Why don't they work on an open-source Windows?

On: FreeBSD Changes Hands Again

They could call it FreeBSOD.

lo-fat is for models

On: A Newbie's Guide To A Lo-Fat Linux Desktop

I prefer a fat-ho. Here are her measurements:

%packages
@Base
@GNOME
@KDE
@Graphics Manipulation
@DOS/Windows Connectivity
@Mail/WWW/News Tools
@Multimedia Support
@Network Server
@NFS Server
@Network Management Workstation
@Kernel Development
@Emacs
@Utilities
am-utils

(I've seen fatter... don't be ashamed)

Crooks

Tiger Direct are criminals. Just troll any
vendor reviewer site. Whoever posted this needs
to check themselves.

Anyway, if TD has them, somebody else does too.
I'd buy one from a street vendor first. At least
you can smell if they've washed themselves lately.

Flame away, you 20%.

Ballborg

On: Ballmer Calls Linux "A Cancer"

The Billborg icon is a classic, but I think
it's time we had a Ballborg. He looks pretty
goofy already. Any Photoshop studs out there?

Exchange/Outlook a walking KICK ME sign...

On: When Is Exchange Inappropriate For The Enterprise?

With all the crackers out to get M$, Outlook
and Exchange suffer a higher %'age of directed
hacks/virus attacks. It's like wearing a KICK
ME sign. Not that other MTA's and email clients
aren't succeptible to virus attacks and security
breaches, it's just that most people spend their
time and energy attacking the frontrunner.

We find it very comforting that the majority of these major attacks hardly (if even) affect our enterprise (Sendmail/Netscape Communicator), while our neighbors spend days mopping up. Our users
even recognize that fact, in between bitching about wanting to run Outlook for the calendar
snozz, and b$tching about how bad Communicator is.
