  1. Catch22 on NCSU/Red Hat "Open Source University" · · Score: 3

    We want linux to be popular so vendors will support applications...but only in the right venue do we want this distro or that distro. I'm all for this type of integration. Many people will be converted to linux and thus create that broad user base we need for vendors to start supporting the applications we all want. One way or another it's _still_ linux, support it in whatever form because it's making camputing experiences better for all of us.

  2. Statistically on crack... on Is There Anyone Left To Buy PCs? · · Score: 1

    Shall we count up peripheral sales and divide by the number of said items it takes to make a "computer"?

    I'd like to see the statistics on the average megahertz by country... We then anaylize the increase in software production and the dependancy relative to software requirement's. I'm sure we'll all find that computers are witches, and what do we do to witches?! WE BURN THEM!

  4. one world one web one distro? on Turbolinux CEO Sees A One-Distribution Future · · Score: 1

    I just dont see this as feasable with so many established distro's and some publicly traded, that would mean business mergers and we all know most of these people are friends and co-developers to an extent. If one were to introduce a corrupting factor into the mix of open knowledge and development we may start seeing things for the good of the "company" rather than the consumer/enduser let's stick with what we know works. Open competition.
