Darn you SlashEdsDoYourJob. The moment I read the article title, I knew this was a dupe but wanted to confirm my hunch. Did a quick search using Google and rushed back here to post the link. And here I find the first comment (at least the first comment visible to me) pointing to the original post. I hope you are happy. By the way, do you realize that if the Slashdot editors did their jobs, you would not have that nick? Mods, I hope this post get a good mod as I did not post a duplicate dupe comment even after I took the pains to do a Google search to confirm that this post is indeed a dupe. PS: The word that I got to type in to confirm that I am not a script was 'grieve'. How apt. -- I have no sig..*sigh*
Must learn to keep things secret...the site's slashdotted already... The page title is "A first look at Apple's Intel Mac". That's about as far as I got. Maybe it should be "Only the first can look at Apple's Intel Mac." BTW..where are the "Yeah, but can it run Linux?" jokes?
You dont have to know the command line and it is not a one way service. There are small apps like WinPopup and WinSent that use this service to send and receive messages. We use that all the time at the place we work. Very handy..And we are behind a firewall, so we dont receive messages from outside the intranet.
Reminds me of the Dilbert comic strip where an old man waves a piece of paper around and says "At last, I have formed a strategy that is acceptable to all departments. Now if only there were a way to reproduce text from one piece of paper to many."
Shouldnt it be
'There were massive quantities of Baryons in a super-heated gas cloud several hundred million light years away'
What is the chance that it is still there?
Well, the janitor did not pull the plug, but at a major airlines, the carpenter did. He wanted to plug in his electric drill and pulled the plug on the server and its power back up and every other wire plugged into a power source in sight!!! This came to light after it was reported to my company (we provide the software) that the system had crashed totally. We sent 2 people over and they came back laughing so hard that it took them 30 minutes to tell us what had happened.
With games increasingly becoming multiplayer and internet based, why have a price on the game at all? Is it not a viable business model to give the games for free (if played in a single player mode) and have a per session cost (99c like iPod music store) to logon to a central server and play the game with others? There would be no necessity for pirating the game then.

I think Microsoft misunderstood the concept of 'Not invented here'. 'Not to be invented here' seems their corporate stance.
