<Surfer971> the gist is, if you put HTML in e-mail, it will look stupid in many e-mail clients and people will point and yell lamer lamer at you all day long until your boss hears and fires you and you become a useless drunk passed out on the floor and finally you get so fat the floor colapses and you land on somebody, get sued, then jump off a building

<nikk> where can I get the source for kernel32 ? a VC proggy keeps crashing
with it
> nikk: try http://www.microsoft.com/
<nikk> satya : cool
> nikk: er
> i doubt you'll find it
<nikk> satya : what ? they don't give the source for download ? what do I have
to do ? order it on CD ?
> nikk: dunno
<nikk> hmm.. doubt that company will survive.. people will never buy
software if they can't get the source
<nikk> maybe some one should write their CEO and tell him
(on porting DJGPP to Linux:)
<P2501> ...why port something that is a port to another
operating system, back to the operating system that it originally
started out on?
(sarcasm)
<MarsSaxman> just think! you could combine all the stability,
predictability, and coherence of Windows with all the user-friendliness
and ease of use of Linux
<Surfer971> I can't understand it when people say "well, my computer has a old 2 gig hard drive and a old P200 processor" they obviously have never used a *NIX --Surfer971
