"Enforces" is totally incorrect. There is nothing in in Java that forces you to use their suggested naming convention. By its very definition, it's just that, a convention.

Ford To Move To Linux

Maybe you don't know what you're doing. I develop for it every day and have found only minor problems and the parent post indicated. Perhaps you could cite some examples.
Did you just miss the point completly?? That's exactly what the parent poster said. Loki did just ports, mostly of OpenGL games and they still couldn't stay in buisness. The bottom line is that there is no money in it since Linux users won't pay for software. Sad but true.

How exactly is that Microsoft's fault??? If you want to run a 5 year old OS, be prepared to spend time downloading patches. (the modem use is a whole other issue). Downloading patches would be the same for any 5 year old OS, windows or linux. Find soneome else to blame.
Wrong. Since the chances of getting AIDS as a homosexual mail is about 300% higher then for other people, then yes, it really is their fault. If you could get AIDS by riding the same subway car as someone else, then your argument would work. Till then, sorry, try again.
"Oh, sorry - I forgot, in America those that get AIDS deserve it for being God-hating fags. Welcome to the new world order.

Close. Except it's not because they're "God-hating fags", but rather because they did it to themselves. No one forced them to adopt a life style that has a high probabilty of contracting AIDS. I feel sorry for them that they contracted it, but they really have no one to blame but themselves. Sorry.

Where is the proof? This dribble has been spouted on/. way to many times. As a web developer I can tell you that writing to the spec, IE ALWAYS works the way it's supposed to. Netscape/Mozilla are the ones that don't.
I hope you're not saying that the W3C is a standard. IT IS NOT!!! It's a recomendation, and a fairly stupid one at that. Show me one good looking site (that's not a couple of solid blocks of color with text) that meets the W3C recomendation. They don't exist. The recomendation is so lowest common denomanator that it's pathetic.
"In any case a bankrupt Mandrake my not mean the end of the Mandrake distribution."
We hear this everytime a Linux company files for bankrupcy, but in the end none of them ever survive. When will Linus learn? Drop the GPL and watch Linus flourish. Companies (those things required for "real" sustainable growth) absolutly hate the GPL.
Did you stop to think, just for one moment, that perhaps they're not doing it to help the big media companies and instead doing it for business and consumers that want that sort of thing. I know around here it's unpopular to NOT be able to steal music, but some actually can't wait for this kind of thing. My information want's to be mine, not free.
Attended a public school, didn't you? Robin Hood never stole from the rich to give to the poor? He stole from the govt (Sheriff) to give to the poor because they were over taxed.
Sorry, but your argument doesn't quite work? Women fighting for the right to vote where not calling for an overthrow of govt. They were asking for certain laws to be changed. There's a big difference there.
"And so what, what if you hate the way this country is run? What if with every fiber of your being you wish to see the current government brought down? Does that mean you need to be imprisoned? NO!!"
Yes, or at the very least (if you're an immigrant, ) be deported. Activly trying to bring down the govt should be considered treason. Simple as that. Treason should be punishable by death.
