I'm still confused why everyone insists on dumping the menus and buttons on the TOP of the browser window. Web site design, for various reasons, tends to follow a fairly vertical layout: You scroll up and down to get at more content, with little to no side-to-side scrolling. Our screens, on the other hand, tend toward horizontal layouts, with aspect ratios getting increasingly wide.
It makes no sense for us to put menu bars at the top when we could put them at the right hand side, and the content in a narrower, taller window. We'd see more relevant content on our web pages, it keeps the tabs closer to the scroll bar, and minimize/maximize/close buttons are close by as well. Vertical pixels are valuable. Horizontal ones are cheap. Make the buttons and tabs use cheap pixels, please.
Unless your coding a browser where you want a consistent UI on a mobile device as well where horizontal pixels are far more precious...
How far has this thing managed to go now? Couple miles?
Tires are stupid anyway. Hey, news flash, PhD eggheads... try these things called "tracks". I'm pretty sure they'll work on Mars...
There would probably be a weight issue with tracks...
....It's CDDL licensed, as Solaris was, and the model is "managed community", the way Solaris was
I can tell you that Oracle absolutely hates CDDL licensing. It was Mission #1 to abolish all CDDL licensing after absorbing Sun.
More importantly, Oracle is a serial killer. Anyone called Agent Jarreau?
If so, can I have her number? You know, in case I need to find the team?
It might help if you could spell her name correctly. Agent Jareau maybe???

Looks like Oracle might be part of the blame for the websites troubles...
I've had the misfortune of needing to use an Oracle system with a web interface to deal with a large client for construction management & billing. If that experience is any indication of how Oracle will fix the problem, the Feds would be better off keeping the very crappy existing system. (seriously)
You were lucky you only had to work with their product. I had the misfortune of being at Sun Microsystems when the mindless Oracle borg took over. I bailed out within two years.
Ditto.
