you want elegant design? Check out the b-2 stealth bomber.. and it has a low sticker price of 2 billion dollars. Even bill gates' mouth would drop to that price.
If you didn't like Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Electronic Arts has released the Medal of Honor: Allied Assault demo (133 megs) which is another game that uses id Software's state of the art quake 3 engine.
Didn't quake3 come out in 1999? That doesn't sound too state of the art to me.
Why is gnome still around? Everyone knows the best gui for linux is KDE. If people really want linux to move forward, they should support KDE. Linux desperately needs a standardized desktop. Pointless competition is only holding linux back.
In Genesis, God created water ON EARTH. It said nothing about mars. We all know that God created the sun after earth along with the stars and the planets, but it never mentioned God creating water on mars. Please stop with these lies.
I have to agree, the Japanese are very efficiant. That is why they make better cars, better computers, and generally better everything than lazy american workers.
I dunno about most of you, but I can live with a fan or two in my pc.
When computers were new, it took huge air conditioning systems just to keep the systems from breaking down. Just the maintenance costs were staggering. Nowadays, all we need is a little fan to keep the cpu cool.
The fbi is heading to your house right now (even if you don't live in the states) and they will destroy all your computers and execute your family within the next hour.
Computer advances are nothing compared to the human advances western society have made in the last 100 years.
100 years ago, most women wouldn't vote or work regular jobs. 50 years ago, our society was still very racist. 25 years ago, homosexuality was considered a desease.
It's not just in the area of computers have we made giant leaps forward, and many people take their own freedom of lifestyle for granted.
The short answer: yes. It is very difficult to make money with open source in this day and age. You can't easily market 'free software' and still make a profit. Just look at VA software (formally VA Linux), after several quarters in the red they were forced to shift away their foccus from selling linux oriented software. They even dropped 'linux' out of their name. Although linux is saving alot of companies tons of money, the only company that has had reasonable succes selling linux software has been redhat.
you should move to Canada, where piracy is not so bad. Since we pay an 'anti-piracy' tax on every cd-r burner and media we buy, it gives us the right to pirate whatever we want. I mean, we can't opt out of the anti-piracy tax, so one might as well take advantage of it.
Why do we bother sending people to space when there are so many problems on earth?... Terrorist attacks against America, terrorist attacks against Israel, unemployment, economy problems, homelessness, bad education, health care problems, etc...
wow! Spyware, kiddie pron, and illegal immagrants? Thank you for all these details, but don't be surprised if your post gets erased, it's just too much!

Couldn't the money being used to fund nasa be used more effective to fight off terrorists?

Agreed, france is nuts.
Russia isn't going to get ahead by DECLASSIFYING it's modern weapons.
What's the point of having something new if everyone knows what it is?
I find this a great development.. Seeing as you can do all this easily WITHOUT linux.
What next.. a toaster running linux?
It still cooks toast.. BUT BUT, IT RUNS LINUX!!

You lose your social life
now CmdrTaco can finally find the 'little boy pics' his dad took and posted to early 80's usenet.
At least europe isn't stupid enough to piss off a bunch of psychotic arabs.
Hopefully the US will learn soon, but I doubt it.
The symptoms of down syndrom include:
-Problems speaking english properly
-round deformed monkey-like skulls
-being pathetically stupid
people with down syndrome are often found:
-blindly roaming the streets
-working at mcdonalds
-walking around in pants that do not properly fit them, possibly wearing pants that are 10 sizes too large
Therefore you can conclude that most black males have down syndrome.

the difference is it's probably a hell of a lot cheaper than apple's crap.
