Asking around, no one so far has even heard of this game. I watched the intro video, looks cool.
Too bad it's already over; I would say next time, look into advertising.
'Guys' as you put it may mean companies, since both Microsoft and Apple are companies. If that is what you mean then the answer is, Linux is not a company and therefore it's not really an apples to apples comparison.
I like Windows. I like lots of products all over the place. I simply don't like the release terms and the fees and legal threats and the "you don't like it? well that's kind of too bad" attitude many consumers will encounter.
I have the strangely old fashioned view that if I pay someone for something, I should be treated better for it than before I was paying them. In many instances with Microsoft or Apple, the customer may experience restrictions which can be quite insulting and frustrating.
I agree. Microsoft is worse than Apple in many ways. Both are significantly worse than many others. I happen to not be a fan of either and what either stand for as I interpret it.

I would not venture to prove apple was worse than many other wasteful corporate money machines (though I believe in many ways it is). I would argue that it is just as bad as several.
Keep it up Microsoft. You and Apple are showing more and more the tight grips you squeeze on the consumers you serve. Betraying even your own honor system to sell more. Every giant public outrageous greed-driven corporate-minded move you make drives more and more users away from the licenses and ideals that give you the power to do so.
That means more and more users will use Ubuntu. Which means lots of them will move on to Fedora and the like. Which means some of them will continue on and eventually a few will actually end up being real linux and unix users and developers.
So thanks for the help and enjoy your success! Just remember what happens when the grip gets too tight and too monopolistic - we break your fingers.
There's already flash for 64-bit systems. It's called use-32-bit-browser-with-flash. Now that the 64-bit will be released, milliseconds of waiting on 5% of the sites I visit will be shaved off by me using the 64-bit version instead of the 32-bit.
Of course by the time those milliseconds add up to the amount of time it took to download it in the first place, we will be living in a time much like Disney's Tron except mixed with Dark City.
Thanks for all your work Adobe! You've put so much time into shaving mere milliseconds from the bottom end of my internet usage!
PS can you add some features to Adobe Reader? I have some files I need correlated and also I was thinking you should add some anti-spyware features. Wait is that cyclic? Also, if you don't add even more features to Adobe Reader (just make it an OS already please), I will let out the truth. The sad messed up truth about how you have been tricking the american public. You know. Yes I'm talking about Photoshop and Dreamweaver. Guess what world? They are exactly the same as they were 8 or so years ago! Suprise, bitches! They just move the features around to confuse you and charge you again.

I looked up kernel package and here is the screenshot! http://www.biologie.uni-hamburg.de/b-online/library/maize/www.ag.iastate.edu/departments/agronomy/images/corn/fig49.gif
Yet another example of the grip proprietary corporations will continue to impose on their users.
If the television show Cheaters is ok, then surely this should be ok.

exactly, it's not needed. If you go out of your way to alias a command differently, that's your fault.
ls > filename is the same as ls -1 > filename, unless you go out of your way to change it to mean something else.
I'm not concerned about non modern systems. punch card holes are a mystery to me.
Saying something is waste is not an insult from me. I'm interested in efficiency for this case.

A program had a bug in it? G T F O Who cares? Wake me up when it rm -rf c:\ 's Until then I'll still recommend it to windows lusers Whoops typo
ls -1 > filename is waste. ls > filename is exactly the same in every way, except shorter to type.
