Google needs to fine tune their code. Enter "goatse.cx" and clicking "I'm Feeling Lucky" brings you to their uptime page at Netcraft, not the horrible image we all know and cherish
my question for you is two-fold:
why would you want to feel lucky after attempting to search for the unthinkable, and why, in the first place, would you want to search for goatse? (determining google's crawling abilities aside)
maybe it has something to do with your sadistic cherishing of this image?;)
Who's to say that the BIOS won't phone home and report usage statistics on what OS is running,
didn't this happen a couple of years back with another breakthrough Pheonix Bios, that never actually made it anywhere? Mainly people weren't interested in teh Bios' phoning home, so everyone bought award?
my perception of history, anyways....

How come/. only reviews books I've already read?
so that you may post comments about the book. otherwise, it may say 5 of 10 comments. 5 of which have been moded down troll or flamebait. the other five, focused on the day's SCO story,goatse,soviet russia, and welcoming our new overlord of the hour. (2 links to goatse.)
i beg to differ. if enough people use this word, and it means 'plural of virus' to all of those people, it will infact force it into the language. amazing how democratic a language can be...
and as for your flamebait comments on fighting progress....well my friend, ever heard of AIDS - a little nasty that came from a monkey(??) yeah right. manufactured. SARS? oh yes, from an apartment building in China (what??).
yup - as mentioned above - with Ghost, Mr.Zip and another, ofwhich I can no longer remember the name....and the minute I hit the submit button, it will flash into my head, like a lightning bolt hitting a tree.
and yes, they all work great, depending on the task at hand.
we even ghosted our Testing Novell 5.1 server to our PXE/TFTP Server on Linux...although, the compression with ghost and Novell is horrible. (network boot and dump doesnt care tho)
So, this is flamebait, but the bashing of Windows users isn't? Give me a break.
yes, isnt it amazing how the truth hurts people so much, they have to mod down my post. reality stings like alcohol in a cut. and when people start to realize that most corporations are "REACTIVE" as opposed to "PROACTIVE", they will realize the truth in that post.
all of your points are correct (albeit a bit condescending)-- however, one point he is trying to make(i think), which I whole heartedly agree with is:
When I buy a car - I do buy one that is asthetically pleasing -- not to the extent of frilly blue neon, but something nice. The _most_ important part is what is under the hood--- currently I drive a 225hp car, and may not be the most curvy/stylish in the world, but it fits my mold. (power/control)
Apply said to computer, and we have an attractive grey case, but with a freaking honkin cpu with bad ass mobo.(still no frilly blue neon)...
all true - but i think that 'would like to have' would beat the pants off of 'lust after'. (i have access to a few, and I much prefer an ibook with OSX, than the real thing.) They just don't do it for me...now, talk to me about an Opteron running Linux......mmmmmmmmmmmmm I call _that_ lust.

you'd think they'd figure out how to prevent the/. effect by now.....some people never learn.
sorry to be this guy but otherwise... i'd think this book is about working for dummies....instead of "Making Management Think You're Actually Working, for Dummies"
unless you really do mean "working for Dummies", in which case, if you make management think that...you might not be working for the dummies anymore.
John Doe drank 3 beers at bar A, drove to bar B and drank 4 more
uh, how will they know how many beers "john doe" drank, when he pay with cash? i dont think they will have surveillance on everyone all the time. try tracking 500 individuals in your bar _all_the_time.
chances are, if they made it past your 'checkpoint', they are "in", and therefore, less of a worry than those coming "in".
share binary files amongst a large group of people semi-anonymously around the Internet now is there?;
that being said - i'd still go buy the game (for Linux, and Linux only), as opposed to spending gobs of time trying to find and download data files...i've got better things to do, like post on Slashdot.
and before you go there, no, i dont know how to multitask.

ibm, redhat, sgi, and hp just all get together and chip in some $$ and just buy SCO? (hostile takeover)
it is my understanding that this is what SCO wants.
They no longer have a product to sell (cause it really sucks) and no way to make a profit.
so they sue, hoping that one of the big birds will take them in one fell swoop.
whatever. i dont think that subpeoning LInus will affect their case any.

a distro that's a little close to being usable by most folks as a desktop OS?
i'm sure that Debian is usable as a Desktop OS for 'anyone' - but, can 'anyone' install Debian??
good thing this book came out before the End of Life for Redhat 9, in 5 months.
