Driving even 10 mph below the speed limit on a road that people cannot pass on is just inviting a road rage situation. Being in the "right" doesn't matter if you are injured or dead.
I owned two beetles - a 1971 and a 1974. I put 150,000 miles on the two combined. I did get 25-28 mpg, but they didn't handle well, and they were deadly in a frontal collision. And no strengthed doors to protect you in a side collision (common in american cars at that time). They also had rust problems - on one car the floor for the passenger side rusted through. The brakes were poor, and they didn't have the automatic brake adjusters most other cars had, so you had to frequently crawl under the car and adjust the brakes with a screwdriver. Heat and defrost? Haaaaaaaa!!!!
Any car that works that comes from out of country will not fly Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Hyundai, etc prove you are wrong.
I use CentOS on our servers at work, on my desktop at work, and on my home machines. It does everything I need it to do, and using one distro makes it simplier.
There was also another little automobile manufacturer called Toyota with a very small market share, they made crappy little vehicles, used to be called "piss pots". They had a Business Model called "Continuous Improvement"
Actually, it goes back further than that, with the Volkswagen Beetle.
The Japanese cars that were imported into the US back in the 60's and 70's tended to rust even faster than the US cars. This may have been due to Japanese laws that discouraged ownership of cars older than 4 or 5 years old.
SCO owns the rights to the original (AT&T) Unix code. (Maybe. Novell claims they still own the rights and the SCO was just their license collector).
There is no "Maybe" about it. SCO does not own any of the System V code - they own Unixware and Opensewer, just like SGI owns Irix. None of the copyrights on the SysV code transferred to The Santa Cruz Operation, let alone SCO/Caldera. And SCO has not provided any documentation that shows what (code) copyrights were transferred with the specificity required by law. SCO owes Novell millions of dollars for the licences they sold to Microsoft and SUN - despite their claims that those licenses do not fall under the contract with Novell (I.e., not about SysV), their filings to the Security and Exchange Commission state that they were about SysV.
According to their contract with SCO, SCO is to collect the royalties and pass them directly to Novell. Novell then gives them 5% of it.
Not all Unix licensees pay royalties - IBM and Sun have fully paid up licences. So they never give SCO a cent.
You forgot about his record as a trial lawyer - using junk science and a lack of ethics ("channeling" a dead babys thoughts, etc). The moderate electorate will be turned off by him, giving the election away. People are sick of Bush - they don't want such a deeply flawed candidate as their next president after having Bushit. Edwards is only doing so well because the spotlight is on Hillary - Obama.
People like RMS let big companies do all the work in creating something, then scream that it's bad for everyone because they can't see how it works. Then they reverse engineer the entire program and make their own software that works exactly the same way, and then say it's good for everyone because it's now 'free' and the people who put the hard work in in the first place are being deprived a reward for doing so.
So? They are also "deprived" when another company releases a competitive product.
I'll keep using Flash, thank you very much, because then if whatever has been coded fucks my computer I might actually have a legal recourse other than "I just installed what this random guy coded, how was I to know it was bad!"
Yeah. Sure. Good luck with that lawsuit. Your chance of success is probably 0.000001%.
My office neighbor is from France. He's been in the US for over 30 years. He's very liberal (but no an extreme liberal). He goes back to France to visit frequently. He says that it is very strange for him when he goes there now, because there his political views are taken as very "right wing". So "right wing" in France is far, far different than in the US.
Not collecting stamps is a hobby if you meet with your weekly "not stamp-collectors" group and discuss how not collecting stamps is the better way of being and share support stories for not-stamp-collecting and write books on how you can be a very happy not-stamp-collector and find meaning in it.
Just like atheism is a religion when you go once a week to your CASH meeting to be with other "like-minded" people and give support, yada yada yada.
Alcoholics Anonymous has weekly meetings, where you discuss not drinking is a better way of being and share support stories for not drinking, and write books on how you can be a very happy non drinker and find meaning in it.
But that doesn't make Alcoholics Anonymous a religion. And neither does it make atheism a religion.
Al Gore charges $100,000. speaking fees. (Source: Arizona State University News). It would be safe to say this is far greater than what he would have been able to charge without his association with the global warming issue. It would also be safe to say that he probably gets far more speaking engagements now, too.
His "green" investments probably have also increased in value due to his efforts.
And if you're using RHEL for a desktop system, for any reason other than being able to test things before deployment, you should have your head examined.
I use Centos 4 (RHEL 4) at home and at work on my desktop system. I've tried Gentoo and Mandriva 2007, and RHEL 4 / Centos 4 is my favorite desktop system. I use the dag repository, and with yum, I install mplayer, xine, and vlc, and I'm good to go.
2. It will probably never go to trial. SCO's goal is to get IBM to settle.
IBM's goal is probably either to get SCO to drop, get the judge to drop,
or failing that to settle for as little as possible while retaining the
right to continue to do business as usual.
IBM doesn't want to settle - they want to leave a smoking crator to be an example for the next idiot that tries to scam them.

We have CentOS 4 desktops at both home and work. Using the dag repository, it's easy to add multimedia programs.
Any long term stable Linux distro will have these problems eventually, even if it is desktop oriented.

And look at what MS did to the BoB project manager. Makes Gitmo look like a summer retreat.
And Slackware is a ripoff of SLS.

Not surprising if you've ever been to a market in chinatown. They are very much into preserving animals of all kinds in as many ways as possible.
Shouldn't that be "serving" and not "preserving"?
And Boas give live berth.
Several TV stations in the Washington, DC area do this on their over the air HD subchannels. I'd assume it's fairly common elseware.

I don't know who is the best, but I've got episodes 1-12 by Live-Evil, and the rest by C1, and they seem decent.
Yagami Light would beg to differ.
Another Death Note fan - great series.
Who would you kill if you only had to write their name in a special notebook?

They were all supposed to be like the Kidd-class which are now going to Taiwan.
THe Kidd class were built for Iran when the Shah was in power, but never delivered due to their revolution.
no American battleship has been lost on patrol (out of port) since the 1800s
Nice way to leave out Pearl Harbor. My father was on the California that day.
All he is doing is writing to maximize the number of hits. And the last bit about Apple probably increased the number of hits by quite a bit.
Turnabout is fair play. What CentOs is doing to Redhat, Redhat is doing to other open source projects.
