    Good products sell themselves without the need for special clubs and what not. I am using Mandrake but as soon as they start charging for new releases, I will switch to MS distro or something else.

    I'd rather have the money stay in the US and fund US jobs than going down to drain (and by drain I mean France).

    How dare they release a product to premium customers first instead of everyone.

    Oh, this is Mandrake and not Microsoft. Sorry, forget about it.

    Funny how a French product is good enough to use, but not good enough to pay for. You're messed up Mr. Anonymous dude.

    For the record, I happen to think France didn't want a war because they were in bed with Iraqi officials. I think Bush wanted a war because he and his cronies wanted back in bed with Iraqi officials... (that's Donny (Beady Eye) Rumsfeld shaking Sadam's hand). Or more specifically, they wanted their palms greased with Iriqui oil. I'm not sad that Saddam's gone, in fact I am rather pleased that butchers like him and his sons are dead/soon to be dead. I just don't like Bush lying about why he went in... nor do I like the ineptitude with which they did it. Anyways... back to apoliticial Linux...

    If someone makes a good product that you like to use, pay them for it... at least occasionally. American 'free market' ideology? It doesn't mean take something for free and not pay them because you don't like them. It means if you don't like them and don't want to give them money, don't use their product. It means if you use something, pay for it. It also means if you use their product without paying them, generally you're a thief. In this particular case, you are just an asshole.

    The rpms would be on your system, if you would get off your ass and make them, instead of whining on Slashdot.
