Windows is the common term. People only us "Windows XP Professional Edition OEM" or "Windows 98 SR2" when it's necessary.
Linux doesn't HAVE to be targeted towards anyone!

This is the typical business person,[...] Like it or not, that is the person that Linux, and OpenSource in general must be targeted toward.
Says who? If you want to target that person it's your business. Me, I just want the most efficient porn downloading system available. Fred over there is just cheap. Sally on the other hand is just a geek and want to learn OS fundementals. And Sam uses Linux because it makes the best Quake server.
Linux is whatever YOU want it to be. Don't make the mistake of thinking it has to serve your agenda.
Why not just get an el cheapo dvd standalone unit for your TV. You get a remote and probably a bigger picture. Why would anyone watch DVDs on their computer, Gnu/Linux or Windows?
Take this article from Scientific American for example Watching Wrestling Linked to Violent Behavior . Other studies have found simmilar results. Kids are like monkeys. Monkey see, monkey do.
They could call it 7.2345346 or 56.8. I think most Gnu/Linux users try to be a bit more rational than to worry about whatever version number they decide to slap on it.
I think Red Hat should be given credit based on the quality of the release, not the version number.
He said if you cannot explain your idea to an intelligent freshman, then you don't really understand it yourself; an even better test might be to explain your idea to an intelligent twelve-year-old.
Let's hope they do. Recycling really isn't necessary in the states due to the fact that we have millions and millions of unused and rarely seen acreage.
You previously agreed to let them in. When they decide to come in you have no right to "shoot them". If you refuse them entry their recorse is to get a judge to send a sherrif. (which they have done)

Ellison is without doubt the most pompous jackass I've ever seen in my life.
What a goddess!
Isn't it time for another SonicBlue article?
/. really isn't a jive joint.

It is not yours, it is still mine. I can re-license my gnu-solitaire code to microsoft for $1000000,you cannot.
Your going to download anyway, right?

Signal11 is that you?
They tried that. It was called Black and White. Booring.
The rumors are that most CIA personnel feel guilty about 9/11 and are working balls to the wall to redeem themselves.
Ever heard of the 6 Days War? Israel defeated Egypt, Jordan, Syria in 6 days.
If any Arab country had any hope of defeating Israel they would have attacked already. They don't and they won't.
If they had any REAL skillz, they'd have a REAL job.
Or at least that's what the advertisers think. Anyone with a clue filters them out.
What's money behind Linux? Let's see IBM, Intel, Redhat, HP ...
All American companies last time I checked.

What's Son's spot on the PC manufacturer list? 8 or 9? Yeah Video seems to be a real killer app.
