  16. Can't develop closed source code on IBM's Answer To Windows 7 Is Ubuntu Linux · · Score: 1

    maybe some driver work in areas where attention is needed (cough Intel GMA500... /cough).

    Except that the GMA500 driver is not open-source:

    The driver is developed by Tungsten Graphics, not by Intel, and the graphic core is not an Intel one, but is licensed from PowerVR. This has led to close source 3d accelerated drivers, instability and lack of support.

  25. Re:Windows as a Real World State? on The Real-World State of Windows Use · · Score: 1

    Well... would you consider Hell as a country? Have associated enough related names to be considered there (bsod, dll hell, ping of death, bill gates, etc). To be fair, unix should belong to that country too, is full of daemons (so much that the logo of one is a small devil), and when they get angry they dump cores... but dont lose hope, seems that that general area is getting cool enough to get penguins happy.

    Let's not forget that bit about eating from the forbidden Apple tree.
