XPde 0.5 - A Linux Desktop for Windows Users
Nissan Dookeran writes "From the website: 'The XPde Team today announced the immediate availability of XPde 0.5.0, a complete rewrite of the XPde desktop environment...XPde aims to recreate the Windows XP desktop environment on Linux in order to allow Windows users to "feel at home" in front of a Linux computer' Full announcement of release here with screenshots here. Might be a good transitional tool for Windows users looking not wanting to give up their eye-candy interface initially. The main page also has a good PDF document regarding legal issues when developing software that emulates Windows functions. A StarOffice version of the document also available."

Why Americans hate Europeans
There are many reasons why Americans increasingly despise and distrust Europeans. First, the continued support of terrorist organizations such as Hamas and Hezbollah by the french and others. The continual "trying" of communism. May Day is almost an official EU holiday. The millions of europeans who march on May Day is just another example of the leftist brainwashing that perpetuates Europe. Europe is the origin of so much suffering in the past century that for the most part people around the world look at the europeans with a wary eye. Third worlders can't trust europeans because of the barbaric colonizations of the third world by europe. Europeans have a serious issue with jealousy of Americans. Because of the fascist, socialistic policies of many Europeans countries, the standard of living of these people is much lower than Americans, so europeans take out their frustrations on America. The continued acceptance of the nanny state philosophy continues to degrade Europe until eventually it will become 3rd world. Germany has so many structural problems and the inability to face them that they are facing serious economic issues well in the latter half of this century. France continues to be a quasi-marxist state where it's next to impossible to conduct business and do research. Look at all the french scientists that are packing their bags for greener pastures. Spain has been scared into electing proto-marxists. The United Kingdom now has realized 1984 with cameras on every street(all in the name of safety). The reason that John Kerry did a violent reversal of his bragging of foreign endorsements is because if he would ever accept an endorsement of someone like Chirac it would be the deathnail of his candiacy. These are the reasons that europeans are despised by the vast majority of Americans.
Sorry to point out what a stupid dickhead you are, but spain supported the US in the war on Iraq.
Actually I didn't need to post this because your post already shows your ignorance
I don't get it. The ragheads ARE blowing you up, even if Spain did support the US in the "war" in Iraq.
Do you guys still love the Mudslums?
