Well, it's "Amber-One More Night remix." __________________________________________________________ From Lectrick (Feb19 18:01): Well, I got Myth II and Fallout already (because I bought them), just need to make images... if ya want 'em Also, I have to take a second here to plug the whole Fatboy Slim album- "You've Come A Long Way, Baby." It fucking rocks. In addition to that "catchy tune" Viclazlo mentioned, it also has another song touring the radio stations, "Praise You." The rest of the album is great, too. What a good artist. __________________________________________________________ From Orbital Binary - afk (Feb19 07:35): MANILA (Reuters) - Philippine officials, bowing to public pressure, have removed a congressman jailed for rape from fairly luxurious quarters in the national prison and put him in the company of hundreds of other convicts. Reporters were allowed into the maximum security compound of the national penitentiary Thursday and shown the vacated quarters of Congressman Romeo Jalosjos for the first time. A color television set had been packed away but vestiges of a comfortable life remain - a soft bed in one room, paintings on the walls, a kitchen with shelves stacked with food and a tiled bathroom equipped with a water heater. A treadmill stood outside the room. Guards have padlocked a food kiosk which Jalosjos had built to sell hamburgers, hot dogs and spaghetti to fellow prisoners. But a tennis court he had renovated using his own money still echoed with the sound of prisoners playing a set or two. __________________________________________________________ From Orbital Binary - afk (Feb19 01:42): Okay, I've got a few incredibly stupid and evil products we have got to all agree NOT to buy!! 1. eMachines (damn evil cheap windoze boxes) 2. the "new" commodore64 (AMD486 and webtv hybrid, sux) 3. anything related to the snailium 3 and it's web ID# chip. 4. a winblows CE palmtop (Go get a Palm machine instead) __________________________________________________________ From viclazlo here (Feb18 21:35): Also, if anyone knows the name of the tune or the band that band that does that song that's in both the trailers for "She's All That", and "Office Space" (that catchy tune) then i would love to know.

First off let's start with the problem that it's a 200+ MB download. Then let's look at the fact that when I tried to unstuff it, I got an error saying it was corrupt. So I guess I'll never know how the actual program works. Screen Shots look nice though. :) __________________________________________________________ From Canadian (DO NOT MSG!)

Fuck her real goood... __________________________________________________________ From ph@ (Feb16 14:27): Disney has always been a huge supporter of Apple. The Orlando production studios for Mulan, when I was there, were amply outfitted with top of the line Macs - plus a few SGI systems (all totally overshadowed by the hand illustrated artwork all over the walls and desks). And Disney is a fantastic employer - I have several friends there who love it. Disney is famous for the commitment to thorough execution and perfect delivery that Apple lacks, plus the money to fund rapid major advances and hold their own in the marketing jungle - Disney will surely see to it that every household has at least one Mickey mouse! I'd like to have a Walt Apple on my desk :) __________________________________________________________ From Colonel Merc (Feb16 14:01): I put a buy on Apple stock...of course it is 4:59 right now, so it will have to wait till tomorrow, but that may be too late. I think Disney/Apple stock will go up as a result of this deal. I don't think I could stand a big D and that butt-ugly mouse on my computer, but I don't think Jobs would let that happen. But if they are bought by Disney, then expect some SERIOUS funding by Disney, because they have DEEP pockets. All-in-all, I think it would be a very good thing for Apple, after the initial shock of Disney actually buying them. Especially since Jobs will still be on duty. __________________________________________________________ From Orbital Binary (Feb16 13:56): Canadian... I'm not sure if that's good or bad news. Do we want Apple to be simply a division of Disney? Many a pc-moron will say that disney bought out a "dying company", when in fact Apple just made it's big turnaround... but then buyers will be certain of Apple's financial security. I guess it's not too bad if Jobs is in the lead, and the Apple brand name stays on the computer products... __________________________________________________________ From (Feb16 08:22): Go Orbital!!! And Canadian, why am i an idiot? Carracho WILL NOT work on any systems earlier than 8.1, i tried! __________________________________________________________ From Canadian (Feb16 08:05): Rumors of an Apple-Disney partnership have circulated the Web for as long as we've been publishing, but we have never--until now--received any compelling details or evidence to justify printing the buyout rumors here (let alone those pictoral illusions--err, allusions--which just don't do it for us =). However, this story we've been following may provide the missing link. Steve Jobs incorporated Pixar computer animation studios in 1986 and since then Pixar has enjoyed tremendous success with its first motion picture release, ToyStory, and then with the recently released A Bug's Life. Much