Neither OLVM or enlightenment's miniture display is anything like the OSx approach. Basicly neither of those to had the scalling and zooming capibility of the mac to work with or I'm sure they would have.
People always look at inflation as a bad thing. There is one major import benifit of inflation:
"It keeps rich people from sitting on huge piles of cash."
I know it's always fun to think of rich people as the problem, but if they could just sit on a million dollars and it still be worth a million in 10 years it inhibits the desire to invest. Investment means jobs for the not so rich people.
With as much doom and gloom people like to spew about rich and poor I would much rather have the system we have. With 60% of all millionaires being new money, meaning they broke their way in from being non-millionaires, and the Forbes 500 being 40% new money being that 200 of the richest 500 people in the US are new money. The US has the most opertunity of anywhere.
An no I'm not millionare, I just hope to be someday, and I am not leaving the US to do so.
Yea because that would make it all better. Winning in court doesn't make the experience of sitting in a shitty cell for 24+ hours. It doesn't give you back the night of good times you were "planning" on having. It doesn't give you back the job you lost because you were in jail. It doesn't give you back the respect you lost because you were taken to jail, but hey, you "won" in court.
Hmm, a technology that helps goods and services I may need/want find me better. Yea this is horrible we must get rid of it.
Remember you get such huge piles of crapp advertisement because nobody knows what you may want so they have to send you everything. At least this way advertising may be of things you actually are interested in.
I think you are missing the other half of the economics of it. Demand wouldn't be so high if AMD could meet it with supply. Unfortanatly AMD can't supply the things fast enough.
Do you just keep cutting and pasting this message over and over every couple of years?
When Wine first started: "While I find the idea of an open source Windows facinating... is it too late? With Windows 95 coming out soon, many new applications written will only run on Windows 95 because of the new architecture, driver model, etc. Wine seems like it will be stuck in the past catering to Win3.11 applications/games while Windows goes forward. Since most people already have Win3.11 who would use this? Or will Wine emulate Windows 95? No, this is not a troll post, but a legit question."
Then later "While I find the idea of an open source Windows facinating... is it too late? With Windows XP/2000 coming out soon, many new applications written will only run on Windows XP/2000 because of the new architecture, driver model, etc. Wine seems like it will be stuck in the past catering to Windows 98/3.11 applications/games while Windows goes forward. Since most people already have Windows 98 who would use this? Or will Wine emulate Windows XP/2000? No, this is not a troll post, but a legit question."
but, many rednecks want to marry their sister and someone said they couldn't. So they are just as second class as any other group who isn't allowed to get married.
You have got to be kidding me right? In other contrys there are real civil and human rights violations going on. The government wanting to look into who people are calling is much less than things like gunning down people in China. The government forced unemployment in many EU contries. The totalitarian criminal dictators of Africa.
The problems in the US are not good, but they are nothing like the problems elsewhere that cause people to rise up for real. Most of our problems can still be fought with peacefull protests and court battle wins. It may seem like money can buy you anything you want but it actually can't. Sure it can get a long ways but it still can't make pigs fly, well not naturally at least.
Doesn't this just ring of the "...more you tighten your grip the more will slip through your fingers..." paraphrased quote. The more of a pain in the ass it is to register and keep track and pay and pay and pay will give more and more people the motivation to move to Linux or other free alternative.
I agree with your probably never response but not your reasons. OS is great at writing the code not great at providing the content. Quicken is done so well because it includeds all the legal, tax, and accounting forms one might ever want. Open source software could recreate Quicken the program and I'd even say it pretty much has already. It is just missing the content to make it usefull.
This is seen with most open source games. The engine is usually awesome, the content is usually lacking.
Slashdot Mirror
I blame the Americans!!
Those bastards.
Are you saying you don't agree with US?
But does it have a cool flying through time theme to it as you are picking roll backs?

Sweet, how many copies of Mozilla could I buy with that?
OJ was aquitted. He did lose in the public eye though as most people figured he was guilty.
Yea, like OJ Simpson.
"It's too bad, really; communism could have been a good idea if it could have addressed the problems of human greed."
Luckily we have Capitilism to handle that problem
No but they do encourage governments to atain absolut power then magicly relequish that power. Of course absolute power does something, how'd that go?

Your ignorance is excused no go do something usefull.

And your credit gets fucked in the process.

Now you updated it again
No, they all fall out the bottom when they are bad. they are all Blutooth controlled CF Card drives.
We are just making stuff up right?
Then have a set of freash CS degree "C" grade graduates do it as well. You know to get real worled results.
Everything MSFT does is to benefit the stock holders through locking the "customers" into their system.
Newsflash: Everything every publically held company does should be to benefit the stock holders.
so you must be a stock holder because obviously a customer would never defend them this way.
Sweet, 10.4 is much better than the old 8.3 that DOS used. MACs really are cooler all around.

Quite frankly, Yes they should throw them all out.
