Windows 2000 Gets Common Criteria Certification
Qnal writes "e-Week is reporting that Microsoft Windows 2000 has been awarded Common Criteria Certification.. Read more of the propaganda here. Basically, according to the article Any user running Windows 2000 with Service Pack 3 is running exactly the same system that was evaluated. The Common Criteria certification is an internationally recognized ISO standard established for evaluating the security of infrastructure technology products. Too bad it takes 3 Service Packs..."
Do you like the vagina??
I wonder of the "complex challenge" she speaks of is referring to cashing that big cheque (or 'check', for those who spell American)...
It's funny. Laugh.
The SP3 thing sound fishy. I wonder if they've got extra tricks up their sleeves regarding W2k. It just seems too much of a coincidence that to be Common Criteria Certified or to run the next Office release you'll need SP3. Something is brewing in the seedy minds of Microsoft's lawyers, methinks...
Of course! What else would it be?

The two rules for success are:
1) Never tell them everything you know.
Except for that open source commie pinko faggot beardie part, I agree. Is this what it takes to get a article submitted here? Just flame MS for no reason at all? Get your fscking act together, and try to fix Linux problems before whining about MS. Give me a reason to switch, before I save enough for a Mac!

AMEN!
I am sick of all the Microsoft bashing myself. I wish I had a $1 for every elitist jerk that thought it was witty to say "M$".
Heres why Linux wont work on the desktop. If you run a company you want to spend as little money and time on frivelous activites as possible. This is why the software company I worked at failed-- their software required training and our customers didnt have the time or money to waste training employees. Linux is in the same boat. It might be free, but you have to waste all kinds of time and (therefore money) bringing everyone up to speed. Its not worth the effort when everyone can already use Windows and finding a Windows administrator is easy.
Linux should stay in the server market where it belongs and all these elite slashdot fools should take their misplaced anger out on some other thing.
