Really? So Microsoft Word accepts LaTeX input? That would be nice.
But to say one prefer output that ISN'T what will be printed to output that IS what will be printed is irrational.
It's not so much the screen appearance as the method of input that I prefer, By the way, does Microsoft Word even provide device-independent output? Also, given the necessity of compiling LaTeX source, I doubt that it will ever be WYSIWYG. But that's OK, I know what I'm getting
Slashdot Mirror
I finished school well before I ever had a laptop.
You'll get my Freecell when you pry it out of my cold, dead hands!
What about this?

The Carly Fiorina Effect?
First of all, Kennedy wasn't from Chicago. Second:

Kennedy won 303 to 219 Electoral votes. Swapping the 28 electoral votes of llinois alone would have left it at 275 to 247.
Besides President Obama, what other president hailed from Chicago?

Apparently, the new OS is going to be a monolithic Unix-alike called "Bollocks" and it's going to take Google and Amazon head on in the cloud space.
FTFY
The copiers are failing to copy numerals properly.
Deliberate misinterpreting of the words of your correspondent is a poor debate technique. Especially when it requires you to have misread a word.
what else could "The typing can be the same in both cases." mean? And what word did I misread?
Right. Which is of zero relevance to the "designed layout" vs "auto-layout" topic of discussion.
You are treating the topic of discussion too narrowly.
As firefox disallows the disabling of javascript, perhaps TOR users should avoid firefox.
It will post them on slashdot.

Nevermind
Complex equations and charts are something where you do constantly want to see what you're going to get whilst you are editing.
No. I prefer typing the markup. I know what I'll get from LaTeX.
I can globally disable javascript on firefox: edit -> preferences -> content -> uncheck the enable javascript box. I don't know about per site.
MS Word dominated TeX
And how many math journals accept Microsoft Word compared to how many accept LaTeX?
Yes, but providing customer support isn't as fun as programming.
I have GNU emacs on my Win 7 partition. Does that count?
Can you set it to 1280x720?
I believe Excel 2007 uses AVERAGE for MEAN.
But how much money would there be to deal with such requests?
I can install GNU software on Windows 7. Should I call it GNU/Windows 7?
If someone botches math that badly on a tech site such a Slashdot, I will respond.
Earth is 40,000 km around at the equator making 45 degrees north latitude only 20,000 km around.
Gee, in my reality, the cosine of 45 degrees is roughly 0.7071, making the 45 degrees north latitude circumference closer to 28,300 km.
