I couldn't agree with you anymore, I have seen this before many times that they will continue using IE over and over again even dealing with pop ups and spyware until the browser becomes unusable and doesn't even go to the correct url that it is being told to go to, and that is when they will take my advice and finally switch over to Firefox after its way to late and there machine is already so infested with spyware.
Now with college season coming up, there rich parents will have bought them a new laptop they will go on using IE until there machine runs slow or stops working correctly due to spyware and that is when I get them as a customer and wind up making some cash reloading there computer and putting Firefox on there machine:) so I'm willing to bet that Firefox gets this number back again in about October/December.
They'll use the old abandoned Shinra rocket that was shut down by Cid to save that girl from being burned to death.....o wait that was a game I think....
We're already a global community...it only makes sense to adopt a global time. Of course, asking the country that still uses Imperial measurement units to spearhead this change might be asking a bit much...
We already do that its called Zulu time or Coordinated Universal Time more information can be found here.
They all stink on ice, and most of them lose money.
Do they really loose money on them are you sure? or is this more of hollywood "accounting"? With merchaising and other factors there has to be a reason why they keep insisting on trying this tactic.
This is what we get for handing our children's education over to the government.
Not to sound like a troll, have you considred sending your kid(s) to private school? After seeing public schools though my own experiance, I wish I got sent to a private school one with teachers who actually give a damn. (Yes there are some dedicated hard working teachers out there but majority of them are not)
Sweet zombie Jesus, how can you tell if a dog has brain-damage anyhow? They already eat their own shit if you don't stop them.
I'm guessing you don't have a dog do you, you can easily tell if your dog is sick, not feeling well or if something is not right with him, and so do babys.. and we can tell if there brain dead or not.
For approximately the cost of a good character, you can rent a character? So essentially, you're guaranteed to be losing money. I guess if you've got the $450 start up cash, plus $130... But wait... What about the game software? Surely there's another $50+ dollars there (for the game, plus whatever expansions have to be enabled to play it). You're looking at around $500 to try a game. Man, I wish I had that much spare cash...
Some things you are wrong about.
The game and expansions are tied to the account by cd-key, and with everquest I no longer have any of my CDs, but they offer there patcher which scans for EQ files and then proceeds to download EVERYTHING that is missing or corrupt that's about 2 GBs of data, and this is actually not slow at all its takes me on cable about 2-3 hours to download everything required to play EQ on all the new expansions.
I'm sure we have all seen the new versions of pop-ups that get though firefox, but luckily we can use plug-ins to block them (Adblock), as long as firefox continues to grow they will only get more and more plug-ins to prevent those annoying pop-ups while IE at the same time, lacks these features, it took Micro$oft how long to develop a anti-pop up utility for there browser, it will probably take them as long to make another one for the new versions of pop-ups. That is why firefox will continue to gain market share, because its flexible and can adapt to something much easier.
Keep a minimum amount of money in your paypal account.
no worst part is then they issue out a cheack from your bank and the other person cashs it and it comes from you so you get a bounced cheack fee, paypal then blames you, I really dislike the company, I for one welcome our new google overlords for sending money across the internet.
No no Marketing is not lying,, Marketing is creativly bending the truth.
Marketing is spin doctoring and its pretty much a horrible thing in my eyes.
For example marketing spin...
"man saves 2 from burning house , fighting his way through the flames" in marketing speak can be "man abducts 2 , after breaking in to house and smashing many posesions "
Maybee because I'm a nerd and why I think it will happen like this, Timmy trys to burn CDs has no problem but when he trys to burn a fourth he "googles it" and just find out a easy way to break it from a website, and the sharing continues......
Obviously, you're never had to use Win 2K. I had the privilege...err I mean the dreadful-nightmare-crashes-every-30-min experience of use Win 2K. The upgrade is worth it from a users point of view.
You can tell that to the 250 users I supoort that use Windows 2K.... Its rare that a machine crashs for me, In fact people usally have never seen it before and call me if a BSOD occur because they have no idea what to do when one occurs, while someone who computer crashs more often would know that all you can really do is turn off the computer and boot it back up and make sure everything is working normal.
Slashdot Mirror
I think new PCs is a major reason.
:) so I'm willing to bet that Firefox gets this number back again in about October/December.

Indeed. Yet people still down^H^H^H^Hfreeload. Care to speculate why?
Just a guess but Free > paying for something with very low or no risk?

they shot him for jumping a ticket barrier and evading police. you can't seriously be suggesting he deserved to die for what he did.
Yes
When you want to act in a military fashion, you have to remember the shoot first ask questions later saying.

Remind me again which one is the evil one?

but, the real question is can I configure Opera to show up as Firefox?
