    Let's walk in the city, mate!

  2. Re:BBC Changed the article on BBC Links Linux To MyDoom · · Score: 1

    Well, they must be too busy with their own problem to pay enough attention to such a minor article.

  3. Why Linux Community? on More MyDoom Gloom · · Score: 1

    The worm runs only on Windows. I reasonably assume this is made by a Windows user(s) on Windows platform. What is the reason SCO asserts it was Linux community that made the virus? Is there any evidence in the worm that it was cross compiled on Linux?

    Why don't you play SimCity for Linux?

  6. Re:Why bother? Run OS X. on Installing Linux On The New Apple iBook · · Score: 1

    Why run Linux? Well, because it's tons faster. MacOS X is still a bit pokey, especially the finder.

    You can always kill Aqua. Of course, you can run X instead.

    Many of the apps have not been fully converted to use the new APIs as well, which also causes performance to degrade a little.

    This surely is a problem when you reimplement a whole system like Apple are doing from the outdate MacOS to OSX. You cannot really compalin about it because they are currently working on it.

    As far as wasting money on Apple hardware is concerned, the point is that the iBook is actually cheaper than any comparable Intel based laptop at this point, and is an all around great little box.

    Although I don't say iBook is the best, I can safely say that this is one of the best notebooks.

  8. Re:linux in Japan on Software In The Land That Time Forgot · · Score: 1

    If you develop a system with Japanese capability, the system is more flexible, not because you can use Japanese but also it proves the flexibility of the system. Isn't that the philosophy of Linux?

    I would like to add two things to Anonymous Coward.

    TRON is Japan-born OS which is embedded in many Japanese products. Probably most Americans have at least one TRON-embedded electronic appliance. I think Japan is going towards non-PC technology but rather trying to put what PC currently does in mobile phones and game consoles.

    In terms of the Internet connection, Japan is now working towards fiber optical lines. The service has started and it costs about 5,500 yen (about 55 USD?) per month.
