I see. So it's perjury if it is not merely issuing a fraudulent notice but if the notice is issued not by copyright holder, leaving all other abuses -- such as issuing notices against fair use, or against distribution that is licensed by the copyright holder -- as "only" fraud.
So according to a two American political organizations, US is among the top countries chosen by being favorable to American companies? Stop the presses!
The patch imitates a nonstandard behavior -- if it sees BIOS claiming that ASPM is disabled, it leaves devices in whatever state BIOS left it instead of following what BIOS claims about device. This is certainly a bug in BIOS, and possibly a bug in Windows that happened to cancel the BIOS bug. However very likely that incompetent hardware or BIOS vendors (I am pretty sure, it's a certain company known as "the largest BIOS vendor") first produced wrong BIOS behavior, and Microsoft seized the opportunity to exploit it instead of reporting the bug, so now buggy BIOS behavior is a de-facto standard, even though actual ACPI standard says otherwise.
Please note that this is just one more link in a very long chain of "bug for bug compatibility" implementation that ACPI support turned into. For example, Linux now identifies itself as Windows Vista (!!!) in ACPI scripts just to avoid broken tables that are given to it if it identifies itself as Linux. How the Hell any OS-dependent things ended up in the supposedly platform-independent ACPI standard in the first place, is a separate question, and very likely the answer is this: http://antitrust.slated.org/www.iowaconsumercase.org/011607/3000/PX03020.pdf
IIRC, perjury only applies to testimony and documents presented to a court. DMCA takedown notice, just like C&D notice, is directed toward a private party, so it's "only" fraud.
On the other hand, it can be considered to be a part of intimidation-based business practice, and with some luck and sufficiently annoyed judge fall under RICO.
I like shiny 3d windows -- I run Gnome 2 with Compiz, and I can assure everyone that Desktop Cube + 3D Windows + Sphere deformation mode is very shiny and very much 3D. It also allows me to bind "Rotate Left" and "Rotate Right" to side buttons on my mouse, so I can switch between 6 viewports on each of my three screens (each on a separate computer, with Synergy handling the input) by just moving mouse and pressing otherwise useless side buttons.
Guess what no longer works in Gnome 3, and is painfully slow on one of my computers in Ubuntu 11.10 with Unity? Compiz!
The systems I have mentioned are not virtual machines, they implement host partitioning -- a method for creating isolated environments that is vastly superior to virtualization. There should have never been any development of virtualization if those were widely known and used -- except, possibly, for running instances of Windows, because Windows provides no such functionality and is unlikely to ever gain it.
I personally think it's cute when a Linux admin pretends he has the first clue about other enterprise class UNIX systems.
Linux IS the result of modern Unix evolution, and currently a pinnacle of Unix and Unix-like OS development. I worked with enough commercial Unix systems to confirm that (and this is why I have a 3-digits ID -- I am old). Before Linux it was Solaris, but now it's Linux, all the TOG bullshit notwithstanding.
I started my career in native development, and only in the last say 5 years have I done almost exclusively Java based web development, mostly due to market demands and needing a paycheck.
Good! You are clearly incompetent, and now you can't shit up anything that matters for other people because no one will reuse your code.
Virtualization is a great solution for running shit operating systems.
With things like LXC, VServer and OpenVZ, there is absolutely no scenario when virtualization is a valid solution in a production environment, unless you have to run Windows-only software (and then this is your problem).
No, it's very much scientific statement. Science has absolutely nothing to do with scientists having any obligation to and test every claim and statements based on anything that is not reasonably derived from existing knowledge, theories and observations. Religion, along with other superstitions, is based on wild guesses, wishful thinking, ignorance and fraud. There is nothing valid of worthy of any discussion in it -- it's a matter of folklore and psychology.
And ban them from being in any position when their decision affect other people, regardless of what they own? It's certainly more of a problem in modern society, and it looks like there is suitable infrastructure already. Pretty please?
Thinkpad X220 works without any problems, and is fully supported.
X220t version is fully supported, too (I had to make a patch for cellwriter to fix window layout -- as far as I know, it's not applied yet) but I consider tablet mode impractical under any OS.

What is wrong with VMWare jockey's administering Linux VDIs?
Incompetence.
We all start somewhere.
That "somewhere" should not be a production environment that other people depend on.
Most likely it's hairyfeet or some other Microsoft shill in here.

That's like telling German Jews to go to Poland in the middle of WWII.
Why, yes, the comparison with Nazi is entirely appropriate here, so shut up about that.
at that rate even the less highly skilled industries would have to be paying close to 100 million or more per CEO?
They do.
It's hypervisors all the way down.
And one Windows desktop has to manage all of them.
Congratulations, you are a VMWare jockey, a Windows admin that pretends he can manage Linux servers!
Please kill yourself.

If a person can't make a living without bossing others around, his rightful place is in a mental asylum, prison or cemetery.
There are still people in Moldova?
And ban them from being in any position when their decision affect other people, regardless of what they own? It's certainly more of a problem in modern society, and it looks like there is suitable infrastructure already.
Pretty please?
...that all people must be forced to work at the threat of starvation when clearly there are sufficient resources for everyone already?
Right, the disgusting psychos who can't feel anything positive unless they cause visible pain to hundreds of millions people.
Seriously, bring back that thing.
