You'll clearly never be the CEO of a company of any size.
You could go with Microsoft Office and when you need a bug fixed or whatever, you could report it to them. They would then send you an automated response that politely tells you to "Fuck Off," because they don't care.
They already have your money.
At least with OSS stuff, you have a fighting chance, you aren't screwed from the beginning.
Wake up! Most american cars are shit -- ugly, poorly built, made out of low grande components with 60's engine technology. C'mon, how the heck do you explain a 6 liter V8 with 300HP when in Europe they get more than that out of a 2 or 3L inline-four. I'll tell you why -- old technology! Cast iron blocks when everybody else is doing aluminum, pushrods and OHC when everybody else is doing variable timing sohcs, big old heavy iron crossplane cranks (lazy engines, don't rev much and rev slowly, c'mon this is the 21st century, that "naturally balanced" argument is bullshit, ever heard of balancer shafts?) versus flat plane cranks and what have you.
LOL! Why is that the poor "old technology" in the CTS-V and the Corvette ZR-1 flatout DESTROYS the best from any other company in the world... for far less money. And I'm not the only one say it, have you seen the reviewers from folks like Jeremy Clarkston (who love ripping on US tech)?
Because the technology has been perfected over time.
You're a fucking moron, why do you even use the Interweb?
The fact of the matter is: American made automobiles implement a wider range of technologies and vehicle types than most foreign companies. And they still manage similar quality rankings.
Customizing Ubuntu from a non technical user's standpoint is similar to customizing a mac. It's easy to do.
The difference is *technical* users have way more room to customize a Linux machine. But again, for typically nontechnical folks like seniors it doesn't matter because they'll never attempting anything advanced.

That's it, you've forced my hand!
I invoke Moore's Law!

I'm sure these new features are well defined in the contract you sign with A&T.

And that's the point.
So, did you miss the whole part about boycotts and the Martin Luther King protests?
Do you think the bus companies just said one day "Oh boy, you know those angry colored people are right!"
No, they got hit in the pocket book due to boycotts and changed their policies because of it.
Shazbot!
Nobody got fired for going with Redhat?
Yeah, because browsing the web is SOOO different on Firefox.
True, however wikipedia has a lot more oversight.
The magazine article is finalized when its published. Wikipedia can be changed at any time.
Wikipedia is more like a discussion forum than a traditional encylopedia... which is what makes it more useful and typically more current and topical.
Yeah, it's a great business model.
Step 1) Sell product at more than it costs to make
Step 2) ????
Step 3) Profit!
Nintendo is run by amazing businessmen. :)
PC load letter?? Allahu Akbar!
yeah, because there are a ton of good printing options in Iran.
I can see it now:
Now introducting Al-Dirka Hassan's Muhamdojet 1000! It can print 5 millihectares with a single cartridge of sheeps blood!
It is compatible with any type of papyrus or parchment!
The cell can be used for a variety of graphics purposes.
One common use is transforming a skeleton and associated vertex attributes.
It's good at doing anything where there's a streaming data, i.e. like the aforementioned vertex attributes as skeleton influences weights.
Yet you still find time to post on ol' Slashdot.
You're right, that is a bad analogy.
I couldn't agree more.
I, for one, love his advertising and hope people stop donating to his site.
That way he'll add more glorius advertising for people, such as myself, to enjoy.

So you name a couple of random defects like GM and Chrysler are the only companies with problems like this?
First hit on google for Toyota recalls: http://www.motortrend.com/cars/2007/toyota/sequoia/recalls/index.html
Oh and there are tons of those.
The fact of the matter is: American made automobiles implement a wider range of technologies and vehicle types than most foreign companies. And they still manage similar quality rankings.
I agree.
Hey retard, your quality argument hasn't been true for a long, long time.
I'm curious to know what settings you'd need to change on Ubuntu out of the box, that you don't with a Mac?
Wrong again, it's clearly stated as "A LONG, LONG TIME AGO."
Customizing Ubuntu from a non technical user's standpoint is similar to customizing a mac. It's easy to do.

Linux users of course.
