If you’ve ever wanted to see pictures of all your favorite webheads, here’s your chance!

I just installed and played with Windows 2000 Terminal Services for the first time, and take it from me, you must try it out if you have a Win2K machine. There’s something overwhelming about logging into your Win2K machine remotely, and getting your own separate login, with your own separate profile, not just a mirror of the currently-displayed screen on the machine itself. VERY cool.

News.com is reporting that Netscape will be releasing a beta of Mozilla within the next month or so. Of course, by definition, a beta should be feature-complete and need only debugging work, and from personal experience with the current state of Mozilla, there’s no way that the version that they release will be anywhere near that benchmark. I reported CSS table rendering problems eons ago (including plain lack of implemented functionality, not just incorrectly-implemented functionality), and have dutifully received notices every few weeks that someone has moved the target fix milestone release back. The bugs/missing functionalities were originally supposed to be fixed in M11; as of the latest update, they won’t be addresses until M16. Disheartening.

Byte Magazine has a thorough review of 802.11b wireless networking offerings, for those of you who have been caught by the same jones I have for slapping one of these little beauties in your laptop and being able to wander around without wires. I’m just biding my time, waiting for the price on the ethernet bridges to come down a little (or for some benevolent soul to ship one off to me as a little gift!).

Yesterday, between TBS and A&E, it was a good movie day. Now that I have a TV in my office, I just left it running all day while I worked, and in rapid succession, I got Footloose, Honeymoon in Vegas, Grease, Cool Hand Luke, and A League of Their Own. Very nice.

It’s a pretty rare day when you are treated to the phrase “The one-year-old bitch” in a news story.

The notion of a table condiment that helps battle obesity seems pretty neat, but I’d imagine that this should be a pharmaceutical thing, not a food-service industry thing.

Does this work on W2K Professional or only W2K *Server?
