    Yes... lets see papers from the courts when they have been 'expunged'. You do understand what expunged means right? Maybe not... maybe like George Bush himself you need to ask yourself 'Is our children learning?' (direct quote from Georgie himself)

    And if it's untrue, how come they never sued for slander? How come Karl Rove never denied saying it? He named his sources and Karl Rove was conveniently 'unavailable for comment'.

    I always wondered how brain washed nazis could be in full denial even when staring something in the face. Care to explain why you think Georgie is above coke sniffing? Care to explain WHY he was doing community service and Project P.U.L.L.? Community service for WHAT? Must be for jaywalking huh? As we all know that powerful politicians NEVER try to get their sons out of trouble. Considering that Bush Sr. was also the head of the CIA, I doubt he would EVER try to hide information. As we all know, the CIA loves to keep people informed. Isn't that their motto?

    Keep goose stepping their boy. You're looking REAL good. Bushland, Bushland uber alles!

    If you need proof of George Ws cocaine bust, it is mentioned here . The story was confirmed by 3 sources close to the Bush family and has YET TO BE REFUTED. Naturally, such an allegation would be considered slander... but no one has yet to be sued for it. Instead, in one instance, they discredited the author by pointing out he had previously been convicted, not that the story was UNTRUE, but just that he had been convicted. And severe pressure from the Whitehouse was placed on the publisher to pull the book.

    Hatfield said it was 3 sources close to Dubya and when pressed, he named Karl Rove.

    Commonly known that George Bush jr was busted for coke but the charges were dropped; he refuses to answer any questions regarding the matter. If it were untrue, he could always say so but he has refused to say anything.

    And you doubt my oil comment? What other purpose was there to invade Iraq? Bin Laden connection? None was found or substantiated. Imminent threat? Those around him should be more threatened by Iraq than we are but the refused to join the war on Iraq. Aside from that, several people including Daddy Bush have denied that they had weapons of mass destruction and even though over years of searching, the only weapons we could ever PROVE existed were the ones we gave them.

    It's nice to see you don;t refute the AWOL charges against him.

    I may look like a sheep but at least I'm not a boot stepping nazi who can't face facts. Wake up and smel the coke trail.

    It's not Slashdot vs Bush... it's common decency and civil liberties vs Bush. Have you ever read George Orwell's 1984?

    I remember a time when Reagan preached against the 'commies' because they spied on their neighbors and because the people had no freedoms. Now the same thing is happening in our backyard and you expect us not to say anything about it? Some cokehead who went AWOL is running our government and getting our young men and women killed so that we can have more oil to power our SUV's and you think this is a good thing?

    Hell, even daddy Bush disagrees with you it seems.

    Heh. Your logic is correct but you neglect two key points:

    1. People would choose Windows as they already know it and change frightens them.

    2. All the software they know is made for windows (their favorite game, their favorite app, etc).

    Get software support and a desktop that is similar to Windows and nobody would care.

    Hmmm ...well let's see. If they want insecurity, instability and platform-centric programming that can NEVER be ported to any other platform (still liking C#?), they more than likely will choose IIS.

    I think C# is pretty cool too but will never use it outside of just having to support tools built by other companies in it. It's merely a Java wannabe that loses one of the best features of java... operating system independence.

    I hate to break the news to you but Netcraft counts these as well. The only ones it DOESN'T count are those behind a firewall such as a company intranet.

    If it's port is open to the outside world, netcraft counts it. And again, Windows does not automatically install IIS and run it as a service. Last I knew, you have to choose IIS as an option (depending on the version/package you run) and then you have to start it as a service.

    In other words, Windows machines at home do not automatically become a web server after install...

    Welll yes, this is fairly correct. But the ORIGINAL SCO changed their named to Tarantella. Caldera bought Xenix and all other operating systems from the ORIGINAL SCO and then later CHANGED their name to SCO... so in other words:

    Tarantella = old SCO
    Caldera = new SCO

    and the old SCO sold Xenix and all that crap to what is now the NEW SCO.

    A little more research on the Tarantella website (formerly SCO) shows that Caldera purchased their entire operating system divisions in 2001... meaning that Caldera IS Xenix.

    Now Xenix as you know was Microsofts attempt at Unix. The work on the OS eventually was farmed out to SCO rather than done in house and eventually SCO owned the license to the OS... thus ending Microsofts attempt at a Unix version. Now mind you Caldera (the newly renamed SCO) is NOT the same company, and that Microsoft lost a lawsuit with Caldera forcing a huge settlement out of court.

    Now Microsoft threw tons of money at SCO the second the lawsuit against Linux started... which leads many to believe this is a combined effort by both companies.

    It's given away for free. The only thing they can do which is a violation is to add to the codebase but not contribute the code added (or claim ownership of the code and then sue IBM).
