  • I ordered MathCAD 6 recently from a software place called MegaWatts . Still runs fine on OS 9.1, but you'll need to download the update for it after you've installed it. http://www.megawatts.com/v1/?cat=750...ew&pid=1399229 http://support…

  • Dude, if ANYONE from the stage is in a better place it's him. I got to see him 3 times, once during the "Addicted..." frenzy and twice afterwards. He was a fantastic musician and performer, and well-respected by his peers and those who knew him.

  • I gotta say, as a long-time portable user, there's a lot in favor of the 15. Screen size (same at home and on the road), video RAM, port location, bus speed, L2 cache options -- those are some of the most important things. You might also want …

  • Congrats, Leonis. I know it's nice to be back. I'm working my way back into astronomy (amateur) now that I'm all finished with graduate school. But it's been slow-going. I'm trying to get time now and then to get outside. I'm a big advocate…

  • I like all platforms, even my DRDOS 486, but Windows and its errors and unreliability would keep me from ever using it for real work, just as it always has. Whether it's XP or Win98SE (stable edition) or whatever, there are too many random erro…
