I realy don't think Microsoft will be capable of taking market share from Adobe, microsoft may have the resources to make a good competitor to Photoshop, but i realy don't think they'll be able to make something better.
It'll probably take some time, but i hope we'll see this in about 1-3 years. Im sure this will come into the market, the question is when. It would be to stop progress if they hold something like this back...
Could'nt agree more, but i hope they have'nt used all the names.
I found a list of roman gods here. Just need to find a list over wich names has allready been used.
The reason they didn't reserve the names is probably that they did'nt expect to find more planets in our solar system.
Juno would probably be a fitting name, i know a lot of people dont want to name the planet after a roman god, but since all the other planets have roman name, it would be a bit misfitting to name it something else. We allready have Jupiter wich is the King of the gods, so Juno is my proposal since Juno is the Queen of the gods. Or we could name it Bacchus - the god of Wine. hehe
After the famous announcement from Apple it really looks like IBM has been working hard to get new contracts and to release new CPU's. I wonder if, if Apple would have stayed with IBM for a bit longer if that would have changed their decision.
I originally posted this on http://bitsofnews.com/ but decided to post it on Slashdot also.
It's a bit sad though that Debian is struggling with it's security updates, Debian used to be a nice distro but i've changed to Suse myself due to the lack og updates.
YellowTab, BeOS equal to Red Hat.

As you all know, Haiku is far from finished, well maybe not that far, but i think that when Haiku R1 is ready, Zeta/YellowTab will have som major problems. A software house like Yellowtab does not have the money and manpower to keep up with the modern OS demands for the long run, but the open source haiku community have and will probably even get more devs in the future, so my guess is that YellowTab some time in the future will end up as a disto maker. Like Red Hat, the Haiku devs will supply the kernel and drivers and YellowTab will probably focus on it's software and making a Haiku Distro. But that's fine with me.
Well since the U.S cant sell any of their good to cuba, then the cubans must get their PC from some other country. Hmm didn't lenovo take over IBM's pc production, and are'nt lenovo a chinese company? and are'nt the chinese commies? hmmm...
Well a lot of people here says there's no need for Netscape, but i think the more browsers the better. The competition will probably make the other browsers get better. At least it does not hurt Netscape users to get an updated version.
The tabbed browsing is pretty addictive, when i use IE i always try to press conrol+t to get a new tab, but it never works. Wonder why..hehe
Firefox is maybe not bullet proof but it sure keeps your PC clean from spyware.
Yeah maybe someone should try to run it on MS or SCO software. And if you really want to see if it works then CherryOS is then thing to run it on.
But i assume you need to run it one the applications source code, if so it's hard to frame someone for using Open Source code. You'll probably have to file a law suit first, and use this tool to build some evidence.
I wonder if Microsoft will ever support this Open Format? But it would had been great if OpenOffice, MS Office and all other office suites would support it.
You've got to be some heavy duty overclocker to have the need for liquid metal cooling, and maybe you even need your own nuclear reactor to supply you PC with enough power.
Personally i wish there was no need for cooling at all, at least no need for fans or water cooling. Thats why i love Mac's theire silent...
Wouldn't it be better to use RAM instead of Flash memory on the HDD's, of course RAM can't store something permanent but it's faster. Well most/all HDD's already have some MB's of Cache on them, but if they had more you could possibly use a RAM drive for swap space and leaving your main RAM untouched, RAM is as far as i know faster than HDD's so it would be a speed gain it the OS supported this and loaded itself onto this RAM drive. This may be a bad idea so correct me if I'm all wrong here.
Another serious problem for some sites are spam-bots, i've seen a lot of sites with forums and news comments that has been attacked by spam-bots. Hopefully the new law(US) agains spamming will help a bit.

This article talks about a project called BAMBIOS, BAMBIOS emulates a bios on the intel-based Mac's. This enables non-EFI OS's to run.
A plane crash is bad enough, and this thing has an onboard Nuclear Reactor. I don't wanna be any place even near a crash site.

I hope for their sake that they have prepared for huge serverloads. Just to bad "normal people" can't register .eu domains before february.

Hehe, your probably right... I wonder if they have a taxfree shop at the ISS (International Space Station)?

This looks like a pretty good hit to me, poor little bird. I wonder how many birds they'll kill during the landing.
SCORE!

This is one of the reasons that i use firefox, they fix the problems right a way. Not many browsers fixes bugs and other security issues this fast.
I've seen a lot of projects moving to subversion lately, what are the major advantages Subversion has over CVS.

Surely hope they do..

There's a lot of people that care about what happens to Sun, theres no need to flame just because you dont care about Sun.
I sure hope other browsers also will pass the test soon, but it should'nt be a problem now that all the details on how to do it is all spread out.
