You do know that Windows only crashes because of bad drivers, right?
<g>
As an aside: When did this notion that device drivers weren't part of
the OS start? A device driver is an intimate pice of code that has
it's fingers in many dangerous places and has always been considered a
part of the OS for as long as I can remember. Sometime in the past 5
years, Microsoft managed to con everyone into thinking "Device drive
!= operating system" --

So what? The consumer is doing that allready today. Show me the MS

Of course RealNetworks and MS try to push their own formats.. Real has done
this for ages without anyone compalining.. you cant even record a RAM
stream because thei are opposed to it.

So ? Everyone and their web site knows that Windows media delivers
second rate quality audio. Even if they change that, they still have a
reputation, that sounds like it is going to get worse after they
introduce big brother technology [tm]. Microslush has an amazing
capacity to hurt their own image.

Is this it ?
" Under Microsoft's new restrictions -- which prevent its built-in
software from recording MP3 files at fidelity rates higher than 56 kilobits
per second -- MP3 music "sounds like somebody in a phone booth underwater,"
Read it again WICH PREVENTS ITS BUILT_IN SOFTWARE

Nowhere in the Bible is the claim made that the people the Israelites

It's not "a change in wording". It's a more accurate translation of the
original text. The original Hebrew accurately translates to "murder".
Are you suggesting the less accurate translation you're sticking with:
"Thou shalt not kill" is a ban on killing animals and plants? Those
are instances of killing, but not of murder. Just because you don't want
to believe it's the most accurate translation doesn't mean it ain't.

Unfortnately they also seem to have the amazing ability to bullshit their
way out of anything and the general public think the sun shines out of MS's
backside - everytime an end user 'upgrades' to newer versions of windows
and find many of their applications won't work they blame the suppliers of
their applications rather than the Operating system which is perfect because
MS told them it is.

As I thought I pointed out:
This is a raging debate among bible schollars. The current
understanding is that 'murder' is the more correct translation,
however, we can't know.
We can't know because there is no "original Hebrew" to refer to. The
oldest copies of the text are in Greek (the older Hebrew texts have
not survived/not been discovered).

I've found the programs in the book "C++ Primer Plus" by Stephen Prata.
See attached source code.
Under VC++6.0 7 errors were reported as C2448. The variable str could
not access a private part in a class.
Under g++ the program compiled fine. The program runs fine.
I'm using 2.95.2 version of Gnu C.
I used "g++ -o workmi workmi.cpp workermi.cpp strng2.cpp"
It appears that VC++ can not handle the code properly. After all this
program did come from a the MITCHELL WAITE Series.

So you'll be switching this weekend then? I can run both Windows NT
and Windows 2K Pro both simultaneously on my Linux box ( each with

They work great. It's the most satisfying way to run Windows NT/2K.
