Microsoft Discontinues Windows 3.x
rugatero writes "The BBC reports that, as of last Saturday, Microsoft is no longer issuing licenses for the 18-year-old Windows 3.x. Many here may well be surprised to learn that anyone still has use for the antiquated software, but it seems to have found a home in a number of embedded systems — including cash registers and the in-flight entertainment systems on some long-haul passenger jets (Virgin and Qantas are cited). Considering Linux's credentials as an embedded OS, this news could very well indicate the possibility of more migrations in the pipeline."
Slashdot, where's the Obama story?
contami8ate3 while lubrication. You
In your face. It looks like your criminal regime has at last been consigned to history and now change is a coming.
Those of you who spoke out for the criminal wars in the middle east listen up, at last the ring leaders and cheer leaders of the atrocities will face UN backed war crimes trials and finally pay for their crimes.
At last America will enjoy a fully nationalised health service helping millions of Americas poorest citizens and migrants to the health care they deserve.
Now the USA can begin to rebuild it's burned bridges with the rest of the world, take it's place with pride at the UN and act as a responsible world citizen for the first time.
The Land Of The Free is a spacious land well endowed with resources, our drive to increase immigration from near and far will build new American communities where none have existed before, new jobs, new cultures, a new energy. With free healthcare and super charged social security America will become the immigrants destination of choice.
No more aggression. America will immediately begin dismantling its vast armament of hate and decimate military spending. We will pull out of all foreign aggression and close our many outposts across the world with our new understanding of how their presence only inflames and ignites anti American thought.
A secular society. Religion has no place in our government, it has no place in our schools and it has no place in our children. We will follow the example of our brother states across the globe and implement an outright ban on religious activities of any sort so that our children can at last grow up truly free.
A fair society. The rich can now shoulder their burden of responsibility to those less well off with pride and honour as they increase dramatically the amount the give back to society.
Yes my brothers, change has come and you republicans are gonna burn in hell for the last 8 years, burn in hell.
