Now Live! Watch Microsoft

March 5, 2002 by Michael Boyle

Now Live! Watch Microsoft

play “brinksmanship” with the DoJ: Microsoft CEO: State Sanctions Would Destroy Windows. Idiots. It would destroy Windows because as a direct result of the previous anti-trust problems Microsoft made it so – totally their choice, and with this in mind in the first place. They tried to innoculate themselves by intertwining the browser with the OS. They now think that people didn’t realize that they were trying this all along, and that they can now scare people with the idea. I just hope the DoJ and/or the dissenting states have the pills to call their bluff.

While I’ve been

While I’ve been

working, travelling on business, and having lots of fun last weekend with some out of town guests, it seems that the music industry is finally starting to implode. High-profile columnist Steven Levy has weighed in with “The Customer is Always Wrong” in Newsweek, and a bunch of stars of yesteryear held a big show to protest record company contracts. What was the old line? You shouldn’t look a gift horse in the mouth? Well, if the gift horse is massive direct distribution via Napster you probably shouldn’t. Maybe the stuff that Albini and Love started hammering on a while back is finally going to stick.

has written a response to my post last night about structure and CSS. I agree with him that CSS support is marginal on the whole, and even though I think it’s a great idea to move towards all-CSS designs, I also agree that it’s probably a little early to do so for big sites. Personal sites – that depends on the individual. The astute reader will notice that I have gone with a hybrid design here, using tables where I could not get CSS to work as I wanted it to. There is some degradation in Netscape 4, but with a corresponding improvement in the display in other browsers, so I consider that a wash.

In related news, I took another look at the structure in my own html files, and I realized that I can go a lot further down that road. I’m going to look into doing that in the next couple of days.
