not so tiny our market share is only small in the desktop market in embeded (tv's blueray players streaming boxes etc) server, mainframes, super computers, mobile, and pretty much everything else we rule the market.
you could try putting portable virtualbox on a flash drive 32 gig aught to do and install say ubuntu or debian on a vm then do your development in there
Lost office sales must have convinced them to do this as a way to push people to cloud services, once they're on the cloud MS can find some way to wring cash out of them.......
Oooh ooh ooh.. Classic Slashdot business plan. I know this one:
1. build web office suite
2. get lots of people using it for free
3. ????
4. profit
Next Microsoft will be releasing Office under a GPLv3 compatible copyleft license!!!
same here i used office 97 until i switched to OO.o/LO. installed and ran fine. it is one of the ms products that fallowed all of the rules and uses more or less unchanged interfaces same ironically with ms bob which i got board in windows server class and installed on windows server 03.
non rollling distro should never ever ever have a dist-upgrade applied it is a bad idea it will break stick with long term support for servers and back format rebuild when the next lts comes out. it is cleaner and probably faster than trying to iron out all of the incompatiblities.
bbbbttttttzzzzzzzzzzz wrong thank you for playing. all they need is to put it in the kernel. there are plenty of binary blobs in there already so don't go pulling that. or do as vmware does with player and workstation provide the necessary bits in tar.gz with a install script written in python
Installing updates while the session is running causes havoc with some apps like Firefox that have file resources that have not been locked (just try updating xulrunner when Firefox or Thunderbird is openâ¦)
but i am also a regular Linux desktop user and as for firefox needing to be shut off when ever i run update i am simply informed that i need to restart firefox. no reboot ever. occasionally i may have to logout and back in for a update/install but still no reboot needed. this is still a pointless bad idea.
this has nothing to do with installing without a network connection it has to do with shutting down and rebooting to install. Read the summery and artical. Besides you can put the rpm's or deb's on a cd/dvd/thumbdrive and install them all now and i think there is a group working on super-deb's which is a deb package with the main app plus all dependencies. Not only that but you can already have synaptic generate a script to download the debs you need from a connected computer, in ubuntu it does at least. So not only were you wrong about the real issue you were wrong about the one you made a mistake about.
With something like this, he owns the land, not the island. That may sound stupid, but the island itself is part of Hawaii. For example - if the governor or legislature decides to build a highway across the island, they simply declare eminent domain and seize the land they need (paying for it at some "going rate"). However if he really owned the island, the government couldn't legally do that. So he is like any other landowner. The only difference is that he owns 98% of the land. All of the normal laws about land use still apply. If they have zoning there, it still applies. If they have laws like California does about maintaining free access to certain parts of beaches and waterways, those still apply. That's a far cry from what most people think of when they say someone owns an island. They generally think of it as the person being basically the sovereign there. And that is not true in this case. Larry isn't the king Yet.
no he thinks he is iron man hell he and oracle sponsored the movies. in avengers in the first couple minutes of the film you can see the oracle logo on the servers in the secret sheild base and there is a iron man and avengers section on the oracle site
If you like Asimov you could go with "Norby Chronicles" by Issac Asimov and his wife Janet Asimov. it is a series of scifi stories for kids it even has the three law show up occasionally.
hell backward comparability could still be maintained via visualization and compatibility layer like (like wine only with access to the source code). singularity kernel does look interesting but I think a more Unix like kernel would be better and give them a larger code base to draw from go with something closer to say plan9 with a integrated supervisor for running legacy applications.
no we had already tested them. we just dropped them on them. and no weren't just settling a grudge. we were in the middle of a total war and we were facing a invasion that would of cost both sides tens of thousands of lives in a very bloody very protracted war. we bypassed that in favor of two air drops. not grudge settling just war ending. and if we didn't it would have been very possible that japan would have fallen to Russia which would have put it in a much worse situation.

maybe it because there aren't as many welfare sucking illegal Canadian immigrants because they already have free health.
and that children is why we invented dosbox
because no one could ever want to use a gpu in a computational cluster oh wait.
The owe our tiny market segment exactly nothing,
not so tiny our market share is only small in the desktop market in embeded (tv's blueray players streaming boxes etc) server, mainframes, super

not if they plan on complying with the gpl

just as long as they never start using MS Works. that is an oxymoron if i ever saw one.

yes because insulting my typo defeats my point.
distros don't matter if you put the the driver in f'ing kernal where it belongs

First off i did read the artical

why is this a good thing exactly?

that is so those with the nukes already are afraid of M.A.D. so they won't use them on us. we get rid of them and we have lost our defense from them
