A guy I work with had shakey hands and with taps enabled on his laptop, he managed to drag the Start menu stuff in Win98 to another directory. When I tried to drag the Start Menu Dir back to where it belonged I got:
Cannot perform this operation as it is a Rooted Explorer
The "real" issue here is what is the end game for Saddam, what is his final goal . Let me tell you about something that he has now, and is mass producing.
Botulinum Toxin...

Who supplied the computers for the nuclear research??
Who supplied Iraq with Fuel-Air Bombs in the late 80's???
What goes around, comes around my friend
Yet another failure by the US in controlling the global political climate...
Ex-MislTech Tech Support Guantanamo Bay Cuba
In that case you can release or charge the prisoners you have there... THE most inccorect thing the US has done since WW2
Are you being serious??? That article had hardly any talk of linux in it at all, mainly just a fluffy, candy, human interest story about how a techie likes to spend his time with his kids instead of with other programmers.
True, but any press in the 'Mainstream' about Linux is a positive (except the 'Linux worm halts internet' type reports...).
People like linus are probably the best people to have as Linux advocates. Geeks ranting and foaming at the mouth with anti-MS vitriol do not help the 'cause' one bit.
Calm, rational, normal(ish) people who are willing to do a bit of puff every now and then are going to get Linux into peoples minds.
It worked for Apple, and could work for the Linux community.
Start with some puff, and gradually add the details.
What intersts me is the IDSOFTWARE.COM address. Does DOOM have anything to do with this?

The grand plan? "We want to drop a Greyhound bus from a C5A," says Gasson. "We'll fill the bus with 40 or so skydivers, and they'll climb out on the way down."
Can anyone else see this coming up on 'Worlds Worst/Funniest/Stupidist Disasters' or 'When Buses Attack' soon???
Quite seriously, regardless of your personal beliefs regarding intellectual property rights and wrongs, and subscription news services: How is it that we pat a news organization on the back for paying lip service to our favorite operating system, and then infringe on their copyrights?

Hehehe...

But Jimmy Barnes did sing the following:
Too much ain't enough love to satisfy me...
Which of course makes no sense....
My theory is that Too much good health is bad for you too
Paraphrasing Anne Elk (John Cleese): That is my Theory, that is to say it is mine, and no-one elses. All my own. Mine. Not yours.
too much anything is too much
That's why it's called "Too Much"
