I noted that most of the "successes" anti-cheat programs have attained are largely in the FPS genre
Well, yes. That's where most cheating happens. RTSs and MMORPGs are much harder to cheat in, simply because of the way the games work. The worst you can do in many cases is a maphack, and often even that's not really possible.
Okay, sorry about freeradius vs gnu-radius, I assumed they were the same thing. As for unstable, I'm not sure what your point is - what's what invariably happens if you point dpkg to unstable? I've been running unstable on my desktop for years with very few problems. In any case, openoffice is also in testing (I don't think OO.o 1.0 had been released as of the last stable freeze).
Allofthe packages you mentioned are available in Debian. I can't recall running across a program I wanted to install in the past few years that wasn't.
Anyone who looks at that source is pretty much legally prohibited from ever writing a line of remotely related code for any project. If Wine attempted to make any use of this leak, it would immediately become illegal in the US, EU, and most other copyright-enforcing countries. Probably no one would bother the users, but anyone redistributing it (or developing it) in the US would be cracked down on.
Morphix is awesomely customizable (you can even apt-get install new programs while it's running, and burn new sessions on the CD with the additional software to be automatically installed on future boots). But, it's not quite as slick and easy as Knoppix, and I've had a trouble or two with the hdinstall. Still, it's an excellent distro.
A 9800 PRO for $100 in three months? Dream on. The 9700 PRO is 18 months old and still goes for $200. Even (relatively) ancient GeForce4 Ti4600s still cost $150.
Any sort of file format that requires me to install the company's software to use I will eternally hate, regardless of who it is. I hate Real, and I hate Quicktime.
Quicktime files can be played with any compliant MPEG4 player (mplayer, for example).
Personally I don't understand how something as bland, boring and non-innovative as SC could make #2.
Starcraft may not have been as ahead of its time as TA, but it's still an awesome game. Blizzard have never been great innovaters - their strength is refining and polishing. And Starcraft is one of the most refined, polished, well-balanced games I've ever played. That's what makes it great.
So downloading kiddy porn is OK with a business account then?

censor - "to examine in order to suppress or delete anything considered objectionable".
CBS examined the ad, and is suppressing it, because they consider it objectionable. Therefore, they are censoring it. You can argue semantics all you want, but they are refusing to play an ad because of its message, and that's censorship. It's their right, but it's still not what many people hoped they would do.

KDE is a very well oiled project with regular releases
Not to start a flamewar here, but it's been more than a year since the last major KDE release. GNOME is on a six-month cycle, and has released two new versions in that time. While I'm not disparaging KDE's merits as a desktop, comparing their release frequency to GNOME's is a bit silly.

If you're an entity whose entire purpose is to say things in exchange for money, and someone offers you money to say something and you refuse it, then yes, that's censorship.

Drums != beats, in rap vocabulary. The "beat" of a song is everything that's not the voice.
Well, yes. That's where most cheating happens. RTSs and MMORPGs are much harder to cheat in, simply because of the way the games work. The worst you can do in many cases is a maphack, and often even that's not really possible.

Consider the size of the Linux kernel + X + Mozilla + KDE/GNOME. 600 megs sounds a little small, but I wouldn't expect it to be much over a gig.

2.5 gigabits per second is 312 megabytes per second. Looks like about two seconds to me.
Firebird/fox doesn't use Google because it's the #1 search engine, they use it because it's the best search engine.

No, it's not. That was the announcement, this is a review.
Yes, so the R420 will be fast. Sure. But the Radeon 9800 won't be in the bargain bin anytime soon.

What are you smoking? Wildcards have worked in the file open dialogs since before GNOME 1.0.
No, hardware overlay is working. The point is that Totem provides an option to bypass the hardware overlay and save a shot directly from the file.
SMP kernels do work on just about every machine. There may be a tiny performance loss on non-SMP machines, but it's negligible.
It defaults to 2.2 in the stable release, but 2.4 is an install option and 2.6 is now apt-gettable.

OSX is not BSD with an Aqua interface, it's Darwin (Mach) with an Aqua interface and some of the BSD toolset (along with parts of the GNU toolset).
The Captive project uses Wine technology to natively load the Windows NTFS driver. It's not quite as good as native, but it might fit your needs.
