WTF !

The next version of Windows is just a TV Mac: http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/sci...00/2131167.stm

And the OpenGL M$ argument is getting quite odd: are m$ critising NVIDIA for not supporting them anymore and claiming M$ OpenGL is where it's at.

The developer failed to realize the code was licensed under the GPL and would therefore require NVIDIA to release the source code for its entire driver.-

Round up the usual suspects and send them to Mike Magee.

Microsoft isn't stupid enough to focus all of its resources exclusively on a "mom and pop" OS. They're still going to continue making the standard operating systems.

Blustering in from sea With a rollicking song he sweeps along swaggering boisterously. His face is weather beaten. He wears a hooded sash. With his silver hat about his head And a bristly black moustache. He growls as he storms the country. A villain big and bold. And the trees all shake and quiver and quake. As he robs them of their gold. The Autumn wind is a Raider. Pillaging just for fun. He'll knock you 'round and upside down. And laugh when he's conquered and won. My Rig
