Heck, I know folks that scoff at those new fangled cell phones. They still have a box on the wall that they have to turn a crank and talk to an operator, by cracky.
I agree. Some of the TSA really are exactly as you say. I had one stupid fucker angrily point his finger at me and yell "YOU come when I SAY you come". This after I thought he had motioned me to come throught the metal detector. I guess he was gesturing to some other loser behind me. Then he had to stand there and glare at me for a moment. I thought that if I had said anything, it would have been cavity search time.
If the TSA wanted to change, they should look at their screening process to keep from hiring monkeys like this guy.
you will know that Continual Business Process Improvement is not just a buzz-phrase... Great! Microsoft must have the process down by now. I am just wondering when they will get around to the "improvement" part. I have been waiting a long time.
So Washington has missed out on more than half a billion in taxes; revenue it could use for badly needed infrastructure needs
Yeah, but were? From what I can see, this money would be spent in Iraq anyway. Every cent kept out of the hands of the politicians is a cent well spent.
I bought an HP laptop with Vista on it. It sucks. A lot of my applications don't run. The only thing I liked about that laptop is Ubuntu runs great under VMware. But, I gave the machine to my girlfriend who isn't much of a computer power user. She loves it. It does everything she could possibly want. I think that is the problem with Vista. It was designed for the lesser skilled user.
Novell doesn't stand to get much more than SCO's furniture The fumigation costs alone would make that a bad deal for Novell. First, you would have to scrape all that slime off.
Netflix says the whole thing is no big deal and they will change their envelopes if necessary
Ah ha! And that is when Blockbuster is going to reveal that they have a patent on the "Postal Sorting Machine Non-DVD-Jamming Envelope". I predict a $500 Billion patent infringement lawsuit to follow.
the version that passed on a voice vote reportedly differs substantially from the last publicly available version
It seems that this is the way congress works in general these days.

I just installed SP1. It is GREAT! File transfers are almost instantaneous. Better yet, it seems very sta
That is better than using the display toilets, at least.
If this demand is successful, the next thing they will want is to turn the clock back a thousand years! Oh, wait...
So, his brother is going to take over. Tell me, how is this any different at all?

Like a true Slashdotter, I didn't read TFA (or the summary for that matter). I see they are talking about state taxes. Nevermind!

Just imagine how fast that XPS M1530 would run with XP on it.

They could easily push out a renamed version of Vista and call it Windows7.
An example: Toilet paper is middleware.
...tastes EXACTLY like the one I had last week!

Unexplained rise of right shoulder strain injuries among UPS drivers. Researchers are baffled.

Levels make a good stopping place to take a whiz and reload the beer! Duh!
You have just created a retarded mouse!! I can do the same thing with a tiny hammer.
Yeah, but I hear if you drop a Lantos into Diet Coke, it foams furiously.
