Does it actually use KDE3 somewhere under the hood? Or did you mean you want more apps to be ported? I meant that I want more apps to be ported. I'm not really sure how kde4 differs under the hood from kde3 to be honest.
What Examples of Security Theater Have You Encountered? Data centers are notorious for security theater. The data center we host our servers at utilize multiple palm scanners to gain entry through their doors, yet the walls touching these doors look to be drywall thin enough to where an intruder could very well just kick through them. Another example is data centers that are built from old missile silos. I mean c'mon. How many companies' data is important enough to where it warrants a site that could withstand a nuclear holocaust?
I actually work for a MLS vendor that supplies a MLS solution to these aforementioned real estate broker companies. I wonder how this will affect our business. It seems to me that with the Internet-based brokerage companies out there, it would enable more expertise to enter the MLS business.
Warner Music is spending $20 million to back Lala I guess that's $20 million down the drain, as I don't see this method of music distribution becoming popular. If they keep this up maybe they'll do us all a favor and bankrupt themselves eventually.

I'm sure he'll be better off w/o his pay too. I'm sure he won't have a problem finding a new, better job. Most people that know their shit (which it sounds like he does) don't stay unemployed for too long, unless they want to be.
So what's the holdup? This small thing called trade secrets. nVidia's drivers (and I'm assuming hardware specs) contain trade secrets that they'd rather not make freely available to their competitors. The fact that no one else can create a product that can compete with them still tells me that this trend of keeping their trade secrets locked up in a proprietary format isn't going to change anytime soon. To be honest, I'm happy that nVidia even puts out Linux drivers that work with minimal hassle. Sure they may sometimes contain the occasional root exploit, but I still find it better than the alternatives currently available. I will however be interested to see how the AMD/ATI F/OSS drivers turn out. If they materialize into something worthwhile, I may very well turn from being an nVidia "fan boy".
Agreed. As a younger kid, I always shy'd away from messing w/DNS solely because I didn't want to take the plunge into BIND's complexity. The company I work for now uses djbdns for it's internal DNS. As a sysadmin who had to familiarize myself with it, I'll have to say it's such a pleasure to work with. My only nag is that it be updated such that its tools to add records support some of the newer records, like SRV. But there are web-based tools that make up for these short-comings.

...So how can they sue YouTube for damages when they're planning on giving it away free anyway? Could the damages not be lost advertising revenue?Thank you. Nice to see someone who actually understands how the Microsoft ruse works.
Another feature that will probably become vaporware. Trying to get the shareholders happy are we?

Hehe..another favorite Hawking quote (from Futurama):

Sounds like they were a shitty company anyways. I'm sure he'll be better off w/another company.
Since this would fall under civil law, I guess the Plaintiff gets to do the caning?
..how does this work in Singapore? Do offenders get publically caned?
ATI is a joke compared to nVidia's offerings.
This embedded system, this wifi card, this antenna, a >= 64 MB Compact Flash card, and Pyramid Linux should solve that problem for you.
You're getting warmer :)
Whos says the alternatives have to be anti-virus applications? ;)
Whos says the alternatives have to be anti-malware solutions?
Why pay for it, when there are plenty of free alternatives?
Is it just me, or did Ballmer sound like Putty from Seinfeld in that video?

That system + this case + this power supply + your favorite touchscreen = kickass carputer setup.
