Clinton rewrites history

Clinton rewrites history

“All of this is relevant today because the Kerry Democrats want Americans to remember the 1990s as a Periclean-Clinton Age, while blaming the Bush Administration for the costs of cleaning up after the bubble and fighting the war on terror. If only we’ll return to the Clinton mix of tax hikes to finance more spending on health care and education, they now say, the boom will return. As you can see, that wasn’t–and wouldn’t be–the half of it. “

Windows XP Service Pack 2 preview

I’ve been using the “preview version” of Windows XP Service Pack 2, and I must say that Microsoft is doing good with this update.  I do have a few complaints about their new download warnings, as it may turn off neophytes to downloading good software, but otherwise it’s a worthwhile update.

Of particular importance is that Internet Explorer now blocks all pop-ups by default, and it works much better than any pop-up blocker that I have used before.  This is great, because when the designer that controls over 90% of the web browser market blocks pop-ups by default, it’s going to send pop-up pimps packing.
