Yeah, except that it makes sense that some people might want to use KDE, and some might want to use GNOME. What possible justifaction is there for emacs? [ducks]
Duh. You use emacs when GNOME and KDE are just too minimalist for you.
1) Sell do it yourself kit for OpenTablet for the huge audience of Open Source geeks who want a tablet PC running Linux 2) Open specs so that any geek with skill can make changes themselves 3) ??? 4) Profit!!!
5. I'll make all your Final Fantasies come true. 4. You sure set off my Chrono Trigger. 3. Want to see what I can draw in Mario Paint? 2. I'll be Link, and you can be my Zelda.... and...
The Linux version will be available as a downloadable addon to the windows CD. As such your Linux vote will get lost in the Windows numbers. PLEASE either do one of the following: Send in your registration card with the Linux box ticked, or buy from Tux Games [tuxgames.com] who will be reporting back each and every sale we get as a Linux sale.
We get the copy of the game that works with Win32 and OSX as well when we purchase through TuxGames, right?
It seems like more and more people are latching on to the source-based OS these days. It appears to have become the Slackware of the new millennium. That is to say, the Real Men use source-based distros, and anyone who uses a binary distro is a stupid uneducated newbie sod who couldn't figure out how to pour piss out of a boot if the instructions were written on the heel.
The current generation of source based distros has far better package management than RPM based (and dare I say it?.deb based) distros
compile times longer? sure. thats the best point against em. the good news is that (Source Mage Linux at least) when you compile, a binary package is created and zipped, so that if you like, you can compile your system, then burn it to a disk and use it on a similar system... or use your system as a repository for other systems to install from
the wait is sure as hell worth it though. X, KDE3, Mozilla, Konq all fly on my system...
Anyway, get a Dreamcast. They're cheap and you can run Linux on them!
Yeah, except that you can't get them new any more (by all means, let me know if I'm wrong - but just me. We don't want a repeat of last week when somebody bought all 304 copies of crazy taxi 2 off kbtoys.com to ebay them later).
And buyer beware: a small percentage of Dreamcasts cannot run Linux or any CD-R software for that matter. Check the compatability list.
Actually, according to that article you just linked, they all work!

Yeah, I know, T(H)GSB, but oh well. This is important to me.
I think its quite obvious this was a failure. As far as I can tell, nothing was lost from discussions in the past few days. Not to mention the number of people who "aren't posting" sure are doing a lot of posting.
Way to go guys.

Are you supposed to be in this blackout? If so, why are you posting?
I don't think it raises any interesting ethical
questions at all. Could you suggest one?

Who would have thought MS could be taken down by a simple "GOTO" statement....
Duh. You use emacs when GNOME and KDE are just too minimalist for you.
Funnily enough, I actually know of a family with *at least* that many CDs -- probably closer to double.

Where's their ftp site?
It will finally force web authors to support standards not monopolies.

Yes, Lord knows the poor people at AOL are just good honest folk trying to get their foot in the door...
Sounds like a rather expensive shell script to me....
Hmmm.... so let me see if I've got this right...

Anyway, I'm confident the Debian developers will come up with a decent installer by the time Sarge is promoted to stable.
Sweet Jesus I hope so! They'll have years to do so...

That's easy. Windows.
Note the ratio for Windows installs on PC's to people worshipping God
Evil... well duh.
Everyone and their mother has it, whether or not they could afford to buy it *wink, wink, nudge nudge*
and if you were dumb enough to eat glass, well... no sympathy here.

You've never worked retail, have you?
No, no.... even better...

That, my friend, is not saying much.

j/k, btw... I've heard Nautilus is much improved for 2.0.... I'll just have to give it a try and leave KDE3 for a few days...

Check out Xtunes.

o0o0o Doggy! I just can't wait to get my hands dirty on a Hurd system with full networking and driver support for all my periphs!
Yessir, January 1st, 2042 is gonna be one sweet day for Hurd indeed.
Crikey, I just tried that page, and development is hauling ass! it has a 2-5 day release cycle!

Why Linux and not Darwin.....
here's a couple reasons, I guess
Darwin may be (mostly) open, but the rest of OSX isn't...
Geek Factor?
Bored with money to spare?
Personally, I might install linux on it..... but it would be a dual-boot... I wouldn't ditch OSX without really good reason

Oh, goody. This means the market will soon be flooded with significantly more advanced and realistic deer-slaying simulators.
