I also know a fair few magazines in Germany that have had it on a cover-CD. Not to mention a fair ammount of linux distros which have it / debian repositry versions which have been downloaded. It kind of balances out in the long run , though the number is totaly up for debate as to real world users .
simple , we dont use that method.we can easily add a small component to the voip phone that allows it to function as a mobile/cell/handy(whatever you call it) phone for emergency calls , thus it would just dial the standard number avoiding all these problems (introducing a few more , but less likely to cause problems)
ofcourse if you want to remove most of those privacy issues there is an option,.. Simply make the tracking beacon optional and not have it turned on bydefault. So say you are a last hiker you just click on the "Flare" button(or whatever you want to call it) and it sends turns on the tracking allowing emergency services to find and rescue you. same if your say someone with only enough energy to tdial and say help a quick action(yet to be defined) could send out the tracking info for you and a predefined emergy statment
As an aside... I don't know any emacs users who don't know how to use vi proficiently. Conversely, I don't know any vi users who do know how to use emacs proficiently. <br><br>I have my own theories on why, I'll let the reader draw their own.

The biggest mental blockade to get over i would say is the "Manual reading block" if someone is switching from one system to another , They natuaraly assume they are an expert and don't need these "Tutorials".Im not advocating RTFM help only promoting the tendancy to read a manual , i will gladly give any help i can to a new user.
the reason i advocate that a new users learns a command set like vi or emacs is to get them into the swing of having to read up on things and helps get them into the mindest , I have often found people who do it this way become at home with the system far faster . If you give them the easy option at first they will glide and as soon as something a little tricky comes up they will stone-wall and be at a complete loss. That said , this is just my personal experiance and im sure many other people have very difrent views on the subject .
I never had any problems with the action scenes in eppisoded 1 and 2.. it was poor script and second rate acting by some of the cast that iratated me so much.. That said , some of the action scenes were really rather cool.I enjoyed seeing Slave one getting to do some shooting although i could of done without the cheesy "This is why i hate flying" (cant remember it exactly) line by obi-wan.
the difficulty in learning VI or emacs is greatly exagerated , It is very easy and as an above poster says , most of the shortcut keys from emacs work for most applications. I love pico/nano dont get me wrong , but you hardly need to learn it and the keyboard shortcuts from VI or emacs really can boost your productivity on the shell when your use to them. VI and emacs both generaly come with a tutorial that will hand guide you through the basics and let you start to feel comfertable with the enviroment.
If you don't see the gain from using a complex editor and understand what they are able to do , then you probably don't need it and can stick to the wonderfull nano(I use pico/nano for most of my quick editing, but if im writting a script i break out emacs or vi..more emacs recently as i said).
the basic emacs commands are rather simple and take no time atall to master.
its not as if they would need to learn the whole emacs multiverse.Just give them a sheet with the commands on like ctrl+f = forward , and they will pick it up quickly enough as the basics are fairly logical .
Depending on how tech-literate/savy they are this is , i would make a nice little data sheet explaining how to set up their profiles and what the commands do etc,perhaps make a small perl script that asks a few questions and creates a profile based on the awnsers for those who arn't to up to the task. Well if they are neading to get used to shell , then i would say this may be a good approach as it will educate them as well.(incase things go wrong make a simple script to reset their profile so you can rest easy).
I think you have proven your point , although i have been moded down for saying "the acting in Ep 1 & 2 was on par with that of 'The young and the Restless' without the skillfull plot to keep them going"(The young and the restless is a truely awfull soap-opera type show from the USA that gets put on daytime tv in a few places)
I personly am not that botherd about windows , never use it unless i have to (even then i carry around a knoppix CD and boot to that if i can). on a side note.. you can get kde running under cygwin if your a windows user so i imagine it would be possible to compile khtml for konqueror, as a side note (no idea if any native khtml browsers are out for windows , but if anyone knows one im sure it would be intresting to see).
Well that being said , my point was when itwill be listed on the offical webcore page.
Source Code:
WebCore and JavaScriptCore have been updated for Safari 1.2. WebCore-125 - Apple WebCore Framework (Safari 1.2) JavaScriptCore-125 - Apple JavaScriptCore Framework (Safari 1.2)
Archived Releases
from the official page. And i am not implying any wrong doing i am infact quite impresed and just a bit impatiant as i would like to enjoy these enhancments asap.
The test was designed to check the browser implementations of the newer CSS standards. Basicaly the point being not in obscure code , but in rendering normal code properly,all-be-it and extremly complex example of which made to test the browsers and how well they implement the standard. Web designers/developers will use the code when it is avaliable in their arsenal. As of now , the newest version of webcore is the only rendering engine that can do it so congratulations to apple(and ofcourse the khtml team,khtml being the thing on which webcore is based)
when the webcore code is put up then hopefully its in a form which would make it easy to reintigrate back into khtml. It will be nice to have standards complient rendering on OS X and linux .
um hate responding to myself , but i just noticed why im getting so many correction. I accidently deleted a line so carry on trolls about me being a slightly absent minded/bad speller blah blah yawn. it should read
Virii the Laten plural of virus used in scientific english(computer science, bioligy etc). Its actualy present in my dictionary(Biggus-dicus University presses english-Latin Dictionary) and is acceptable in normal english(UK, i don't know about US english).

1: write bill and pass it to freind in congress 2: name bill Family values & (for this example) Biological warfare program 3: Pay other freinds in congress to acuse people who do not support the bill of "Being Unamerican" and "not caring about the children" 4: pay off ramainder / lobby 5: celebrate your multi billion dollar contract
This bill may have some usefull atributes that could help you lot over in the states be allowed to crack the CSS restrictions which is no doubt good (if it ends up being ruled as such). Though i do worry about how they can tack the magic "family values" on to everything and magicaly pass it with little trouble...

You think thats bad , last time i got food poisoning i expelled a unified field theory
Well it looks like my psychic powers are up to those of juri geller then ;) and im succesfully predicting things that have already happend

They break up the transmitter areas into zones , sub zones etc. iirc.
so they can atleast tell in which area of a city you are in .
oh yes they can , they can tell from what mast your sending , in some areas with alot of masts they can pinpoint your location to a few meters iirc
yes i do admit the ctrl+f was a poor decision for an example ,hee

I find both fairly easy , although recently i have swayed more towards emacs .
does that make me a BiTexual

haahha you dont have a sense of humor do you..
