No, The Chinese need to find someplace to put the billons of people who will be born the century. So the Chinese will lead the way to mars to solve over population problems.
Seems to be common sense to me. No sense in broadcast vulnerability information to people who may use the information to exploit unpatched systems. (and are not smart enough to find the vulnerabilities themselves) The plan does allow limited public notice with a detailed release of the information after 30 days... I guess they assume that after 30 days all systems will be patched.
I got into Unix system administration by pure luck. I was in the Air Force and told my future boss I was into computers hobby. He asked if I would like be the administrator for the shop's computer systems.
So, with 3 years of experience and lots of training, I left the Air Force in July to make big bucks in the IT industry. That unemployment check is really paying BIG Bucks.
It must have been one of those internet universities I keep getting emails from that awarded her a degree with such a flawed argument.
With traditional photography, most of the photos get thrown out because they are either bad or uninteresting. Just like digital photography.
And I would argue that digital photography will preserve more from history as the images are easy to put into documents and publish by anyone with a computer and a camera.
I don't think it is nearly impossible to produce enormous but reliable software. I just think it takes longer then the short programming cycles marketing places on programmers. So what gets pushed out the door is always the best product the programmers can do.
What is inexcusable is releasing buggy software and not fixing the bugs on a timely basis. And then make you pay to buy the next version to fix the bugs.
I think linux make a fine desktop in a secure environment. I guess it would depend on what kind of work you needed the desktop to do. If I need a desktop to edit papers, read email, and brows the web; linux desktop works fine.

Linux is good as aDNS/Proxy/firewall server... How I don't see it making much headway as a Desktop. Windows is just too easy for most users to use.
That is why I have my computers rack mounted in a closet at home. Now if I can talk the wife into mounting an air conditioner in the closet.

Why not run VMware and just swith between operating systems?

What would be next, the ISP monitoring for expressing opposing political views?
The only people who should able to monitor is law enforcement in a criminal investigations with a court order.
