It’s about time he showed up for a post-season game!

Now we can only hope for chants of “The Giants win the pennant, the Giants win the pennant… ” [[:-)]]

Bonds was a playoff winner at last, homering and scoring the first two runs as the San Francisco Giants held off the Braves 3-1 in the decisive Game 5 of the NL Division Series Monday night.

**YEAH!**

Actually IBM notes site has insructions on how to run the Win32 client on Linux with WINE. I know it is not a native client but it is more cross platform then Outlook/Exchange or Groupwise niether of which work on linux client or server

I wish this wasn’t the case… I really do!

We wish we found IBM’s Lotus Notes a long time ago. This single application could have formed the basis for the entire site. The interface is so problematic, one might reasonably conclude that the designers had previously visited this site, and misread “Hall of Shame” as “Hall of Fame”. Lotus Notes… contains almost every example of inefficient design illustrated thoughout the entire Hall of Shame site.

And I have to use this at work!!!

Having had to use Notes for e-mail for a few weeks before I quit my last company, I can fully appreciate your criticisms. In the developers’ defense, since Notes is supposed to run on various OS platforms, it is important that it **suck** equally on all of them.

I guess I can understand that… except that on the 5.0 product, it doesn’t work cross-platform anymore! Now what’s their excuse?

Of course, their new site only looks right when viewed by their product (IE) on their OS (Windows).

Microsoft is a W3C member that sits on the XHTML and CSS working groups, and makes web browsers that support those technologies. Microsoft’s browser developers include longtime W3C contributors like Chris Wilson and Tantek Çelik who help create web standards and are passionate about supporting them. It’s too bad their hard work and that of other W3C members was ignored by the site’s designers.

Those who use font tags and other such junk often claim they’re doing so to make the site look good in old browsers. That wouldn’t be a sensible goal for the makers of IE6, but let’s run it up the flagpole. The ill-coded redesign looks reasonably good in Netscape 4/Win but the site is illegible in Netscape 4/Mac.

Why am I not surprised? It can’t live with standards anywhere else, so why should I expect that they could on their website.

More evidence that the Recording industry is just plain criminal!

An insider present at the hearing commented, “It was kinda pathetic watching all the major suits try and defend the indefensible… it was clear that the Senators want no part of any legislation, but that they feel it’s inevitable if the majors refuse to address any of the artists’ concerns.”

After reading this report, I’m actually more appalled than every at the way musicians are treated. Can you imagine… **The Backstreet Boys*’ have ‘*NEVER** received a royalty check from their record company????? How is this possible in a civil society?

I have to hand it to M$. They are keeping up with their end of the bargain and making their apps available and robust on the Mac platform.

Beginning Tuesday, buyers of new Macs can pick up the full version of Office v. X for $199, or about $200 less than the full purchase price. The promotion ends Jan. 7, 2003.

Hopefully this will boost sales such that they keep improving the product on OSX.

I’ve been waiting almost a year for this!

This should be **very** cool!

This is the latest in a series of strong releases that are just getting stronger.

Red Hat has begun an effort to use its position as the dominant seller of the Linux operating system to try to smooth over a long-running divide about the look and feel of the OS.

###Users are King

Red Hat’s Bluecurve airbrushes out some differences between KDE and Gnome, altering icons and menu selections KDE or Gnome users would otherwise see and making them look the same.

This is key to the success of linux… too many choices is a bad thing.

What happened to the vaunted US team?

The European team called it “doing a McGinley” when a few of the members teased Captain Sam Torrance and said he had outsmarted himself.

Torrance may have made the bold play, but it was Paul McGinley who showed the wisdom in his captain’s decision as the Europeans wrested the Ryder Cup from the favored Americans on a sun-kissed Sunday at The Belfry.

It was a wonderful [[Ryder Cup]] this year.

Keep an eye out here for up to the minute results.

What’s going on with Tiger? He’s lost both the matches he played in today. I can’t understand why he has such difficulties in professional match play given his record as an amatuer.
