    up to 2004? what are you talking about. I had Server running with linux kernel long before that.

    Linux didn't became "cool" just yesterday. It was useful a long time ago. Just the Managers didn't have any cool pie graphics yet, so they didn't know about it. Now there are enough MBA guys with redhat/suse/etc so they can spill out pie graphics and super leaflets in millions, so all the managers now know about it.

    throw in xBSD and you can have the same apps running too.

    More Kudos to the app developers!

  7. so all its all thanks to the kernel? on Linus's Baby Comes of Age · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I doubt that, a kernel allone doesn't make a server. I'd say its thanks to apache group (apache, tomcat, ...), php, samba and all the other services that you can provide and that can replace properitary services.
    Same for the desktop. It's thanks to KDE/Gnome that it gets more and more accepted on the desktop. The kernel is just one small part ...
    But well, manager & business journalist. Lets keep it simple and add a pie graphic!

  8. Re:alternatives on Mulberry Creators File for Bankruptcy · · Score: 1

    Cyberduck is an extremly polished Open Source FTP client for Mac. Plus it does SFTP/SCP and can do SSL on FTP data and/or control channel.

  9. *sigh* on Mulberry Creators File for Bankruptcy · · Score: 1

    what sad news.

    Mulberry was and perhaps still is the best IMAP client out there. The only one left where you can have a seperate window for all your folders with email list/content and a seprate window for your folder tree.

    Downside always was and is the horrible interface.

    I would love to see this one in Thunderbird. Very sad that the source can't be released. Really really very sad.

    Kalamari != Katamari

    katmari is lump, mass, clod or cluster ... a Kalamari is not.

    But I can understand the low level humor about this ...

    actually in the japanese version that DJ was kind a fun ... for the first 10 rounds ... then you got bored and turned him off :)

  12. Great Game on Review: Burnout - Revenge · · Score: 1

    I played it (xbox version) last week when I was over at a friends. Direct compared to Burnout 3 it has a lot of plus and almost no minus. You don't crash with you bump into traffic on your side, they made the crash courses so much better and more fun. The courses have shortcuts and its fund to find them and use them. They have some new parts, like the "crash cars on your side and get the money limit before the time runs out and the time goes down if you don't crash any car".
    I love it and I can't wait until it comes out for japanese PS2 ...

    @Safari: In my Safari (latest from Tiger) the order dots are half out of the grey from the right side "parts". But it looks fine on Firefox Beta.

  14. Re:Erm.... Hang about.... on Windows Vista To Come In 7 Flavors · · Score: 1

    And thats why it is bad. The User has no idea what he should use. Thats why Linux will never never ever ever be a common Desktop OS. It's not like "winkey+prnt screen" to get the Distribution. Thats hidden somewhere in /etc (if you are lucky). Just imagine Mom Average calling a Helpcenter and asking for help.

    I still think there should be two Versions. One optimized for Server and one for Desktop. Like OS X does. Simple and easy.

  15. Re:This is going to confuse the hell out of people on Windows Vista To Come In 7 Flavors · · Score: 1

    But they all give you the same value. Actually you can break it down into three groups:
    Server concentrated: eg RedHat Enterprise
    both sides: eg Debian, Susi^e
    desktop: linspire, ubuntu

    But you can always use a ubuntu as a server and an RHE as a desktop os.

    So there are no connections at all.

    Nice backdoge Anonymous Seppnschaedl!

  18. Should be forbidden to be sold on Blu-Ray To Punish Users for Modifying Hardware · · Score: 1

    In my opinion they should be not be able to sell them, only put them out for rent. Because if they forbid this way, selling is a hoax. Thats like you buy a car and they say "if you change anything, we will stop it from working". Cool ...

    Well, I don't own a HDTV anyway and it will be a damn long time until I might get one (not until my old TV really dies), so 100% no need to get blue-shit or hd-shit ...

    You have to think Manager/Bar-Chart Guy Talk.

    Manager A: "Oh I made this 114MB PowerPoint Presentation, I will mail it to all in Marketing"

    cool, hu. :) And then 20 people get a 114MB + 1/3 size mail and 19 are replying "I read it" and never did and 1 opens it, and never reads it and replys "I read it".

  20. older versions Better on Microsoft Lashes out at Massachusetts IT Decision · · Score: 1

    I did my final exams in 1999 and I purly used Word (was it 5.0?) and I wrote papers from 40 pages up to 250 pages with a lots of embedded graphics, indexes, etc.

    I had not a single problem. Nothing, absolutly nothing. Can it be, that Word got worse in the last years?

  21. Re:Results are in early on Microsoft Lashes out at Massachusetts IT Decision · · Score: 2, Informative

    It doesn't need an email client, because Mac OS X itself comes with an full email client.

    Pages is a very nice write program for more the home user, or somebody who writes a lot with templates etc.

    Keynote is really great and gives PowerPoint kick in the ass. And PP is the most used program in my company. The Mac Users are prefering Keynote over PP ...

    But I really miss a spreadsheet app. Thats what I use most the time. and I really dislike Excel, cause it doesn't do what I want ... Reading in various formated CSV files (different delimiters, different encodings) or writing them.

  22. Played the demo - huge disappointment on Review: Dungeon Siege II · · Score: 1

    I downloaded the Demo and played it, because I loved DS. But DS II started with such a stupid voice acting, that was embarressing and like in an Army Training Camp. My first thought was, "oh my god the `Americanized` the Game".
    It was not really a start that looked interesting. I doubt I will buy that game (thought it would even run on my stone old Laptop)

  23. So ... what? on HighDef Content to Require New Monitors · · Score: 1

    It will be like usual. someone will find a hack to rip the movie from the new Blueray/HD DVDs with stripping out any HDVADSFASF DRM and release it as clean DVDs/Blueray/HD DVD images or DivX.

    And who will then need a new monitor? Nobody.

    Plus, this is just for your PC, I mean if you really want HD TV then you need to get a new TV anyway, that has HDASDFASDFA built in, and then I don't care, and nobody cares. Because I just put in the DVD into the player and it will play.

    no sir. I was also a windows gamer. But then it came to myself. Why the heck should I spent tons of money to a power-eating, over-heating huge box, just to play some games. So I got a PS2 with Burnout 3 and Katamari 2 and I absolutly happy. That thing just works. Just put in the game and turn it on.
