Back in the 90's they also included a TCP/IP stack into Win95, which used to be a (horrible) 3rd party app on Win3.1.

Hi Mike, thanks for your kind offer! We have an old Windows XP machine that I would like to replace with a newer Windows 7 one. However, my wife is used to the old machine; in part…

I wouldn't say that the articles' metadata (URL, title, date of download, maybe thumbnail of the 1st page) is downloaded content. It's clearly user-generated, and should be in the …

I can totally believe it, we went with the family once to visit/snoop around the Google campus, but if Eric Schmidt or Larry Page had showed up, I don't think I would have recogniz…

My condolences Ed.

I wonder how much the name "Moodle" hindered its adoption.

Sincerely, I'd prefer all my digital remains to be cremated.

Yeah, what's up with that zero-sum-game malarkey?
