Bristol (which makes a product called Wind/U that is meant to bridge the code gulf between Windows and a competitor, Unix, and vice versa) says Microsoft withheld the NT code to keep Bristol -- and Unix programmers -- out of the software game now dominated by Windows-viable products. Microsoft, unsurprisingly, denies the claim. But after Gates pulled...

...freshman year. But it only gets worse. The geniuses at the undergraduate housing office have a do-it-yourself philosophy regarding these matters. One individual in each blocking group is required to locate a mysterious room hidden in the depths of the Science Center and navigate the HTML and Java of an original computer program designed to compile the database of blocking groups for the office. No computer specialist patrols the room of beeping machines while anxious first-years painstakingly enter loads of information about their blockmates (some of whom are only recent acquaintances) into the program. Such precious info...
