  1. Different Take on PCWeek on the Influence of the PC and the Internet · · Score: 2
    It seems to me that the articles in question were not focused on windows/unix/mac etc..., but rather on the tremendous change that was affected by giving millions of people access to cheap computing hardware.

    From the writers perspective I would say that the OS in question was irrelevant because of the anonymizing influence of the internet. Can anyone tell what kind of computer, let alone OS, I'm posting this message with?

  2. Re:20th Century Mathematics on Shimura-Taniyama-Weil (STW) Solved · · Score: 1

    My understanding was that Wiles proved a limited subset of the Shimura-Taniyama conjecture- just enough to prove FLT.

  3. Re:Forking works only if GPL is *enforced* on GPL and Project Forking · · Score: 1

    I don't believe that the GPL has ever been tested in Court. Does anyone have any examples/information about this?

  4. Re:Oh yeah on Linux on Palm · · Score: 1

    WinCE is as much windows as Windows 98/NT. CE, 98 and NT have different codebases, with shared code in varying degrees. I'm curious, what do you mean when you refer to "windows"?
