Well, certainly no way that will net you better results and more accurate information, no. But a quick Google search garners a few ad-ridden possibilities, such as http://www.iphone-hacks.com/. However, I'd recommend you buck up and start digging through the dev forums.
Well, it sure isn't being posted YET. Looks like they're still a few hours out, at a minimum. And I'm sure Apple is working on crafting a patch for the TIFF vulnerability right this very second.
From the article:
# Thus far the hack isn't entirely without issues. We're still trying to determine exactly what's what, but we've lost read and write access unexpectedly. This may or may not be a problem with our machine or device, though, and not necessarily the hack.
# We did not test this method on an iPhone, but technically there should be no difference in the effect. Side note: your v1.1.1 iPhone would, at this time, need to be activated to load the TIFF. (How else are you gonna load it?) This is supposedly being worked on.
Somebody needs a quick and dirty database to use for a week to analyze some data, and 3 years later, it's still running, because somebody thought it would be easier to keep on using access than to upgrade to a real database.
Because once they realized they'd need a name MORE CLEVER than "Microsoft Office" and "Open Office dot Org", they threw in the towel. Seriously, it's an office suite. Its name doesn't need to elicit feelings of euphoria or anything.
I'm really far more thrilled with getting the REST of KDE over to Windows than KOffice. I mean, it's really great that we'll have that option available to us and I will surely use it as often as possible on this work laptop, but without supporting the MS "open" xml doc format, chances are I'm going to need to use MS Office a whole lot more than I'd like... But thank GOD I'll finally have knetattach without firing up vmware!
Anyways, I have a question. I can't think of a single good reason to use Access (or Access-like databases). Can somebody tell me what sort of applications would actually call for a wretchedly limited application like that?
"While adjusting your font sizes, I noticed you were running linux, so I've upgraded you to the Microsoft Vista(tm) Operating System. For your own health, of course. If your insurance doesn't cover that, perhaps you'd be interested in switching to MSInsurance? A monthly subscription also provides some limited protection against viruses."
This comment has probably been made by somebody else already (I didn't check), and since I'm about to walk out the door I neglected to read TFA, so go ahead and mod me redundant/offtopic/etcetera.
This is an excellent way for MS to lock in the Hospital/Health Service market. If they require IE to interact with this website, they're in like Flynn; I can't think of many reasons a health services establishment would want to turn down a service like this.
What do you mean "there is No Such Agency"? This sounds _exactly_ like something the NSA would--ohhhhhh...
Yeah, over here at MY place of business we write in workarounds that defeat the entire purpose of our software... based soley on the whims of a couple of our customers. Happens all the time.
Also, myspace.com still shows up on the first page of results for certain queries. Seeing as how javascript is required to adequately browse the site, I doubt that would fall under the "accessible" category.
Google already indexes myspace. And does a pretty good (TOO good) job of it. Search for some miscellaneous band or a quote and you will almost certainly find a few myspace pages listed in the first ten results.
And given that this is myspace we're talking about, these results are garbage and contain absolutely no pertinent information regarding my search topic... I should start appending "-myspace" to my queries.
Point is, there really isn't any useful information on myspace. At all. So the extent that google indexes it now should be more than sufficient.
Yeah, "They believe movie fans will prefer to pay a reasonable price for a legal downloaded movie".
Regular DVD price for a movie you can play on ONE machine? They're underestimating the importance of being able to watch it where-ever you want. For a few bucks more I could order the real thing online. With next-day shipping.
I tried out FreeBSD last year and loved it. Until I couldn't manage to get an oracle client installed on it, which pretty much killed its usability within my company. Supposedly I could have done it with some hard work and diligence and the Linux Compatibility port, but I just wasn't up for the challenge.
I agree with the parent post, it is all about weaning the users off of Windows. I used to play pc video games constantly, admin IIS, and I had a (psychological?) dependency on several win32 applications (which I still haven't been able to get to run under wine). Eventually I chose to make the jump, dual-booting my desktop and loading Linux on my server. Over time, the irritation with booting into windows just to play a game for a few hours started to overshadow the benefits of playing the games. About one year after delving into Linux, my windows hard drive died. That proved to be the impetus to drop Windows altogether for several years. Now I keep a crappy 500MHz laptop with no network connection around to play CivIII, and that's it.
Give the users a chance to start using another OS as their primary OS and, if they stick with it long enough to get comfortable, they'll switch.

Indeed, that is exactly what I've experienced.
Ah, thank you. I've always dealt with situations for which an HTML interface was well suited.
Please read the article. First paragraph mentions Windows, Mac OS, and Linux (thanks to QT4)

BSD/Linux running under vmware, maybe?
here's hoping your grandmother gets at least one more computer.
...or an advertising company waiting for somebody to mis-type a URL and then get buried under a mountain of advertisements?
"Is Valve turning into Microsoft by introducing features that are not needed or wanted by the community, or are they merely spicing the game up?" Yes.

That's the only problem I ran into though.

Bear in mind that 10 years from now you'll still be saying "If only I had bought that Apple stock 10 years ago..."

yore = past; elapsed time
Hmmm, yes. And FrontPage comes to mind.
