To avoid infringement and further confusion they should rename the program. To better represent the work environment where producivity software is used these days. Call it OpenCubeFarm.
A few years ago at a prior employer I had written a specification for an enhancement to a large financial application. It had much to do with cheque printing.
Just prior to printing multiple copies of this document for a meeting that was about to start while the printouts were still warm. I did a spell cheque on a machine that obviously had MS Word configured differently from mine
As the various copies are just about finished being passed around to the upper brass of my company and the client 's top brass; One of them asks "What are Tax Remittance Cheeses?"
At this point I was rather worried about my next payroll cheese
Eliminating disposeable products is an attraive[sic] alternative for the consumer and the environment. The corporations would like to have you believe otherwise.
The fact that it's just economics is probably the keystone to many of our current problems.
I'm browsing/. on linux with a phoenix browser. It looks somewhat graphical to me.
If it's not graphical and really character based then can someone tell me what the ascii code is for that character that looks like a Borg head. It's kind of cool looking.
They really went about it the wrong way. For example: There's this one geek news site that seems to be successful winthout any real journalists, real reporters, or even real editors.
Finally got as far as the story

iBook 600mhz
Mac OS X (10.0.x)
Has anyone had this problem? I hope not . . . After the first rain of the year, the ants outside were restless (and homeless). My wife had left her ibook on the mantle charging overnight. The next morning we noticed a large number of ants milling around it. Upon inspection we discovered ants crawling in and out of every hole in the computer. I grabbed my can of compressed air and started blowing! To my horror hundreds of ants started pouring out carrying eggs! I knew this was bad. I took the computer out to the garage and completely disassembled the thing layer by layer . My stomach turned when I exposed the main circuit board and saw thousand of ant and eggs (and a queen or two), writhing across every inch! Argh! After several hours with a vacuum and a can of air I finally got the thing clean. I put it back together (only a few extra screws) and luckily it works fine. Any theories on why ants would decide to move an entire colony into an ibook? Warmth? Sweet circuit boards? I think they were attempting to colonize the ultimate frontier: cyberspace.

At least it doesn't have an operating system built into it like IE.

How about iLegal
I should be allowed to fix computers
They say I'm certifiable.

Where do I apply?
It's not a religious. It's a religion
Repent. Convert from the Beast of Redmond!
The Beast of Antartica will save you.
Why not just remove one lung at a time.
Put the first one back before removing the other one.
I am also nad.
the sooner we focus on the exploration of space, the sooner we retain the excitement and imagination of exploring, which is what we do best.
It's not really excitement that's needed. The sooner we focus on the exploitation of space, the sooner we will have a sustainable space program.
The neccessary capital will not be there untill there is obvious potential for profit.
The party with the more expensive lawyers can ignore their half of the contract and enforce your half.

They should probably also strive to not corrupt kids by monitoring sontent for spelling.
Buy once, use for at least as long as you live (perhaps with some small cash input for maintenance).
The alternative would be to buy a monthly subscripion to the product and be subject to future unexpected(by the consumer) price hikes.
It's somewhat like the difference between open source licences and Microsoft EULA's

Cut plastics out of packaging. Stop making disposeable products.
Is this biodegradeable plastic research really another attempt at planned obsolesence?
They found some fossilized developer manuals, hair dresser equipment, and a telephone sanitizer license.
I'm going to open an appliance store in Niagra Falls Ontario. I'll specialize in legal uncrippled TV's
I should be ready to retire in a few months.
This is your brain
This is your brain on gravity
Any questions?
Improve software choice by limiting the choice of options.
They but a new face on this story.
Then re-used it
Their own Red Flag linux most likely has better filtering technology.
They will probably find that MS sold them an inferior "innovated" version of their own technology.

I thought the general idea was to not run aground on a ship.
It is indeed unfortunate that you cannot be modded as both funny and insightful.
