 | That might depend on your point of view. I'd also like to know, though...what is it? It looks a little bit like balls of doughnut dough that've been fried and covered with syrup. Am I even close?  |

 | In reference to WaltP's little 'history of computing' entry: Some of the stuff I've seen about earlyish Microsoft development indicates an interesting name for one of their products...a name (and product; haven't checked it for myself yet) that, if true, marks the beginning of a great Microsoft tradition that continues …  |

 | Better at what? Better for whom? If you're purely concerned with effeciency, a dictatorship is better. No mess about 'elections' or 'voting on the issues' or anything like that, just 'Because I, Dictator N, said DO IT!'. If you're concerned about value of life, that depends on a couple of … |
 | Re: Piracy I have a question related to the issue, although it's not quite on-topic. I've seen stuff online for programs that look interesting, but aren't released in the United States.
