Highlights include operating systems, Internet "munchies" and creative solutions & fixes: * "FreeBSD for everyone / FreeBSD alla portata di tutti" - Imagine a box with DOS & Windows, then rearrange it into a trio of PCs connected by OS/2 Warp. But your Warped network doesn't really rock 'n' roll until you open it up to one more performer-- not Linux, but FreeBSD. * "A Cure for the Internet Munchies" - If e-commerce overtakes the WWW, then what will happen to community activities like comp. user groups and homepage publishing, and how will we value and appreciate our personal ideas and work? * "The First, Last & Only Really Big Software Fix" - How do we find programs that will give us high performance without costly upgrades and bugs? Maybe "leanware" is the answer, available for a choice of operating environments e.g. Linux, DOS and OS/2. * "Alternative Keyboards" - Repetitive Strain Injury has sparked interest in alternative keyboards and input devices. Other keyboards are designed for dual language support. * "Setting Standards for Document Formats - Can open standards such as SGML replace proprietary application formats? If we do find a great document standard, how will the vendors comply with it? Visit IACT's website to check out the great possibilities of FreeBSD, OS/2, leanware and much more. bookmark IQ Newsletter Issue #10: -> URL: http://www.iact.net/ Send via OS2.org online news formular. ----------- To unsubscribe yourself from this list, send the following message to majormajoratos2voice.org unsubscribe news end If you have an announcement you would like posted to the VOICE News list, please send it to submitatos2voice.org.
