Quote:Actually, Word DOES let you have multiple documents open at once. Since you almost never use it, I'm not surprised you didn't notice. But, you can just minimize the document INSIDE the program instead of the whole thing, and it's stored on the bottom of the program window as a little box, and you can do the same with anything else. Of course, that's never been an issue for me.
Sorry, but it doesn't. There is no way to minimize files in the Word window, and when you go to open or create a document it does it in a whole new program instance. Maybe Word XP added it, but 2000 definitely does NOT have that feature.
Quote: Yeah GR, major flaw in that theorum... All three console makers are banking on the idea that selling the consoles at loss is an investment to get it all back in software sales. Sorry, the theory that Sony is purposfully doing this sort of a scam is silly. That's Divx player's jobs! Okay, that format is outdated, but they are going to attempt it again with some new DVD format. They don't realize people are all going to HATE the idea of a company FORCING a product that would otherwise last forever to be a disposable. It's never once worked in the past to do this, like with the Divx player, and it won't work this time.
Not once the price to make the console gets below the retal price...
As for Divx it might have failed as a seperate player, but its one of the most common formats for video files on the web (read: pirated movies/tv show eps in filesharing programs). :)
