  1. Expensive? on Download Your Brain · · Score: 1

    Of course it's going to be expensive when it first comes out. Most new technology is.

  2. Re:Plastic on First KDE 4 App ('Kind of') Running · · Score: 1

    I meant how one set of buttons was much more pixelated then the others.

  3. Re:Plastic on First KDE 4 App ('Kind of') Running · · Score: 0

    Yeah, the theme is kind of weird (maybe it's related to KATE kind of working), especially the buttons in the upper left compared to the ones in the upper right of the screen.

  4. Hopefully no other "extras" on HP Will Offer Customized Linux in Notebooks · · Score: 1

    Hopefully the drivers will be the only thing that are made to work with Linux from HP. I hate how OEMs in general add 20 desktop icons for "great offers" to Windows.

    OpenOffice only offers spell checking, not grammar checking. However, there is talk of a Grammar API that could allow grammar checking for all languages.

    This page tells how archive.org obtains its funding.

  7. Re:Some people are just stubborn on Mozilla 1.8b1 Released, Firefox Growth Slowing · · Score: 1

    Firefox 2.0 will offer configurable keyboard shortcuts. Unfourtantly, Firefox 2.0 is a long way off.

  8. Re:It will pick up once the corps grab it on Mozilla 1.8b1 Released, Firefox Growth Slowing · · Score: 1

    Turning off ActiveX is not an option for some places. If they are tied to a webapp using ActiveX, they can't just disable it. So it's possible to lock IE down a decent amount. But doing this breaks the very stuff that ties people to IE.

  9. Re:Growth is phenomenally fast & not really sl on Mozilla 1.8b1 Released, Firefox Growth Slowing · · Score: 2, Insightful

    The article is also assuming that exponential growth, not linear growth.
