That is a great example of extreme relativis, both sides are hardly equals. But anyway, we should support Israel because they're the modern, liberal democracy, because they're an ally of the US, and because we fight a common enemy such as Hamas. Their country also produces great minds and makes large contributions to society in science and technology.
Uhh, Windows 7 is just a codename, the version number always refers to the version of the NT kernel. Vista was 6.0, 2003 was 5.2, XP was 5.1, 2000 was 5.0. Apparently Windows "Seven" will be NT 6.2 signifying that it contains minor kernel changes.
This source release doesn't contain the source code for the CLR, just the code to the class libraries. I would imagine most of the runtime is written in C++. The class libraries are mostly written in C#.
Microsoft has stated that the whole source will be available for download at once in the future.
Anyway, you could argue that this approach has some advantages since you don't HAVE to download the entire source, or worry about what version of the binaries you have.
I'm pretty sure the source for WinCE has always been included with the platform builder. It's kind of necessary for getting it to run on obscure embedded hardware.
Slavery and civil rights have nothing in common with software licensing movements. If you think they're remotely similar, your values are seriously at fault.
RMS is a complete lunatic and I can't imagine why anyone would follow him. This is a guy who shove his hand down his pants, grab his balls, then shake your hand (I'm not joking here). Think you're being a nice guy opening a door for him? Nope he didn't ask you for your help! He's an asshole to everyone around him, I know this from first hand experience.
IP laws probably aren't a good thing yes, it's a fine argument, but thats not enough for RMS. He wants unethical properitary software developers wiped from the earth, his words not mine. This is not the guy should be equating with anti-copyright movements or any movement that has any bit of rationality behind it.
The IE team was doing work on WPF (Avalon) prior to work on IE7, which was much more ambitious. WPF will have a large effect on the Web in the future, like it or not.
Yeah I'm reading over the specification right now and the color features are pretty extensive. There's support for storing color information in many different color spaces including CMYK.
There's nothing in there for interactivity though, it's strictly a fixed document format.
XPS support is being built into new models from all major printer manufacturers. It is lot more modern than PDF/PS and does a better job supporting fancier documents with features like transparencies and gradients. And now apparently its going to be open and standardized as well. It looks like MS nailed this one.
The blog post the article is referring to says it will be pushed out via Automatic Updates a FEW WEEKS after it's available for download. And it's not available for download yet. Somehow I doubt they ment tomorrow.
What the EU wants is irrelavent. Microsoft added security features to the OS in response to customer feedback. I think users should have a greater say in what goes into the OS not governments.
I beat this game the same day I bought it within a few hours. Lots of fun, way too easy. And most of the mini-games are from Mario 64 DS which I already own.
Well, its kind of necessary given the fact that CE has to run on some pretty limited and varied hardware. It's also very different from Linux in that it's a real-time OS and can run without interrupts enabled.

I'm also very interested to hear what these platforms are.
It requires DirectX for rendering graphics.
Given Apple's history of poor Windows software and the convoluted implementation of iTunes on Windows, I'd say its the other way around.

You missed the Device Emulator: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?Fa milyID=faa8c81d-7316-4461-a0ed-6c95b261ddcd&Displa yLang=en
It has a nice ARM emulator with JIT recompilation if you're interested in that sort of thing.

All zealots should not be treated equally.

I haven't been able to get this vulnerability to work anywhere, on XP or Vista.
The exploit fails running on IE7 in Vista with protected mode.
I was referring to what this video says about XPS: http://channel9.msdn.com/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=9805 7
MS shows off their prototype XPS printers and mentions that major printer manufacturers are signed on.
Spread some grease over the paper? It's alpha-blended between the graphical elements in the document, silly.

I don't mean 1-bit transparencies, I mean partial transparencies using an alpha channel, which Postscript level 3 does not support.
Not to mention installing a stupid pre-loader in your system startup and freezing the entire viewer when downloading data.

No, EU competition law IS broken. Microsoft's competitors exploit the legal system for their own gains.

If you want better information you can open up the crash dump in WinDbg. An "analyze -v" command will give you useful information most of the time.
