Shouldn't an operating system[1] remove all applications before installation?
No, why should it? I get the feeling Microsoft always got this wrong by not giving users the choice whether they wanted to actually keep their applications.
Sure it can, if only they programmed iTunes to support both, or just made Quicktime cross-platform (seriously, there's no reason why they'd suddenly leave out Windows users).
I'd just like to know how well it will actually work with Linux, especially in regards to it mostly having to control two screens at once, one of which mostly intended for navigation.
This device actually looks like something I'd want due to its compactness. The Windows thing is a small drawback, though.
ABN AMRO in the Netherlands does it fairly good. They give you a device when you sign up for online banking, and you use the device to insert your bank card, enter a code given by the website, and enter the response code the device gives you. This gives you several stages of security: your card number, your actual bank card, your PIN, and the output code the device gives you.
They're math equations, which would make Windows a 0-bit wrapper around a 0-bit implementation of a 0-bit extension for a 0-bit patch to an 0-bit operating system, originally coded for a 0-bit microprocessor, written by a 0-bit company, that can't stand 0 bits of competition.
The problem is that we have a limit to how many things we can think about at a time, and with a tool like Wave several more of these "threads" might be used up on Wave rather than remembering "that important thing".
I mean, I've seen Google Toolbar, OpenOffice, and other bits of software installed this way, but never did I see a checkbox in some installer for "Install virus?"
I have. MSN Plus, for example, asks you to install adware. Irfaview also suggests to install the Google Toolbar for you, even though Irfanview really has nothing to do with Google.
We are still nowhere near finished with Theora, and the new features that are nearing completion just take it closer to the efforts of projects like Theora. h.264 is the industry standard, it is being used everywhere from cell phones and video conferencing to feature and television distribution and consumer content. Do yourselves a favor, contribute to Theora if you can as there are many areas where it can be improved.
Seriously, your entire paragraph could be flipped around like this.
to actually say what the hell the thing is in the summary without assuming everyone "just knows"?
There's been lots of news on Theora. At this point, it wouldn't make much sense explaining yet again what it is. Kind of like how the real news works, you know?

People only care about the major distro's, as you can see.

And let's not forget the Linux Game Tome!
Their status page looks pretty close.
Again?
That does sound like a good idea, but will cost a lot more on the company's side.
For you car enthusiasts, it's like adding additional locks to the car doors -- it doesn't help if the windows (haha) are already broken.
What if one of the locks wasn't actually on the car, but did require unlocking to use the car?

What about SP1?

Acrobat Reader? Stop living in the past!
Compatibility with new or badly supported hardware isn't a risk they would recommend their friends and families take, either.
Isn't that similar to jailbreaking? Except with stones rather than files?

Yeah, because h.264 definitely doesn't sound nerdier.

Um, so where is the Theora 1.1 comparison on that page, exactly? I only see 1.0...

Bah, Linux doesn't need marketing.
7680 x 3200 - that ought to increase your field of view just a tad!
Yeah, to the point where most people get sick just looking at any kind of movement on the screen.
Just all of it.
For some reason I read Score 3: Furry for a moment there.
