\_ I often have that same problem.

About 2 weeks ago, someone brought to my attention that our script
to periodically merge /etc/motd.public into /etc/motd wasn't
running. When I looked into it, the cron daemon was running, but
there hadn't been any root activity in the log since April 7th. I
looked into it for a while, but got lost in other things I was

version of Firefox will soon be vulnerable to online attacks." Are
they planning to turn off some security feature in my version of
Firefox?
\_ Not as such, no, but they're no longer developing this version,
so if a 3.6.x-targeted hack shows up, you're not going to get

widely adopted than Win 2k (5.0). Now it looks like Win 7 (6.1) is
going to be more widely adopted than Vista (6.0). Is this a trend on
Microsoft x.0 versions being bad?

Service Pack 3 installed. I have a valid key that I own (yeah yeah I
actually *bought* a copy, please don't flame me for supporting evil
M$). Is it possible to register the key once, and then duplicate it
for testing purposes? Will Windows or Microsoft detect copies and
disable the rest the copies?

PC->Mac transition? After finding out that Outlook is not supported
under Mac; I bought parallels and am installing XP to grab my outlook
mail archive (~1GB) from the original PC disk (the pc itself is
basically dead). Any suggestions on a relatively painless import to
entourage? The Mac Genius guy also reccomended an upgrade to 4GB and

2006/10/11-13 [Computer/SW/OS/Windows] UID:44779 Activity:nil | 10/11 Are Windows CE, Windows Embedded, and Windows Mobile the same thing?
They all sound like the Windows version for small devices. Is it just
a marketing thing to rename different versions of the same product?
Thanks.
\_ Windows CE is the generic term for Windows Mobile, which includes
"Pocket PC" Edition, and the castrated "Smartphone" edition.

I enjoyed the quote "The more you tighten your grip, Bill,
the more systems will slip through your fingers." But the
subject itself doesn't bode well. Microsoft is beggining a
drastic rollout of anti-piracy features that will make pirating
windows and or software in general near impossible.

do extra terminal licenses cost? tnx.
\_ OEM licenses are cheaper but you can't move them to a different
machine once you activate it. (OEM licenses are what you get when
you buy a new Dell, etc.)
