As far as I know he was opposed to refusal by Feds for paying costs of desegregation. He simply requested additional funds to be provided and when his request was denied he refused to support legislation.

You are not serious here, are you ?
If one can be accused of racism simply because he was invited to B.J.U, what are you going to accuse of thousands of people who actually graduated from that school?
"civil war quote in the Southern Partisan"
He was right.
I am not from the south. In fact I wasn't born in US but even I know that great majority of people who fought against federal armies did not own slaves and gave their lives fighting for independence.
Whow.
I suppose if we were talking about American soldiers we would say " the heroic courage displayed by young American soldiers".
I don't see the difference here...
Would that not create the problem if one company started producing better widgets and consumers flocked to buy products of that company ?
Of course it would - solution, legislate ALL companies make the same mediocre widgets, that way people choice won't matter anymore.
"Computers are driven either into totally dumbed down, copy control encrypted, AOL compliant Idiot Boxes "
Yeah, so are cars ? The point is that for average comnsumer dumbed down machine is exactly what he or she needs.
If you want mess around with your boxes you have and you will continue to have that chance.
"or be prepared to learn an instrument if you want music "
No, be prepared to pay if you want to listen to copyrighted music. Nothing new here.
"Your Idiot Box is soon to come with pre-installed censor-ware, or your ISP is forced to filter stuff deemed bad for kiddies or for our spiritual well being (and who the hell decided that anyway)! "
It is an option, you don't have to install censor-ware. I bet that 10 years from now your favourite porn stop will still be there on the Internet, ready as always to server your sexual needs.
Over last 3 years I have run 3 different AMDs on my development machine ( sometimes involved in very heavy compiling for hours ) and had no problem at all.
Most recent 1 GZ Thunderbird is working perfectly (I had it for a month or so)
I have heard about problems with chipsets but I have never seen or experienced one...
"ho are creating truly innovative, robust platforms or products."
Frankly, I don't see how Linux is innovative or even particulary robust.
I mean it is another Unix clone and not the best at that ( Solaris is much more stable and scalable at this point.)
Lets put it that way...
What we taking here is pardon to people who commited illegal acts trying to carry ot actions which they thought would be beneficial to this country. This is the kind of stuff presidential pardons were invented for...
On the other hand we have Clinton, issuing pardons to common criminals with money in what looks like was a biddin process...
As always, new moral "standards" introduced by Clinton family into US politics.
Well, if you want to go that far then there are other issues with Florida as well, like convicts illegaly allowed to vote for Democratic party..
Tons of illegal emigrants voting for you know who.
Mischief in Florida was "invited" by Gore who , as a first president ever went on a month long challenge to the entire voting system for what turned out to be NOTHING ( recent recounts by press)
Shame on this guy.
No. Because in real world all current commercial apps require at least pentium class cpu.
Much better approach than what Red Hat does; compiling to the lowest common denominator, i386 ( and therefore punishing great majority of people with better hardware just to keep niche (386) market happy)
Do you really expect me to recompile 300+ rpms that come with standard RH installation ?
The difference between somebody compiling app on their custom system and installing binary as far as optimizations are concerned, is nonexistant.
Specially on proprietary system where most users have the same version of sys dlls and other system components.

Ah, our all-knowing big father already thought of that..
Aren't they wise ?
OS,X windows,KDE and GNOME are all part of core OS or system libraries on Windows boxes.
Compilers, editors and languages are for geeks and hold no value for general users.
Multimedia aps and games are mostly of such quality that I would rather use standard Windows player which supports more formats anyway...

Hell, that would very cool man.

"a racist " - Was that really needed?
Specially since you have no proof for this accusation.
Whow. ...

Dude, US is not your enemy.
If anything, EU is where most of potential opressors are.

Not exactly, considering the fact that Athlon CPUs are ussually much cheaper than equivalent Intel offerings ...

Hehehe
Yep.
How were they failed ?
Any examples ?

Two. Just two ( and that's counting Lord British.)
People who let their Sun boxes be administered by Mac user are in real trouble ...
No, not all. In fact most of the blame could be put on Democrats.
"And you are extremenly convincing. "

Yeah, yeah
In the first election Clinton received less votes than Bush did.
Get lost dude.
This county is quickly heading "the Roman way"... ...
In part thanks to people like you
