I think this would be great. I might not personally buy it (I'm an old school WP user), but we'd probably buy copies for the 50+ end users at work. I'll take more choice any day, even if they aren't necessarily the best choices.
What's the matter with Stephanopolus writing about Clinton and why he's unfit for office? Does anyone actually disagree with George on this? George should know, he knows Clinton better than anyone else here. Don't blame George for following his conscious - I would abandon my boss if he was a louse, too. No need to go down with the Titanic.
Making $$==selling out? If you've ever written code for money, then I guess you sold out too. If you haven't, then maybe no one would hire you?

So being popular means it "sucks". By that logic, you yourself are either "popular and suck", or are "unpopular and don't suck". Wonder which it is.

I think thats great that you use and enjoy slackware. I did at one time too. Please don't dog on us who use red hat now, though. To each their own, I say.

I'm not an apologist for Linux/GNOME's short comings, but the guys comments were not constructive at all. He had no point, just dogging on Linux. I've been sick all week, and want to celebrate Gnome 1.0 (runs great!) not listen to somebody's negative rants. I agree with most everything else you say.
I hope you're not implying he'll be able to set up a scanner and printer w/o problem under MS Windows, are you? If you are, then you are incredibly naive. I deal with "joe sixpacks" all day long at work (I work at a company that sells mulch and soils). There's no way most of them could accomplish this under Windows. Macs, probably.
The last few releases of GNOME seem to have made huge leaps in stability. The file manager DnD especially has become much more reliable. The panel, and other apps are becoming much more responsive, too. This trend will probably only continue through the next few releases, too. I am really looking forward to seeing it stabilize further, and go 1.0.

Katz, you stink! Get off my website! This movie has nothing to do with geek stuff, but my deep psychological problems forced me to read your review anyways! I bet those Beavis and Butthead dudes are giving you kickbacks for reviewing their movie! How dare you make money off your work! Sellout! Fogie!
I'd like to know what kind of knucklehead tries to compress an image file of random static. I don't know of many algorithms that would handle that well...;)

How do you play it?

IN ZERO G!!!
It's my statement on rampant consumerism. The irony
is that I don't even really LIEK pepsi. Go figure.
Hopefully you don't want it in .doc format...
(that's for the sysadmin job, btw)
that I couldn't be there. :(
Any one with unwanted linuxworld "booty", please
send it my way, so I can at least "imagine" that
I had a piece of the fun.

Drop the 'tude.
am I the only one who thinks Opera's UI is clunky?
When is Netscape making their directory server
available on Linux?
no glibc
no (powerful) package management
no problem
or something
Do I need more coffee or did this article say
that GNOME will be released on Wednesday?
As in "1.0"???
Definately the worst computer company name that comes to mind. Who wants something that's "micro" and "soft"?
Think about it.
Just because the mythical "average consumer" didn't want OS/2, doesn't mean they don't want Linux or Be. ;)
I think... :) .DLLs, correct?
WINE lets you use native windows
I vaguely remember that show. Don't even remember who carried it. Very funny, though. Very obscure, but very funny.

'Mitchell' has to be my favorite MST3K episode of all time. "You can't keep a good Mitchell down..."
Rob, I think you should have a favorite MST3K episode poll in memorial of the show.
"Whoa, was that a beer?"

So what's your point? They didn't convict him, you know...
I also love the "Nixon" defense... "He didn't rape the Constitution as badly as Nixon!" That's a winner.
I voted for Harry Brown, in case you think I'm some rabid Dittohead.
