  1. Re:Giving Away Windows Licenses? Give me a break.. on Microsoft's IE Team Leader Answers Slashdot Questions · · Score: 1

    Why don't you just download the standalone versions of Internet Explorer from Evolt? That way you can have ever version running on the same Windows install at the same time. Get them from:

  2. Re:Any Costs? on Getting Open Source to the Dialup Masses · · Score: 1

    Its completely free, you only have to supply your cds. Don't know if theres any plans to sponsor cds too. The distros they currently have are Debian Sarge, Fedora Core, Gentoo, Ubuntu, FreeBSD, Mandrake, K12LTSP, Whitebox Respin, SuSE 9.2 Pro, Knoppix 3.6 and Cluster Knoppix

  4. Re:Very Cool, But... on NASA to Attempt Mach 10 Flight Next Week · · Score: 1

    What can it get used for? How about getting a cheap way to actually get into space? Scramjets can actually used hydrogen in the atmosphere as their fuel. They could be used as propelsion to get vehicles into space where another power source could take over.

  5. Re:Is this just as fast as a web search? on Google Launches Desktop Search Tool · · Score: 1

    Its faster than web search. The results are basically instant and you don't have to wait for HTML to download if you're on a slow connection. It also has some nifty operators so you can search for specific filetypes and so on.

  6. Re:The horns of a dilemma... on Google Launches Desktop Search Tool · · Score: 1

    I think Googles initially targetting the mass market applications, with the MS Office suite and IE being the most used. I'm sure given time they'll add indexing support for Firefox, OpenOffice and the lesser used (although much better) applications out there. Things can only get better.

  7. He quit cos he didn't want to beat the record on They Killed Ken! · · Score: 1

    The record for most appearances on a game show is 75 and Ken didn't want to beat it "just for the sake of beating it". Just like when he intentionally drew with the daily winnings record of $52000. He just equalled the record and walked away.
