    I was naturally curious about ... why the netbios updates seemed so slow.

    That's an easy one. It's because NetBIOS fucking sucks.

    I thought that's what Linus does when a kernel comes out?

    404 File Not Found

    More a statement on HTML abilities, rather than Linux stability.

    Your average user of a Windows machine will use Outlook, IE, Word, Excel, and Powerpoint.

    So MS is right, it is user error!

    You guys cash my check?

    I'd love to. Just write "pay to the order of sharkey" on the back, and sign it. Send it over and I'll handle the rest.

    It had Brendan Fraser doing a reenactment of the Iceman getting trapped.

    Does anyone know of any common Windows software that turns off XP's firewall?

    Give Win32 Blaster a try. It shuts down the firewall, and more. Or so I've been led to believe.

    In some cases even THAT doesn't mean you'll see smart comments

    Right. You still see the "editor's" comments in the article itself.

    I was waiting for a 'Road Warrior' to return (I consult on Friday afternoons only) so I could update his laptop.

    Unfortunately for you, the Toe-Cutter does his thing 7 days a week. Your client may not return.

    Everyone knows slashdot users went downhill after they hit 3000...

    Slashdot users ALWAYS go downhill. It's the inevitable result of gravity combined with our round shape.

    I believe that vaporware should use imaginary version numbers

    Or high school mascots from cartoons as code names. Like Longhorn.

    I'm not sure how "The SCO Group helps millions of customers in more than 82 countries to grow their businesses everyday" when it seems all they do is tax them on free software.

    Sounds like Microsoft's "Software for the Agile Business", when all it seems to do is get bigger and more resource hungry.

    You'd better watch it. They have priests who are willing and able to rip your heart out so you can watch it burn as you're sacrificed, or so I've been led to believe.

    Democracy could run under the Slashdot system. Let each of the candidates post a response to the news item "Presidential Election 2004".
