The conclusion you can draw from this is that IE is far behind. IE 6 should have been among the tested browsers as it's among the most used in corporate installations. Mozilla Firefox is a good browser with the most features and among the fastest. A good and safe choice! When it has become the most used browser I may choose another browser though. Per
I have the E61 and it's a good phone. It has Wifi and synchronizes with Exchange that I have in my workplace. So this is a phone, a calendar and an adressbook and has also some other useful functions. And it has a keyboard even if it's spartan it's much better than regular phones. If the E71 has the same functions and is thinner then it's a very good 'phone'. A camera could be useful sometimes and the E71 has it but not the E61. To be able to separate "business" and "home" functions seems nice also. I miss it doesn't use Linux instead of Symbian but bless it doesn't use Windoze.
'in particular zones to limit the speed and/or acceleration of vehicles, to require the use of lights, to verify an indication of insurance coverage and/or current registration, or the like.' This is definitely Prior Art! It was demonstrated many years ago here in Sweden with cars equipped with a speed limit controller that was activated with a radio signal. Maybe it's already patented?
Open Office, K-Office or Abi-Word replaces the "Office". You want a free replacement for the 10k Photoshop? The zero k Gimp replaces this but as of now "only" 8bit. You have many very competent raw converters in Linux for free as in beer, i.e. Raw Therapee and Lightzone. What else do you need?
Yes - this is a very nice thing so you don't have to be suspected being a criminal! Wine doesn't always work and there are some instances when you need to run some Windows only programs. The best way (most convenient) is to run Windows in an emulator but it's ridiculous to have to pay for a full Windows license for this. I have bought a license for the Windows XP64 mainly to be able to profile my monitors for serious picture work. The calibrator is not supported in Linux. The system I'm working in is Linux (Ubuntu). A couple of programs that I need are Windows only and I think it could be nice to run them in an emulated environment. I have registered my copy of XP64 but I think it will be a nightmare to register the second copy of exactly the same "legal" copy when I run it in an emulated environment on exactly the same hardware (computer)!
Windows Vista is illegal. Microsoft is trying with the DRM that's against your right of free speech to further strengthen it's monolpolistic position on the market. They control the operating system of the PC, now they want to control ALL media including the hardware that it's going to be used on. Microsoft has declared war against your human right of free speech.
I will probably get a zero or minus for this. I don't understand how Slashdot can publish this in this way. Is the 'james.infidel' that published the story someone from Microsoft? What has "communist government" to do with this? It's nothing in the referred articles that says anything about 'communist government'! I think Slashdot has been taken over by an organized campaign - guess where from? We use to call it FUD! The articles referred to are interesting but NOT the Slashdot ingress!
"I know, I shouldn't complain, I should quit my job and devote the rest of my life to learning C, Python and Mono and making obscure coding references in a blog that I'll update four times a week." - no you shouldn't complain- what you are coming with is FUD! I don't believe that you have even tried the latest versions of Ubuntu!
I just want to inform you that NetworkManager is installed by default!
I've used Ubuntu since it came out and it's a very good desktop environment and it works much better than Windoze that I have on my work. I have never done anything of what you say is necessary - Ubuntu works very well out of the box and is automatically updated to my language - Swedish. I use Gnome that is a very beautiful desktop but I use to install KIIIB because it's a nice burner. There are some modifications that you have to do get it to suit your needs but that is MUCH less than all you have to do with Windoze to get it to work and all the costs that are involved with programs. You have still to be careful when choosing hardware (read WL-adapters) but for me everything has worked. I can't see no real reason why it shouldn't work even better on the enterprise desktop. I have a problem though that I can't sync my Nokia E61 - or can I?
If it's all about the desktop and it's look then both KDE and Gnome is way nicer than Windows XP64 that I've compared it with. Take Slashdot: the gradations in the menus with Firefox look much better and even the anti alaising is better something that really surprised me. I haven't had the possibility to compare it with Vista as it's not out in my language yet. Where is the bubble?
I don't see this as a serious problem! It's good that they discuss how to proceed.
What they have missed is to make the Composer a separate product but it now exists as NVU mostly supported by Linspire. NVU seems to become a very good product and needs more support.
I think there is too much uncritical positive comments about Apple. How much do they give back to the community? They use the freedom as in beer (OS, browser etc.) but how much do they give?
The "only" thing is that a suspension that can do this has been on the market for almost 50 years. It's the Citroen pneumatic suspension that came 1956. It was advertized the same way: "You don't fly - you just feel like you do". This system is still built into the Citroen cars. I think that it's also licenced to some very expensive cars.
Sorry but I know some very respectable people that of some reason has AOL. I think it's good if Aol uses this as I can't for some obscure reason send mail to AOL customers anywhere in the world. They are accusing me of sending Spam! I have taken up this with my ISP but they haven't been able to solve this as AOL doesn't answer either on mail (mail is blocked I suppose;-)) or phone.
The good news in the article is that the much "better" memory GDDR3 will be standardized from the beginning with may suppliers and hopefully a lower price. Forget GDDR2!
There is so many good things coming out of the US but also a lot of bad. Just now the US is trying to go to war against a poor country in the "third world" just to get contol of their oil. It doesn't matter how they try to disarm themselves.
Now your laws of "intellectual property" tries to destroy the efforts of a whole world to develop something that can make us to communicate freely with each other.
Now - communicating freely with you - how can you let this happen?
Sorry! For most of the world did this thing just don't happen. The Y2Kbug was mostly a hystery but some "smart" people (I call them ruthless) made A LOT of money out of this. Guess who has to pay? Don't be sorry!

Just leave "it". Go Linux and stop paying tax to M-soft.

Who wants Vista with DRM:ed content and drivers?
Is it you and me or is it one of the worlds worst monopolies who's only interest is your hard earned money?
If you are not a hard gamer are there any reason anymore at all to use this non free and proprietary Microsoft DRM-ed software?
Wake up and liberate yourself!

I think it will only become good out of this!
I agree!
This is nothing for Slashdot at all! Completely uninteresting (except saying no to). It's NOT multiplatform just unintersting proprietay stuff!
Better Slashdot - pleae!

Yes not on Opera either. Microweak Exasparation is completely unusable!

US is going against the UN.
This criminal act is riscing the peace in the whole world!
The nation that has the most mass destruction weapons is the US. Some of them are Pentagon eager to try in Iraq.
Please try to stop this madness!
