I do dual boot, but I wouldn't have a need to dual boot if the games ran native in Linux. The only reason windows exists on my box is to run games, bringing the cost of games to $cost_of_games+$microsoft_tax. While I like free things as much as the next guy, I expect to pay for games (just not monthly, screw Blizzard.) Steam's DRM is unintrusive and very rarely causes me inconveniences.
IMO, with the existence of javascript libraries like jQuery or prototype, javascript isn't the issue. IE6 has so many bugs to keep up with (double margin, float bugs) that it forces you to create 1 1/2 websites (code that only runs on IE6 is the 1/2.) You tell it I want a a 6px border and place it 10px from the top and you can end up with a 12px border and 12px from the top. So you end up writing code to say, if its IE6, give it a 3px border and 8px from the top (knowing that it will double your 3px and add a few pixels to the latter.) So to answer your question, if we didn't write code specifically for IE6 (even without javascript) some sites would look so bad that they would be unusable in IE6. Stupid blue E.
VMWare makes a product called "VMWare View". It's basically a thin client that connects you to a VM running on a server. Most Windows thin client environments boot a RDP thin client that connects to a Windows TS, but this approach gives every workstation their own Windows environment to screw up. While not exactly what you're looking for, it will provide a driver agnostic approach to running a workstation. (although I would go with the nlite idea proposed above)
Someone needs to make an opensource onscreen keyboard that generates the keys in random sequence. That's a lot of hunt and peck, but how long is the average person's password anyway...8 characters?
This way, no keyloggers or clipboard copiers will work. So until they get screencapture loggers that work well...I think it may work.
So, someone get on it.

Read it again, it says all of the primates given the drug survived. 5 of the 8 of the control set (no drugs) survived.

2) not usable without assistance by blind and those who can't use a marking pen
We don't have enough blind to help everyone.
Think of the children, stop the tourists with their fancy nikons.

How did Helen Keller's parents punish her?
They stuck doorknobs on the walls.
We're giving them licenses to drive now? Ah, that's why there's braille on drive-through ATMs.
When I'm not at school, I'm acting as a lowly tech. This is the library I have found most useful over a few years.

Wow we learned how to have a good time fast. I thought the earth was only created 6000 years ago. Do you think Noah liked it shaken or stirred?
