it was effing brilliant in the late 80's when i used it. First ever IDE i had used and MS had nothing like it. The ability to debug/change variable value while stepping through the program was bliss compared the previous stuff i'd used and the ability to leave a lot of cobol shit out and start the program with the working storage section... aaahhhh memories......
oh sh*t, one of the chimps has escaped the jungle study group and has started trolling as -jcr, perhaps he'll find some vowels for his nick the next time he hits the keybaord...
Whilst you can't buy a manually manufactured product because the presses are gone, all OEMs will still have their gold disks to prep a laptop from. The time its nearly the same as the car analogy is when the OS is so out of date that its uninstallable on the latest hardware, e.g. DOS 1.0 on a multicore system (i think, i've not tried it).

Where can I go to a car dealership and buy a brand new 2004 model car? Where can I go buy a new 8-track tape player?
This would be right up his street.... oh god, did i really write that?
Find some case studies on the web where someone has been caught (Ernie Ball Inc. http://news.cnet.com/2008-1082_3-5065859.html ) and the price he had to pay £90,000) and the solution he then applied (ripped out all MS software).
Show that to your boss and mention that the previous guy might want a pay day at some point by whistleblowing to the BSA.
Make sure you email it to the boss, document it as a "Cover your Ass" scenario.
If the boss doesn;t wake up, leave and whistleblow yourself and show your documented attempts to get compliant. Bear in mind you may sink the company if its really bad, so check your conscience first.
If you want to use it in the corporate environ, then cut/copy and paste becomes a must with email. It certainly got used heavily at the global bank i worked at when i was supporting blackberrys

"No, but there is a passage that explicitly states "go forth and multiply,"

nah, alcohol was invented so all the ugly people of this world get shagged as well
Darwin was also known for having expressed that his theory showed that (and how) blacks were genetically and naturally inferior to whites.
Can I have a citation for that because i think he pointed out the opposite.
But does that compensate for the extra weight caused by the dirt??? :o)
Why are these redhat bosses such twats regarding the desktop? If they want to diss the linux desktop they should just diss their feeble efforts.
Seems like all the ID-ists/Creationist are Anonymous Cowards - i wonder why that is? Just trolling or too embarrased to stand up and be counted?
you upgrade from Steam to Electricity??
they sh*t everywhere and you'd have to feed it bananas for directions.

No-one is going to running in my ring 0 unless they pay a million or two
I cannot fathom the kind of person who would actually spend the time to read that. Truly, I'm astonished.
