Actually I think we need not worry much about M$, because they will dig their own resting place as the time passes... for all we know they may have started in that direction with launch of Vista...
I noticed another thing recently there are bunch of people who are stuck in the cold with nobody being help them because they are using something called M$ Publisher :-) That's when I noticed that it is best left to them to do that theirs acts and drama while sensible people quietly work on better and nicer things like improving performance of Linux (just for e.g.) on given hardware platform. Little bit on technical ramblings here (hopefully tolerable).... Once a gentleman (an instructor) told me a simple formula for getting (giving) nice grade... in programming examination... Steps are like this... 1. Define output expected (expected output) ... 2. Check everybody's program... if it meets the requirement of expected output then they get passing grade 3. Count number of lines of actual code (excluding comments) in the working program submitted and person whose code has minimum number of lines gets highest grade... I have thought about this for quite a while and sincerely think this is a very nice formula even to evaluate or compare... our own selves... while coding I think some of us who are good at coding may work on finding out ways to make code compact and sharpening their own arsenal.. and finally hopefully nobody will flame me for this without changing the subject line... -- ______________________________________________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List: ([email protected]) List Information: http://plug.org.in/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/plug-mail Send 'help' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for mailing instructions.
