<0> Lots of Apple users switched to Linux
<1> why would Apple users discard OS X and install Linux?
<2> Cpt_Kirk; really? I don't know any
<1> they have an OS they got with their Apple computer, why would they throw it away?
<0> And I see that they have managed to boot Linux now on the new Apple dual-core
<2> they boot linux on ipods too, so ****ing what?
<2> worthless
<0> and apparently OSX is being hacked to work on any PC
<1> Cpt_Kirk: and apparently Apple lawyers have issued a stop order on that word
<1> work
<1> because it violates the license you agree to when you purchase an Apple computer/OS X
<0> yeah the last one could be serious
<2> indeed, DMCA applies nicely, since its copy prtected
<1> Linux has taken more desktops away from Windows than it has from Apple
<1> and it has hardly made a dent in Windows
<2> linux makes a decent internet server
<1> I suggest Apple has gained from the "anything but Windows" mentality Linux perpetuates
<1> "I want a computer that isn't running Windows, but I don't want to mess with Linux, I'll buy an Apple"
<0> I was reading some suspect that Apple might drop OSX
<2> right.
<2> AHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA
<1> Right
<3> HAAHAHHAAHHAHAHA
<3> you heard that from DVORAK
<1> Dvorak apparently wrote a column
<3> he's a ****ing putz
<1> ya
<1> What a ****nut
<0> lol
<1> "Apple will start using Windows"
<3> his reasoning
<2> dvorak is a clown
<3> because the ipod doesn't have firewire
<0> yeah
<0> actually that is a good point though
<4> Dvorak is still around?
<3> no it isn't a good point
<1> I have concerns for Dvorak's sanity
<1> having ipod's use USB2 instead of firewire increase the market share of IPODS
<1> it has nothing to do with changing Apple computers to running Windows
<1> Windows users don't want to buy a firewire card to use an iPod
<1> and Macs come with USB
<1> so USB makes the better choice for interface
<3> yerah
<3> that's less than no brainer
<1> because it works with ALL popular computers
<3> which also means the crap about the iPod being meant "to sell iMacs" is bull**** too
<3> because if that were the case
<3> they'd all have firewire and not USB
<3> or apple desktop bus :D
<3> bottom line is Dvorak is stupid
<3> him and his ***** techTV buddies
<5> hi all
<5> is there a way to use my newton serial keyboard
<2> techtv? you mean g4? (snicker)
<5> with my pc?
<4> Firing on all of them today?
<5> I use it for my palm
<5> up to now
<2> does it have a conventional USB keyboard interface ?
<5> no , only serial
<0> what button brings up the BIOS again on boot?
<2> PC's don't support a serial keyboard
<5> oh
<2> Cpt_Kirk; varies with the system, could be lots of things
<5> if I do serial to usb opr something?
<5> is there a cable for it?
<0> mine doesnt bother to say anymore on startup
<5> or serial to ps2 or something?
<2> cyclinder; a USB serial port adapter creates a COM port on the PC, that won't make it into a USB keyboard
<2> cyclinder; I doubt any such exists that would convert your newton keyboard codes into PC keycodes
<5> will it work? I need drivers?
<2> cyclinder; if this serial keyboard is standard RS232 async, you could hook it up to a PC serial port with a DB9 connector, and read from it with a program that opens the COM port
<2> but it won't act as a system keyboard
<2> SD70MAC; ah, HERE is a WSH fragment to create a shortcut... http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/resources/qanda/may05/hey0509.mspx
<6> hm
<6> does xdcmp or whatever forward esound
<7> xdcmp is not for sound
<7> ***uming you mean x windows
<7> X Display Manager Control Protocol
<7> is for the discovery of window managers and establishing remote x sessions
<6> yeah i know what it is.
<6> but it opens control channels
<6> hence
<6> control protocol.
<6> esound could potentially piggyback on it
<6> at least a control channel.
<7> esound runs separate of xdmcp, but once you log on, you could probably run something as part of your profile and/or xstartup to open the channel
<6> yeah i've been thinking the same thing
<6> i just wrote some scripts here to use xinetd to automagically create and open X sessions over vnc.
<6> all i have to do is open my vnc viewer, connect to my site and it uses a briefspawn of gdm.
<6> MrDanger: but a profile sounds like exactly what i need for esound. props!

<9> i sign up for a 1 year package with comcast
<9> promo dealie, 6mos at this price, 3 at a slightly higher price, then 3 slightly higher again
<9> then full price after the year.
<9> they raise the price, and i have to pay the new price.
<9> why does that not sound right to me?
<9> they're allowed to bind me with the promo, but i'm not allowed to bind them with the ****ing price?
<10> service agreements! what a service?
<10> when does service become no longer a service?
<1> comcast pwns you
