Bush just doesn't get it -- his answers are obviously the result of countless focus groups.
No. Many of the answers he gave cause a lot of Slashdotters to flame him. His responses come right out of the GOP platform, if they were the results of a focus group then they would have been spun to agree with the overall idealogy of Slashdot. As they are they don't quite fit the views of most of us.
He doesn't understand technology except from a big business standpoint
And which one does? The scientist is probably as close as you will get and I doubt he could make it through a Debian install. They all see technology as a way to make money because that is what they do. They raise money, primarily from businesses, so that is what they know best.
His comments on the Drug War are especially hypocritical. He says he's going to make peole "take responsibility for their actions". Considering the amount of cocaine that's gone up that nose, he should turn himself in, pay his dues, THEN run for pres
Why would he turn himself in, the law rerquires the police to catch you. Neither is he a hypocrit. Just because he snorted some coke once doesn't mean that he can't straighten himself out and realize that it was wrong.
His idea of leadership is, despite all his talk, simply not there. Where's his vision?
Why don't they compare all the features ?
This is Zdnet we're talking about. I also don't think that this was meant to be a comprehensive benchmarking or anything, more like a blurb to attract some suits. Note that no one dwelled on the fact that their winner will set you back a cool 5 grand but PHP runs $0.00US.
You'd think that as much publicity as these guys get from Slashdot that they would focus on getting a site that can handle more traffic. Think about hits per second instead of frames per second.

Agreed.
Spending on education, defense, and drug plans isn't exactly returning the money though.
If it caught 9 mod points and generated this damn many responses then it was among the greatest trolls of all time.
How much you want to bet that the admonition "If it doesn't work post the bugs and don't complain" doesn't work?

They are portals. Google doesn't load you down with crap, it is about as pure as it gets.
