Windows is powerful on the desktop, but it falls short in anything more than a four or eight way server.
Solaris is good up to 100+ CPUs but sucks on the desktop.
IRIX is good for scalability and professional level desktop apps, but doesn't have the capabiltiy to be a generic workstation.
AIX, server, not workstation.
HP-UX, Tru64, etc, same
VMS, rocks for transaction based services, bites bag for applications.
Linux is trying to be everything at once. I think with more focus on one end or the other, Linux would go a lot farther. It doesn't have the developer base to do EVERYTHING well, just like the commercial OS vendors.
Take those papers straight to the labour relations board. They stand up for your rights for free (free council and such) and will make sure you get everything you deserve. That's how it works in BC, anyways.
You should have been working with FIFTH (from www.catseye.mb.ca):
#18a: FIFTH FIFTH is a precision mathematical language in which the data types refer to quantity. The data types range from CC, OUNCE, SHOT, and JIGGER to FIFTH (hence the name of the language), LITER, MAGNUM and BLOTTO. Commands refer to ingredients such as CHABLIS, CHARDONNAY, CABERNET, GIN, VERMOUTH, VODKA, SCOTCH, and WHATEVERSAROUND.
The many versions of the FIFTH language reflect the sophistication and financial status of its users. Commands in the ELITE dialect include VSOP and LAFITE, while commands in the GUTTER dialect include HOOTCH and RIPPLE. The latter is a favorite of frustrated FORTH programmers who end up using this language.

I saw a bumper sticker the other day on a tow truck that said:
You could submit stories to www.kuro5hin.org. They use a peer review system to determine what is posted and what isn't. Just make sure you're funny enough and you'll be okay.
This should be -1 Pseudoscience. There is no evidence to back up any of the theories in that book. It's one of those "look at results, form theory to fit" books.
You know that there are some truly spectacular Windows sysadmins, right? They never reinstall, they just fix the problems. The thing that tarnishes Windows to the elitist "Linux people" is that there is a glut of idiotic Windows sysadmins as well. The other thing the "Linux people" don't realize is that there is an equal percentage of idiotic Linux admins out there too.

The Bon Jovi story was last Tuesday.

Or Ketamine, or DXM.
Not that I would ever do that.
The ironing is delicious.
It must be piracy because everyone wants to buy new records from a rock band that is 15 years out of date.
Or will they go down in a blaze of glory?
VLM
1. Very Large Memory.
2. Virtual Loadable Module.
That would be "Robotica" on TLC.

The chairman of the dot com I worked for died of a drug overdose after he lost $400m on paper.
Try going into Circuit City or Best Buy and asking for a "multi-codec audio player." :)

Also fitting, IMHO.
I assume the Hydrogen would be used as fuel for PEM Fuel Cells rather than for combustion.
When are they come out with a game where I can wave glow sticks to trance music?

I was referring to "Cellular Automata," not the original article.

Hmmm, typical zealotry.
Windows 2000 Server and newer includes a facility for automatically distributing patches. You don't have to spend any money.
But it's such a perfect contextual fit!

Only if you have a circular lawn. You could use two poles if your lawn was elliptical.
Actually, you're incorrect. It has both gyros and a ball or optical sensor. It uses one on the desk, and the other in the air. The optical one is new.
