Wonder how Yahoo shareholders are going to feel when the reality of a $20 stock heading to $15 hits them. I love this "undervalued" talk - you are worth what everyone agrees you're worth, and that's < $20.

I think WB is going to use the same 3D compositing system that Aero uses, so I'd expect similar power usage. On a side note, my over 2 1/2 years old P4 3.2GHz, 1GB RAM, ATI Radeon X800 Pro runs Vista just fine. The X800 and the installation hard drive was added to the system after it was built, mind you.
I thought the EU was complaining about the server documentation at this point. I think the problem is they've been required to produce thousands of pages of technical documentation. It probably takes good peoplea and isn't easy or much fun - would those capable want to do this kind of job?
Windowblinds, Firefox, Rainmeter. Note on Firefox: icons for the various extensions is always a problem with skins - it would be nice if a skin provided a selection of skin-matching icons for various extensions, if that's possible.
I have a similar problem on my work machine, running XP Pro, although I'm not running Panda. I disabled most everything that I thought could be affecting things, including Sophos Anti-virus. There's junk, like the SafeDisc driver and various other protection schemes, that I don't want to mess with. But this machine is pretty clean, overall. When I enable WB by selecting a skin, the system metrics (eg. Taskbar size, fonts) change, but no s
A few people might run the hacked MacOS, but really, it isn't going to be an option for most of Apple's customers, is it? I would hope the reason for owning a Mac is that it works out of the box and stays working because of the tight control over hardware and because the user feels the OS is better than alternatives. If people only buy a Mac so that they can feel superior, then I guess there might be problems. But Mac users aren't that shallow, are

Require all Windows logo apps to support moving all settings to another installation.
Salvador, I agree that Servant Salamander is fantastic (I think I found it after a post you made in an SD newsgroup - thanks), but it shows only generic directory icons for me, not the icons set by IconPackager. Any thoughts on how to get the IP icons (I'm using 2.5 B5a, but 2.0 does the same)?
I installed this program at home - no problems. I haven't installed it at work, but I did just look at the wallpapers under display properties and I noticed more than I expected there - apparently everything I have in My Pictures and its subdirectories is in the list. Furthermore, this path: "REG:\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Wallpaper\MRU" in the registry has entries with binary data, with what looks like Unicode text embedded containing the nam
Hmm, I think most of the Q&A is wrong. Here is an example, this from the SSA's history at http://www.ssa.gov/history/briefhistory3.html: The 1983 Amendments In the early 1980s the Social Security program faced a serious short-term financing crisis. President Reagan appointed a blue-ribbon panel, known as the Greenspan Commission, to study the financing issues and make recommendations for legislative changes. The final bill, signed i
I'd like to see a sample mockup.
His point is that risk affects the decisions we make. When liability is limited, we choose riskier behavior than we would otherwise have. Corporations have limited liability, in that their owners and employees are usually not held fully liable for the actions of the corporation. For example, a manager decides to sell an unsafe product. Now consider what happens when this situation is discovered. With no limited liability, the manager goes
New forms of business always add jobs - the great example is the auto industry (admin, design, manufacturing, sales, service, accessories, roads, gasoline, lubricants, steel, plastics, traffic cops and on). But what happens when the jobs that the industry creates require intellectual capabilities that are beyond half the population?
COZ: A) Yep, and I find it unlikely that we'll sail through every roadblock unabated. Some things DO have limits (like the speed of light, 100M sprint time etc.). B) I'm not sure we can create a new form of life, as such. AI doesn't necessarily equal life. Do you think a machine would "enjoy" time at the beach? What if we could do it (make machines like us) - all we should do is not do it (ie. limit them to what makes them useful to us). C) That assumes that democr
