If the say "windows(TM)" they have to put the little (TM) symbol on it.. By saying Window$ they avoid this problem, since "window" is not trade marked.
Yes, you can't 'copy' a trademark without putting the appropriate text with it - hence its copyrighted.
And plus, these guys are french, give them a break when it comes to english.
Dude, what are you smoking?.. There are heaps of jobs out there that can be enjoyed.
I'm a linux software developer, doing game related stuff. I absolutely love it. It has my two pations, games and linux... There is absolutely nothing I love more than the feeling of success of getting something working (yah, geek, no life, no gf).. And I also love the problems I have to get around.. Everyday I work I feel my mind expanding, learning more cool stuff.
A job _should_ be enjoyable.. a job will be anywhere between a 1/6th and a 1/3rd of your life, including sleeping - so you better enjoy it... The "put up or shut up" attitude of yours is quite pathetic. If you goto your job and dont like it, you dont want to be there, you want to be anywhere but there - then either you need to get a new job or improve the current one. Who cares where the pay is comming from? Whats the point of a life thats unhappy..
it may not have been tasty, but it was damn easy to catch..
all sailors had to do was "hit a piece of wood against a tree" and tens of dodo birds would come flocking to see what the noise was all about.. why?
because the noise of hitting a piece of wood against a tree was the same as the calling noise of a dodo bird..
the other thing was that they were so friendly and not scared at all.. a sailor could pick it up without it running away at all..
which way do they grow in space.. its not like they can push against gravity.. or is it that they head towards the light?, so shine light on all sides;p
either way, i'd like to see a tree grown in 0 gravity:)
Aslong as all the documents are just plain text / formatting / pictures / charts etc and dont have anythigng to rough like VB script (macros) or ole objects - then you should be fine..
But to be honest, I'd definatly hold off until star office 6.0 (few months) - 5.2 is just way to bloat. Although we use it at work, I dont like it much. Or, if you could get it all working fine, you could go for open office.
For other desktop applicatoins I think that kde offers a very good suite - kmail, konq, etc are all very good imho. (And import outlook email folders)

maybe they're moving to america so they are another business in america that relies on linux for their income and can help stop the government introducing the SSSCA:-)
In the news story linked above, one of the "upcomming threats" that someone mentioned was this:
'It is not just terrorists that companies should be worried about. The biggest threat is anti-capitalists. They aren't going to go away. They've seen the hysteria and how capitalists go weak at the knees.
WTF is that about? I consider myself an anti-capitalist (living in a capitalist world, damnit) and so do some of my friends.. but why on earth would be want to break in and destroy computers or launch nukes on them? For gods sake we are geeks!
On my computer, for both listening to music and other such things I used to have a set of relitvly cheap speakers.. to be honest they sucked.
So, I went out and bought myself a pair of sennheiser headphones.
Let me assure you, these things rock. If you get a descent model (i've got the HD200) the sound is awsome, and you dont disturb anyone else around you.
excuse me, but incase you forgot: Many slashdot readers are linux users and/or linux enthusiests. So it would make sense to post this release here.
Im sick of you people who go around saying "slashdot is so full of linux zealots/lovers/etc - ur all biased".. well so damn what?
your the one complaining, now if you dont like slashdot content.. heres a novel idea DONT COME HERE.
Your knocking "ClearChannel" for censoring there networks, while you cant even say "fuck" in public.. quit censoring your submissions, be open with your language if you want everything else to be open.

I could have sworn that almost all operating systems already restrict memory access. This is hardly a new invention.
how do they work out the mass of a black hole?
considering that they are so massive that the gravity causes it to be relitivly small, they can't work on size - so what do they work on?
eh?

thats a damn easy meel!
just like tasmanian's really, all inbread.
The australian TV show, "the science program", described this idea as complete and utter rubish last night.
:)
They say that with current technology the scientists are "dreaming" to think such a thing as possible, and anytime in the near future.
I would love this to be possible, but i am very very doubtful..
anyway, a dodo bird would be alot nicer to re-create
cool, thats what i thought (a friend mentioned they grew away from gravity.. i'd love to see a photo of a tree/plant grown in space :)
which way do they grow in space.. its not like they can push against gravity.. or is it that they head towards the light?, so shine light on all sides ;p
:)

stupid keyboard ;-)
Have they worked out ways to make direct copies of all DVD's yet?
Eg, can I get a DVD burner that is able to burn disks up to the maxiumum size DVD's that I can buy, and are playable in normal DVD drives/players?
If now, how far is that away?
Sure, although CS sucks,.. it does run fine under linux. Just like many other games.
Although I do have to agree with you. Q3UT is a hell of alot better than CS.
actually, i dont run windows on any of my pc's.
Umm.. excuse me, but how am i supposed to play a ".wmv" file - and what is it?

if all the games allowed anyone to create a server, we wouldnt have this problem, would we?

/me returns to playing rtcw demo in OPENGL mode in LINUX with WINE _without_ any windows partitions.
and for any other games u miss, there is always winex
