    Android runs ON Linux. end of story... Including all the utilities unix/linux provides. It is a Linux distribution that relies on Java for the desktop. SuSE, Slackware, and RedHat are based on Linux. They have different desktops based on different technologies.

    During the MSL landing, if you look carefully at the big screen when they are getting the first 256x256 thumbnails, it is a MOTIF PULLDOWN MENU!

  10. Re:Tune in to Coast to Coast AM on Curiosity Lands On Mars · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Watching the NASA feed I was so glad to get a virtual boner from the fact there wasnt a single toy system in the room. I was so glad to see Sun, MACs and Linux systems fully represented.

    I plugged my wireless Logitech Keyboard/Mouse combo usb dongle into my Arnova 10G2 tablet and the mouse comes up as a red outline cursor and the keyboard works flawlessly. I was rather shocked that 2.3.1 handled that out of the box.

    Been doing that since 1997 or '98 I think...

    Driver source? If it isnt out there yet it will be. Look at all the low level docs released.

    I couldnt post the normal capitalized names due to some weird slashdot thing:

    It doesnt work well.

    You forget Microsoft's incessant use of modal dialogs in the past... you couldn't do anything except turn off the computer unless you answered the question or acknowledged the notification in front of you.

  23. Re:Linux support on Blockbuster Trying To Woo Disgruntled Netflix Customers · · Score: 1

    I haven't installed windows since 3.11. I have been totally *nix/Linux. I buy proprietary software over the years. I don't need source for everything. I buy my games (both Linux and Windows/Wine). I bought WineX/Cedega back when it was better than Wine for my needs. I bought my scanner software. Before OpenOffice I used to buy all the WordPerfect/WPOffice versions. I bought every version of VMware Workstation since it came out, although I have qemu working quite well, I prefer VMware. I still prefer my paid-for version of xingmp3enc over the other free encoders. I can go on but needless to say I will open my wallet if there is a need.

    Why do idiots still use that argument that we all want the source or just go away!? Some of us will pay for a quality product or for a specific need.

    Hell, some people still pay for Windows and Windows products instead of downloading them, don't they?

  25. Re:MS hate on Microsoft's SkyDrive Drops Silverlight · · Score: 1

    This is rather an example of MS making crap, MS pushing crap, and MS not being able to support their own crap, but still wanting everyone to use it. That's not damned if you do or don't, that's just everyone saying "It sucks, stop pushing it when you can't even use it."

    I.E. - Windows
