"By offering a sixty day trial of Microsoft's popular Office 2003, Tiny.COM is ensuring complete customer satisfaction" continued Trevaskiss. "Not only does Microsoft Office 2003 Trial allow consumers to try before they buy, they will also be able to benefit from the preferential upgrade price, saving them in the region of £230. This software presents a value for money solution and compliments Tiny.COM's dedication to provide its customers with high-quality, low-cost products"
Scott MacDonald, Microsoft's Office OEM Product Manager commented "We're pleased to work with partners such as Tiny.COM who are always looking for ways to deliver new tools for our joint customers that will help them be more productive at work, home and at school."
In addition to the Microsoft Office 2003 Trial software, all Tiny.COM customers will also receive a full version of Microsoft Works 7 with every Tiny.COM PC and Notebook, allowing customers to access files created in MS Office if they decide not to take advantage of the upgrade offer after the sixty day trial has expired.
Tiny.COM launched on 20th February 2004 promising to deliver the UK's best prices on PC systems and Notebooks, whilst guaranteeing the use of the same make or similar high quality components as those found in leading brand competitor PCs. In line with this promise, Tiny.COM recently announced the addition of a 'specials' section to its site, which will launch on 11th May 2004 and will offer ridiculously low-cost PC systems for a specified period of seven days.

"Another important addition to version 2.0 is the ability to pick a color based on its CMYK (a color model used by printers) value via the colors dialog."
i thought CMYK *is* one of the 2.0 features..
All you have to do is right-click to bring up the menu ( screenshot ) ... oh, you're on a mac, no right click button?

one of the biggest turn offs with the Gimp 1.x was the ugly interface.
and now Gimp 2.0 is here --- with only a slightly modified 1.x interface? its better, but not as good as i thought it would be.
emerge gimp
in Mandrake just:
urpmi gimp
And it downloads and installs GIMP. It is in fact even easier then in Windows.
GIMP + Mozilla + Nvu + OpenOffice = The poor man's multimedia/office replacement solution!
I am just amazed at the quality and features that these products offer, for free no less. These guys and gals deserve our continued support.
GIMP 2.0 is a nice improvement.
