Allison already said Samba will go GPLv3 as soon as it's available. I would think Novell would need to stay current with Samba for their "interoperability."
Also, Linus seems to be more open to GPLv3 now, so you never know what could happen with the kernel.
It's freakin' 2007 now! Why the hell are people still trying to compare Linux to Winblows? Aren't we passed that yet? Winblows is NOT a good interface. I think it's great that Gnome doesn't make everything retardedly point-n-click(tm) to configure.
Don't tell me people don't want to configure text files. I DO! I like text files because they're searchable and concise, two attributes that can not be put on some dumb GUI.
Side note: Why does Linus have to use Metacity with Gnome? His right-click problem could be solved right away by dropping in E or fluxbox into Gnome. It's simple to do, but he might have to open the Gconf to do it... which means he won't because there isn't a Giant Pretty Blue Button to automatically do it.
Straight hardcore, girl on girl, 3-somes, BJ-only, HJ-only, foursomes, orgies, orgies with vampires (my personal fave), black porn, white porn, asian porn (another fun one), watersports (need to take a leak?), bukakke (are you thirsty?), double stuffing (only if your buddy and you are REALLY secure), gay hardcore, gay orgies (not my cup of tea), amateur, amateur upskirts (that creepy guy in the clubs with a vidcam and a raincoat on), amateur db (downblouse viewing), latex fetish, puffy fetish (these are hilarious! almost as much fun as a ball-gag, a ball-pean hammer, and a fifth of Jack)..... and I haven't even touched on the various sub-genres of poop pr0n!
Hmmm... I'm guessing you did some things seriously wrong.
I've been using Edgy since release in October, and I've never had ANY app EVER crash on me. Maybe the difference is I actually know how to install something correctly with my hardware, something most Winblows fanbois never get.
The software under "Add/Remove Software" does everything correctly for me.
Ubuntu does FINE with wireless in iBooks. Try ndiswrapper, it works fine.
Considering we use those PVR cards at work, I know that YOU are lying. They work fine out of the box for me. Did you try Edgy? Did you even INSTALL it???
I agree about the copy/paste ordeal. However, I wish I could paste by simply middle-clicking in Winblows or OSuX. OH wait.... you don't have a middle-button Apple? Oh sorry, wouldn't want to confuse your users too much.
Finally, iBooks use the keyboard for venting heat? How idiotic of an engineering design is that???
First, Ubuntu has not required root to burn since Breezy Badger. The "back to XP for my childish trailers guy" was lying on this one or doesn't know what he installed.
Second, I find it funny when people complain about Linux usability. Have you ever tried to burn a CD out of the box on Winblows? Oh wait... you need to spend $90 on Nero??? Even then, it takes 100MB of RAM and 2 hours to actually _find_ the "burn" option. For all the people that complain about options in KDE, there are about 20 times as many in Nero.
Winblows won't be desktop ready until I can right-click on an ISO and burn WITHOUT extra software!

Sigh...
Nobody mentioned Article V except you. They mentioned the FIFTH AMENDMENT in the BILL OF RIGHTS!!! Have you ever heard of the Bill of Rights?

A better question is how YOUR comment got a +5???
You should give Ted a try!

If World War II was occurring now in the 21st Century, perhaps Hitler would have said:
Nazi concentration camps had a bad name. We should now refer to them as "Jewish Opportunity Estates".
Enough already.

This is true. Ford Motor Co. is just now finishing up their XP migration. Current Vista plans are for 2010 or later.
Pr0n is all the same???? Are you serious???
Here's some of what you're missing:

Hmmm.... off to the newsgroups.....
Okay smarty-pants, drag an ISO to the CD, BURN and see what happens. You'll get a CD with an ISO file on it, not a true CD created from the ISO.

You've got to be kidding me!

Actually, Fidonet had it (a late-80s network of BBSes), so before you start talking all high and mighty with your Microshaft, try research.
