yahoo!, Google, MS, etc. are entering the desktop search arena is in order to generate ad revenue...
Wake Up! What business do you think Yahoo and Google are in? How do you think they make money? Does just having a bunch of people use your free search engine/instant messenger/web-mail/whatever just magically generate revenue? No, these comapnies are in the Advertising Business. They sell advertising space. Everything else is just a way to get you to watch (and hopefully click) their ads.
Of course, that doesn't mean that they can't be very nice companies with great products. For google especially, that seems to have been a successful strategy. Just remember, "be nice" is not their business plan.
I've been using 8.0b1 (linux) for a while now, usually with 5 - 15 tabs open, email, rss, news, various skins, running for days without shutting down. No crashes, no (notizable) leaks, no freezes, lots of happines.:)
The editors mentioned by the grandparent are unix only/mostly. Have you ever tried opening a unix-line-ending text file in notepad? That 100k document becomes hard to read when everything is in one single f***ing long line of text
write.exe is the ultimate in MS Windows word processing technology.:)

a barometer doesn't create pressure, it just measures it.

Is that what Enron did? :)

In other words, you can't opt out of Digital Rights Management. Their "digital rights" are still managed.
I'm sad now... :(
If they did it just for fun, then they would be hackers, right? :)
If you're allowed to opt out, then there isn't much point to it, now is there?
Norway: "Denmark, we want Greenland back!"

Yes, but OTOH, if Apple wants to improve that software, then they are working for me for free also. Just see what's happening with KHTML/Safari.
It's not slavery if you get to keep (and share) the fruits of your labor.

In my opinion his opinion is fact.
