No... That means MS Windows is now a forbidden OS in Finland... the "shift-key bypass" is a feature in MS Windows...
Anyone using Windows should now format the drive containing the tool of evil... ...and everybody must contact the authorities so the distribution of Windows in Finland can be stopped ASAP...
...is RoboCopy It copies anything anywhere including security info (if needed)... locally or over the lan. It will not copy similar files unless it is forced to do it. It will wait for "mount", it will retry on failure. ...and it is able to make a mirror of a directory... RoboCopy is THE best CLI utility provided by MSFT, it is a part of the Resource Kit for Win NT4 and W2K...
Another cool utility from the W2K Resource Kit is NETSVC. It is a remote NET command.
No I'm not a MSFT fanboy... I just like those two utils...
...and you will be running one af MSFT's 2 gaming paltforms, one of them is called Xbox and you will be using the other one... ...the gaming industry will however sooner or later follow the geeks to Linux...
"I wonder when M$ or others will accuse SuSE or RH of trying to stiffle the competition by bundling apps with the OS." MS can't do that... all those bundled applications are free and that is the differnce.

Well...
A printer driver shouldn't be able to BSOD a system... should it ?
Most good software for Windows is too expensive...
No it is not. Windows only emulates a fast boot... you may get a "Windows has not completed the boot process" error if you login as soon as the login screen appears.
Say what ??
Aha... no you are righ... Windows has the most beautiful registry... a very organized and well documented place where nothing can go wrong...
...and who are you to compare ?? ...when have you latest installed a Linux ?? ...when have you latest made a full Windows installation (full = non-OEM Windows on a clean system) ??
I do both... on workstations, laptops and servers...
That is excactly why MA has changed the requirement to include OpenDocument support. The project can't be "killed" by the M$ std. strategy (the "give it to them for free if nessesary" strategy, if you didn't know), and TCO is irrelevant if the product can't pass the requirements.
My friend... you are one of those persons who will wake up one morning and realize that you can't use your PC (or MAC) if you don't pay a monthly fee. Your are of course right a tool (in this case a computer) must fit the need (not the flavour), but DRM may (or should I say will) eliminate any computer system without DRM support. DRM may (and will be) used for controlling how, where and when software and data should be used. If there is a way to control, use or misuse a system it will be exploited, either by criminals, greedy corporations or, in the worst case, the government. We have seen it before and we will see it again...
So... You are seriously telling us that a switch from MS to Apple is less painfull than a switch from MS to Linux ?? That is a joke isn't it ? I've just been there... a shift from Windows to OS X is as much pain in the ass as a shift from Windows to Linux for a normal user... I think your "problem" is not the OS, it is Office or propably something from Adobe... and you're just hiding behind the OS problems...
...has Microsoft bought Mozilla ? or just FireFox ? ...and will we see an OutBird just as we just saw a InterFox ?
All this and everything about M$ Windoze Vista superiority may be seen on the Microsoft show tonight... ...what ??? not tonight ?? tomorrow then ?? no ? SAY WHAT ?? In a YEAR !?...and maybe more ?? I can port all our software to Linux, Unix or OS X before Microsoft is ready with Vista...
If there is no GPS or GSM/GPRS involved in the IP-phone (wich may be a softphone) then there are NO BLOODY WAY to localize it ! The call may go thru a VPN from L.A. to D.C. ! I think it is possible to make a cheap and simple reciver for GSM Station ID broadcast messages. It could be implemented as a USB-key and the phone/softphone would only work if this key was connected.
You are wrong... it was a Panther... or maybe a Jaguar... and if it got spots, it could also have been a Leopard...
He maybe confuses them with the jaguar
"Does it prefer HD-DVD or Blu-ray?"
They prefere the Sting Ray...
...may well be the two most important inventions made by MS...
I'm still not quite sure what I need them for...

Well, I run a SuSE 9.3 on an IBM A31p (with a 7K2 disk) as my primary system.
I'm not sure if I'm qualified...
Yes, fellow slashdotters, our favorite geek hero has trascended beyond the realms of our known universe: He COULD get a girlfriend!
I'll suggest that you read his biography again... that was Tove (Linus' wife) who asked for a date first.
Geeky girls love it... (they will try to install FreeBSD om it)...
and real geeks prefere geeky girls..
...is RoboCopy

Request Denied !
It would be to hard to sell new and improved versions...
Well... this is the same procedure as last time...
...and who are you to compare ??
...when have you latest installed a Linux ??
...when have you latest made a full Windows installation (full = non-OEM Windows on a clean system) ??
I do both... on workstations, laptops and servers...
"Someone give me one good reason why I should EVER enable IDN?"
So you can visit the gaycave.se (aka böghåla.se) mentioned in a previous post... ?
That's too bad that your site needs IDN to work properly... ;-)
Why don't you get and use gaycave.se (or is it gayhole.se) instead ?
Yes, I lived in Sweden for several years...

...and precisly where is the Windows intrface more intuitive than Linux ? ...or MAC ?
It is not "intuitive", you are just to do things the Windows-way... Intuitive is when a person who never used a system can use it right away...
It does NOT work optimal... and the call is routed based on the station ID...
