  1. Re:Support? on Microsoft to Continue Mac Support · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Although my experience with the Mirosoft support site has been good, I have not had to use it much.

    But I do know one thing....Microsoft supports its developers. With the MSDN Library and the Platform SDK documentation, one can find pretty much anything

  2. I'll stick to Slackware on Lindows - Where's the Source? · · Score: 1

    Really, the only reasons they released it under the GPL are

    1) Attracts more attention
    2) They can steal other GPLed work

    I really don't see why it is taking so much time to come out with a beta....all they have to do is basically steal code and modify it.

    I, for one, will not be jacked by Lindows, and I think that most developers feel the same way. They have not made any significant contributions to any open source projects plus you have to pay $99 to get the source.

    IMO, the whole thing defeats the purpose of the GPL

  3. Re:Archos is smaller, cheaper, more GB, USB 2.0 on The New Nomad Jukebox, And Handheld Oggs · · Score: 1

    I have one....they really are great.

  4. Re:I'm begining to think on XP, Phone Home · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Ever heard the idea that if you throw enough "crap" at a wall something is going to stick.

    Like Slashdot in their "I hate Microsoft" campaign? Throw enough articles at it and voila?

  5. Re:Ti bicycles on The Sexiest Metal · · Score: 1

    I don't know about common....the only time I see titanium bikes is in races. I have never seen a titanium bike with a kickstand (I find it kinda silly that they take the kickstand off to reduce weight.)

    They also have a special type of wheel, rendering titanium bikes useless unless on a smooth road.

    IDKWPUOAFNPR (I don't know why people use obscure anagrams for no particular reason)

  7. Re:Let me get this straight: on CNN Says Chat Rooms Are a Haven for Hackers · · Score: 1

    What do you think corporations are going to do? Buy new computers with your credit card?

  8. Re:My Services on Microsoft Gives Up on Hailstorm · · Score: 1

    Microsoft is simply tired of having unstable income sources. After a release, all the money has to be managed, and they have to make a guess on how much can be put forth to each branch until another major release

  9. Re:On Windows? on LinuxPlanet Reviews KDE 3.0 · · Score: 1

    yeah, but what about without a cygwin layer? I don't see why kde can't be easily ported if qt is cross-platform (if porting a few other libs is not a problem)

  10. Re:This isn't a wireless monitor on Wireless Monitors? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Yeah, but it proves that the editor did not even take the time to read the first paragraph. If he did, he would have added a note on.

  11. Re:Wireless Monitor? Not happening... on Wireless Monitors? · · Score: 1

    wouldnt a screen with the ability to draw vector graphics just be a monitor with more features? Like adding an extra command set to a processor

  12. Re:KDE's appearance on LinuxPlanet Reviews KDE 3.0 · · Score: 1

    Who cares about looks? The main reason for creating a 3.0 was the (2.0 incompatible) release of qt 3.0.

  13. Idiot on Blizzard/Vivendi Files Suit Against Bnetd Project · · Score: 1

    Actually, it was a joke; I didn't think anybody would be naive enough to take it seriously, but that's ok.

  14. Re:Imagine.. on ASCI White Detonates The First E-Bomb · · Score: 1

    Are you kidding? The computing power would be at least 50x as great

  15. Re:Nice... on ASCI White Detonates The First E-Bomb · · Score: 1

    Can it check my e-mail?

  16. Re:so when they said the system was "da bomb" on ASCI White Detonates The First E-Bomb · · Score: 1

    Just wondering....how would this help with cancer research projects?

  17. Re:starting the thread on Blizzard/Vivendi Files Suit Against Bnetd Project · · Score: 1

    I'm not claming the art, but I introduced the Slashdot community to the idea. It started with a couple of "Friday troll haikus" (the idea came from a local 2600 group mailinglist) which hardly had any effect at all. Then, recently, a karma whore apparently saw and posted a haiku modded up to 5, now, they are everywhere!

    I demand credit! The whole slashdot community owes me!

    MOD ME UP, SCOTTY!!! Don't make me sue!

  18. Screw you all on Blizzard/Vivendi Files Suit Against Bnetd Project · · Score: 1

    I'm the one who started the whole haiku trend!

    And you are a fucking moron

  20. Re:To dumb on Bad Review for the Zaurus · · Score: 1

    Jesus christ you're an idiot...besides forgetting the 'o' on "too," your logic is....welll...nonexistant.

    How can you think there is a benefit in being "hard to use?"

    If he wanted to do something challengeing with no real benefit, he would do math problems for christs sake.

    It's you. That was a pretty dumb question.

  25. Re:HYPOCRISY on KDE 3.0 is Out · · Score: 1

    It's not the fact that it is breaking news that makes people upset....it is the fact that posting a story before the mirrors can get up is just plain idiotic
