This would have to be the most stupid comment I have ever read. Are you fucking retarded? or just stupid? Mabey you should learn how a computer opertates before you post.
I just got one and its great. The screen is black and white (with blacklight). You can read it in the dark, or in bright light. Plus you can hold a bunch of books on it. So now instead of having to carry around one larger book, I can carry around a bunch of books on one light device. The device only costs $150 from rca/circuit city/skymall and its well worth it. Plus they have software rbmake for linux that lets you create your own ebooks from html files. The device is also fits very comfortably into your hands, and the screen can rotate which every way you want it to.
Your suposed to wait for the light on a BMW, it slowly counts up to a yellow light. When you see the yellow light that means go in for an oil change, if you see a red light, that means stop driving your car.
How will this catch terrorist? Do they follow the laws? This will work as well as gun control. The criminals will have the guns, and we are stuck with stick to defend ourselves.
The people that are running aol on linux, Won't install linuix, or see linux. If you read this article and past articles, AOL is using linux over ms because they don't have to pay $90+ a box for windows. And when box prices are dropping down to $300, an extra 90 makes a big difference. No one is going to have to INSTALL linux, no one is going to have to touch it at all.
I bet they worked hard on their alpah and sparc ports... Lets see, go out get a copy of alpha redhat linux, change the name to Mandrake Alpha linux and done with that, and then take a copy of Sparc redhat linux and change the name to Mandrake sparc linux and done with that. Must be nice to leech off other companies. This strategey worked for their Mandrake intel port. Wait, they added kde instead of gnome, I forgot how hard that is.
tar -xvzf kde tar -xvzf kdelibs cd kde ./configure blah blah make make install cd kdelibs ./configure blah blah make make install
wooo dogy, i'm glad mandrake was around to do that for me.
Some people say they are going to, I am. I was going to buy A dvd player, but now i'm not. And i'm not watching movies at the theaters any more. And to top it off, i'm not going to buy videos/dvds. Mabey some of you should talk less and do more.
a ) just because you use Kerbos doesn't make you a SECURE operating system. Hell, i'll make an OS with JUST KERBOS so i'll be the most secure.
b ) I hate gui config tools, they slow me down.
c ) Has anything decent ever came out of CNN? oh wait, all the y2k fud.
d ) They author knew before he started who he was going to pick, they didn't do any testing, they did stuff... and then tipical cnn reporting, the reporter threw the facts to the wind and said whatever he wanted.
You all say you want to do something, well heres an idea, Try not renting any movies anymore, or watching them. Read a book. And then watch disney/fox/and the other's stations, get the advertisers, and then call the advertisers and tell them you are going to protest their product because they are on a station that molested the rights of a 15 year old kid. Also spread the word to your friends, movies are dumb, don't watch them. Raising money for lawsuits is worthless, if your just going to keep giving the movie people the money back for layers by watching their movies. The only real way to stop them is bankrupt them.
What a bunch of idiots. Have any of you even used windows ce? it sure beats linux hands down, it has a great web browser too, unlike some os's we know of (linux). I got a HP from work with Windows ce on it, and it works great, I'm glad it didn't have linux on it, because then I would spend the first 10 hour battery on trying to figure out how to get the dial up networking to work, and then the next 10 hour battery life trying to download software/compile it test it, and then spend the next 10 hour battery life trying to find out why the software crashes( not the kernel, because linux is ROCK solid) Yes windows ce does suck, i wish i had linux on my palm top so I had something to do all day instead of work.
Oh ya, its not slow either, but you would already know that becusae you used it right? People on slashdot wouldn't say stuff without first testing it would they? ok, moderate this down to -1 becuase i didn't say i want to fuck linus and his mom.
get your head out of your ass before you tell me to get my head out of my ass. If email systems worked the way aol did, I couldn't send email to anyone beacuse aol would cock block my email because i'm not from their server! so before you go and try to show me some dumbass link read the fucking comments first! mabey if you show that article to your highschool computer teacher, he'll give you a "good job" and a "your so smart" and then suck you off.
lets see asshole, microsoft with one client that tried to support both microsoft chat and aol's chat, and then we have aol who has aol im,and icq, neither which support anything but their own, Why don't you get off you fucking microsoft sucks high horse and see whats up.
Your missing the point, i CAN send mail to that server, and people on that server can send mail back to me. The other server doesn't say, well that mail is coming from a netcom address so i'm not going to let him mail my people, that is stupid. I hope people realize this and stop using aol. Use irc or something they don't pull that crap. MS has their own servers, and they would let aol use them to send to their people, just like email.
you have angered god, somehow.. not sure how.. , but now you must pay! and since god is a base 10 organism the year 2000 is the best date to pick, good thing he's not a base 8 creature or most people wouldn't know which year to be scared on.
If they add this in, I think its time to start a new standard commite(sp?) Just get microsoft to back us:) right now I'd bet they'd back anything anti goverment:)
Slashdot Mirror
They do charge for their browser. You pay for it when you pay for the operating system.

I wish I wasn't surounded by morons.
They used gkt/gnome instead of qt/kde. I find that a big bug.

The Distro they are actually using is nomad linux, you can find it at Nomad Linux
and now you too can have a robot to go around your house and identify stuff.

I'm sorry your so pathetic that you must watch tv and movies.
the movie industry thrives off of morons.

I think rob should worry about getting laid on earth before he moves on to space.
Whats the diffrence between them creating life or me going out and shooting somone in the head and taking a life? The world won't come to an end.
Am i the only one here that wants to tie robs nuts together, jump on his back, and then see how long I can write opensource code?
They already have these dumbass. They have had them for years.
I like the tities on laura croft! and I bet bill gates does too!
