Anybody got enough experience with NetBeans to say whether it is better or worse that Eclipse?
It depends. I prefer NetBeans, because my appliactions usually have complex GUI. GUI editor of NB 3.6 was the best at the time I chose IDE for a project. Matisse, the GUI editor of the new version is the coolest I've seen among IDEs. I also like the web application support and the integration with Ant.
Although I liked some features of Eclipse I never got really used to its logic. There are some plugins which available only for Eclipse. Eclipse also seemed faster for me.
So, I think the choice can be made only on personal preferences.
How did this ever even become a controversy? Isn't the internet as we know it an outgrowth and result of DARPA work? And didn't the internet essentially grow from those efforts and work?
This feels like envy and jealousy, the United States created a neat and shiny toy unnoticed by the world until it "became" the internet, and now the rest of the would wants some stewardship, whether it is warranted or not (in my opinion, not).
You're right about the origin of the Internet. But that doen't mean it belongs to the USA! I think today the Internet is becoming the part of the basic infrastructure (like water or electricity) and it belongs to all of us.
If any invention would belong only to its "original" country, nobody could use steam engines outside England, get vitamin C outside Hungary, etc. After a while inventions become international.
I don't like that US controls all of root DNS servers. But I also wouldn't like it in the hand of the EU or any other country. A fully distributed system would be a good solution. Or DNS controlled by an independent, international organization. Country independent DNS controll is our only hope to preserve the Internet as a free media.
Diablo, Heroes of Might and Magic 3 (doesn't like 4), city-building games like Pharaoh, Empire
When I started to read you comment, I started to think that my boyfriend had changed his login name...:)
I also like these games. Other games: Warcraft 2, Zeus (city building), Delta Force 2, different types of Mahjong.

Actually, I know it so, that the largest freshwater fish is the European sturgeon (Huso Huso), http://animaldiversity.ummz.umich.edu/site/account s/information/Huso_huso.html
It can be well over 1000 kg.
