As Verant is fond of saying, and it really is true. "400,000 players can find more bugs a lot faster than 10,000"
400,000 people exploring a new expansion the size of Luclin will always discover problems that the testing missed. However in Verant's case they inexplicably missed some enormous bugs.
I honestly think they got all the bug reports they needed, and ignored them. How could you possibly miss Bard songs not working? The answer is that it wasn't missed. Verant relied on thier in-office testing instead of thier test server reports. There's no other way so many blatant bugs could have gotten through.
Huh, he makes a thoughtful well reasoned post, rather than a profanity filled tirade and you think he's trolling.
Amazing. I myself wouldn't mind using Debain/w32 at all. There are times when I have to use Windows, but I prefer to do most things under Linux. More Linux, less Windows is a good thing no matter how you get there.
hmmm, every Creationist I've ever met or read of believes in the Hocus Pocus version, absolute literal translation of the Old Testament into historical fact.
They really beleve that Noah gathered two of every land animal and road out the flood in a big boat, then repopulated the Earth . . . less than 4500 years ago.
Except all the kids they're teaching thier fundy nonsence too as if it were real science. You should read up on what creationists actually believe, it's nothing short of astonishing.
I've got a funny feeling that you're probably one of the newbies that will never understand Linux because you're reading Maximum Linux and still think that Linux works just like Windows

Well you'd be wrong about that, I think. I've been using Linux since before Red Hat 5.2, (3.something or maybe that was Slackware, it's been a while) and have installed more versions and wrestled my way through more distributions than I care to think about. I've read all the Linux magazines out there, and just happen to find Max Linux more directed toward me, an actual user, and a more interesting read. I'm not a Linux Consultant, Web Designer, Network Administrator, or Developer, I'm a user.
As to Linux working just like Windows, no I've never thought that and never got that impression from Max Linux, myself. And I've been to the sites you mention and a lot more many times. I'm a user, and I'm interested in Linux on the Desktop, that dosn't make me a newbie.
Maximum Linux was actually a pretty bad magazine. It didn't really cover anything in technical details, it was full of product reviews,
So why does it need to be techincal? I enjoyed Max Linux, at least it was interesting. Look at the TOC for Linux Journal, it's a laundry list of *dull*, great it's techy, but geez, I use Linux every day and 99% of Linux Journal is of no use to me as a user.
Four Feature articles on Consulting
--No use to me, as a Linux User
Deploying the Squid Proxy Server on Linux.
--I'll never run a Squid Proxy server
Alternatives for Dynamic Web Development Projects
--I'm a user not a developer
As the Log Scrolls By...
--I don't run Apache
Using xinetd
--I don't even know what that is
Open Source in MPEG
--A history, and somewhat interesting
Kernel Korner Running Linux with Broken Memory
--I read this article, and I still don't understnad it.
And so on and more so.
Yeah, I'll miss Max Linux. Linux Journal is great if you're into the tech, but it's a big ol' pile of Huh? if you're not.

Silly, you're thinking of FoxNews.

You think Debian is as easy to install as cygwin?!
Oh wait, it must be opposite day again.
Because Loki dosen't publish Linux version of The Sims, Half-life, or Diablo II?
Wish they did, rather than things like Might & Magic 3, and Postal.
So . . . we're descended from Sea Monkies? I always kinda suspected that.

No, he was right Xoom did have old movie on thier site that you could watch. I watched "The Green Hell". about giant killer wasps in Africa.
So this is all about warranties? That's funny, considering Sun's 'warranty' is for 90 days on the media with no warranty on the software whatsoever.
