  1. Re:In Apple's defense on Apple Sends Cease-and-Desist To the Hymn Project · · Score: 1

    Except that Sasha is actually a male name (russian).

  2. it's really hard to believe on 6 Months On, Vista Security Still Besting Linux · · Score: 1

    Thank you, but I'd rather stay with my less secure Linux. Not because I hate Microsoft or someone told me it was more secure. The reason is my personal experience with Linux and with various Microsoft Operating Systems. I know it's kind of early to judge Vista alone, but I do see a pattern in Microsoft products security.

  3. What comes to mind is... on FDA OKs Brain Pacemaker for Depression · · Score: 1

    ... Larry Niven's "Ringworld".
    Now we are going to have "current addicts", besides potheads and such.

  4. Re:Who will keep you and your family safer? on Pre-Election Discussion · · Score: 1

    Bottom line is I think that Bush talks a lot about making us all safer, but does the opposite.

    He only cares about his personal agenda, not our safety. He made a lot of new enemies for us. He ignored terrorism threats before 9/11, and after that, instead going after Bin Laden, he decided to invade Iraq, riding on the wave of opportunity when he could hint that Saddam had something to do with 9/11.
    I remeber Bush saying that he will hunt Osama down, that he (Osama) "can run but he can't hide". And what? Osama is alive and well.

    Sorry for all of you Bush supporters, but to me, he's just a big mouth, and a master of bullshit.

  5. can be done on Migrating Your Office from Windows to Linux? · · Score: 1

    I'd suggest StarOffice. So far, I was able to open any M$ Office document (with the exception of VBA code in them), and save in M$ Office format. There is also Windows version, which could greatly help in migration.

  6. definitely Thinkpad on Which Laptop To Buy? · · Score: 1

    I have Thinkpad T21. One of the first things I did was replacing winmodem with modem-ethernet combo by 3COM, which works great. And IBM's service is great. I had a problem with the power supply (noise) and after a caal to tech support they sent me a new one - they didn't even want the old one back.
