This doesn't have to do with BC++ Builder (I love the product and wish it was updated just to through in my opinion), but Borland is in no way dead. They just released JBuilder 2005 and Delphi 2005. Although Delphi is now geared towards.NET (IMHO a terrible mistake, before.NET everything was very very fast), it is still being made.
If you try to keep your program correct as it grows, it will be too easy to pinpoint a new bug. Only cowards do that. A real programmer writes the entire program and then digests it whole like a boa constrictor. Looking for a bug hidden in the last 10,000 lines is exciting but if there are only 10 or 20 lines, well, what fun is there in that?
Was this written by someone at Microsoft? What a waste of time
FreeBSD may be "dying" if by dying you mean not gaining very many new users. None the less, even if it is dying, that does not deny it of currently running quite a few servers including Yahoo and many more.
FreeBSD by the way is gaining more users, just at a slower pace than linux. Take a look here[netcraft.com]
Then you must be unfamiliar with the term "bankruptcy." If linux and Mac OS X take all the users from Windows, Microsoft will have nothing until it eventually spends all of its money and goes bankrupt.
claims that 10 years forward Linux and Windows will be the only OSs left in the market
Um...Mac OS X is only getting better and more switchers from Microsoft, and FreeBSD is still running a lot of servers around the world (and ones that don't go down).
I predict that in 10 years from now, Microsoft will be dead, linux and FreeBSD will feed off of each other making both extremely good choices (FreeBSD for server, linux for desktop). Then the competition will be between Mac OS X and linux for the desktop.
Don't you know, its a part of Microsoft's new security strategy. They are clearly implimenting their new security techniques in FlexWiki. Thank you MS for working so hard to bring security to our homes! NOT
Oh I guess I got it right the first time with DB then. I just saw someone else said death rose on a comment and thought it sounded right but like I said its been awhile
...but what is the point. This isn't/. quality news.
Now if you'll excuse me I have to go up in my space ship and hope DB doesn't kill me while I spin and throw up.
"Most edonkey users connect with emule, a gpl client for Windows"
I don't know about you, but I use the standard eDonkey client, why bother going with something not made from the people that made the servers for something as simple as a P2P client.
I have my right to privacy, if this passes, it takes away that right by forcing me to give away personal information. So all I have to do is take over Microsoft and set my laywers against the government to appeal dumb things like this that get passed.
for those of us still in college. I'm going into a computer science major and I will kill myself (or marry my indian friend which would result in the first choise) before moving to India.
I can't wait for all of those outsourcing companies to see the bad effects of it though, such as us not being able to understand a damn word their "tech support" people say. And even if we did understand them, its not like it would help because they tell you to do what youve already done 20 times in a row instead of listening to you or making sense....I'll calm down eventually but I'll always hate India
"One thing that did happen at exactly the same time was the reversing of the Earth's magnetic field."
Darn so the water hasn't always drained the same direction? Does the magnetic field being reversed actually affect anything important?

I just don't want to test that on a P1-166 with 128MB RAM, should feel like running OSX on PearPC on a Centris.
Do the good thing and switch to FreeBSD then

They were only using 16 of those 20 servers. With all 20 they were able to peak 61 teraflops. Check the article at CNET.

I really don't want to see what Kerry could do to it. I vote Bush in a heartbeat (just my opinion though)
I wonder how this will affect Bush's votes.

"if you are interested in a good software, leave this page!"
To go along with typical Microsoft software, I dub this crashware!!
Some Germans did it too awhile ago, the video is at tomshardware
Am I not entitled to an opinion of what should be here and what shouldn't? You have nothing to worry about I have no control over it.

Whoops, meant DR (death rose)...it's been awhile since I've seen the movie.

I used to have a dual 400MHz Pentium 2 workstation which was probably the same weight as yours.
My girlfriend has an IBM keyboard too and even that is heavy. Oh well they work great!
"They make solid machines"
Not to mention heavy as hell
My appologies, I typed it at 2:00am while I had a little too much to drink.
The next morning I was thinking about responding to myself however I did not
Enabling power management in the kernel would help. You are most likely comparingn linux w/power management vs FreeBSD w/o
FreeBSD has never been dead. It isn't heard of as much as linux however it is used in many cases such as being the server that runs Yahoo.
Gentoo's portage is actually based on FreeBSD's ports system which continues to grow at a great rate.
If i was a mod I would mod you troll for not knowing anything about it before posting...
