I guess you can't read right. My point was that it's my phone that rings when my friedns and family have computing problems. Most of them desire to have that damn IE Icon on their desktop, despite everyinthing I'e shown them. I use Gentoo, I wish I could convince my friends to ditch Win*./me shrugs.
And you would accept being forced to run windows, in order to let McAfee antivirus authenticate to your ISPs router, to be able to connect?
If I could trust the code to sit and run in the background and I (read as: the (L)users) don't need to do anything, then I don't see the problem. Don't take it to literal, I'm no coder, but, I trust OSS because there's millions of people that are that look at the code.
I'll give someone a few bucks to help rid the entire planet of the crap that's out there. I don't know about you, but I'm sick and tired of ridding my clients (and freinds, family, etc.) of all the bugs they get. If the ISP's can stop this crap at the routing level, man, I'm there. I'll happily pay the extra few bucks a month/year to make EVERYONE'S life easier.
Yes, I use Linux (Gentoo represent!), but what's your point? I got a great OS for 100% free (ok, ok, I bought the CD's for 1.4, but not the point), why would I not plunk down some cash to make not only *MY* "computing" experience prettier, but also all of those people that are fabled to exist on the other side of the window next to me?
Dinosaur was a flop? That fools me. I rather like that movie (and as does my son). The Toy Story movies are OK and all (I like 2 better, but maybe that's just me), but Dinosaur is a great film. Nemo is the only movie I can think of that's better (as far as this genre goes, I mean).
I really didn't like TTT, mostly because rather than actually doing the plot of the books, it was a 3 hour battle scene with only the slightest trimmings of the plot thrown in
I have to agree with this post.
TtT is easily in my top five favorite books (I've read the trilogy twice, and The Hobbit, man probably near 15 times - litterally - I'm still plodding my way through the Silmarillion, though...). It's a shame it's the shortest of the three books (my other favz are in the Dragon Lance series).
TtT the movie left me clueless. There's no real story there. OK, so we kinda know what happend to Pippen and Merry after the Oroki (sp?) took them. We know that Gollem/Smeagol is plotting something and that Aragon, Legolas and Gimli help save Helm's beep and Suroman now has a big problem on his hands. OK, well, that's maybe 15 minutes there. Half hour tops. Ummm... the thing is over two hours long now?
I guess the Gandalf part in Fangorn makesup for it?
I'm sick of add-ons and modifications to this ancient protocol. Can we please create a modern GUI protocol to allow us a modern desktop environment? Why are so many Linux users afraid of change?
XFree86 is HUGE and complicated. Too many libraries and conflicting interfaces and generally poor performance litter its userspace. When this is brought up, every X defender blames the windowing libraries and desktop environments. Look, it's 2003, can we please move beyond the 1998 era of Linux desktops and have something new and modern?
Just reposting since you'll probably get modded to hell...
It took me 80 bucks (US) to find out SuSE is crap (I bought 8.0 and found that I couldn't even update it since they broke some apps...). If I had to guess, I'd say Mandrake is the best KDE distro. I've vote for Gentoo, but Gentoo is whatever you make of it, there is no "default" desktop.

WTF am I suppose to do?
Well you could get a nVidia card and use their modules...
$ emerge -p xfree
...done!
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Hopefully, this is not going to happen.
WHAT?!?

So now we can answer that other age old question of how efficient is the flight of a wooden cow?
Or a giant wooden rabbit...
One part says:
Nintendo intends to launch a new machine in Japan next year
Then the next part says:
So it's pretty clear this is not just a mix-up regarding the new, China-only system.

I find myself wondering at the validity of that statement for about 5 seconds.

You must be new here...

OK, so I'e never been a good speller...

there's a 5 minute "interlude" included on the video itself which had me chuckling.
Cue the Holy Grail intermission music...

I almost hate to admit it, but she's REALLY damn cute.

Anyone got a torrent?
realize that rectangular monitors will be commonplace the time this massive project ships.
800x600 is a rectangular size
1024x768 is a rectangular size
They alredy are rectangular and have been for quite some time...
80x40 is a rectangular size...
even code samples would be left freely availible by this feature.
