  1. Re:Exposed -- I still didn't care for it. on The Business of Anime · · Score: 1

    It would be nice if you had a bloe with those critical analysis.

    No, really, I am just curious.

    I like anime the same way I like movies like Batman and the Lord of the Rings, except I can re-watch them more times before I get tired of them... don't know where lies the difference.
    Perhaps my life is just bad enough thay I like to fantacize with anime.

  7. Re:I would be happy with a OS Free system on The Future of Linux on Laptops · · Score: 1

    Yes, but the reason for linux laptops is

    1. You know now that hardware works under linux
    2. They can't sell machines without an OS because of some agreements, so its a must that they do, and it doesn't matter much which flavor of linux it runs since all it does is proving that it does run.
    Some more experienced linux user can then reinstall other system, unless besides the linux installed it came with some software by HP (in this case) that differenciate it from any other vanilla distro. I don't know if this is the case though.

    They did exactly the same thing KDE, GNOME and OS X developers went on to do aftrwards.


    For god's sake, it's not. Nobody is forcing gnome users to use epiphany, or kde users to use their own web browser.

    I am not wasting my time with this anymore.
  9. Re:Allow users to uninstall and reinstall as neede on IE7 Will Have Tabbed Browsing · · Score: 1

    Not because it was better (though that is arguable) but because being closed only MS could take any advantage of that.
    And there being a Browser already has an unfair advantadge (the browser, make notice I am talking about the browser, not about an html rendering engine) nobody else could use.

    At the time everyone was confused because nobody understood what MS had done. embedding a browser is different from embeddin an html rendering engine.

    It's not bad when MS does it.
    What was bad is what MS did.

  14. Re:Allow users to uninstall and reinstall as neede on IE7 Will Have Tabbed Browsing · · Score: 1

    The difference was in the openess of it all.

    MS IE had an advantage over other browsers at that time.

    The fact that everyone else does it is just because reusability, in general, is a good idea. Not the particular case of html rendering.
