If you know how to use Gimp you will see that it is not equal to photoshop, but in fact better in some ways and inferior in others. I love some of the art tigert and others do in gimp. Gimp is quite powerful so try learning it a little better before knocking it.
Since netstumbler's web shat the fan you should all go check out www.webs0r.net instead. A patch to wlan and then some scripts make wireless discovery easy.
It was about 3 years ago and the admin where I was working got in a verbal fight with my boss and ended up quitting. At the time I was a web developer and had basic unix knowledge so when the boss asked, "Who knows Unix?!?" and I responded with "I can list files in a directory and add users, does that count?" I was given the job, a stack of O'Reilly books and put all my efforts into learning as much as I could as fast as possible.
Thank god for xp? XP is pussy sys admin bullshit. How about using a real operating system. And how about Microsoft stops paying people to post crap like that?
Slackware is a great, balls-to-the-wall distro and doesn't try to make life easy for people who can't be bothered to read a manual or a book on how to use operating systems properly.
Debain is of course the only exception, but even Debian has more fluf than I want in a linux distro.
I'm a student at Northeastern and the computer science department here are big fans of Slackware and use it for our linux machines. Everyone else I know are big fans of slackware. It is in no way dead and it's userbase is still large!
Its not that he found the problem, people always do that. He was selling software that cracks it for $99. Did everyone forget that? -----------------------------------

I go to school in Boston and recently was told in class that a kid managed to crack his way into some of the NSA's computers. The NSA asked my University for logs of the users network use and the school produced detailed logs going back to when he registered his computer for network use. Pretty scary that the school would actually record all our network use. Obviously not the packets themselves, but hosts the kid connected to and so on. Scared me pretty good. -----------------------------------

I agree about office though. It's a shame.
The lengths some people will go. Why don't I just hire some people to shot some other people to show guns are bad? Oh, because it's illegal..
w00t!

Maybe microsoft should stop paying employees to write good things about microsoft and start writing good code instead!
Why would someone pay money to embed XP when so much has been done already for embedded linux?
They're already invented. Duh... ;)
Perhaps you shouldn't be an admin if you hate it so much. Don't discourage others who may enjoy it.

Mozilla displays it fine. Maybe you should update your copy... :P

It's intended to be a humorous signature, don't take it seriously.
Linux isn't something only Linus uses either, many people who use linux made the initial switch as a result of being fed up with Microsoft software.
Relax dude.

Screw microsoft. Who cares if they know linux or not. I certainly don't mind if we never see microsoft again.
