  1. I'm sorry on Linus, Transmeta, Proprietary Code and Metcalfe · · Score: 1

    What? You are either open source or you are not. So, Transmeta is going to sell a chip and closed source software. Anyone, Wintel here? Sorry. Someone please explain this to me intelligently. No cursing, slamming, or other moronic needed.

  2. Awesome on NASA Gives Linux a Chance on Portables · · Score: 1

    NASA is definitely a great open source friend out there. We appreciate those net drivers too :)

  3. Before the Internet on Filtering Internet in Public Libraries · · Score: 1

    Libraries have traditionally had a separate children's books area. Why not do the same with the internet terminals? A library has no business telling adults what they can and can not consume. They are there to provide. The value radicals need to get a real perspective on things and get out of the libraries.

  4. Hijack? on How Secure is Your Domain Registration? · · Score: 1

    Now, if someone has a domain name they purchased and registered and a "hijacker" comes along and changes the registration info and DNS, that is a pain. But, when the original owner proves who they are, the new registration information points to the problem. Or, the new information is not functional and the domain was childishly vandalized. Either way, I don't see how you could truly take someone's domain.

  5. Re:the Pet was the first computer I worked on on PET Computer Article, Circa 1978 · · Score: 1

    Same here. I was 8. I believe the computers were the 3008s with external tape drives. It was cool.

  6. Where am I? on Bills to Restrict Campus Internet Access · · Score: 1

    I thought I lived in America.

  7. Standard on First LPI Certification Exam · · Score: 1

    If the Linux community wants the industry to respect certification, they need to choose 1(one) standard training program. Sylvan Prometric has a well established and respected test delivery system.

    Except maybe those people still in the "Cold War"...

  9. Re:AOL bought Netscape, so why... on Has AOL Ruined Netscape? · · Score: 1

    Sorry, not just shipped it. Printed it on the front instead of Netscape...

  10. AOL bought Netscape, so why... on Has AOL Ruined Netscape? · · Score: 1

    did they ship an AOL 5.0 CD with IE on it?
