  1. Re:SEC Requirements on Barred from Red Hat IPO? · · Score: 2

    I didn't get the letter but ...

    Why are they trying to protect me?
    I'm over 21, and it's my damn money, if i want to throw it away on some stock certificates that might become useless, that should be entirely up to me..
    Secondly the only one suffering if I mess up with the IPO investment is me, i pretty much game my money away .. so what it's MINE

    rant off :-)

  3. Re:Stability? on Mozilla M7 - Ready for the War · · Score: 1

    really ?
    that's the same thing i tried .. guess what.. i'm typing this reply from M7 :-)
    i like it .. the edit->preferences doesn't work right for me .. it's all messed up .. oh well .. too bad i don't have the time to help

  4. I think he gets paid by M$ on Linux: Look before you Leap · · Score: 1

    "Linux is just beginning to be retrofitted for symmetric multiprocessing. "
    excuse me?
    "Windows NT Server Enterprise Edition ships with a full complement of Internet services, including Web, proxy, index, messaging, database, transaction and firewall services."
    To my knowledge you have to purchase all those features separately .. and the firewall "feature" that comes with M$ proxy is laughable..
    He mentiones the above when he argues for "Windows supporters still outnumber Linux supporters because Microsoft provides a better value proposition"
    He hasn't even looked at ANY Linux distribution, because I know that all of the services he mentiones come standard with all the dists. I tried.. more FUD if you ask me..

  5. more errors on PCMag's PCTech Reviews Linux Kernel 2.2 · · Score: 1

    Seems like they 'forgot' a couple of ports (maybe to make NT look less bad?) like the Corel netwinder (ARM), palmpilot (like someone else said), SGI's MIPS systems.
    And -plug- support for more is on the way .. see http://www.linuxce.org/ linux as a windows CE replacement on MIPS/SH3/(ARM maybe?) devices. -/plug-
    Their "table" said that NT4 supports IP masquerade, yah right.. win2K and the latest win98-osr2 ? support it (but who knows how good it's going to be).

    They also claim that linux 2.2.x adds Raid support .. wasn't it an improved version of 2.0.x ?

  6. Once again 4 intel ethernet cards on NOS Crossroads · · Score: 5

    And again they are using 4 intel ethernet adapters, probably configured to do some sort of striping/loadsharing/whatever .. i think that's what gives NT it's edge in every benchmark..
    I think there's going to be a lot more like this .. watch for the 4 ethernets :(

    It shouldn't be to hard to implement into linux, bind 1 ip to 4 ethernets and send through whichever one is free ..
