I think the issue of people dropping out in this day and age is more of a problem due to the expectations of what minimum education a person is expected to have. Nowadays the minimum might be approaching a college education while in 1972 the minimum might have been what a 16 year old might have gotten. If you blatantly assume that what you had at 16 in 1972 is equal to a college education today then even if the dropouts are less the impact and lack of education is more.
Linux is just as bad...I can't download any packages for 286 anymore....I was forced to upgrade to a 386 ages ago....how long before I have to buy a 486???? Some people can't buy new technology every ten years you know...
The middle east will own the solar age like they do the oil age now, they have the sand and the sun, and huge deserts to coat with panels. They're just waiting for the oil to go before they get started.
Firefox is not installed by default. IE7 will be. Microsoft make the OS, the browser and own MSN. This is clearly an issue because of their control over the OS. Even if Firefox specifically disabled MSN search from ever working it wouldn't be the same because they will never be the default browser installed on an OS that they own, and they don't own google either.
This hits the nail on the head because it's just what I thought. Golf is traditionally and probably still is an elitist game of sorts. Despite the fact that many slashdotters may play the game it remains a pastime of the elite. With expensive clubs built in picturesque environments, and with strict rules regarding dress and potential members. To have an article implying some sort of class division in an upperslass sport is laughable, especially on slashdot, a champion of the free and nominally priced software scene.
I'm not trolling because I'd love to put this setup together myself but one thing a lot of people overlook is the power and environmental considerations with setups like this. You've gone from one small dedicated firewall to one or two x86 boxes running 24/7. I'd love to see a report sometimes on whether it's better or not to reuse old hardware in these situations from an environmental perspective. As a slimmed down desktop for surfing yes, for two redundant firewalls...i wonder?
Does this mean that someone could just write a whole set of programs for accessing/modifying/deleting files etc. on windows as long as they were 16 bit applications and just host them somewhere for whenever they are at restricted computers, i.e. in a library or school.

Thank God for this, I keep running out of excuses to postpone the vasectomy.
That's why it won't work this time around, because the tv should be really telling your laundry machine to do the laundry, and I don't mean your wife.
sticky?
I doubt it, how are they going to stick an intel chip into a document format.

You're such a cunning linguist.

Just put holes in the packing boxes and your employer will be none the wiser
Thats the last time I'm typing ESC :wq....this is why I suffer through bad comments on Slashdot...cheers
Being unresponsible can lead to irresponding servers.
If you're in a virtual world, modeled on the real world, and there were no tv's, no billboards and no posters everywhere...would it seem real.

More CO2, better it stayed in space.

Newer chips from intel and amd will probably enable xen to work without modifying the OS.l ?articleID=167600468
