I'm with Elbekko on this one, I know who he was and has seen his shows, but frankly I don't get the fuss about someone famous dying. Sure it sad for his relatives, but this man lived to the fullest and knew the dangers, yet he decided to risk his life doing what he loved and utimately paid the price.
I actually find much more sad when your average soccer-mom who plays it safe to take care of the family is killed in a meaningless traffic-accident. But I guess that being famous makes you life more valuable i todays society. I mean where is the thread on Pulkovo Airlines Flight 612 which crashed in the Ukraine killing 160 people, 45 of them children? Or any of the many other disaster in the world involving un-famous people.
Nuff said.

Before you install to much stuff on Beta 2, you might like to now that RC1 (build 5600) is out. Right now it is officially only available to a limited group, but it will be available to all Beta 2 testers in a few days. RC1 performance is so much better - and memory usage is almost half that of Beta 2, very nice specially when running virtualized where memory is often limited.

Have a look at System.Runtime.Serialization and System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary.BinaryFormatter in particular.
It is a whole different way of thinking than with PHP's pack() as C# is OO and each object is responsible for its own serialization.

I checked some internal sites and only found IIS logos so ugly that they could only have been done by programmers. So IIS does, to the best of my knowledge, not have an official logo.

hcgtv: The logo you found is from the, now retired, Microsoft BackOffice series.

A VM is great for testing without messing up the production environment. You can try Virtual PC for free (45 days), I would reccomend this for workstation use.
In server space you can try Virtual Server for free (180 days) and VMware also has a free VMware Server the VMware is a Beta though.

I'll let you know when I get to the warehouse and pick it up.

Sounds reasonable, I'm running on daily builds of IE7 and I don't see any problems, at least not at punbb.org. I think it is quite safe to wait for beta 2 (I personally think releasing a build called "beta 2 preview" is confusing), there will be plenty of time from beta 2 to RTW.

Opened a lot of alertboxes, but no calc or crash in IE 7.

Don't forget Microsoft SQL-server. To me it looks like MySQL (and PostgreSQL) are the ones that should try to catch up and follow the standard, Oracle, IBM and Microsoft are the three largest players in the db market.
Extending a standard can be fine if what you need is not in the standard, but implementing an alternative solution and not the standard is wrong.

I did a page on a website som time ago where the users changed some settings and as I did a post-back on each change anyway I didn't make a submit button. Sure enough, the users came back complaining about the lack of a save button. I wrote a small notice on the page explaing that there was no save button and everything would be saved anyway. No luck, people still complained so I ended up adding a button without any function whatsoever...

.NET rewrite? - Rickard is already working full time on .NET solutions, so the rewrite is only natural. ;-)