of its success--financial and otherwise--has been due to its relationship with Disney. Pixar first parterned with Disney in an agreement in which Disney would produce interactive CD titles for Pixar. Soon after, Pixar joined Disney in a film partnership that has since shown great success and financial rewards for each company. Due to the projected success of A Bug's Life, Disney CEO Michael Eisner and Jobs were reportedly in negotiations at one point to extend the five-film agreement to eight or ten films, at which point Jobs apparently mentioned something about the possibility of a Pixar buyout to Eisner. That's all she wrote... Using the same powers of persuasion that led Apple to buy NeXT, Jobs was reportedly able to convince his longtime friend, Eisner, and the rest of Disney's Board to consider a buyout of Pixar. According to our source, Jobs was able to 'sell Apple' by presenting it as the key to developing cutting-edge technology and the computing innovation necessary to bring it to the masses--leveraging Apple's strength in QuickTime and its growing influence in the consumer space. While our source only speculated on the strategic importance of Disney's acquisition of Apple, a closer relationship with Pixar would be beneficial for future projects. Jobs's leadership and charisma would certainly give Disney a unique position in the entertainment industry. Of course, as a respected industry visionary, Jobs has more up his sleeve than most could even imagine. Details, Details, Details By the end of the week, and possibly even today, Disney, Apple, and Pixar may announce what will amount to be a three-way multibillion dollar, multi-company, mega-merger in which Disney would acquire both Pixar and Apple. The agreement also reportedly calls for both Apple and Pixar to become independent divisions within Disney. This would allow Disney to leverage the strong Apple brand name in an effort to get technology into the hands of the mass market. As part of the agreement, Jobs would become CEO of Disney, effective June 7th, 1999. Jobs would be charged with leading Disney, the new Pixar-based interactive studios division (headed by John Lasseter), and the Apple computing/technology division. Michael Eisner, who has been preparing to step down as CEO of Disney due to health concerns (originally prompted by a heart attack a few years ago), would reportedly remain the Chairman of Disney's Board of Directors. Money, Stock, Compensation According to sources, the deal will be completed in a stock swap worth more than $12 billion dollars (at current market estimates), with no cash exchanged. Both Apple and Pixar shareholders would receive Disney stock in exchange for their current holdings. Although the exact amount may vary with current market prices, estimates are that Disney will pay out nearly $7 billion in stock for Apple. (AAPL is currently valued at 37 11/16 as of 02/15). Jobs reportedly stands to gain as much as $5 billion in Disney stock-- which can be attributed to his significant stake in Pixar. His stake, which amounts to more than 60 percent of the company is currently valued at $1.3 billion. But more importantly, Jobs will be in the ultimate position to guide, shape, and create a vision for technology and people around the world. Where to go from here... While more details of the agreement were not immediately available, at least two sources have confirmed that Jobs and many members of the Apple Executive team have spent much of the past 10 days at Disney's headquarters in Burbank, California, working on the details of this landmark agreement. It seems clear that Disney has a lot to gain from having Pixar in house, particularly given the close relationship between the two. Although the specific strategic importance of Apple to Disney is still unclear, Apple's leadership in the creative markets and strong brand name in the computer industry can surely help Disney achieve its overriding objective "to create shareholder value by continuing to be the world's premier entertainment company from a creative, strategic, and financial standpoint. " The addition of Pixar into the Apple-Disney equation helps put together some of the puzzle pieces which have floated around without any logic or rationale; and may provide the missing link that would bring Jobs, Apple, and Disney together. More details Coming "very soon" As our source suggested, this is probably closer to reality than any other buyout rumor yet circulated and may, in fact, surface in today's editions of major mainstream publications. With the Disney shareholder meeting quickly approaching (next week, February 23rd), Apple's somewhat low-key (and premature), release of its highly touted Java Virtual Machine, MRJ 2.1, and Jobs's expected keynote at Macworld Expo Tokyo '99 on Wednesday night (Eastern Standard Time), we expect details on the emerging deal--confirmation or otherwise-- to surface very quickly. If true, this would be a momentous turn in the evolution of the computer industry, as all three companies will be poised to change the future of computing, interactivity, and entertainment using cutting edge Apple technology. __________________________________________________________ From Master Ninja (Feb16 03:41): Take them all out Orbital. __________________________________________________________ From Orbital Binary (Feb16 02:33): I am content at last.
