In addition to painting these on...I would bet you'd also need to wire it into your house. Upconvert the voltage. Change to AC. Find some way to store it or pipe it back into the grid. All non-trivial stuff.
For non-Albertans... a Chinook wind is some hot air the blows down the mountains and melts the winter snow for a week or so. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinook_wind So it an analogy for a bright new idea -- like a lite up light bulb. Therefore there are a zillion things called "Chinook" in Alberta.
I listened to a talk RMS gave about the GPLv3. It was long and painful. Basically he added clause after clause to take care of cases that he had not thought of before (eg Tivo). But to me it makes it far less elegant and basically impossible to understand by the masses. I think it would be better to keep GPLv2 which can be understood. Sure some Tivo-ish companies may abuse the spirit of it be its better to keep it simple. In RMS's talk he said they changed some wording to make it more international and defined all the terms better. I am OK with that. So lets move to a GPLv2.1 instead of 3.
How about that "restore previous versions" feature of Vista. You can bet that isn't going to cause some embarrassing moments. I assume something like wipe would do a unrecoverable delete. Does anybody know. If a program does fopen("myfile.txt", "w+") is a backup made?
This is true it will be a certain type of person that buys it. They have to into tech but also blinded by the new any shiny. Everyone tech savvy knows there are bugs in version 1.0.
Lets say you have a virtual host on your Apache box and you want to clone it with minor mods. Easy... cut'n'paste in the config file. But on IIS... I wouldn't know where to begin.
I'd prefer if the Jabber clients could get file transfer working first. (For users on all side of filewalls.) Maybe Google can kickstart this by using one way of doing it.
"Choose an OPERATING SYSTEM: 1. Vista 32 or 64 Home 2. Vista Ultimate 3. Windows XP 4. Windows 2000 5. Windows NT 6. Fedora 7. Ubuntu 8. FreeDOS 9. FreeBSD 10. BeOS"...
Microsoft is says there stuff is open and free and that that's a good thing. So now we just have to inform the legislators that Microsoft's format isn't but open and free is still good. They have got us half way there.
This was the topic at the recent Toronto Linux User Group meeting. http://tlug.ss.org/wiki/Meetings:2007-04 The talk was by a Ledger SMB core developer. I bought what he said... Ledger SMB is now on Source Forge, reacts to security issues, accepts patches, is converting to a saner architecture, uses CURRENCY instead of FLOAT for money. Seems like its a winner.
Her server is withstanding the Slashdotting pretty well. This proves "she" must really be IBM. (Joke.)
Seriously, I hope someday, somebody can write a short (one page) clear and simple document explaining who owns the various *nix names and code. I'd like this short document to be sued and win so make it "proven".
Right now AJAX is pretty simple. Just like XML-RPC was. Then Microsoft made it all complicated and called it SOAP. Now you need a library to use SOAP because its so complicated. I hope this doesn't happen to AJAX!!

Partly/Mostly our president's fault. By bringing "democracy" to Iraq. Who would want that kind of "democracy" on their desktop!
What's with IBM?
I wonder what they are thinking.

postfix (the mail program) looks pretty nice to me.

I agree, that seems like waaaay to much for a spam filter.

How is TV an upgrade over anything?
American Icon, Survivor, etc!
Yippee for burning more fuel!
I guess somebody didn't get the memo about reducing our nation's dependence for foreign oil.
Nice comment!
No need to write a bunch of books about him... its right there.
Like procmail or grep for the body.
Just don't mess up that regular expression or you might filter out something good.
That's the feature I want!!!

If businesses let employees pick their phones (and this is a choice) then they'll go for this nice phone. Who wouldn't.
The cycle is 64M years so have to wait less than that. Maybe as little as 32M years.

Would be great to see this happen
The old file transfer:

Why stop there:
...
"Choose an OPERATING SYSTEM:
1. Vista 32 or 64 Home
2. Vista Ultimate
3. Windows XP
4. Windows 2000
5. Windows NT
6. Fedora
7. Ubuntu
8. FreeDOS
9. FreeBSD
10. BeOS"
That would be verrrrry niiice.

Sometimes businesses do stuff that doesn't work out -- they go bankrupt everyday.
