Ok, maybe some folks could take that type of ruffin and it wouldn't hurt none, but when rock was chained into the ambulance and got ran over by hogans tractor trailer rig... now that son, is gettin clowned on.
My company would have to do a massive hardware upgrade to run any additional software because we can barely run the applications we have without locking up every 5 minutes.
I check my email while I'm logged onto my box through webmin over SSL, which is WAY cooler than having to put up with the lack of filtering options, and other limitations of webmail. I also restrict the ips that connect to webmin, activate the service through an email trigger, and deactivate it thru the interface when I'm done. I don't have anything to hide. I just hate fscking webmail.
Unfortunately their certification program is (or was, I decided against it a while back), as undesirable as microsoft's. When I looked into it, you had to pay too much money (kind of like the costs on expensive ergonomic devices -like they expect companies pay it instead of individuals), you had to go out of town just to attend the courses, and when its all said and done you have a redhat specific certification that may not even be neccessary if an employer is looking for someone with just general *nix qualifications. This may have all changed, but that is at least the way it was before I decided to take the cheap route and get LPI certified without taking courses and stuff I don't need anyway. I never liked the idea of getting my education or certs from a corporation like that to begin with. Microsoft has certainly shown how they can screw people over with that, and it must be a conflict of interest. Apart from that, I have heard superb things about redhat as a company, and I learned on it myself before I switched to another distro, which is why I recommend it to newbies. You are right about the GPL, regardless of wether it has been tested in court, it is surely a good safeguard against that. Leave it to slashdot to try and spread paranoia and start up rants from all the *I've been victimized by microsoft* weenies, and holier than thou linux converts. Can we get a Jon Katz article please? His are a lot funnier.
Just give them 50% profits off of mozilla. Write them a check each month for $0.00, and comment field saying for sexual favors.
They could also get a discount on all mozilla downloads!
Corel Linux had an option to do partitioning automatically or manually, and if you chose automatic it would make like a swap partition, and put the rest all under one ext2 partition (yeah I know why thats not advisable, but my point is the functionality of it). I'm not sure about the other distributions, and yeah I know Corel Linux was real buddy, but I thought that was one of the best parts about the installer, and something other distros could learn from. My favorite (debian) included. On the other hand, as a coder I know it is a lot easier to make suggestions than to implement them, and sometimes other things take priority. Personally, I had an easy time installing both windows and Linux. The difference was I spent more time recovering windows because the software I needed to run hosed it all the time, where as with debian I only reinstalled because I hosed it myself. The difference now is I learned from my mistakes, and windows still has some huge issues, at least for my uses.
I've recieved spams where my username matched someone elses and the spam generator will just try all kinds of domains with the username that they have on file... etc. etc. They have all kinds of tricks. Out of frustration, I set up a filter only allowing users who are on my contact list to send me mail. Mails without from addresses are dropped, mails not addressed to me (except if they match mailing lists) are dropped. The mails that aren't dropped are sent an autoreply, which has flood protection to prevent someone else from being flooded by my autoresponder when I am sent a slew of mails with forged from headers. I also made a cron daily script to use pwgen to create a password which is put in the autoresponder email which requires they put it in the subject in order to respond so I can still get mail from people who are not in my contact list, if they take time to put in a password. Even then they can't send me more than 3 emails per day like that or anything over a meg in size if they don't know me. The funny thing is after all the time I spent working on my spam filter some mortgage company spam slipped through anyway because my script that extracts the actual from address from the email did not expect someone to send me an email with only lessthan and greaterthan symbols in the from line. Now I have to revise it once again. Hopefully this is the last time I get a spam, but I'm not going to say it this time because I don't want to jinx myself. Other than that one email though so far I have got zero spams so far this year (except from my mom, who is about to get blocked if she doesn't stop forwarding me her crap!)
Ingredients: 1 can of squeezable grape jelly 1 vending machine size bag of doritos per serving 1 Loaf of wonder bread 1 bottle of cayenne pepper
Sprinkle cayenne pepper on the bread slices to desired toxicity before lightly toasting them. Put a layer of doritoes down on one side of the bread, and then squeeze jelly on it to act like sort of a mortar, so that more doritoes will stick to the top of it. Mash down another slice of bread on top of it using enough force to make it resemble a sandwich, but not hard enough to splatter the jelly in a 360 degree radius. Caution: Prepare beverages before serving.

I don't mean to offend anyone, this is all IMHO. I'm using netscape 4.77-2 until I can visit all the sites I need (mapquest, and so on) in a web browser that runs in a framebuffer like zen or something. Everything else is trying to be like friggin emacs and add in a world of crap, or treat you like clippy and give you all this overly user friendly BS. It sucks enough to have to use X windows/netscape (and drain all kinds of resources, and run auto nice daemon to cope with it going crazy) just to have a descent browser that supports all these sites with javascript etc. I checked out mozilla and opera both, and guess friggin what? I know this comes as a crazy shock, but all I need is a full screen browser window, not fifty buttons and a logo and all that crap. KDE and gnome browsers may not be as bad, but they still require Xwindows on top of KDE or Gnome (I use neither), and blah blah blah. Anyway.. I'm going to go listen to slayer and cool off. I'm not really mad, but I just think its pretty obvious that ALL of the graphical web browsers suck in some huge way or another. If they just sucked a little it would be okay but I'm talking big deep throat sucking. I'm going to go do something constructive now. Thank you.

Great story. I was like on the edge of my seat. I had planned to go to sleep early, but it looks like this is a big news day!

For anyone who can't find Racing Destruction Set, try playing rock & roll racing for nintendo. Its a pretty cool ripoff.
Until I required a password in the subject of mail for anyone not in my contact list. I haven't recieved a single spam mail in one year.
Id use a backlit LCD and tint my windows.

We are experiencing unusually high call volumes.
Got to do away with those since the MIB can see.
So with my blinkenlights all taped up, and my fan silent.. I just need a way to find out if my systems are still running.
