    Who are you guys going to vote for in 2004?

    Like Bush is? Moore provides documented evidence behinds his statements, even if he slants the evidence. Bush just lies. "That's kind of one of those - exaggerations" Right

    Keep the Pressure on Bush/Cheney

    Halliburton is the oil equipment company that Cheney used to run before he become VP. He STILL receives a 'stipend' from them which is basically equal to the salary he gets as the VP (in the 100 thousand range). Halliburton is under investigation for various contract violations, such as...

    ???s about computer

    Its called Virtual PC. newer versions of Virtual PC do require Mac OS X, but there are older versions that run on older versions of the MacOS quite fine. Mac OS X can also run many if not most 'linux' programs, so it really gives you a triple whammy. Mac, linux and PC apps on one machine at...

    Can you support Kerry without bashing Bush?

    A large reason why many people support Kerry isn't because of kerry himself, but because Bush is so awful. A humorous slant on that is available at www.johnkerryisadouchebagbutimvotingforhimanyway.com A couple of reasons to support Kerry.. (a LOT of them are easy to contrast with Bush...

    just a suggestion (internet browsers)

    Most of the time, when a website is 'designed' for IE, it is specifically told to give one set of code to IE, and another set to other browsers. There are some browsers which can 'spoof' their identity, and tell a website they are something else. Simply having a browser that does this goes a...

    just a suggestion (internet browsers)

    That might have been true in the past. Not anymore. Normal, large websites have recently been infected with a 'trojan horse' whose primary purpose is to steal your personal information. The trojan horse feeds your personal info to the russian mob so they could buy things like Porsches. Which...

    Apple Blasts Microsoft's Longhorn

    The pictures aren't very inspiring except for the text. Banjo already quoted them, and they are quite a shot across the bow, basically daring Microsoft to copy the technology in 'Tiger'. That said, i wouldn't mind copies of the banners themselves to use as a desktop picture. =)

    just a suggestion (internet browsers)

    My rule of thumb is to avoid IE whenever possible. Popups, malware, security exploits, and an endless list of problems. (Bad standards support, such as sucky CSS and no PNG support, etc) Hasn't even been updated in years. Almost every browser EXCEPT IE has popup blocking built in. And TABS...

    XP vs OS X

    No matter how you rename a file... so if you rename yourself Mike Tyson Jr, your dad will be Mike Tyson? Thats how it works with PCs. This means that you often have files which you can't open because they you lost track of which application it belongs to. They play "Who's my daddy?" all the...

    Anti Virus

    Virus? what's a virus? I've never experienced one on my computer, and as far as I can tell, they don't exist on the Mac. Zero Virus zone. So no need for anti-virus software. I actually think that software is a scam, at least for the mac. I vote none of the above! :mrgreen:

    XP vs OS X

    A minimum of 256 MB ram is a good idea for Mac OS X. It works differently than Mac OS 9, and uses ram whenever it can to make things work efficiently. So the more the merrier. But gigabytes of memory required? hardly. XP isn't necessarily easier to install, but it is easier to install on a PC...

    XP vs OS X

    Yeah, two. =) There's windows 3.1, windows 95, windows 98, windows ME, windows 2000, windows NT, and windows XP. 'Windows' is a brand name for various RELATED operating system versions. It's not one OS. Could also say that mac os 9, mac os X, etc are different systems. Then add various Linux...

    What Do You Think Of Reagan?

    Conservatives have been pushing similar things for awhile.. while he was still alive. One thing that pissed quite a number of people off was the renaming of Washington National Airport to Reagan National. Umm... this was after Reagan called the national guard out on a pilots strike, and...

    Announcement by Philip Moos - Copyright Infringement

    Indeed, it isn't. That might be a copyright infringement of MSNBC's work. You do have a point in that collecting deaf news is rather easy in this day and age. I often use Google news alerts with deaf related keywords. BUT.. and this is the big, hairy, ugly BUT(t).. reprinting any of this is...

    Announcement by Philip Moos - Copyright Infringement

    The statement from Moos can be misinterpreted. I did misunderstand that statement myself. The entire statement from Moos really is too brief, and too much on the 'attack', without clarifying the legal issue is being violated. I feel that by posting this Moos perhaps stepped beyond reasonably...

    Announcement by Philip Moos - Copyright Infringement

    I have a quicky FAQ explaining why 'cut and pasting' of news isnt a good idea. It seems that some deaf publications disregard this fact. And no, citing sources does not let you off the hook unless you are only quoting it. Its still 'publication', which only the copyright holder can give...

    Deaf USA for Kerry

    Thought I might help you with a few resources. Two non-partisan political deaf sites are Deafvotenow and Deafocrats. Theres a blog called Dean for Deaf America, you might want to contact the person behind it and see if he/she might be willing to work with you. good luck!
