Eh, it's just the first time I've stayed up late enough to squeeze in a first post, so I wanted to come up with something at least vaugly clever enough to make it worth posting, but not take so long that I miss the opportunity.
What we really need is a ten day waiting period and a background check before you can buy a congressman.

And instead you got hit with a "redundant" and a "troll". Worth staying up?
Bad analogies are like waxing a monkey with a rainbow.
*off of, not of off. that makes no sense.
LOL, well, it's not the REASON I stayed up, but you do have a point. Although, I think those two mods would be more appropriate if they were switched. I don't see how the very first post can be all that redundant, and I REALLY don't see how being honest about my motives was trolling, but whatever.
No hard feelings, but I would be amused to hear the moderator's motives, out of simple curiosity.

neither does 'off of'. the correct way to say it is 'based on'.

Is there an OSS equivalent to Adobe Pagemaker? I was hoping there is one so that I wouldn't have to deal with the bloat of InDesign (or its whizbang interface), just for one steenkin document.

Hell, they might even post them to this thread and undo the modding! That would really rock, huh?
Is there any Linux OS that is less than 10 Mb ,and can be run from CD without installing?
,i dont want knoppix.It may be good, but I simply cant download 700 MB image file on dialup.
No
So any options?
Oh yeah iam a windows user.wanting to try linux.or perhaps a new OS.
Ok, this "I, for one" crap is starting to piss me off. Just say, "I do not quite like the interface..." See? It's easy, you save words, and you don't hint pretentiously that you may be speaking for dozens of other people instead of just yourself.
Worst meme ever.
Comment of the year
Slightly OT, but this is as good a place as any...
Can anybody who runs Linux on their Mac notebook tell me how the power consumption/management is? Does it last longer than OSX? Less? How much?
Thanks for the feedback!
