You know, if they keep hitting US companies, and US companies think twice about doing business in the EU's sphere of influence, then the EU's economy strengthens, and their currency goes up while ours goes down.

i don't know.. if AMD has gained no ground through legal action in the US, it's pretty suspicious that the EU is considering making another case - especially after the microsoft case, and considering that both companies here are US companies! Who is on these commissions, anyway? businessmen, politicians, or lobbyiests ? The EU, as a block of many countries, gives a lot of aid to developing nations, and takes a big humanitarian

i'm impressed.. it has support for non sony formats, and isn't memory stick only!!! i'm interested in an e-book.. much easier to carry around and you can put lots on it. But still so expensive? don't get me wrong, i love books.. but, i love them for their craft. They're out dated.

symantec releasing security propoghanda? harborering hackers to attack Microsoft and incite virus fear? Supressing built-in core level protection to push their own radical agenda? Secret funding of the EU to battle microsoft? It's AV Jihad! Conspiracy paranoias galore! ms should bomb the sobs! teach them that you can't mess with a world power....

I have less problems using explorer, than with other browsers. FF makes very specific sites look better, but has less functionality through developer's web applications. Opera is the same. Both get hurt when i use certain forms, and things like image databases or shared systems. Opera on a mac mostly decides it won't do anything at all on certain days ( it calls those days 'weekdays' ) yet is suprisingly still vastly superior to safari. IE7 for me. Lov

clean install on my e1405 as well. With the sidebar disabled, boot is the same speed as with xp.. i do sleep modes instead of powering off, tho, so i typically open up and am back to work in just a few seconds. As promised. Did a great job detecting my hardware. I even installed the synaptics touchpad driver for XP that works great on vista, and i got my 'enhanced touchpad options' back. Install took around 20 mins. On

i burned my first disc on a dvd rw ( all i had at the time ) .. didnt realize there were speed warnings, burned at 4x.. i ran into a file copy problem. reburned on another machine later also at 4x and that one installed ok. I used a free program from download.com (magic cd burner or something like that) to burn the iso. Vista. so far?

competition. mmm. that word rings weet in my ears, looking at all these microsoft monopoly law suits. With an ipod you use itunes and if you buy apple music you're limited in what devices you can put your music on. I love the thought that i can try so many different players without doing ANYthing to my ibrary.

SO. That's that. Several of my professors lived and worked in lower manhatten. Some of them lost their offices and studios, some lost their friends. They cancelled classes the next several days. The afternoon of the attakcs i went to give blood with my roomates. We walked back and forthe across town, and the hospitals were over crowded with people coming in. I choked up, i thought it was so wonderful that everyone was trying to help. Later

This is long, feel free to skip it. The Popular Mechanics article is a great report. I hope some of these insensitive - ahem - 'ill-informed' people would take a look at it before spouting their political, biggot, conspiracy theories. I have something to add to that about the two building's demise, which i hope should give people comfort as it did me, to learn the how's and why's. It seems appropriate, to help dispell rumors. In

They should ship Windows 3.1 in a Vista box and ask, "Does this comply with your anti-trust rulings?" indeed. Of course the EC doesnt want to review it first. They want to wait until it hits stores, so they can sue, and fund the next air bus.

Although WindowsMediaPlayer 11 Beta 2 is faster and it has cleaner design, aswell as new features, I would have to say that Beta 1 is better. Amazing to think that skinnability takes precedence over functionality and features. At long last, media players on networked computers can share the

Has anyone using RC1 encountered this error in a normal shell window? This page has an unspecified potential security risk. Would you like to continue? I get this error if i interact in any way - say, right clicking - a .zip or .stu file. Wondering if its a Vista level security warning implemented in the new IE. Maybe its just me but, an 'unspecified potential security risk'.. isn't that kinda..impotent?
