On: Possible Breakthrough for AIDS Cure

" The first time I Googled for it I got nothing. The second time, three seconds later, I tried I got a few results."

I did the same thing but kept hitting the search button. Sometimes I would get about 7 results, sometimes I wouldn't. Huh. Odd behavior. Bug? (sorry somewhat offtopic)

Re:MAKE IT related

On: Slashdot Index Code Update

Only put items in the gray area below the post which match the category of the post above it. e.g. 'IT: IE7 Leaked' would have only 'IT' articles below it in the gray area. 'Slashdot Index Code Update' post doesn't have a category so put an EMPTY gray area below it. Uniformity is good. Categorizing this is good.

Re:Irony

On: Jack Thompson vs Amazon?

I hit amazon.com looking for the book before I read the comments and saw the direct link. I search for "jack thompson" on amazon and I found his book above a list of many sexually oriented books. Especially gay male sexually oriented books. I think amazon is suggesting that jack is gay?

On: Blizzard's Warden Thwarted by Sony's DRM Rootkit

This reminds me of something a professor once taught me:

1. Someone creates a problem
2. Someone else finds a way to make the problem affect the creator (tie the problem to the creator)
3. The problem resolves itself
4. PROFIT!!!!

(sorry, made that last one up)

Re:Virtuawin not necessary

On: Pepping Up Windows

The Virtual Desktop Manager from MS Powertoys was aweful. I had a number of issues. From what I can recollect it would re-order the items in my taskbar and it would randomly close IE and/or Windows explorer windows. I had at least 2 or 3 other issues with it which caused me to uninstall it only days afterwards.
