Who would be crazy enough to buy Vista in the first place?
I got a "free" copy with my latest hardware...
First thing I did was wipe the disk clean and replace it with Ubutunu + XP.
Last time I checked more than 80% of the electricity in France comes from carbon-free sources : mainly nuclear and some hydro. So it's definitely possible without a perpetual motion machine!
It would be great if these are available and affordable when I move to Paris next year.
After doing some some stuff in raw XMLHttp, I'm now using DWR http://getahead.ltd.uk/dwr/ [getahead.ltd.uk].
So far it's been great.
DWR is very easy to add to add to a project, well documented, and light-weight. It makes AJAX so easy because javascript stubs are generated automatically for the Java classes you decide to export.
For testing and exploring, DWR creates an interactive web page generated automatically by the DWR servlet. From those pages you can see exactly which classes and methods you have access to and the number of parameters required! From there you can even call your server side methods interactively.

Parent should be modded up.

1. People buy the 256 Kbit/s DRM free songs, 2. iPod memory fills up 3. iPod upgrades galore 4. Profit!!!
The world gets improved OSS. And MS may get less $$$.
Up until now to create a simple web CRUDS (Create, Read, Update, Delete, Search) application you had to know HTML, SQL and {PHP|PERL|JAVA), etc.!
And even if you know what you're doing it still takes time and money to get CRUDS done right.
Google Base is going to change that radically. It reduces the cost of CRUDS to ZERO.
Some of the consequences will be:
Increased competition with MSFT because they want these applications on the desktop using Office 12.
Google Base may be leading us to the universal ATOM store. More info. at http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2005/09/21/atom-store-web -database.html
Sorry for the crappy formatting, but I couldn't figure out how to associate text with the URLs.
