I was talking with a friend about who even knows what the new office features were/are. So right now Im in the process of seeing if I can survive with Excel 3.0 and word 2.0 . The killer is other than having to have other people resend with old versions in email (which they can, and will do) its surprising not only are the old versions blideningly quick, but with wow being able to run them in individual instances, they are actually a-ok.
I think that is also why offic2003 is facing such a low penetration in the teens. So if you know wp5.1, why not?!
before people fly off the handle on media rights, perhaps we ought to wait until it ships?
If anything its to prevent people stealing the OS. Until Steve abandons hardware (again) Im sure his duty to the stock holders to to protect that hardware investment.
Oh wait you dont want a fast machine to run OSX, what am I thinking.
Honestly you make no sense what so ever, please do yourself a favor and keep running linux, because if you ever did get a copy of osx the next thing you would be doing is crying about Aqua, and how its not X11 with 11,000,000 window managers, or how there is no KDE Gnome wars.
This is *APPLE* OSX will only run on APPLE hardware. Did you get that?
Let me repeat OSX WILL ONLY RUN ON APPLE HARDWARE!!!
Ok? Got it? If you really wanted OSX as much as you purport you would have bought a mac mini.
Oh I know $500 for a computer costs too much, and you just want to steal OSX and run it on you klone or dell.
Honestly go back to your Linux, and fight over your KDE or GNOME nonsense, and how Linux is loosing out just as Unix did wthat that CDE vs Windows nonsense, when infact it just canabalized the unix market in the 80-90s.
As for the DRM, what did you expect? Apple would just flood the market? Since you probably have never download or installed Darwin, I guess you have never noticed just how device driver poor it is, or just how un linux it is.
So put up or shut up, go buy a mac mini, or just keep plodding along with your x86, since you are too cheap to get a named OEM peice of hardware.
Dont they just import slaves to work the farms? I know they call it something more progressive like "day laborer" or someother nonsense like that, but honestly how many 'Americans' work the fields in America?
Either way I dont think the field people are in much position to debate what ADM would have to say, and earning their $350 a week, before expenses afterall, they are not exactly going out and buying disposable goods at Wallmart.
All the more reason for Archer Daniels Midland to gobble up the last reniments of the small farmer. Their constant needs for subsides & this kind of nonsense is the last straw...
is that Commodore snatched defeat from the jaws of victory with this one.
The real problems that plagued the Amiga was the lack of cheap hard disks from Commodore, Later in the Amigas life the lack of memory protection started to plauge the users too... If they actually released, standardized the platform perhaps it would have helped...
On the otherhad the killer is that everyone that has bought the IP has either died, or promised to do something with it, and done nothing.
As a plus Amiga's gave rise to smart GPU's, offloaded IO & a better less cpu centric design of cheap computers.
I have an IBM thinkpad 701c with 8mb of ram, Windows 95, and a cisco aironet pcmcia wireless card. Belive it or not its ok for telnet, rdp, and some IE 3.0... The one thing I like 95 over nt 4.0 is size.. OTOH nt 4.0 is definatly a nicer OS for machines with 16mb of ram.
Yeah Im guilty of taking one of these jobs down.. The guy was a total dick, and if the simulation is that involved, here is an idea, SAVE YOUR STATE time to time. Besides power failures do happen;)
Slashdot Mirror
well I did actually boot msdos 5 & windows 3.1 on my amd64.. so its not like it cannot be done..
Although I guess it would have been cool to run my win16 stuff in a win64 world, but I guess even Microsoft wants to cut the strings at some point.
I guess im either stuck in qemu, virtual pc, or god help me in upgrading.
well when it comes to spending their money. Now yours on the other hand, they bill for staples, and anything else they can justify.
This updates windows 3.1 to 3.11.
No it does not add networking, if you want that you want windows for workgroups, but Id recommend version 3.11
I think that is also why offic2003 is facing such a low penetration in the teens. So if you know wp5.1, why not?!
Honestly even SLS was bareley downloadable on a 2400 baud modem. It took me freaking 2 weeks in 1992 to get a barely usable system.
You got that?!
This is a bad day for people that think of the internet of a place to connect computers to work.

Some how Im guessing no.

Quick get an AXE!
'cause its' all about the Pentiums baby!

Its some scarry stuff! eh?
Aw you arent any fun! I mean this is /. for crying out loud!
I cant belive you got 2nd.... I feel so terrible with only 3rd. :/
