Nothing new or exciting in Leopard 2981

Well, true enough. There is a built in gui calendar program for CDE on all UNIXes that use CDE.
Hayes) So true, my friend. But Snit and Co. are not "marketing wankers". They are common users, like everyone else, who have believed those " wankers' " propaganda to the point of being unpaid shills. I bet...
Nope. Was it included in Win98?
Say... weren't you the guy that wanted a colorful desktop?
Oh yes they are, from a clbuttical point of history. MS was part of the consortium that developed these in the widget set. Every UNIX CDE system has them... they are part of the Motif widget set and copyrighted back in 1991. Later it was changed, but MS did participate.
It isn't MS that people hate... it is the certain people in MS that people do not like... Steve Ballmer for one. Now that loon must have been to too many seminars. I know a few MS programmers and one general manager, and they are pretty decent folks, but they never called the shots. None of these people work there anymore.
My old IBM had a snapshot program in case a new program that got installed screwed up the system. All you had to do was startup the program and go back in time to restore the system. Of course this only worked if the main system files weren't hosed. (win98)
