I only do it because it turns me on. The way those letters roll on the monitor while I'm typing, so sensual:) And how about that Shell? Simply gorgeous.
Yes, but that stuff doesn't come for free even if they have you believe otherwise. I agree, MS should include an AntiVirus. But I'm sure they don't feel like getting into another lawsuit.
Actually, now it does tell you that a program is trying to access your address book. It may surprise you, but yeah many companies use that feature. Do you really think that MS just felt like adding more code to Outlook just for the heck of it?
Cool, then Why should you have to BUY insurance? Why should you have to BUY locks? Why should you have to buy a security system? Why should you have to pay taxes for cop's protection?
First they come up with the World Copyright Treaty and then, in an attempt to prove that they have control over everything, they ask that MS do whatever they want. Imagine that, putting Java in a stripped-down version of Windows. Sure sounds weird.
But that's not a bad thing, it's a good thing. I mean without governments, laws, senators, lawyers, patents, DMCA, RIAA, etc. who else would be able to put a little evil in a society?
Those Marketroids are the ones who figure what people need and what they dream about having so they can suggest a product that will appeal to the majority. What is the meaning of a good product when no one wants it?
This reminds me of the movie industry. I see plenty of foreign movies receiving awards, oscars, etc. Maybe they're good but I don't usually like them. Hollywood movies appeal to the majority of the population and that's why everybody watches them.
Actually the school has to pay for those ibooks. I don't see how a Mac can be cheaper than a Linux powered laptop.

It does get to -40 degrees celsius in Canada if you count the wind factor. In winter the tempurature is usually -20 degrees and I don't see myself using IT at that temperature.
What advantages does it bring that the bicycle doesn't? And what exactly will people do in winter? Sure they say that it works well on snow, but I don't feel like riding it when it's -40 degrees outside. I agree, it's a technological marvel but I don't see how it can help me in my day-to-day live. At a speed of 8 miles an hour, it's clearly not enough. I can walk faster than that.

It's Open Source so they can modify it to fit their politics :)
Money, hey? I thought that Open Source didn't necesserily mean free. It sure doesn't but hey 99% of Open Source products are free.
We're all free to code and soon enough we'll all be coding for free. Viva la révolution
Chances are that 99% of us are funding the government. Definitively not the government who's funding us.
RMS says that 43% of Open Source programmers are paid for their work.

hey now are you saying that Canada has a communist government? Oh wait...nevermid.
it's true, as an experienced internet user, I don't use chatrooms nor download music. However I do play online games; not the browser based ones.
It clearly states in the feature list that you can use your own ISP. However AOL/Compuserve aren't supported.

yeah, with your line of thinking, soon enough you'll be saying why blame terrorists? Why blame thiefs? Why blame crackers? Why blame pedophiles? etc.
oh yeah sure, great feature for newbies it'll sure bring an avalanche of Linux viruses.
Don't worry, soon enough the AOL/Sun partnership will help those 41 other states change their mind.

aha, so funny. MS giving money to promot Mac's? Over their dead body.

I would tell that senator to get outta my way. We were doing pretty damn good without government involvment. We don't need your so called "help".
The only thing he can do is to try as hard as he can to protect our freedoms and oppose the laws who place limits on our freedom.

heuh? It's a virus, it should not be executed in the first place.

From now on I'm gonna stop listening to what Steve Jobs says. Man what a disappointment.

good point but very few people know about this site and it sure doesn't look impressive.
So what you're telling me, is that given the opportunity, people will steal if they're sure they can get away with it?
