  Re: Lego Purity
 
(...) lol Is there a contest running (which I'm not aware of) that consist in quoting in Lugnet the most complex math. function? :-) Didier "7.83" Enjary (...) (17 years ago, 28-Sep-07, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: My fault
 
Hello there! I'm going to Seoul, Korea in a few months for business, and was wondering if any one knew 'ANYTHING' about Lego in Korea... Do major department stores stock newer sets...are the prices similar?!? Is there any Korean-Canadians out there (...)

  Oh no, not that old Mac vs PC again!
 
(...) I have never said or even thought of Apple appearing to be dead. But my experience of Mac users is that they have had a very condescending attitude towards us Windows losers... I mean users. As you and I haven't discused this utterly boring (...) (18 years ago, 1-Apr-07, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, FTX)
 
  Re: Notetab
 
(...) LOL Notepad creates at least one registry entry too (and I don't want to know how many more!) ROSCO (18 years ago, 1-Apr-07, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, FTX)
 
  Re: RACHAL Changeover
 
(...) Thanks. I've already done that now. /Tore (18 years ago, 1-Apr-07, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: RACHAL Changeover
 
(...) Apple *no longer appears to be a dead company* and now we are the snobs? (18 years ago, 1-Apr-07, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, FTX)
 
  Notetab
 
(...) Ok, I replaced Notepad with Notetab, and it is surprisingly fast and in all ways better than MS Notepad. All ways - except one: I also replaced one single .exe file with 129 files in 7 new folders, 3.37 Mb using 5,4 million bytes of disk (...) (18 years ago, 1-Apr-07, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, FTX)
 
  Re: RACHAL Changeover
 
(...) I've been dealing with this issue my whole Mac using life. I can understand your frustration but not your insistence that everyone comply with your OS. When I've done that in the past I get laughed at. The very existence of the LDraw for Mac (...) (18 years ago, 1-Apr-07, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: RACHAL Changeover
 
(...) And Notepad.exe is 56 kb. Yes, I know I exaggerated. I think I had NoteTab or something very similar in my previous Windows installation due to the 64k limitation in Notepad. And before that, I hacked Notepad to suggest the .dat extension in (...) (18 years ago, 1-Apr-07, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, FTX)
 
  Re: RACHAL Changeover
 
(...) And, of cousre, the long filenames. :) I rushed together a DOS program called linefix.exe that takes care of the linefeeds while you uploaded the new version of the MPD. I never use MLCad even though it is installed. Browsing parts or models (...) (18 years ago, 1-Apr-07, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, FTX)
 
  Re: RACHAL Changeover
 
(...) Last I checked, the Notetab light installation was 1.4M (yes it still fits on a floppy), and it loads in less than a second on my XP machine. I have been using it for at least 3 years, and I would also highly recommend it for Windows users. (...) (18 years ago, 1-Apr-07, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, FTX)
 
  Re: RACHAL Changeover
 
(...) Then I misinterpreted the talk of Mac and Linux earlier in this thread. (18 years ago, 1-Apr-07, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, FTX)
 
  Re: RACHAL Changeover
 
--snip-- (...) I realised I may have been barking at a joke for which I would and should apologise. It would seem I'm not so I make no apologies. (...) I use a Windows XP machine. Tim (18 years ago, 1-Apr-07, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, FTX)
 
  Re: RACHAL Changeover
 
(...) They still can last I noticed. The earlier version of the file will and does work perfectly well in MLCad (I know this because I opened it in MLCad to make sure before submitting it to ldraw.org for the challenge). It would probably work in (...) (18 years ago, 1-Apr-07, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, FTX)
 
  Re: RACHAL Changeover
 
(...) You apologize or... you don't? You keep bantering on the far most popular system in the world. Not because it is the best, I am very well aware of that, but because the vast majority of computer users around the globe don't find the (...)

  Re: RACHAL Changeover
 
(...) I expected that reply too from you. I once liked LDraw because anyone with almost any computer could use it. (18 years ago, 1-Apr-07, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, FTX)
 
  Re: RACHAL Changeover
 
(...) PS. And I apologise if your tone in (URL) this post> was less serious than I read it. I really don't like the attitude that one should be forced to cater to every bit of rubbish programming by the folks at Redmond. (18 years ago, 1-Apr-07, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, FTX)
 
  Re: RACHAL Changeover
 
(...) That's fine by me. But please don't complain if a perfectly correct text file doesn't display right in Notepad or expect me to help cater to your use of bad software. Tim (18 years ago, 1-Apr-07, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, FTX)
 
  Re: The LEGO Group Selects NetDevil to Create Branded MMOG
 
(...) Actually, if I remember correctly, Magic: The Gathering online lets you convert in-game cards into real physical cards (under drastic conditions, as far as I remember). Maybe it doesn't quite qualify as MMOG, though. (18 years ago, 27-Mar-07, to lugnet.mediawatch, lugnet.off-topic.geek, FTX)
 
  Picture of Jupiter from Saturn
 
(URL) me, that's tres cool. But here's what I have a problem with-- "Jupiter is imaged here from more than 11 times the distance between Earth and the Sun, or slightly farther than the average Earth-Saturn distance. As demonstrated by Pale Blue Orb, (...) (18 years ago, 23-Mar-07, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
