Maybe one of these days I'll waste an hour writing the "Twitter Failure Log" and document all of his sockpuppets.
Yeah, go do that. Seriously, it just shows how lame you are if you're obsessed by a troll on a website all because he writes bad things about your favorite operating system.
You do realise you could set to ignore him, problem solved!
No one is forcing you to use it but the fact that you don't like doesn't mean it shouldn't be a standard.
This isn't about personal use it's about a standard that everyone uses internationally to share documents. You have no choice in the matter as people will send you these documents. Government will be forced to use an ISO standard as well as any companies that do business with a government.
A standard is open and implementable by everyone. This is impossible with Microsoft's current solution and we already have an ISO on documents that they could use. There's no need for another one just because Microsoft has not invented here syndrome.
You've obviously have had your head up your ass for a whole year to not know anything about Microsoft buying of ISO votes. I'm not going to bother wasting my time finding evidence for an AC, do some research next time before opening your flap.
So what I can fastly see, they can track users both with ads and the more hidden (and cleverly disguised) Analytics.
You think this is a secret? I think you're the last guy to get this and it's not even that smart as all you need is no script installed and their puny user tracking ability simply vanishes.
It's sold without a monitor. that's the number one problem. You're right in that this is really a no name product and not really worth buying in the first place.
Walmart.com now carries an updated version, the gPC2, also for $199, without a monitor. The site also sells a tiny Linux-driven laptop, the Everex CloudBook, for $399.
I think it would sell better with a monitor but, whatever..
I think it's a great idea, the US can fuck up the internet on their side as much as possible, then all us Europeans can make more money from the increase in US users to our websites.

I'm curious why you think opening doors for people should be a male only activity.
If you RTFA you'd realize that the Sony machine running Ubuntu was the most expensive and wasn't cracked.
If that were true they would have gotten the ubuntu machine as well, they didn't so it's an OS specific vector.
Me too. It's not really the suing, it's what they are charging them with and the direction they're taking which is so stupid.
The transmitter doesn't cook you, it just gets hot.

First hand accounts mean nothing. "Works for me" is the biggest BS line on Slashdot.
The GP IS a troll and so are you. Stop being a dick.
The cake was a lie you insensitive clod!

If you RTFA you'd realise they've introduced one new Linux desktop gOS v2 and a Linux laptop.. How is that "cut (100%)" ?
Don't Walmart bring products in and out all the time, I fail to see the "omg linux failure" here..

wtf? OpenGL runs on more systems then DirectX does, including windows.. You got it ass backwards..
Pre-order an Apricot DVD. They're developing the game on Ubuntu and it is going to help the Blender and Crystal Space open source projects get better.
I think you didn't RTFA this is about Linux users not Lunix users.

oh wow! IE8 the browser that isn't even released yet passes Acid 2, oh wait no way to verify..
