When do they ditch the muddy, dull and visually abhorrant icons? Look at the dialog for Keyboard Preferences. The red/white "Help" next to the Avacado/Harvest Gold horror that is "Accessibility". The moldy folders...
It doesn't have to look "flash". Garrett LeSage did a half-decent job with the Bluecurve icons.
So my parent is modded "Troll", because it expresses an opinion, unpopular with petit-bourgoises who find their discomforts the equivalent of real human misery?
That people living under the incredible political circumstances of Israel, and facing the creeping Fascist takeover of the United States find nothing more worthy of their resonsibility for Civil Disobedience than the demise of a fscking T.V. Show?
That whirring sound is the twin-dynamo of MLK and Ghandi, spinning in their graves.
It defies satire! Guy Debord could not have had nightmares this bad! It is a demeaning insult to the people who have had to resort to protest actions for redress of real injury and oppression.
Then, tomorrow was another day
The morning found me miles away
With still a millions things to say,
Now, as twilight beams the sky above
Recalling thrills of our love
There's one thing I'm certain of,
Return, I will,
To old Brazil.
If QEMU works like VMWare or VirtualPC - I believe it does based on my PearPC experience - then you are not using D-link drivers in Linux.
Windows uses D-link's driver, and then this is bridged to the VM. Bridging requres a knowlege of the Windows IP stack, but not of the underlying phisical hardware.
To the guest machine, the VM presents a piece of well-known virtual hardware - usually a RealTek or 3Com card.
You will notice your DSL install has no "awareness" of wireless at all - SSID, channel, WEP, etc. All it sees is regular 100BT ethernet - no matter the real physical interface.
The main issue with Linux is that these facilities aren't mature enough. udev and dbus are just proof of concept interfaces and imperfect ones at that of a very elegant lower level architecture.
With the right userspace design (which I think a number of people are currently on the right track with) Linux should have no trouble completely besting Windows in areas that he assumes are somehow fundamentally better thought out..
Also, although PnP works well for the most part in W2K and above, anyone that has gotten stale entries in their device manager registry tree, and the less than straightforward and dangerous process to fix it will have bad memories that they will not soon forget.
You are so knowledeble and accurate in your assessment - why posting as A.C.?:-)
Really, the A.C. responses are mostly: "No! You're the Idiot!"

In that case, you could take a picture of your ass and break in.
Productivity! That objective unit of measure!
Bastards. Fuck that shit. I'm on-goddamn'd-line!
"This is Reddy Kilowatt, reporting a dangerous, overloaded octopus connection in sector five!"
Her songs! You must mean Elton John!
or gold bullion?
The Queen Mum is dead, you insensitive clod!
A great step up.

Why yousa Foe me? :-)
I am Napoleon! Just ask Josephine, my sock-puppet!

Yeah. That much is clear. Only it's everyone thrown to the lions.

The milk rushed out of my nostrils, far too quickly!
Heh heh heh... He said "Dump".
Yeah! The mass of Avogadro's dumps!

Don't take it so hard. A.C.'s don't have foes!
Right-O! I was using "impossible" in a loose sense, not as a challenge to the entire realm of possibility!

The NTFS.sys vcan be loaded as a userspace filesystem, and Aetheros/Broadcom cards have Windows NDIS drvers that have linux wrappers/stubs.
Dvorak is still talking through his hat.
He doesn't know the first thing about what he's saying!
Linux as a task under Windows exists!

In either instance, the "guest" OS doesn't get a "magic ride" on the hosts's drivers.
He takes an out-of-context comment, and combines it with half-knowlege of the subject and a dollop of wishful thinking.
Whoops! I think I just defined "Visionary"!
You kids with your funny keybörds...
It's Norse! and funny, too!
The ESDI looked just like MFM - they were just usually larger capacity. "Wow! 700 MB!". CDC made the "Wren" series - before Seagate took 'em.
Looking for someone to LOVE my Indigo R4000 Elan w/ DAT. I want a good home for it - not someone who keeps it in the garage, like me.
