Apple does not differnt from microsoft, only they have less power.
They have repeatedly shown this, i don't know why you can't see it.
"Apple differs from Microsoft in one important way: they just want to make cool stuf and a few bucks at it"
I'm sorry but that is bullshit. When it comes to companies like that, money is the start and the end of everything they do.
"They are not out to steal products from other companies, annex the internet, or publically humiliate and ruthlessly crush "insubordinate" software companies like they have done to Netscape, Citrix, Spyglass and Stak."
Wait for them to get back into the power ring, we shall see how benevolent apple really is. Another Microsoft, and we have always known it to.
Bah, BSD's arnt really any harder then Slackware. A bit differnt, so you might get a little confused for a wee bit, but with a little help from docs and mabye some internet places you get the hang of it real quick.
Try OpenBSD, its got the best security in the business. Thats what i use =P
As some person pointed out to be once, KDE IS NOT A WINDOW MANAGER. kwm is a window manager, if you actually knew anything about software you would have noticed that its easily possible and very effecitive to replace kwm with WindowMaker and still have the complete (in fact improved) KDE thing going on.
doesnt make sense, if he has ported apps to linux then that means billy means he has to support a platform that is not his own... and make his platform less of a requirement.
Linus is not wrong here.
Porting apps TO a os is not going to draw people AWAY from it.
The trick is to idendify yourself as a "Old school" (do not mistake this with "01d 5k3w1").
Sometimes it works... most of the time they think you are even more elite =(
bah! i gotta admit, i don't want to change the word, its like not calling americans americans because most people think of fat buys with beer watching football.
I have used all those products.. i hated Applix... StarOffice is pretty good IMO... i just hate that Win32 clone interface...
WordPerfect8 is the shit if you ask me... the free edition needs goddam fonts though. mabye i should stop being a tight wallet and buy it? =) mabye when i get a job =)
oh yeah my point why use MsOffice when there is WP8?
Slashdot Mirror
Whoops, that previous post was mine =P
No more crack for me -- i've had enough =(
Cowards (anonymous or otherwise) don't contribute to society becasue they are scared of the possible repercusions.
Something is wrong, oh well, thats just the way it is. whatever. that kind of attitude lead to the dark ages.

I hear that, who cares about MSIE5.
I can wait for Mozila.
And i'll bet most people who love there freedom can to.
Yipee, a MSIE troll.
I'm sorry here pal, but in todays world of freedom of operating system choice, a platform locked browser (however good) isnt what we need.
Smarten up or shut up.
Just takes a bit of learning. I learned OpenBSD perfectly from Linux in about two days (with some help from EFnet#OpenBSD).
If its a pain in the ass maybe you should concidering reading some of the documentation.

Anyway, WindowMaker is not dated, it as good gnome support, KDE suppost and ol(v)wm support.
Those 1 inch bars you are refering to are resizable.
