Three LindowsOS PCs Reviewed
Eugenia writes "Not one, but three LindowsOS-based PCs (in the value range of $199 USD) were reviewed online by WashingtonPost. A TigerDirect PC, the traditional WalMart/MicrotelPC and one from Nova Computech. The reviewer says that these PCs while are very low-end today, compared to PCs 2 years ago, are actually pretty good solutions for home usage. The reviewer found them lacking in the gaming (no respectable 3D gfx card included), expandibility departments and while he mentions that Linux-based LindowsOS is affordable, is not a panacea as it lacks in good USB support and other demanding areas of our modern times."
On my Radeon 9500 X wouldn't even start after I installed the drivers. Useless. This was with the latest Red Hat release, and the latest binaries from the ATI website.
*sigh*
A militia is composed of private citizens. I am a private citizen. Regardless of any future or current intent, the freedom is extended to the citizens and is non-revocable. End of story.

"you must have a car in case granny needs to go to the doctor, therefor you have the right to own a car".
This doesn't mean that you can't own a car unless granny is sick; it means that you have the right (some granny-lovers out there might even say OBLIGATION) to own a car, just in case granny gets sick on day and needs to go to the doctor.
Common sense, in your case, obviously ain't common. Get back on the short yellow bus to canada, and stay there.
