Which is why I no longer do that for a living (sysadmin now)... I was dreaming lines of code at night. It sucked.

Yeah, whatever. Yes, I know it's all very fashionable to pine on about -or versus -our spellings...beating a dead horse comes to mind. Face it, our way of spelling "color" is simply more efficient.

Besides, I've been spelling it that way too long to change:

"Webster's 1828 dictionary featured only -or and is generally given much of the credit for the adoption of this form in the United States."

The problem is, many people assigning deadlines don't have a clue. A persistent problem in almost any business is the over-optimistic deadlines. Or over-optimistic sales figures. Or over-optimistic [insert desired results here]. People always want/need something faster, and think that short deadlines are the way to achieve that. T'ain't often the case.

Or seized, even.

This. +1

I heard it as marketing sushi as "cold, dead fish."

Win95 didn't kill the Amiga, the new owners did, coupled with the first viable alternative that was available at the time...Linux.

Well, add another Linux user to the demand for a native port of Picasa. Picasa under WINE sucks, especially with its brain-dead directory system.

Guess I don't have to worry about Chrome...not only does it not install automagically after download as advertised, but attempting to run it manually results in:

Syntax error: newline unexpected

Oh, well...

Indeed, that is correct.

Anyone post an image to run on VMware Player?

I used my MP2000 daily until a month ago. It suddenly lost its mind and all the data on its internal memory (stuff on my two pcmcia cards was okay, including a backup). It restored okay, but now I'm not sure I trust it. Maybe it was a fluke. I dunno. Still, there's something to be said for all that screen real estate.

I has one. Gen-u-wine IBM issue.

Soooo...does this mean Kuickshow will work now? As in, show thumbnails?
