    Haven't you heard of Google Toolbar? It's not only exclusive to Windows but also to Internet Explorer.

  3. XUL? on Telly MC2100, a Linux-based PVR/Media Center · · Score: 1

    The article mentions XUL (XML user-interface language), is that anything like Mozilla's XUL? Mozilla Foundation seems to be quite protective of its acronyms...

  4. Re:John, just do it! on Creative Pressures id Software With Patents · · Score: 1

    Have to agree, I would love to see iD remove support for Creative soundcards, or at least offer enhanced sound support for any other brand.

    haha, there's no other brand.

    Notice the lack of hair (I know it should be on the other side, but there would still be an outline) on the hand/wrist, and also why does everyone asume that a woman has to have long finger nails?

  9. Re:Solar powered? on Montreal Parking Meters Run Linux · · Score: 1

    I know downtown Portland (oregon) parking meters have solar panels on top of them, but I doubt they get all their energy entirely from them especially with northwest weather...

  10. Fahrenheit 451 on Clear Channel Plans To Roll Out Digital Billboards · · Score: 1

    This story kind of remind of Ray Bradbury's book: Fahrenheit 451. In the book the billboards were englarged and streched out because of increasing spead limits...

  11. Re:I think you need it built onto the motherboard. on Gigabit Networking for the Home? · · Score: 1

    I'm p[retty sure modern Southbridges have a dedicated link to the Northbridge (think VIA's V-Link, SIS' MuTIOL, or nVidia's nForce2 Hypertranport from southbridge to northbridge), so if IDE port are supplied by the Southbridge they get dedicated bandwidth separate from the rest of the PCI traffic. Also the same goes for LAN adapters and sound processing integrated into teh Southbridge (again, nForce2 APU).

  12. Re:poor command of the english language? on Latest Chernobyl Motorcycle Photos · · Score: 1

    Exactly. Before Soviet Union solapesed, almost all TV, radio, many books were in Russian. It was used in bussinesses and was a mandatory subject in school alongside another foreign language. Howevr, it's wrong to assume Russian and Ukrainian are very similar (another reply to parent). Ukrainians understand Russian very well because of the above reasons, but Russians can barely make out anything said in Ukrainian.

  13. Re:firefox on Making IE Standards Compliant · · Score: 1

    Actually, Firefox uses the same Gecko(tm) rendering engine as Mozilla 1.6. The only difference between Mozilla Suite and Mozilla Firefox is that Firefox is stand-alone browser with a different user inferface and features. So, Firefox has not reached 1.0 yet, because of uncomplete features and UI, not because of the rendering engine.
