IMHO w2k was the first and last product from microsoft that was good for anything.
Everything before it was just ridiculously bad from todays point of view. Win xp uses about twice the disk space and offers nothing w2k didn't have (or i would need. But maybe my computer usage patterns are non standard, as i get anything but playing games done on linux. And yes, I've been working on windows for a longer period.).
It would absolutely make sense to port their existing w2k derivate to the new xbox hardware. They just need a kernel and some apis (does the xbox include the win32 api?). Nothing they have added to windows since w2k is of any use on a console (especially not all that strange stuff they've announced for the mythical longhorn).
How much is objective-c used in new osx applications? Do they really use obj-c or is it mainly used to access apples gui classes from a c/c++ backend like in firefox. (of course firefox is a port, but i cannot imagine that there are so many people familiar with obj-c any more.)
I liked obj-c because you always knew where you left ansi-c, because everything 'objective' was bolted on by funny characters that could not be confused with normal c.
No of course not, as this would be criticism. And we all know that the greatest innovation in america in the last few years was the abandonment of criticism.
Maybe telling more people that "ID" is just a (bad) publicity gag by a republican founded think tank, trying to make the complete mess that "creationism" is sound somehow scientific for the public, would help.
Try to read some of the crap articles they produce (all on their page). Some of it really hurts. IMHO with the publicity it gets, ID is more dangerous than it seems at the first glance. (i hope that teaching stuff like this in science classes stays unthinkable in europe for some time. Philosophy is another story.)
yeah, if we continue like that we will have the same problems in 10 years, while the us have long reformed their patent system. (which will be copied by europe 10-20 years later...)
It's always the same. The USA have the shit first, the USA get rid of it first...

No, FOXNews has the most powerfull spintronics on the market.

Wow, just can't wait to hook up my cellphone to my Thestatika Machine as soon as i've installed this device!
It's not exactly slow, I just think gtk 2.4 has a rather, uhm, strange redraw concept, ain't it?
Will gtk 2.6 be usable for interactive work? 2.4 feels more like some kind of batch processing gui.
Maybe it's because canada doesn't have the european commission and other dubious characters decide about these matters>?
