    Isn't that as redundant as "Hot Water Heater"?

    Whenever I read that an Open Source package has been "released", I think, "Wasn't it already Free?"

  4. when will we have FC4? by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 5, Funny

    could it be next week because I'm thinking these guys are a bit too slow. I'd like them to move the pace up a bit that way I really don't have time to get used to their distro before the next comes out.

    Windows 2000 Service Pack 3 With 60 Hotfixes Installed.

    You need service pack 4, that's your problem.

    I don't believe that either "stabler" or "securer" are words.

    Hmm, in my case they're using me to test both. Shame bugzilla reports on FC get ignored. As for quality control, Fedora seems to bypass the concept - FC2 sucks worse than any distro I've ever used, and I've been running everything on RH since the 4.2 days. If FC3 doesn't improve things I'll ... bitch some more on Slashdot.

    when most of the time more or less of all [linux distributions|women] look the same,if they are all [customized|dressed|undressed] the same. And here on Slashdot I'm sure everyone already know what [things|insert favourite part of anatomy here] look like in almost all the different [window managers|bikinis|lingerie|nothing].

    Yeah, no idea why people like looking at pictures.

    That wasn't a bug, that was a virus prevention strategy. :)
