I'm Ignignot and this is Err. We are Mooninites from the innercore of the moon. Our race is hundreds of years beyond yours. Some would say that the earth is our moon, but that would belittle the name of our moon which is the moon.

I really hate doing this

And I know some people hate it when it happens, but I must point out the obvious spelling error in the title. It's one of the first things a reader sees and shouldn't be there. The word is correctly spelled 'Massachusetts'. Thanks timothy.

Im sick of people cursing senselessly because it makes them feel tough. You would have had good point there had you took a second to NOT sound like an ignorant fool. Besides you know what I'm sick of? People preaching on the forums. Do you really have nothing better to do than to tell a bunch of would be Mandrake users and script kiddies how to post? oh god the hypocracy... it's.... killing me...

Nice post man

Hey, I modded you insightful, even though I know its going to get crushed in the avalanche of trolls and flamebaits. Keep up the good work! Ah fuck, I'm gonna get raped on meta mod arn't I :(

The old veiled ad hominem attack

[Anonymous Coward]

Dressed up as pity for the "misunderstanding zealots".

Sometimes it comes as an apology that's really nothing more than an attempt to label an argument "immoral" or somesuch.

It's a lot easier to say "You misguided fools, I know so much more than you" than it is to refute any argument, isn't it?

Of course, if you argue as eloquently as you post, well, all I have to say is you need some help with grammar and punctuation. We'll leave logic for after your brain has developed.

Well, it seems that the American system may work afterall.. regardless of how much money MS has, they don't seem able to stop the TRUTH from coming out. They appear to have reached their high point and are now on the way down...finally. The real innovators (Linux/Sun/Cisco/IBM/etc..) are going to ultimately win even if not in the courtroom of the DOJ, they will win in the courtroom of public opinion.

we are always going head to head with J2EE, Linux, Solaris, Oracle, etc, etc, and yes, we loose often, but we win a fair bit as well.

Hi. That should be 'lose', not 'loose'.

Thanks,
