I&#8217;m planning on buying myself a laptop and debated whether I should get one now with XP installed or wait and get one with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/windowsvista\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">Vista<\/a> installed. If I got one now, I could get a free upgrade to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/windowsvista\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">Vista<\/a>, but installing an operating system scares me, so I&#8217;m waiting until <a href=\"http:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/windowsvista\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">Vista<\/a> comes out. I&#8217;m interested in seeing what it&#8217;s like. Security features should be better and menus for the office products will be completely different. Not sure what else, but should be interesting to see reviews.<\/p>\n<p>So my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/Graphics\/SVG\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">svg<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/xmlgraphics.apache.org\/batik\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">batik<\/a> project, I built an applet on a laptop running <a href=\"http:\/\/java.sun.com\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">java 1.4.2_09<\/a>. Bring it over to my desktop running <a href=\"http:\/\/java.sun.com\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">java 1.5.0_09 <\/a>and it won&#8217;t init. In the jsp which calls the applet, I was using .\/ before the codebase path and archive jar file paths. Once I removed all instances of .\/, the applet ran beautifully under <a href=\"http:\/\/java.sun.com\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">java 1.5.0_09<\/a>. Strange.<\/p>\n<p>By the way, the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wiflyer.com\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">wiflyer<\/a> is still awesome. I haven&#8217;t been able to connect at a speed greater than 26400 bps though. Still have other settings to try though. You can buy the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wiflyer.com\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">wiflyer<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wiflyer.com\/StoreFront.bok\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a> or at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B0006ZTERE\/103-6420379-5551043?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=extcas-20&amp;linkCode=xm2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creativeASIN=B0006ZTERE\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Has anyone tried the dial up isp <a href=\"http:\/\/www.toast.net\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">toast.net<\/a>? Speed tests at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cnet.com\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">cnet<\/a> list it as being the fastest dial up isp. Reviews are good and it has a lot of access numbers in my area. Cheaper than netzero too. One drawback though is the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.toast.net\/terms\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">terms<\/a> say plans are not meant for always on access. Connections idle for 30 minutes or lasting more than 4 hours will be dropped. Yet the plans include unlimited access. Doesn&#8217;t sound very unlimited to me if you can&#8217;t leave your connection on as long as you want to, which is what I do. Guess this isn&#8217;t the best isp for me. I don&#8217;t know if <a href=\"http:\/\/www.toast.net\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">toast.net <\/a>is compatible with the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wiflyer.com\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">wiflyer<\/a> either.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now available for prelaunch at Amazon is Windows Vista and its full line of Office 2007 products which will be launching on January 30.
