  6. What's so difficult ? on NASA Will Go Metric On the Moon · · Score: 1

    Here in Europe a lot of people had to adapt to convert betwen different units both ways when we (not all Europeans but still a lot of them) switched to EURO (€) instead of having each country use its own currency. Sure it takes time (already 4 or 5 years and running) but it's not that difficult, especially when you don't have a choice in the first place :-)

    What is so different with units of measure ?

    Precisely, but you can say it both ways : GNU/Linux is not interoperable enough with Windows, or the other way around : Windows is not interoperable enough with GNU/Linux.

    Why do your customers always seem to look the same way ? Just explain them, they should understand : If Windows doesn't work, they just have to move to something else that does.

  14. Re:My bet on Novell Gets $348 Million From Microsoft · · Score: 1

    Exactly what I wrote yesterday in the previous story about this deal.

    Because I didn't RTFA, I didn't know who would receive most of the money. If Novell seems to be the big winner, then surely Microsoft has to gain something as well, and early dropping further suits is probably worth some millions US$.

    > I've never heard of voter fraud in France

    Then listen to the radio/tv these days, they are finally putting to trial a massive fraud which took place in Paris in 1989.

    The fraud was done by making some people vote in a different part of the city where they weren't allowed to vote in. Also I think they made some dead people vote...
