I don't know how relevant this argument is since now it's possible to install Chrome on the local profile of a Windows computer and you can use a "portable" version of Firefox for non privileged users.
I am currently writing this at work using Chrome in a locked down environment. Internet Explorer cannot really be forced any more.
Unfortunately I agree. I used to love Android when it was at version 2.x but I have since been using an iPhone (provided by my employer). Now that I have seen all the malware floating around the Android Market, I don't think I will go back.
I'm not anti-Google. I use a lot of Google services and I'm not one of those privacy concerned people. But I do care about installed crap software on my devices whether it be a phone of a computer.

Having one filesystem across multiple drives IS possible. Hardlinks spanning multiple filesystems is not.
funwithBSD is 100% correct about hard links it is quite clear that nobody is referring to Windows.

Really? As apposed to offering nothing?
Isn't that what they mean by global warming?

And yet we still don't have a single open cross platform filesystem. Sadly ntfs and vfat are the only filesystems that will work on all modern OSs.
You are what's wrong with America.
That's funny because I've never been there before
Don't click the Princess Di link if you are at work... I just found out the hard way
They do have version numbers. Just like Windows XP, Vista and 7 all have version numbers.
They'll need the extra money to pay off Lars Ulrich
Don't worry. I'm young and I couldn't figure out how to turn the damned thing off either. I just pulled the virtual plug on it and never looked back.
I don't think I've ever read a more unfair and biased review of operating systems. I couldn't even finish reading it because it made me feel sick.
Studies show that people who use facebook either really love themselves or don't!
No it's more like, "Oi cunt! Get me a beer!"
Oracle killed my baby OpenSolaris :'(
*sniff*
Just one more reason to ditch facebook. It is addictive but I'm glad I left it months ago now. Never looked back.
Maybe Japan will try to land on it
Firefox will lose to chromium with extra baggage like this.
That article just blew my mind 0_o
Right. It doesn't make sense much like the Facebook ToS.
