Now I love C, I think it is great and use it whenever I can. However, I do not think I would suggest that C is a 'clean' language design. Both C and C++ have their flaws from language purist standpoints. As far as a book recommendation K&R is a must for anyone serious about C, and I have found...

Hi: I am having an odd problem in Outlook 2000 where every message I print gets a blank page trailing the message. I thought it was probably a printer setting a first, but everything seemed normal under the printer's preferences, and there is no trailing page after I print in Word, Excel, etc...

Hi everyone: I have a couple of Win2k Professional clients with SP1 here at work that are getting some curious application errors. I have tried looking in TechNet/KB and other Microsoft avenues but haven't found an answer so I'm hoping you guys can help me out. What happens is we try and close...

Hello Everybody: I just wanted to drop a short note to see if anyone knew of a decent emulator for the StrongARM chips, with my first preference being for the 1110 chip. I'm really looking for one that will work under SPARC although if it works on Linux I'll take that also. Thanks in advance...

Thank you very much for the advice...I can't believe that didn't dawn on me. Have a great weekend.

Hi Everyone: I'm having some woes with my $DISPLAY variable when I telnet over to one of the lab systems at my school. I'd be perfectly happy if when I tried to run emacs on that machine it was stupid and ran it like I was running a normal telnet session, but alas it tries to user my display...

Okay, I'm a little confused as to why to check memory performance you need to actually play around with the actual memory addresses. Anyway, I was wrong and its just that you have too many objects on the stack. That isn't your whole program right in that snippet is it? For example I don't see a...

I've been in the world of Java lately, so my pointer action is a little rusty, but in CalArray you realize you're just jumping around to random memory addresses right? Is this maybe what you meant... That way you are just incrementing your counter, rather than sloshing through memory. My guess...

This is on a mobile Celeron 500 w/ 100MHz bus and PC100 RAM

Okay, you're going to have to use the SMTP your mom's ISP uses. It doesn't really matter that the account is in your mom's name or that she is the only one that uses that e-mail. The SMTP box, more than likely, won't do any type of verification other than making sure you are dialed in on there...

Thank You, now I feel stupid for not scrolling down far enough on the main ZoneLabs page to catch that. Thanks once again!

Hi: I'm getting ready to move from my modem to DSL, so I wanted some firewall protection. I decided ZoneAlarm looked like the solution I wanted, so I downloaded it. When I try and run at the highest security mode, so that I have advantages like stealth, both Outlook and IE can't seem to get a...

Maybe we could do a MySQL battle royale to do more of a straight up OS comparison(Plus I don't have SQL Server ;) ) and then an Linux/Oracle vs. Win2k/SQL Server I really don't think MySQL vs. SQL Server would be a fair test, because some features that really are enterprise features such...

I'm more than willing to give some of my win2k machines processing cycles to this shoot out, if we can come up with an agreeable benchmark for the test. My machine is a laptop, so nothing that requires a killer graphics card would be nice. Maybe a MySQL, or similar, DB benchmarking test? It...

That's great that the platform has a resource like that, and it would behoove Apple to shove a link to that somewhere prominent on Mac OSX. It is unfortunate that most computer users still are too lazy, or uneducated about computers, to use the resources provided to them, such as convient ways...

nibs, how many users do you think are willing to recompile their Mac app, or to download the latest version? I doubt alot will, speaking from experience. Now that Hotmail is transfering over to Win2k, and killing IE 3.02 support, you'd be suprised how many customers are crawling out of the...

The coolest part of that result, not only are the top 5 machines win2k, but they all are considerably cheaper based on Price/tpmC.

Well, as I get to have this great piece of software on my computer to test out our companies web page, and make sure it will look okay on the next Netscape, I thought I'd try Peter's page on it. After an exciting 54 seconds of processing the page displayed, and none of the palettes showed up...

You do tend to get addicted to constructs in one language or another, but when I'm in Java I really don't miss my C/C++ pointers at all. There are some neat tricks I could do with pointers, but you generally find a class that'll do the same thing for you, just with a little(or alot) more effort...

I think you are right, the average consumer wouldn't go looking for the latest VIA drivers, but the consumer would probably buy from Dell, or Quantex, or Gateway. They are also probably going to look for the shiny designed for Windows 200 sticker. Since a VIA system can't have that sticker, the...
