I would suggest using Macromedia Dreamweaver... it's what we use where I work and essentially all of our content entry involves pasting in content from Word documents supplied by clients. Dreamweaver is pretty good for formatting and working with stylesheets.
"If a customer attempts to activate Windows XP with an OEM key from a COA, they will be directed to call customer support specialists to obtain an override code - provided they can prove that their copy is legitimate by answering a series of questions."
Dude, on a computer, you ARE the pilot, whether you like it or not. There's no such thing as a "passenger" or anything less than a "pilot" when you're using a computer.
Dude, idunno about the guy you're replying to, but as far as I'm concerned, the OS is called "Windoze". I only call it "Windows" when I have to have some sense of 'professionalism' or whatever. I type "Windoze" without even thinking about it.;)
Um... I 'dived' (dumpter dived) a 400mhz celeron PC from behind a computer store last year... only components missing were the HD and video card...
You'd be amazed what kind of shit people throw out... I have found countless =233mhz Pentium-class motherboards with CPUs (and even more 486 mobos), tons and tons of keyboards, quite a few monitors (best one was a 15" perfectly functional monitor capable of 1024x768 pixel screen size)... Oh yeah I've also got two pentium-based cash register machines here that I 'dived'...
Okay, here's what you do, if you really need your "data" and so on:
-Take ANY Linux distro install CD. -Take ANY Windows install CD. -Find two PCs of similar hardware makeup. Install the Linux distro on one, install Windows on the other. -Give them each a direct connection to the internet. -Go for a lunch break, do something else for 30 minutes.
When you come back, which computer is still working properly? Which one has viruses and spyware installed all over it, without you *ever even using the computer*?
Okay, well that is now about the sixth time the book Snow Crash has been either recommended to me, or else mentioned in some manner that made me want to read it.
Funny, if it's that large you'd think I would have heard of it by now, seeing as how I've heard of and used far less-known P2P/file-sharing software like Hotline, Carracho and KDX...
"What part of SIM-U-LATION is not understood, here?"
Extra emphasis added to the U there just in case people weren't aware of just how much importance that "U" really has. Careful guys, don't forget the "U"!
Um, what I'm more curious about is why the hell they arbitrarily chose this "57-year-old Sims 2 player from Pflugerville, Texas".
I mean, it doesn't get much more obscure than that. Does this woman happen to be a well-known member of a Sims 2 community site or something? Or did they just do a google search for "arbitrary Sims 2 player" and then interview one of the people randomly selected from the list of results?
Hey look, it's the new EA Games project: SimAmerica! Strike down the nihilistic non-God-worshipping Sims with fiery vengeance! Watch as close-minded fanatics start cults in your name! Laugh at the countless families pouring forth their income to support you, when you clearly have no need for their fickle currencies!

To everyone who is bashing Apple's "single-button" design:
No one cared about your dislike of the single-button design 15 years ago, no one cares now.
Thanks for coming out, though.

Last time I reinstalled Windoze was at 3 AM or something.
Last time I reinstalled my OS was at a similar time of night (morning?), but I installed Debian Linux that time.

Yeah, that or a REALLY GOOD batch...

No shit eh, it's pretty sad when a linux workstation has a longer uptime than your average Windows Server... heheh

Yeah, it was more of an intentionally redundant question heheh ;)
Dude, Bill Gates probably runs Linux on his PC...
"When was the last time they released anything truly innovative? Word 5 for Mac?"
Umm... maybe DOS? Did they even actually make *that*? I mean, I was GOING to say Windows, but.. you know...
Okay, here's what you do, if you really need your "data" and so on:

I rest my case.
What? Is this guy seriously trying to claim that you can gauge a product's level of security by how many security flaws have been FIXED?
Holy crap, someone needs to lay off the drugs... seriously.

;)
Why don't I have this freakin book yet?
Funny, if it's that large you'd think I would have heard of it by now, seeing as how I've heard of and used far less-known P2P/file-sharing software like Hotline, Carracho and KDX...
Ironically, our posts could have been swapped without anyone noticing.... heheheh
Sweet, I've actually had that book recommended to me many times... obviously I definitely have to check it out :)
You restart your machine once a week? Tell that to these guys:

Sorry, I couldn't resist...
What is that from? It sounds pretty cool... Neuromancer-esque ;)

No kidding, I started getting pissed off that it took 2-5 hours to microwave a TV dinner...
